It was our first night in Chamonix and we wanted a nice meal so we made a reservation at…read moreatmosphere. It was very good!
Here are a few few things we noticed:
- When I made the reservation, I had seen a picture in Yelp that made it look like the outdoor seating was in a front patio but beware because that is the patio of another restaurant and the entrance to Atmosphere is next to it. While it was comfortable inside, specify the outdoor Terrace if at all possible because that is along the river and is very beautiful.
- My wife ordered from one of the two fixed price menus, but I decided to order à la carte, which is definitely more expensive.
- My wife started with the Alpine salad, which was very delicious. I got the French onion soup, which is supposedly one of their specialties, but I just found it average.
- For a main courses, I got the beef tenderloin with seared fois gras... it was amazingly! My wife got the hotbox cheese and liked it well enough.
- For her, the highlight of the meal was probably the blueberry tartlet. I got a trio of sorbets which were also very fresh and good.
- Service was very very good. And the atmosphere is cozy and warm inside.
Bottom line: Dining at Atmosphere was a great way to start our vacation!
