Les meilleurs restaurants en Le Grand-Bornand

01/04/2024: Good food but service not up to par. First the good news. We tested the Confins des Sens this Easter Monday with a unique and special lunch menu for €75. The results are at the level of expectations: good classic cuisine with a zest of creativity (very first experience of the Bescoin Savoyard brioche accompanying the very good foie gras, veal cooked at low temperature tasty and particularly tender, classic but tasty chocolate dessert, menu of rich and interesting wines...). So on the kitchen side, great performances despite some slightly bland flavors (the arctic char starter) and the somewhat modest portions (but that's normal for a tasting meal with two starters, two main courses and two desserts!) . Not so good news now. Decoration ordinary and without any particular charm: the floor in large red terracotta tiles and the summer terrace in slabs of washed gravel look cheap, we don't really know if we are in a restaurant that wants to be gourmet/sophisticated, or a "restaurant for friends” without fuss. Positioning to be clarified. The service, however, is below our expectations: the two people in charge are not unpleasant, just not attentive to details: if the arrangement of the table does not suit you, you are told "do as you wish" and we leaves you to fend for yourself; they seem to be watching your plate to clear it within 30 seconds of finishing it; we practice a zest of familiarity ("are you from the area?" or, when the bottle of wine is finished, "well! that's done!), we don't know the detailed content of the menu: to our question about what the "bescoin" is that we didn't know: "I don't know, I'm going to find out"; we open the box of tea bags for your neighbor 5cm from your face; we lie down almost on the table in front of you to pick up an object placed on the opposite side, etc. A little training for service staff seems essential to take a step forward...

28/03/2024: A feast for the eyes and taste buds the discovery menu was delicious special mention to the foie gras soup 😱 The service enhances the creations of the kitchen we highly recommend!! 😋

18/03/2024: A warm welcome, excellent cuisine, impeccable and attentive service, a beautiful place with good background music. Perfect for a romantic dinner.

16/03/2024: Awesome ! It is the best restaurant in Grand Bornand. The homemade cuisine was very refined and delicious! The smiling and pleasant staff :)

12/03/2024: We dined with porcini mushroom fondue, accompanied by a green salad and a charcuterie board. We enjoyed ourselves, the quantities were generous. I really appreciated that the salad was fresh, which is not often the case at resorts, so thank you very much! For dessert, there wasn't much room left so we had a génep and a scoop of ice cream. The staff was very friendly and the digestive menu is very original since it is on a magnum of Génépi :-)

07/03/2024: Top staff Savoyard specialties to enjoy without moderation

05/04/2024: We ate an old-fashioned Savoyard raclette, very hearty, very tasty, no problem. We had a little Alsatian wine which was very good. The weak point would be the desserts which we found uninteresting. I had a poached pear and in general it's a dessert that I enjoy when the pear is poached in red wine. There I had the impression that the pear was poached in hot water. My friend had a blueberry fromage blanc, she didn't get the taste of blueberries and the fromage blanc was really uninteresting, very bland. A strong point on the presentation of the desserts, too bad the taste does not follow. Give your desserts a little something extra and I promise you that you are one of the best restaurants in Grand-Bornand. Sincerely

25/03/2024: I would have liked to give just one star just to read the boss's response. His responses to previous negative comments made me howl with laughter. I looked for negatives in the evening but nothing, nada! Everything was perfect, the welcome, the service, the meal, everything. Oh no, the bill at the end... it could have been free anyway :-)) Congratulations again for everything and maybe see you another time.

07/03/2024: Great resort restaurant, country meal, simple, authentic, efficient

04/03/2024: Excellent restaurant, good food

03/04/2024: Always warm welcome by the owner and his charming waitresses but today 3/042024 not in relation to the service and the quality but disappointed by a lack of civility and respect beyond 60% of a group of (pagu) descended from the mountain on market day who did not stop bawling during the meal. a table of two and us of three tried to go there on Wednesday except 3 people apologized anyway which we greatly appreciated while another even launched an invective towards us. Poor citizen, more to be pitied than blamed. We will return there as well as the 2 other people with whom we were able to speak and who have been coming for a long time but no longer on Wednesdays Gilles Yvette and Michelle

10/03/2024: Succulent pizzas, impeccable service and also good homemade dishes as well as local products. Thank you to all the team for these good times and see you soon ☺️(Arnaud, Julie, Seb)

02/04/2024: Very warm place, very tasty cuisine and perfect service (thank you Nicolas), an unforgettable evening

12/03/2024: A romantic dinner, with a Savoyard and Italian-inspired menu, very good cuisine, attentive and very kind staff, the possibility of having a drink at the bar then going to the restaurant next door is very nice, especially since we had some live music that evening.

30/03/2024: Meal for a table of 17 people. A pleasant meal with good products. However, no commercial action on the part of the establishment, on a total bill of around €700 despite a few tense poles on our part. Obviously, nothing obliges them to do so but unfortunately we are locals and not tourists on vacation, which personally will not make me return to this restaurant.

30/03/2024: A nice moment but the commercial side is not there!! a note at 700€ no action. Meal however very good

25/03/2024: A victim of its location, this restaurant is crowded and the cuisine is average. Ugh!

13/03/2024: Very good restaurant, does not force consumption and even advises us. We had eyes bigger than our stomachs and the waitress advised us I recommend. Plus a magnificent view of the slopes.
