Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Chamonix-Mont-Blanc

03/11/2023: Great location for nearby climbs the service is friendly and the food is great and substantial!👍👍

13/10/2023: A perfect place for hikers with simple, tasty food, affordable prices and stunning mountain views and Chamonix. Highly recommended for visiting.

02/04/2024: Having frequented the establishment almost since its origins, the setting is perfect, in a chalet atmosphere with careful “mountain” decoration. A must-see is the fireplace in which bacon and sausages are smoked (look up a little after entering). When the weather permits, having coffee on the tables in the garden is magical in front of Mont Blanc. The small room at the back is cozy, and if it does not benefit from the view from the room on the garden side, it generally has the advantage of a more cozy atmosphere. Concerning the cuisine, I find that the last chef hired is quite consistent, with a touch of modernity. A downside in my opinion, but I won't take any stars off for that, is the recurring spicy seasoning in many (too many?) dishes. A little occasionally is fine, but it takes a backseat when one of the guests doesn't take well to it. On our last visit, on the menu there was seasoning or wasabi or chili for the choice of starters. It would have been nice to have one of the two less challenging choices. My partner liked it less than usual because of this. During another visit, it was the chili on the calf's head that was rather out of place in my opinion, while the sauce is still good, a sprinkling of chili on top seemed too much to me. That said, the quality of the cuisine is not to be outdone. The fish is cooked perfectly, seared on the outside and tender inside. The icing of the sauces is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the taste buds. The accompaniments are neat and go very well with the whole. As said, the new chef's touch of modernity brings daring and tasty proposals. Make no mistake, we are in the anteroom of the Michelin-starred restaurant at the Albert Premier. If the cuisine here is called country, the quality of the suppliers is undoubtedly up to the standards of a demanding clientele and a leading establishment. And the chef knows how to take remarkable advantage of it. Finally, the unmissable Vré or dessert buffet has a taste of "chez grandma" (also available for afternoon tea). The flan is particularly successful, we feel that it is generous, creamy, with a soft consistency. Tarts, tartlets, cakes of all kinds, the choice is so plentiful that you will have difficulty not finding what you are looking for. The fruits are not left out to finish on a lighter touch. And if you don't have a sweet tooth, the cheese cart will be there to provide a successful end to your meal. Added to the meal is a small plate of “free” appetizers to go with the aperitif, and sweet treats for coffee. The choice of wines is wide and at a range of budgets allowing you to easily find something to accompany these meals. A word for the staff, the "new" butler (the old one was rather grumpy in character, but he retired a few years ago, in favor of the current one) is welcoming and ensures his room efficiently. We see him piloting the service, like a conductor in a well-oiled machine. We find different people in the service "always", which is the sign of a good company, which takes care of its employees. For seasonal staff, even if we sense less knowledge of the house and the menu, recruitment is always done in favor of friendly waiters/waitresses who listen to customers. For a tight budget, but with the desire to discover this beautiful address, prefer a weekday lunch to benefit from the lunch menu. If you have the courage, and a huge hunger, try the “all pork menu”! A complete package is also available for the weekend. Otherwise the menu presents a varied range of choices for all tastes. In any case, remember to book, the address is known and popular. It's not uncommon to have the room full quickly, so plan ahead ;)

01/04/2024: Food was really good, the best lamb ever! The service, we were 4 people: my husband, our 13 years old son, my mother (89) and I. At the end of the dinner the waiter came and left the bill beside my mother (the oldest person at table). When my husband took the bill as he wanted to pay, the waiter looking at him and with surprised face he asked him if he wanted to pay for the entire table…

29/03/2024: Oh delicious food, everything was perfect, the crepes, the galettes, the burger, it was delicious. We didn’t order steak but the next table did and it look even better. And the service was excellent

05/03/2024: Excellent restaurant with very friendly staff and exceptional dishes

23/03/2024: This was an excellent dinner - delicious, homemade food. My favorite dishes were: fondue savoyard, foie gras, and moelleux au chocolat. The wine was fantastic (we had Gamay and Côtes du Rhône). The service was great and the venue is a cozy, alpine chalet.

