In the heart of Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise, Le Monal Restaurant embodies generous, sincere mountain cuisine deeply rooted in high-quality local produce. The dining area is divided into several spaces. The caveau, intimate and cosy with its crackling fireplace, invites quiet conversation and long, lingering meals. The bistro dining room, more lively, hums with exchange and conviviality. Two atmospheres, one shared generosity in the kitchen. Every dish reflects the taste of homemade cooking. From finely reimagined classics to sharing dishes, the menu expresses the historic soul of this house.

Must-Try Dishes and Specialties
Signature dishes: veal sweetbreads, frogs’ legs & Adeline’s Paris-Brest
Two signature dishes have built Le Monal’s reputation: veal sweetbreads and frogs’ legs. These classics are treated with the care they deserve, resulting in versions that make guests want to return. For something sweet, Adeline’s Paris-Brest, our pastry chef’s creation, has become a destination dessert in itself — another reason to extend the meal.
A restaurant with character in the heart of the Savoy mountains
Lovers of beautiful bottles
Wine cellar: over 100 references to accompany the mountains
For wine lovers, Le Monal’s cellar is a destination in its own right. More than 100 carefully selected references are featured — from renowned estates to more confidential discoveries found only here. A curated selection designed to enhance each dish and accompany the mountain specialties on the menu, from the first glass through to dessert.
Le Monal Bar: a living place in the Tarentaise Valley, after skiing or the mountain passes
As evening falls, Le Monal bar comes to life. Passing guests, regulars, and locals all gather over a drink and sharing platters in a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere. Much more than a hotel bar, it is a natural meeting point: skiers returning from the slopes in winter, hikers still in their trail shoes, bikers and cyclists who have spent the day riding the Alpine passes in summer all cross paths here.
Rooftop & musical evenings: Friday nights in summer in Savoie
As soon as the warm season arrives, Le Monal’s rooftop becomes one of the most popular gatherings in Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise. Every Friday evening in summer, a musical event is held here, set against a panoramic view of the Savoyard peaks. A summer ritual that regular guests look forward to all year long.
