Perfect place to have lunch - high season or weekends booking is a must! - the view is exceptional, the food is too & is only being mentioned in second place because the view just tips it - & having lunch while being passed by paragliders takes the experience to a new level...... an absolute must if your in the Annecy area.

Amazing view of lake Annecy even though it had just started raining. Sat outside under cover - just for a drink, and they were packed inside with crowds of people having lunch but the service to the few people braving the elements was efficient and friendly. We will be back when we can see more and maybe stay here as it is the perfect location.

visited with family (including 2 kids) for sunset dinner. Food and service was decent but you are paying for location and view (which was amazing). My kids had their first ever fondue here and it was a decent quality and interactive fun while the sun went down. A couple of good deserts (and a blanket!) rounded things off. A big highlight in addition to the sunset views was watching the parasailers take off and pass close by the restaurant terrace. All round a nice experience and good food.

A very cosy place with traditional Savoyard food. When the weather is nice there is a great terrace with a beautiful view. Unfortunately when we went it was raining, but the indoors is also very cosy. Not many options for those with lactose intolerance, but the entrecôte with fries was excellent. The desserts look delicious as well, especially the Cafe gourmand! Right next to the place is a car parking, and hiking trails pass by this place as well. Dogs are accepted inside if well behaved!

The best place in the area to have dinner outside, because the view of the valley is simply amazing. The service is friendly and most of all fast. The food is very tasty (I had the tuna tartare) and not overly complicated, nor is the menu. It is recommended to make a reservation during the high season, although they could luckily just still seat us without one. It's a great experience to have dinner while one paraglider after the other flies over your head!

The breathtaking scenery outside the restaurant is just like a picturesque painting. The deep blue colour of the curved lake is a heavenly sight. It has a romantic atmosphere for dining our of an ordinary experience. You need a car to drive up the place.

Recently visited again after a disappointment in September 20. Great improvement! The place has been done up and looks gorgeous and cozy; the food was very good, the salad was perfect! And the prices are very reasonable for the area which is definitely a great plus in such a special location !! The service was friendly which is not guaranteed in France ! it was a quiet and cold week day evening, which might have helped! But I will happily recommend this restaurant to friends and clients again! I hope the management will make sure they have at least a English speaking member of staff, a must in our area !

The whole experience was wonderful. We booked a table for 6 people without any troubles(recommended) they were fully booked on the night. Our table couldn’t have been better positioned, the staff was extremely attentive, efficient and friendly. The combination of an aperol spritz and the view is superb. The menu is not massive but the options are very interesting.. Food was plenty, fresh and delicious. Considering the position and the astonishing views the prices are justified. My only suggestion is the way you settle the bill, joining a long queue seems to me a bit odd, better to pay at the table.
