L'Ekrin — Restaurant in Albertville

I dined at L'Ekrin during our ski holiday with my wife and son. We all agreed that our meal was one of the best we had had in recent memory, and we have all eaten at some very highly rated restaurants in France and elsewhere.

My son and I chose the six course regular menu, while my wife had the nine course vegetarian menu. Every dish we had we thought was excellent in terms of presentation, originality and taste. Personally, from my experience of French two and three Michelin starred restaurants over the years, the meal's quality exceeded some of those, and I think L'Ekrin under its current chef should be a strong candidate for a second star.

We were particularly grateful to the sommelier, whose choice of our white wine (we decided against the wine pairing option) was a superb 2012 Chateau de Fonsalette Cotes du Rhone, one of the best whites any of us could remember having.

All in all, a superb meal, and despite its cost, great...

Had a fantastic dinner at L’Ekrin while on ski vacation with friends. We were a large group with two vegetarians celebrating a birthday. The team was incredibly welcoming and made the night one to remember. Also, this was one of the only places I was able to find a complete tasting menu for the vegetarians in our party and they were incredibly excited. They thought it was one of the best meals they’ve ever had. The non-vegetarians in our group agreed. Appreciate the delicious food and friendly staff. Will be back if we are in...

Absolute attention to detail. Visited February 2023. Had the authentik 10 course menu with a wine pairing. From the moment you enter the building your are treated like royalty. The staff are superb, conveying the idea behind each dish and answering to any whim you have. The sommelier paired the most excellent wines and digestives to accompany the most excellent food concocted by the Michelin chefs. A well deserved Michelin star! Will definitely be coming...
