Where to eat European food in Crans-Montana: The Best Restaurants and Bars

April 28, 2020 Stefan Strunk

Reviews on European food in Crans-Montana, Swiss Alps, Switzerland. Crans-Montana actually comprises two ski resorts, Crans-sur-Sierre and Montana-Vermala, although for all intents and purposes, they function as one. Popular with affluent Italians, the skiing is good (best for beginners and intermediates), but the shopping, eating and drinking are even better. The resort claims to be on the sunniest plateau in the Alps, and indeed the snow is often lacking, but the views over the Rh™ne are superb. Every September, the resort hosts the European Masters golf tournament.

typical Swiss alpine chalet offering in a very cosy atmosphere a choice of simple but well cooked dishes at decent price. The staff is welcoming and offers a very good service Nice selection of wines from Valais (and elsewhere too).Same owner as Zerodix at Cry d'Er, another place to visit.

Restaurant Didier de Courten

Reviewed By Alwyn42

The two of us went for dinner. The room is a little antiseptic but the tables are well separated: the antithesis of the American Experience. The food was outstandingly cooked and beautifully presented. So what went wrong? Nothing except we don't do complicated and we don't do chichi. There were simply too many differing flavours and attention grabbers in every dish. It's not that we are meat and potatoes lovers either. We like elegance, simplicity and craftsmanship in food, wine, fashion, architecture, music and art. Didier de Courten has all of that to a great degree except simplicity. His works are intricate and thought provoking. I hope many of you read this and decide to go and have a wonderful experience. Give me L'Auberge de L'll, the Trois Tours in Fribourg/Bourguillon, The Connaught in London or the ultimate in understatement the venerable Suchi-Ko in the Ginza. We will try the Brasserie one day but probably continue to stay away from the main dining room.

Always good to pop in for lunch. The soup is particularly good. One can often drop off the diet and have a plate of chips. A really good place for a snack. Hello,Thank you for your comment ! It will be a pleasure to have you in our establishment again.Best regards Nicolas Bonvin

It’s impossible to pass by after a day of skiing and not stop in for a chat, dance or a hot drink. I’ve tried to head straight to the car and i have never succeeded in my attempts. Their mulled wine is shockingly delicious, everyone has a smile on their face the whole time they are there, I always leave with two new friends. It is a must.

I stumbled on this restaurant while traveling through Crans-Montana. It turned out to be one of the best meals I have had. If you are a fan of steak tartare, look no further than the Tartare Royale......steak tartare with pate. Probably the best steak tartare I've ever had!!! They have some great pastas too. The service is very good and friendly, Very good location too.

The food and service at this restaurant is what you would expect. The pasta and pizza are excellent. Eating outside in the warm weather is a great. The chef's recommendations, especially of the wines should be considered.

We were introduced to this restaurant for Sunday lunch. Super nice manager and staff. WOW. An amazing spread of different Italian charcuterie thinly sliced meats. The mortadella with truffle was melt in the mouth. Salads, cheese, smoked salmon, extremely thinly sliced octopus salad ( delicious) It didn’t stop. Pumpkin soup, stuffed tiny peppers, linguine ( Black Ink) with seafood. Then, a choice of fish or meat. Again , tender venison with sauce morels, grilled filet of fish. Desserts, so many to choose from. Pièce de résistance freshly made “bomboloni “ like donuts, but much lighter and filled with a cream made with mascarpone & limoncello. To top it off a glass of limoncello. We needed a hammock afterwards to rest! Thank you for such a delicious lunch. Definitely we will return.

By chance, found out this little yet elegant restaurant in Crans Montana commune area (not in the heart of Crans or Montana but in a very nearby village called Chermignon dén-haut). It is a restaurant that I would come back again without any second thoughts. I don't normally enjoy restaurant food when in this part of the world unless you pay a premium price and yet not so convincing. As a frequent visitor to Crans Montana, I lost my faith in food, either expensive or tasteless. Finally, I can say this restaurant solved my taste buds misery :-) The food was very delicious with good quality and surprisingly for a very reasonable price. You could hardly get such good quality delicious food with such good price in Crans Montana, believe me. The service was very pleasant, the waiter was professional and speaks good English! The owner, (unsure if he is the one) had the best smile :-)I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visits Crans Montana! Will stop by at the restaurant again on my next trip :-)