18/03/2024: Good place to eat Savoyarde cuisine in Chamonix. Chat with server to have your plate served your style. Good fondue set and amazing desserts.

05/04/2024: Very good restaurant and a great stop just outside of Charmonix. View towards Agile Midi and Mont Blanc is awesome. Very good food, prices are reasonable and service is very nice (even with our language mix of German, English and French 😉).

30/03/2024: Top notch restaurant, tastefully decorated, great welcome, excellent fondue. The staff are attentive and adorable. Our waitress Lucile was adorable, very professional and welcoming. We will return to this restaurant with great pleasure. We recommend it 100%.

21/04/2024: This restaurant calls itself gourmet but is far from it. Above all, the atmosphere: in a gastro restaurant, we seek calm and a culinary experience. Here, we have a bar in the heart of the restaurant, with the regulars who loudly exchange their briefs at the counter, which gives more of a PMU feel than a cozy atmosphere. The dishes are ordinary, neither good nor bad. The bottle of water is almost 9 EUR! In short, an experience that I do not recommend even if the staff is pleasant.

17/04/2024: Very warm welcome, smooth service, very good dish

24/03/2024: Lovely and reasonably priced post ski food and service is the best. Everyone working there was lovely. If you’re skiing at Le Tour this is the place to go.

16/03/2024: Pleasant, helpful, efficient with orders, very good meal, excellent view of the Mont Blanc massif

27/03/2024: Beautiful area. The service is very friendly and the food delicious. I recommend

25/03/2024: An excellent welcome, a room with a magical view. Very comfortable bedding. But also a finely crafted cuisine, a perfect mastery of cooking. Harmonious pairings, juices and tasty reductions. Subtle seasonings. A truly beautiful culinary experience that goes perfectly in this setting. A service with great care, and relevant proposals with real great discoveries in terms of wines. In short, a very nice address in Chamonix!!!

25/03/2024: What a beautiful place for a break in the day! A very well placed viewing location. Like you’re in the clouds!

25/03/2024: Lunch is only available from 12 p.m. The waitress doesn't speak English and wasn't exactly polite. The food selection didn't blow us away, just the view is quite nice. We had higher expectations of a Panorama Restaurant!

24/08/2023: I found the restaurant closed. Anyone knows why? It was one of the best in the area…so sad

02/08/2023: Every time we pass through Chamonix or stay for a few days, it has always been "obligatory" to eat a fondue, for a few years we have enjoyed the food, the company and the atmosphere, both in summer and winter, it is sad for us that store closing, but life goes on, a hug and good luck in the new stage.

02/03/2024: Amazing experience, and a big shoutout to the mixologist Antoine who welcomed us with creative, never before drank cocktails in a cozy pre dinner lounge. The food and service were excellent. 10/10 would go again!

15/01/2024: Excellent, subtle, tasty, refined meal

05/04/2024: Very good, superb setting. Nice welcome, very fast and professional service. To come back with pleasure

03/04/2024: Well eaten, good time For the service, a great sommelier, with star service, but unfortunately, a less good impression for some of the other servers otherwise I would have given 5 stars

10/05/2024: A hearty meal, a mountain specialty in the heart of the fir trees, a remote place, comfort after the effort, I recommend, Kind regards Mr. Gros

26/04/2024: Summer 2023: An ultra-flowered chalet with a magnificent view from the terrace where you will also appreciate the very welcoming staff for a simple but good lunch, in the sun, and you will be amazed! A small souvenir and treat shop completes this charming place, don’t hesitate to stop there, you won’t be disappointed!

04/04/2024: Super friendly, warm atmosphere and hearty meals. A little pricey but worth the detour. Let's have a pierrade for 2 with Le gratin savoyard....excellent. And the gourmet coffee was just.....gourmet A must-try during your stay in Cham

02/04/2024: The crepe was delicious. One of the best crepe i ever had. Must try it is highly recommended. Hot chocolate was tasty
