Ristorante Aria — Restaurant in Courmayeur

I just dined at Aria having eaten there twice last year and loved it. I feel the level of service and food has definitely declined significantly in the past 12 months. The pasta’s were mediocre and quite bland, with more pasta than sauce. But that could be overlooked had the main courses not been so terrible… My Ginea Fowl was undercooked (raw) and my husband’s carbonade was more kidney than venison. And regarding the staff, although my meal was largely uneaten, (as it was uncooked) there was no comment or question from the staff as to a problem/concern, even after I alerted the staff to the fact AFTER paying the bill in full. I’m not one to complain, and I don’t expect discounts for disappointments, but I do expect...

My favourite restaurant in Courmayeur after trying many of the well rated, highly recommended restaurants by locals.

The Italian food selection is outstanding. Every item was highly enjoyable. Service by their immaculately dressed service staff was sterling good.

Restaurant Aria also has an outstanding selection of wines, 50+ pages in their electronic wine list. Coupled with a restaurant owner who is clearly a very experienced wine enthusiast, we could pick out some real gems to go with the food.

Would strongly recommend this restaurant as a must try, well ahead of the other restaurants who somehow (no idea why) have higher Google ratings. It's the only place we came back twice on our Tour Du Mont...

Very cozy place. Super warm atmosphere, we were attended on time and no waiting time. The food was served in good timing and the prices are good for the quality. We ordered the eel which I founded really tasty and well presented. The pasta was not really special as we were trying the recommendation of the house but they mixed which is a traditional way of making pasta with tomato sauce and we would have preferred the original version (but just our opinion). The beef was well cooked. We liked the idea that they serve you on the house a light starter that was made with calamari. Very tasty. Thanks for...
