We've been to this restaurant a few times and sometimes the food has been stodgy, with the same accompaniments served for all of the main courses i.e little thought given to which vegetable or side dish is suited to the fish, meat, poultry or vegetarian main course. This visit I was completely taken aback by the quality of the food, the thoughtful combination of flavours and textures and the presentation. We had the €40 menu (amuse bouche, starter of quail with chocolate-morel sauce or foie gras, mains of which we both chose the lamb rack with pesto sauce; course of cheese platter or soft white cheese with black currants, and then desert). There is a wide choice of options on the menu (especially for the deserts – we had vanilla ice cream with quince liqueur). The quail starter was particularly good with an interesting combination of flavours. The lamb was perfectly cooked, tender and enhanced by the pesto sauce. The accompaniments were well suited to the lamb (polenta and steamed vegetable mix). The vanilla ice cream was good. The quince liqueur was pleasant but did not taste very much of quince, as I’d hoped. All in all an excellent meal; great ambience with décor that is typical of the region and is somewhere between skiing, farm house, natural history and teddy bear museums. The staff are helpful and friendly – definitely worth a visit.
Very good French restaurant with local and tasty food. At lunch you can get a local menu for 16 Euros including a starter ( we had a salad with backed roblochon- local cheese) a main dish ( rabbit cooked with mustard and vegetables) and a dessert (creme brûlée). Otherwise "a la carte" you can get an excellent entrecôte!Just try it!
We went there twice, didn't have to book but it got very busy after about eight.Food was good. My wife liked the scallop risotto for me the lamb was good.Service was a bit slow and it three attempts to get them to bring us some water.Overall, a good Atmospheric experience, not cheap but not overpriced
This was my third trip here. Marvellous rustic old building with interior décor to match. Reasonable prices for great food. Extensive menu with traditional regional favourites inc Raclette and Tartiflette. I opted for the Raclette meleted cheese dish with charcuterie. devine. Good, attentive service.
