Le Napoleon - Lanslebourg-Mont-Cenis

We've been coming back to Le Napoleon on and off for over 20 years but this time was after a four year gap skiing elsewhere the year the pandemic landed and then unable to get back before now. Anyway, it's just as good as before, although very evidently even busier, so you'd be advised to book in advance. The food's excellent and the service is fast, friendly and fun.

We ate here after our arrival, a large party with starving teenagers and picky preteens. The atmosphere is really lowkey; it is more of a bar than a restaurant. However, the food though limited in selection, was very good. My kids loved the pizzzas, and I had the best tartiflette of my trip...heavy on the lardons and cheese and just fantastic. I got a great recommendation for a local Savoie wine I normally don't drink white but the owner made a recommendation to go with my meal and now I am a convert). It is nothing fancy, and you'd run out of things to try after a few visits, but it was perfect for that night and there is pool/foozball too if your kids get bored).

Set back from the high street but easy to find. Warm welcome and very helpful staff with menu translation. The chef (who is very funny and entertaining) will come out and discuss your requirements eg gluten free. Perfect food after a day on the slopes. Superb fondue and the raclette seemed very popular. Beware the chef bearing shots at the end of your meal!!!! '

Very good. We had here dinner for two nights in a row. Yesterday we hadn’t made a reservation so we ate a pizza outside. I saw so many people do raclette or fondue inside that we made a reservation to eat here the next day (today) again. Today we enjoyed a fondue. Friendly people. We will be back this winter!

Not very friendly staff, food very average not recommended , avoid this place if possible , not too fresh at all
