Four of us stopped off in Martigny after a day out and decided to try Restaurant 'Les Touristes' on speck.Nelson the restaurant owner was only too happy to seat us without booking and after some delicious rose wine we had a most splendid and sophisticated meal. It is not often I wax lyrical about soup but the tomato soup starter was sensational, creamy with a basil dressing, we all adored it. Afterward we had Canette (duck), bass with coquille sause, Valaisanne pork cooked two ways, and beef ravioli; every dish was outstanding. We did not manage to get to the deserts but I would bet they were good also.Don't miss this place if you are in the area, it has only been open 6 months but I would not be surprised if it eventually got interest from the Michelin man.

One of the advantages of visiting Switzerland is that you can enjoy French and Italian cuisine without leaving the country. We arrived without a reservation and were offered an outside table along with others who appeared to be regular customers. Our waitress didn't speak much English, which was a good sign. The food was simply marvelous, especially the escargot and the risotto.
8. Cafe de Somlaproz - Chez Zezza
Reviewed By Kingsleyjamesflint
We have a chalet in Champex further up the long and winding road, but we found ourselves in Orsieres doing business, and as we planned to go shopping later further down but the shops were closed we decided finally to go to Chez Zezza for lunch. What a marvellous lunch it was! I had the very best beef tartare I have eaten, perfectly cut and balanced in flavour and was offered a second helping of fries, my wife ate a lovely warm goats' cheese salad, copious and delicious. The place was full of locals and burly working men evidently enjoying their good food, and repeated compliments were heard as people were leaving. Typical of the generous spirit of the place was the offering of a tiny mars bar and a similar snickers with our two decent sized coffees at the end. Good hearty food at reasonable prices for this expensive country. Very much recommended.
7. Au rendez-vous
Reviewed By apeakhiker
We spent the night at the Au rendez vous b&b. It all started out fine, nice room with a view. About midnight, however, the party began in the restaurant/bar area. The noise and music continued until 5am. Not only did we not get any sleep, at some point one begins to worry about safety as the loud partying continues all night long. It was a horrible stressful situation. When the hostess, Isabelle was told of the situation (in the morning) she gave us about a 10% discount... hardly enough to make up for our horrible night. Don't stay here if you want a good night sleep!

It's not a bad place. Staff is nice and the deco gives the place a cozy environment. The down for me was the price i paid for a tart ... Tarte aux fruits du saison.6 euros ... It was delicious but, it was a big cookie with pastry cream and strawberries. Super small for the price.When i think about tarts, i don't expect a cookie with topping.

This lovely local restaurant offers a stunning serene view of the lake surrounded by mountains in the heart of Chapex lac, a tiny lovely village that will sure to make your heart warm and happy when visit. Highly recommend to just relax and sit down to get the sunbath. Fish here is wonderfully fresh with good sour cream sauce.
4. L'alpage Du Plan De L'au
Reviewed By AntoineLondonSW11
We stumbled on this little alpine restaurant during our last day of the TMB, on our way from Trient to Champex-Lac. Such a nice surprise. A wonderful view over the valley, outdoor seating and most importantly the best roesti i have ever had. And i have had my fair share of this typical Swiss dish in my life! Whatâs fun is that the waitress brings you a tick-list for you to build your own roesti from scratch (you can do the same with a croute au fromage). Choose among a dozen of ingredients, including cheese, onions, garlic, bacon, ham, chanterelle mushrooms, etc. and get the dish of your dreams steaming hot i front of you in less than 10 minutes. Absolute dream. And no one will judge you if you go for the full shebang! Accessible by car but the walk from Champex-Lac is lovely, takes approximately 1 hour and is quite easy, taking you through rolling meadows and picture-perfect valleys.

Visited the place on Swiss national day. Glad we could get a table as most restaurants in the town center was full.Very nice and attentive young waitress trying hard to serve us in English. Foods was good and tasty. Tried the famous Swiss national food, fondue, here. Lot of cheese and love the mushroom that mixed well with the taste of cheese.

The place looks very popular and it is certainly well deserved. Simple luminous decor, friendly service and a menu with semi sophisticated dishes, made of good product (many of them variations around Herens beef), that would be successful in any big city... this is a simple recipe but a good one. We had an excellent dinner there and would certainly come back at a next opportunity. All this doesn't come cheap but remains acceptable.

This amazing restaurant, nestled in the Swiss Alps, is one of my favourite restaurants in the Valais. Eating my foie gras was like unpacking a gift wrapped present! Both the embellishments and the foie gras were a pleasure to eat. Then, for my main course, my duck breast was carefully coiled, colourfully decorated, and tasted delicious. Sam, the chef, is meticulous in his choice of fresh, local ingredients which are cooked to perfection and look amazing. He also visited us at coffee time, to say hello and have a chat about our food. So, overall the presentation has a strong sensory appeal making the meal all the more enjoyable. We drank a local gamay wine which went well with the food and was very well priced. I can't wait to visit again!
