The Top 65 Restaurants Near Anova


  1. A French-Australian couple runs this riverside restaurant in Briançon, where the Guisane keeps things cooler than the coast. She handles the kitchen, turning out modern seasonal plates where Mediterranean instincts show up in unexpected places, and he looks after the room and the wine. The cooking is precise without being stiff, and the crowd tends to be people who drove up from somewhere warmer and are pleasantly surprised to find a meal like this at altitude.


  2. A wood-lined dining room in the center of the village, run by a chef with serious fine-dining pedigree who has chosen to cook seasonal mountain produce rather than perform with it. The Michelin Guide gives it a Bib Gourmand, and the menu reads like a love letter to whatever's good nearby: local goat's cheese, long-cooked pork, herbs from up the road. Modern French cooking, unhurried and precise, at prices that don't require a second mortgage.


  3. Rank 4. Le Chazal

    Modern French

    A converted sheepfold high in a hamlet, with the original mangers still on the walls and old meat hooks overhead, makes for an unexpectedly atmospheric set-menu restaurant. The chef weaves local trout, foraged herbs, and organic saffron into multi-course dinners that also find room for lobster and wild turbot, which is to say the mountains don't keep ambition out. The Grand Marnier soufflé has become something of a signature.



  4. Sitting at 2,345 meters in the Alps, this Michelin-starred fine dining room inside Hôtel Pashmina has a legitimately dramatic view to compete with. The chef keeps the cooking grounded in specifics, local mushrooms, Bresse chicken, venison, rather than drifting into the generic luxury-hotel register that altitude seems to encourage. The room is designed to impress, and the kitchen seems determined to match it on its own terms.


  5. Rank 7. L'Artémisia

    Modern New American

    A hotel restaurant in Val-Cénis that skips the mountain-lodge greatest hits and runs a surprise menu built around whatever the kitchen found that day. Arctic char, Termignon blue cheese, Aubrac Wagyu, wild herbs foraged from the surrounding slopes: the menu shifts, so you eat what the season hands over. The room is unfussy, the kind of place where the food clearly received all the decorating budget.





  6. A courtyard tucked behind Pinerolo's porticoes leads to an early twentieth-century building where Christian Milone runs a Michelin-starred trattoria that takes its Piedmontese roots seriously. Two tasting menus divide the room: one revisits regional classics, the other lets single ingredients carry entire courses. Much of the produce comes from the kitchen garden out back, and a chef's table overlooking the pass is available for the committed.


  7. Rank 12. Il Ciabot

    Piedmontese



  8. Three generations of the same family run this two-Michelin-star restaurant in the French Alps, with the patriarch still out picking herbs and berries each morning. The cooking leans into mountain terroir: lake fish, local cheese, and foraged ingredients shaped into something creative but legible. A chalet next door handles the sleeping, which means you can order the cheese course without calculating the drive home.


  9. Rank 15. Acaja

    Contemporary Italian


  10. Rank 16. Le P'tit Polyte

    Modern New American

    A cosy, wood-beamed dining room inside a family-run ski chalet hotel in Les Deux-Alpes, where the cooking leans modern and the vegetables are given as much thought as the proteins. The menu reads as carefully considered rather than showy, and the sommelier steers the wine list with enough personality to make the recommendations feel like suggestions from someone who's actually tasted everything.


  11. Five tables only, which means Yannick Alléno is cooking for what amounts to a dinner party. This is a fine dining tasting menu inside a ski hotel in Courchevel 1850, and it holds three Michelin stars. The Savoie larder drives the menu, but the sauces, built through extraction and fermentation over what sounds like years of obsession, are the quiet argument for the whole evening.


  12. Rank 18. Alpage

    Alpine French

    Fine dining inside Hotel Annapurna, high up in Courchevel 1850, with bay windows that make the Alps feel like wallpaper you ordered on purpose. The chef works Savoyard tradition through a modern lens, pulling from local terroir in ways that feel grounded rather than showy. An open kitchen keeps things from tipping into stiff formality. It holds a Michelin star, and the service runs attentive enough to match.


  13. Rank 19. L'Altitude

    Alpine French


  14. Rank 20. L'Ekrin by Laurent Azoulay

    Provençal-Savoyard French

    The crockery was made by a ceramist from Thônes, which tells you something about how seriously Laurent Azoulay takes the details. This Michelin-starred fine dining room inside a luxury ski chalet marries Provençal instincts with Savoyard ingredients, the chef moving between a full-bodied meat jus and a saffron rockfish soup with equal confidence. A vegetarian tasting menu rounds out the offer for anyone who'd rather skip the escargots.


