Local Tips

At lunchtime, most restaurants offer well-priced 'Plat du Jour' (dish of the day) with locally-sourced meat, potatoes and seasonal vegetables. Booking in advance is highly recommended, especially during peak season and for high-end establishments. Val d'Isère's mountain restaurants provide sun-soaked terraces for lunch and cosy interiors for dinner. Free bus service ('Train Rouge') connects different areas, making restaurant access convenient throughout the resort.

International Cuisine

Pizza and Italian restaurants are widespread; Japanese fusion is available at Matsuhisa (Hotel Airelles featuring Nobu); French brasserie and contemporary European cuisine are common throughout the resort
