A table designed to fit naturally into a stay on Lake Annecy
Our restaurant is located in Talloires, directly on the eastern shore of Lake Annecy.We welcome both hotel guests and visitors coming from Annecy, Menthon-Saint-Bernard, and Veyrier-du-Lac.
Many guests arrive after a walk, a boat trip, or a full day spent around the lake. The meal then becomes a central part of their stay: they sit down, the pace slows, and dining becomes a moment set apart.
Our cuisine is designed to accompany these moments, with a clear intention: to offer an elegant, readable table where guests can take their time for lunch or dinner in a calm lakeside setting.
Seasonal cuisine built around the product
Here in Talloires, on Lake Annecy, our cooking follows the rhythm of the seasons and daily arrivals.
We work with a deliberately concise menu that evolves throughout the year. Each dish is built around fresh ingredients chosen for their flavour and consistency, then prepared with precision.
Rather than fixing a menu long-term, we adjust dishes week by week. This flexibility keeps us close to the product, avoids trends for their own sake, and allows us to offer clear, seasonal cuisine rooted in Haute-Savoie, designed to complement a stay on Lake Annecy.
Working with local partners around Lake Annecy
We collaborate with producers and artisans based around Lake Annecy and in Haute-Savoie, maintaining direct relationships with each of them:
Maison Baud in Villaz, for selected cuts of meat
Ferme des Castors in Doussard, for seasonal farm products
Ludovic Archer, for our wine selection
Working this way allows us to follow deliveries closely and adapt the menu according to what is genuinely available, rather than relying on distant sourcing. It also helps maintain consistency on the plate throughout the year.
Precision in the kitchen, elegance in the dining room
In the kitchen, we focus on the essentials: accurate cooking, balanced seasoning, restrained presentation.
In the dining room, we aim for an elegant, relaxed service.
Guests often arrive after time spent around Lake Annecy. Once seated, the pace changes. The meal becomes a pause in the day — unhurried, attentive, comfortable.
Our goal is to create this moment: thoughtful service without stiffness, in a setting that allows guests to slow down and enjoy being at the table.
It is this combination — precise cooking, attentive hospitality, and our lakeside location in Talloires — that gives each meal its character.
Easy access to the Lake Annecy area
Our location also makes it easy to explore the surroundings.
Many guests combine their meal with a visit to Menthon-Saint-Bernard, time on the beaches of Veyrier-du-Lac, or a walk through Annecy’s old town.
Talloires is often chosen for this balance: the calm of the eastern shore, with all the highlights of Lake Annecy close at hand.