  15. A two-Michelin-starred fine dining room inside a plush Alpine chalet, where the chef trained in Provence and hasn't forgotten it. The cooking weaves between mountain ingredients and southern French instincts, with enough edge and playfulness that the desserts tend to draw a small gasp. Courchevel being Courchevel, nothing about the room is understated, which makes the chef's willingness to take risks feel like the most interesting thing on the mountain.


  16. Rank 22. Le Sarkara

    Modern French

    A two-Michelin-star tasting restaurant inside a Courchevel palace hotel, where pastry chef Sébastien Vauxion runs what he calls "cuisine pâtissière," a vegetable-forward creative menu built on precision, spice, and technique borrowed from the pastry kitchen. Nothing is labeled vegetarian, which might be why no one complains. Tea pairings stand in for wine if you want them, and the service is the kind that's formal without being stiff.


  17. Four tables, fifteen covers, one sitting: Sylvestre Wahid runs this two-Michelin-starred fine dining room inside a Courchevel ski resort like a private dinner party he happens to be cooking. The open kitchen is the show, and the chef's trick is pairing French seafood, lobster and crab, with Pakistani spices, pickles, and lentil dahl in ways that shouldn't work as neatly as they do. Après-ski has rarely involved this much daring.



  18. Thick pile carpets, coffered ceilings, and smoked-glass table tops set the tone at this fine dining room inside a Courchevel hotel. Stéphane Buron, a Meilleur Ouvrier de France, builds his menus around three threads: childhood memories, Savoyard terroir, and Japan, which is a more coherent combination than it sounds. A Michelin star. The cheese trolley loaded with mountain varieties arrives like a reasonable argument for skipping dessert.


  19. Rank 26. Simple et Meilleur

    Savoyard French

    Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the mountains while the room fills with the smell of Reblochon fondue, which tells you most of what you need to know. This alpine restaurant in Saint-Martin-de-Belleville leans into sharing plates of Savoyard classics, cold cuts, regional cheeses, and the occasional venison bourguignon with polenta. A ground-floor deli sells local provisions to take home. The Michelin Guide has awarded it a Bib Gourmand.


  20. Tableside carving and flambées keep things theatrical at this fine dining room inside a luxury ski hotel, where the terrace looks straight out onto the slopes. The cooking leans regional French with a few wider detours, and the cheese course comes from a Meilleur Ouvrier de France affineur, which is a fun fact to drop on whoever you're dining with. Dress for the mountain, not the après.



  21. Rank 29. Le 80

    Traditional French


  22. Rank 30. Le Farçon

    Modern Mediterranean

    You can ski straight to the door, which sets the tone for a mountain restaurant that takes itself more seriously than its access route suggests. Le Farçon holds a Michelin star and earns it with a menu that moves between Savoie, Piedmont, and the Mediterranean without feeling like a geography lesson. Golden-crusted pies, fragrant sauces, the odd nod to Sicily: the chef finds a thread and pulls it through.


  23. A former ski-resort cinema turned modern restaurant, with a lounge bar on the ground floor for snacks and a warming drink, and the dining room arranged around an upper gallery of mezzanine tiers. The menu runs lunch and dinner daily, leaning into the kind of refined mountain cooking where sweetbreads are a house signature. The room has a theatrical past that the cooking seems to take as a challenge.




  24. Rank 34. La Nicchia

    Piedmontese


  25. The carrello dei bolliti, a trolley of boiled meats wheeled to your table, sets the register immediately: this is old-school Piedmontese dining in a warren of small wood-ceilinged rooms hung with vintage photos. Handmade pasta and a rabbit stew piled with Carmagnola peppers anchor the menu. In summer the garden fills up, all green plants and good intentions. Somewhere your grandmother would nod approvingly, assuming she was from Cavour.


  26. Rank 36. La Saulire

    Savoyard French


  27. A former 15th-century stronghold in a mountain hamlet at 600 meters, converted into a Michelin-starred restaurant with stone walls and picture windows framing the Belledonne range. Only five round tables fill the dining room, which keeps things intimate in the way that makes you feel like you've stumbled onto someone's well-kept secret. The chef works local alpine produce, garden herbs, and the occasional exotic flourish into creative, carefully composed menus. Guestrooms available if you'd rather not drive back down.



  28. A tucked-away Piedmontese restaurant where the menu opens with a section called "Lenitivi," small bites designed for aperitivo pairing that reward slow reading. The kitchen works in a modern, farm-rooted style, reinterpreting regional produce with enough technique to notice but not so much that the food stops tasting like itself. A social table seats up to six for something more communal, and the service keeps pace without hovering.


  29. Rank 40. Ursus

    Alpine French

    The dining room is meant to look like a forest, and it mostly succeeds: slim trunks divide the tables into little clearings, a foliage canvas covers the ceiling, and walnut wood runs underfoot and across the tabletops. This Michelin-starred fine dining room, inside a hotel in the Val-Claret resort, takes its name from the brown bear still wandering these Alps. The chef trained under Jean-François Piège and now turns mountain herbs, game, and freshwater fish into creative Alpine cooking that follows the seasons closely. The cheese trolley is entirely Alpine.


