Gault&Millau's review 2026

Just a stone's throw from the face of Bellevarde, La Table de l'Ours is part of an elegant hotel that has understood one essential thing: true luxury isn't about showing off, it's about keeping it. Seated on a deep-green banquette, facing a large fireplace that gives rhythm to the room, you'll discover a décor where wood imposes itself without ever weighing down the space. Clearly, this is a hotel restaurant, but the address also attracts locals, and that changes everything. Here, the food is real, far from the slick tables and sometimes invasive bling of Val-d'Isère. In the kitchen, chef Antoine Gras talks mountains without forcing the issue. His appetizers are sometimes bold and boldly assumed, conceived as an appetizer. The mallard, precise and vegetal, shows true mastery. The trout, barely smoked, stands out as a highlight: just cooked, delicately smoked, cleanly balanced. The desserts bring up the rear with intelligence, focusing on lightness and texture rather than sweet overkill. Homemade breads (made here), churned butter and local walnut oil are not just anecdotes: they're choices you can feel good about. The wine list, designed by Magali Delalex, is built with conviction, deeply Alpine, at prices surprisingly coherent for the resort, and looks more like a position statement than a simple catalog. The service remains attentive, fluid and human, even when the room gets busy. A table that doesn't seek to seduce Instagram but to leave a trace. And it does so, quietly and sincerely. Just what Val-d'Isère needs...
