This newly renovated restaurant offers French cuisine at reasonable prices. They have a large wine selection, but then again this is France it is to be expected. I ordered the fried perch and French fries followed by the lemon tart. I enjoyed my meal and loved being able to view the lake while I dined. If your in town take note this place is a sure bet.

Delicious and cozy meal in Annecy…read more I was so glad we found this restaurant last minute. We called ahead and were able to reserve for a party of 5 for dinner. The staff were nice and welcoming. The interior was cozy and felt like you were having dinner and a hip friend's house. They cooked their Fois Gras well, it was even better than I expected. The gazpacho soup was refreshing and I was delightful surprised by the savory sorbet in the soup. My duck was delicious. The sauce was dark, rich, and oh so satisfying. I'm upset I didn't have room for dessert! If you are in the area and looking for a reliable and satisfying meal I would definitely recommend eating here!

The proprietor-chef, Evan, is of Irish-Welsh origin and his great specialty is an Angus steak from Scotland aged to perfection, salted just so and cooked on the open fire that also heats the dining room. Everything else in the menu focuses on local cheeses and other elements of Savoyard culinary genius. Our favorite appetizer, which can also serve as a lighter main dish, is the Tarte aux Trompettes de La Mort, a magnificent baked torte made with local wild mushrooms. The Reblochonette is a fabulous melted cheese experience. Evan's special at the time of our two visits was a superb chicken breast stuffed with basil and pine nuts on a bed of spinach, which in turn was on a bed of whipped creamy potatoes. We tried all three deserts and loved them all: a dense chocolate fondant, a light bread pudding, and a creamy lemon posset. Pricing is very reasonable for the quality, and the location is a destination in itself. Well worth the trip. The only caution is no credit card use, since the refuge is off the grid for electricity (solar only). The phone was working only intermittently, so call ahead to tell them you're coming and leave a message if no answer. The restaurant's website will have updated phone numbers and menu details.
