"Restaurant was recommended to us, we arrived around opening time (19.00 h.) at the restaurant and needed to wait a bit. After about a quarter of an hour we were seated at a table outside on the terras near the restaurant entrance-door (we were offered no choice) without a view. So we didn’t see the spectacular view as described.Looking at the menu we chose the menu TER ou MER ( 22 euro ), with red house wine (côtes du Rhone).Le Presse au poisson au caviar de courgette with crumbled olive and parmesanThe dish looked great but was highly disappointing. The flavor very flat, not well seasoned , the crumbled part was hardly recognizable in taste.Melon au Porto dans tous son etatsThe melon (Cantaloupe) was good, with smoked ham and cream with porto.As main course we chose L’idée du chef’, which was veal. The meat , not seasoned at all, cooked ok, with as side dish pommes de terre gratinées and tomatoes with rosemarinFor dessert we chose the Charlotte. It was served in a glass, like a trifle.Biscuit (or cake?) was the first layer, then abricote compote and on top vanilla-bavarois. For us it was not a traditional charlotte with again a very flat taste, except for the apricots, which were delicious.Conclusion: very average food, glad we didn’t take the more expensive 40 euro menuThe waiter was very friendly, the spectacular view we only saw on the parking lot, but it would definitely not have made up for the dinner."

"owner super nice report quality incomparable price of excellent products. I wanted a sandwich to eat quickly before working it doesn't do it but instead I got chicken and tagliatelle forest sauce for only 9€ and more as I was pressed it makes it to me. The chicken was excellent the tagliatelle more than good and the sauce a pure tuerie all its with bread if you pass in the corner I really recommend it you would not surely be disappointed the best place to eat in the corner and the prices are more than honest and of very good quality. ps the guy is alone and even as his I was served in less than 20 minutes fast and efficient service."

"My wife and I had Sunday lunch here at this delightful restaurant in Talloires overlooking Lake Annecy and the marina. We had a superb table enabling us to watch the water sports, the boats gently bobbing at their moorings and one emergency landing hang glider!! Plus a vintage car visiting. The food is the star of the show here served by well trained staff who know what they are doing. To start we had a superb lobster Caesar salad, the like of which I have not tasted before. The dressing, subtle cheese hints, large pieces of lobster and freshness of the ingredients were absolutely top notch. For main course I had a grilled cockerel and my wife had Iberian pork. The cockerel was so tender it fell apart under the knife and had a superb sauce with it whilst the pork was of such fine texture it barely needed chewing. We finished off with a rich chocolate mousse of generous proportions. This is cooking at the high end and you won’t be disappointed with either the food or the view here. At €138 for two not including drinks, we thought it was excellent value for money. Oh, happily the hang glider pilot was ok, but it looked pretty dangerous for a few minutes."

"The weather was still nice in the evening so I sat on the terrace. It was the evening of the semi-finals of the ec so there was a good ambiance.I had a 'pancake'pizza. It's a pizza with a really thin bottom. I was doubting if I would like it. I had the one with tomato, eggs, avocado, olives, lemon and salmon. For a drink I had fresh orange juice.The pizza actually was really tasty! I was surprised. I would order it again. The orange juice was fresh so good.After that they gave me some drinking water without asking for it, nice!The only thing in val d'isere is that the got Swiss prices. It's really expensive. The 15,50 for the pizza was maybe a bit high but 6 Euro's for a normal glass of orange juice... That's like having a drink at plaza duomo in Milan. The staff is friendly, service is good!!"
