2*? Next time I return I expect this perfection of fine dining to have garnered a third star.I travel in France as a native for work and to visit all my french friends so I've been to a large amount of touted restaurants from Paris to Michel Bras in the middle of nowhere near Laguiole. I have passed a number of weeks as a native and then taking time for resting and exploring. First I will say that speaking French usually gives me an advantage when it comes to most restaurants in the way we are seated and treated. That is France. When it comes to this restaurant, everyone is treated with the upmost perfection of service and a warm feeling of sensing that you are truly 'welcome'. The staff is...
My husband and I had reservations to visit this restaurant while in Chamonix and were excited to try out the Michelin starred restaurant. We walked from our hotel and followed the signs toward the restaurant, at which point we saw an employee, who took us inside to the maitre d' and told them our names. I was a bit surprised at the decor, because it was quite rustic, but we were led to our table. A moment later, another employee came to our table and asked if we were supposed to be at the Michelin restaurant, we replied yes, and they apologized and led us out to the other restaurant! A completely different place with cool, modern decor and a very upscale feel. What a difference!The meal was...
en 2016 c'était pour un déjeuner.Cette fois pour un dîner, notre choix s'est porté sur la formule "petite fête gourmande", entrée, poisson, viande fromages et desserts.Avant cela une bouteille de blanc de Loire servie dans le jardin devant un panorama dont on ne se lasse pas.Sommelier très agréable et connaissant dans les moindres détails la propriété du vin servi.Ensuite passage à table, la salle toujours aussi bien tenue et TOUT le personnel à l'écoute et très sympathique.Le foie gras et truite, le poisson, et le pigeon, tout était succulent.La dessus une bouteille de Loire rouge, superbe et léger.Le chariot de fromages, tout simplement incroyable (on ne voit plus cela ou très rarement), f...
We are pleased that our busy schedule during a short stay in Chamonix allowed us to squeeze in a lunch at this centennial establishment, something we have wanted to do for months. An oasis of peace not far from centre town. The dishes are innovative (e.g. the first course of the foie gras served two ways, and many of the starters) and excellent. You may have had better pigeons or sweetbreads served at other multi-Michelin-star restaurants, but the impeccable service here made the whole experience truly delightful. Our two-year old baby had his most refined pasta dish ever, and participated fully in the tasting of the dessert chariots! It should have at least 2 stars, and is pretty good value...

We have been to Albert 1er at least 20 times in the last 10 years. It never disappoints.The food is obviously outstanding. Very refined. Some could say "relatively classic french gastronomy". My impression is that the level of creativity has been increasing over the years. It is THE place to go in Chamonix for a great lunch or dinner. Prices at lunch are rather reasonable. The sommelier always has great recommendations. Service is perfect.
Dopo un po' ritorno ...Spettacolo ... Cucina prossima alla terza stella .., servizio impeccabile Carta dei vini da sogno .Poi?????Magnifico ristorante in chamonix
Je pense que l'accueil téléphonique est à revoir, le sentiment de gêner la standardiste est vraiment très désagréable.
This was as faultless an experience as you can get in a restaurant The food, service and wine was impeccable.

This 2 Michelin star restaurant was as good as some 3 star's we have dined at.
Albert 1er is by far the premier restaurant in Chamonix.
