Frommer's Review

This good-natured restaurant is the domain of longtime Chamonix resident Valerio Comazetto, whose customers have followed him from restaurant to restaurant for 2 decades. You may enjoy a drink at the cozy bar, filled with Chianti bottles and Alpine souvenirs, before proceeding upstairs to the dining room, where red-and-white-checked tablecloths set the trattoria mood. You'll find the best pizzas in the region, many redolent of Mediterranean herbs. The restaurant serves up to 25 kinds of fresh-made pasta, including succulent versions with salmon and thin-sliced jambon de Parme. More substantial dishes include grilled calamari and mussels in white-wine sauce.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
