La Buche Croisee

Top lunch place on the slopes; have been here many times. bit chaotic when busy but busy for a very good reason- the quality of the food. location is wonderful but take care before dining outside because when the sun passes behind the mountain opposite the terrace it suddenly goes cold. very cosy inside. Good beer, good food. Burger is unforgettable but go there hungry as portions are big.

I went in and ordered hot chocolate and a plate of cheesy chips. While waiting I was watching the open kitchen area where chefs were eating whilst preparing food without washing there hands which is a hygiene issue. The chips once the had come where very greasy and burnt. After Eating some of the chips and finishing my drink the waiter cleared them away. Not even 2 minutes later the guy who runs the place (scruffy grey hair and beard) comes over is like are you eating? I explained that I had just eaten and he was accusing of me being rude and argumentative because I simply explained I have just finished and was sorting myself out. He then got outright rude demanding I left after just spending over €20 euros. NO WAY TO TREAT A PAYING CUSTOMER PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO TO A DIFFERENT RESTAURANT.

I think it's fair to attribute most of the poor reviews to this cosy little restaurant getting overwhelmed at busy times. We got there late on a busy day. We waited a while but they did fit us in without a booking and served us in time to get down the mountain.. Burger was great! And amazing fries. Rest of the food great too and service was good. Everyone was working very hard. It was a little messy but that's understandable under the circumstances

Returned time and time again loved their Steak Tartare but as of December 2021 they’ve taken it off the menu. Not sure we’ll keep making the journey. It was always nice to have something that wasn’t cheese (or a burger). Bring back the Tartare please

Top frame, breathtaking view salty addition but good kitchen. digestive offered provided you are in a group! Forget if you're alone! Nice personal.