  30. A fine dining room tucked into a ski-in chalet hotel right on the Face de Bellevarde run, all exposed stone, warm wood, and mirrors that catch the mountain light. The chef holds a Michelin star and keeps the cooking clean and precise, letting good ingredients do the talking without overworking them. The young front-of-house team moves with real enthusiasm, and the sommelier treats Savoie wines like a personal mission.



  31. Rank 43. Achillée

    Regional French

    A chef who traded a Courchevel kitchen for the valley below now runs this rustic bistro in Bozel, built around sharing plates and whatever the surrounding farms and hillsides are giving up that week. The cooking is rooted in the region, hearty and unfussy, with foraging filling the gaps between suppliers. The room feels like somewhere a local would actually eat, which in the Alps is rarer than it sounds.


  32. Rank 44. La Table de Jeanne

    Savoyard French


  33. Christophe Aribert's two-Michelin-star restaurant sits inside an old house pressed against a wooded hillside in the spa town of Uriage, and the mountains aren't just scenery. Herbs, roots, freshwater fish, and flowers from the kitchen garden find their way into creative modern tasting menus that read more like a field survey than a shopping list. Rooms are available if leaving feels wrong, which, given the setting, it probably will.




  34. The lift opens on the fourth floor of a Savoy hunting palace, where 1950s dining rooms give way to a terrace over the formal gardens of the Reggia di Venaria. This is a Michelin-starred fine dining restaurant built around Piedmontese produce, with vegetables doing more of the heavy lifting than you might expect. Lunch runs à la carte; evenings add tasting menus at the chef's call.


  35. Rank 49. La Pineta

    Piedmontese


  36. Rank 50. Between

    Piedmontese


  37. Rank 51. Belliou La Fumée

    Savoyard French



  38. Rank 53. Villa Salina

    Piedmontese

    Frescoed ceilings from an old Piedmontese villa make a quietly theatrical backdrop for a restaurant that covers a lot of ground: regional à la carte at lunch, quality pizzas in the evening, and a garden that, charmingly, now belongs to the local municipality rather than the house. The chef came up through the family pastry shop, and the cooking still has that range-of-motion quality. Seasonal and locally rooted, with enough flexibility that most tables find something to argue over.



  39. The restaurant grows its own vegetables, runs entirely on renewable energy, and sources its winter beef from a butcher who selects specific animals for the kitchen. That's a lot of conviction for one building. It's a modern country restaurant outside Turin, where the dining room fills with natural light through oversized windows and the cooking leans into Piedmontese tradition without being precious about it.


  40. Rank 56. Antiche Sere

    Piedmontese


  41. Rank 57. Café A

    Bistro French

    The brioche pain perdu with ice cream and caramel sauce has its own following, which tells you something about the direction here. Café A is an all-day bistro inside Maison Aribert, open from breakfast through dinner and doing Sunday brunch, running on the idea that grandmother's recipes, done carefully and priced fairly, are the whole argument. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand, which fits the room perfectly.


  42. The dining room sits in what used to be the servants' quarters of the Stupinigi Hunting Lodge, which sets a certain mood before the food even arrives. It's a full-service restaurant doing Piedmontese regional cooking, with seafood running alongside as a genuine parallel option, not an afterthought. The wine list leans local and changes weekly, which keeps regulars guessing in the way a good cellar should.



  43. A piano sits in the corner of what looks like a large glass veranda, and in summer the whole operation shifts outside to a terrace shaded by lemon trees. This contemporary restaurant in a quiet residential neighbourhood away from the centre builds its menu around fire and the grill, turning out personal, market-driven dishes that don't feel obligated to Piedmontese convention. The all-female front-of-house team runs things with easy, unforced warmth.




  44. Rank 63. San Quintino Resort

    Contemporary Italian


  45. The rooftop of a former Fiat factory now hosts a botanical garden, and the restaurant one floor below it has made peace with that act to follow. This is a creative tasting-menu spot inside the Lingotto shopping center, with four menus ranging from Piedmontese classics to a vegetarian garden tour to a blind "trust the kitchen" option. Everything is also available à la carte, which is a rare and civilized gesture.


  46. Rank 65. Mammà Isola di Capri

    Campanian Mediterranean

    Inside a converted multi-use building that also houses a museum and exhibition spaces, this roomy, post-industrial restaurant brings the flavors of Campania north to Turin. The chef's plin pasta, traditionally Piedmontese, gets reworked with cacio, black pepper, and raw prawns, which is either an act of diplomacy or a quiet provocation, depending on where you're from.
