Le Tremplin

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Le Tremplin, and it truly exceeded expectations in every respect. The food was outstanding. The steak was cooked perfectly tender, flavourful, and beautifully presented accompanied by excellent fries and a rich, well-balanced sauce. The seafood pasta was equally impressive: fresh mussels, perfectly cooked pasta, and a delicate, creamy sauce with just the right level of seasoning. It was evident that great care is taken with ingredient quality and execution. Dessert was the perfect finale. The éclair was elegant, light, and indulgent without being overly sweet, demonstrating real pastry craftsmanship and attention to detail in both taste and presentation. Beyond the food, the atmosphere is warm and refined, striking a perfect balance between relaxed and elegant. Service was attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming, making us feel looked after without being intrusive. Everything arrived promptly, and the staff clearly take pride in what they do. Whether for a leisurely lunch, a refined dinner, or a special occasion in Courchevel, Le Tremplin delivers a consistently high standard across cuisine, service, and ambience. We will most certainly be returning and would recommend it without hesitation to anyone looking for an excellent dining experience.

The food was okay at most. Terrible service. Wait staff treated my party like the scum of the earth. The male waiter (over 50) was horrible, unkind and considering his age has an intense lack of manners. If wearing my AP I would have received better service. Clearly this restaurant doesn’t understand quite luxury. If you’re into that new money type of stuff, I’d say this place is good for you if you’re into old money, quiet wealth I’d steer clear. Considering the fact that our group was younger I understand a sort of weird treatment. The thing that was the icing on the cake was when the waiter told my friend to “move” when she was walking to exit the restaurant. He pushed by her and spoke to her w no respect or kindness.

I do not ordinarily leave negative reviews; however, I feel compelled to do so on this occasion to ensure that the negligence we experienced does not result in a far more serious incident in the future. Our experience at Le Tremplin was deeply distressing. My son is coeliac, and we made his dietary requirements explicitly clear when ordering. Despite this, he was served sushi containing soy sauce. When we raised the issue, the plate was taken away, only for what appeared to be the exact same pieces of sushi to be returned on a different plate. My son immediately recognised them. For someone with coeliac disease, this is not a minor oversight — it is a serious health risk. He could have become very unwell as a direct result of this carelessness. What was even more upsetting was the conduct of the individual who identified himself as the manager. When I calmly asked to speak with the chef, he responded in an aggressive and dismissive manner, speaking over me and shouting at me as though I were a child. At a time when we were clearly distressed about my son’s safety, his behaviour was entirely inappropriate and unprofessional. He stated he was “too busy” to speak with us, continued moving napkins between tables, and then proceeded to smile, wave, and behave in a patronising manner while we were visibly upset. It was genuinely shocking. It is a great shame, as the setting and meal could have been enjoyable. However, the lack of care, accountability, and basic professionalism overshadowed everything. I feel very strongly that anyone with allergies or serious dietary requirements should avoid this restaurant at all costs.

We came to the creperie almost every day at lunch time during our week in Courchevel. It can get quite crowded, but the service does a great job, they are all very friendly and quick. The atmosphere is very good. We had many galettes, crepes and oysters and all were excellent. Prices are very reasonable for Courchevel standards.

Evening drop in for a couple of crepes and a drink at the Creperie only. We were the second of only x2 tables, so it was nice and quiet and we were sat by the window overlooking the gondola station. Server was pleasant enough and we had time to choose from a large menu of options. As Courchevels #1 spot for crepes, maybe I expected too much, but overall, this visit was just ok, crepes we’re nice but nothing special, and the €80 bill for these and a couple of drinks didn’t feel like good value. The market runs on a Wednesday & Thursday, pop down to a local vendor instead and grab one on the go for €7-14

The food was absolutely great, truffle pasta is delicious. We stayed on the terrace, perfect lunch before skiing again

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience at Le Tremplin was so unnecessarily hostile that I feel I should warn others. We were seated without issue. A few minutes later, when we politely asked if it was possible to order (we’d explained we were in a rush), the server we spoke to responded curtly that he “wasn’t our server” and that we should wait. That in itself is fine, restaurants have sections, but what followed was not. He then doubled down with a completely unacceptable comment of “that’s your problem if you’re in a rush” while insisting there was “an order to things.” No customer should be spoken to like this, ever. After that, we waited a further 10 minutes without being served. During that time, the same waiter walked past our table multiple times, making eye contact, but still didn’t come over or send anyone else. When we tried to get the attention of another waiter, we were ignored. At that point, given the delay and the tone we’d been met with, we decided to leave. What really sealed it was that the moment we stood up and left, the manager immediately came over and cleared the table, which made it feel like staff were aware we were there and simply chose not to serve us. To add insult to injury, the prices are extremely difficult to justify: €8 for a Coca Cola, €10 for a hot chocolate, and €11 for an Earl Grey tea is beyond “a bit pricey.” I understand busy periods. I understand staffing and sections. What I don’t understand (and won’t accept as a customer) is being spoken to with contempt and then deliberately ignored. Based on the service alone, I would advise that you spend your time and money elsewhere.

This was the second time I visited. Very rude staff, especially the older man wearing prescription glasses. He was blatantly ignoring us. No one paid us any attention at all. No one was smiling either. When we finally sat down, the same man was annoyed because we had been seated for over an hour. He even told us that we had to leave. I should note that we spent a considerable amount of money at this establishment with our orders, and as is well known, it is one of the most expensive restaurants in the area. The owner may not care, but he should pay attention to the behavior of his employees. We are not animals. The real animals are the employees who come to work just to make a quick grab for money. We have standards. We have been to far better restaurants with real quality — not this one with terrible food and awful service. I will not give such restaurants another chance, and believe me, many people have complaints about this place.
