We came here for dinner on our first night in Chamonix, and chose to have the 3 course menu. We both had French onion soup, my husband had the chicken and I had the duck, then for desert he had Tiramisu and I had the chocolate option. The food and service were so good we stopped in for lunch the next day. We were both wet and hungry after hiking in the rain, so had the French Onion Soup again, this time with a garlic pizza and a couple of fabulous Irish Coffees, and the service exceptional. We came back again for dinner that night, this time my husband had the Beef bourguignon and I had the lamb, followed by a Tarte Tartine and a Crème Brûlée. Again we were not disappointed. I have no idea why there are negative reviews for this restaurant our experience was nothing but positive. Note the price paid reflects the fact that we chose a more expensive wine option.
