I am a bit surprised by the mixed reviews as I personally had an excellent experience. The vaulted room is superb, not dated, it does not need to be contemporary everywhere. The service is indeed a bit old fashioned but passed well with the whole experience, up to the removal of the silk with the special tool which was a bit over the top and made us burst in laughter. The food is absolutely excellent, the service very professional and attentive. It is rare to find these days but a delight when it happens. We had great foie gras and I personally had one of the best if not the best lamb I have ever had. It was juicy, baked in a pastry spiked with poppy seed and an absolute delightful combination in mouth. Dessert was very good. Portions were generous, if not too big, but we were told that they need to cater to hikers who need their fuel. We only hiked up and down Briancon so did not need much, but would have welcomed this whole gargantuesque meal had we done so.The owner came twice during the meal to check upon us, so did the young chef at the end. There were only 3-4 tables as we were out of season, but we did not feel lonely nor overwhelmed by idle service staff. Overall an excellent experience I can only recommend to anyone in the region.
