Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

By far the best Apres Ski in the area. Such a good party atmosphere in a stunning location it is always really busy but there is plenty of space and service at the bar was surprisingly quick. It is expensive but then again it is apres ski so not surprising. Will be back.

We visited on NYE expecting much more!
The meal was mediocre and service was slow and unorganised.
I have been to several Folie Douce restaurants in various resorts and this was the worst by far.
The worst part was the entertainment, its was not very uplifting at all - The guitarist was crap playing the same 3 cords to every track, the dancers were cringe worthy - We attended the day before and they all played the exact same show, in the same format which provided no atmosphere on either day!
Where is the champagne spray and good music?? I think they need to take a look at the Val Thorens Folie Douce for some inspiration!

Good afternoon,
Thank you for taking the time to review us, every comments is really important to us.
I'm so sorry that you have been disappointed by your experience in our restaurant.
I would like to clarify that, this year is particular due to the covid situation, our show, and usual entertainment has been changed to fit the governement restrictions, so it's certainly not the same atmosphere as usual.
We hope things will gets better soon, and we could party again !
Have a nice day,
La Folie Douce Avoriaz

We booked a VIP lunch for 12 of us with a minimum €150 per head spend, it was definitely worth it. The lunch was inside (it was raining :-() and good food/service and a lot of fun with singers. The we had an area outside with table service - it's worth doing VIP for the table service alone! We spend approx €180 pp. I don't recommend skiing down after drinking rose for 5 hours though...

This rating is purely on the food and restaurant. We ate here yesterday and not one of the 8 us was impressed by the choice or quality.
For the price we were expecting something special but of all the restaurants we’ve eaten at on this trip, this was by far the worst.
Would not recommend eating here but certainly enjoy a drink and the entertainment- singers and DJ

Nine of us for lunch in La Fruitier. This is separate from the Follie Douce restaurant and much more up market and expensive. Had a great meal with superb service and entertainment with the singers. Downstairs, La Follie Douce, is a self service food section. Average pub/mountain chalet fare here but much cheaper.

Burgers are rather cheap, good portions and delicious. Queue can however get real long at lunchtime.
They put on some music and when we were there, had singers do covers and even a saxophone guy playing with a DJ.
Bar offers a wide range of drinks, I recommend their hot wine!

We visited for the second sitting which is always more lively. The singers concentrated outside where it was pumping. Inside the food was much better than usual, we made good choices, and the red burgundy was excellent, also the fondue and ribs, rounded off by an enormous chocolate mousse. No schnapps though, but we consoled ourselves with generous while the almost-grown up kids went out to dance on the tables.

The place is disappointing at lunchtime, the atmosphere is minimalist with no real show unlike the Folie Douce in Val d'Isère and Meribel where the dancers give it a go non-stop. The artistic staff is not up to par. Food is ok. The attentive servers.
The atmosphere starts around 3:15 p.m. but after 4 p.m. it's impossible to get in because there are so many people. The sound quality is not bad but then the dancers are frankly bad. Even the DJ plays (good) sound but doesn't put on the show. A piece of advice for the sweet madness of Avoriaz, go see what’s happening there in Meribel and Val d’Isère.

Nous sommes désolés d'apprendre que l'ambiance n'a pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes.
Nous avons pris la décision de constituer notre équipe artistique exclusivement de chanteurs et de musiciens, sans danseurs, ce qui pourrait expliquer la différence par rapport à d'autres établissements.
Pendant les vacances scolaires de février, notre établissement attire en effet beaucoup de monde, il est donc recommandé d'arriver assez tôt pour profiter pleinement de l'expérience.

Probably the best thing that happened to Avoriaz the last decade!
Good & original served food, very friendly service in La Fruitiere. (No so much in the self service & I also miss the pasta rolled in the Parmesan cheese).
The performances are really great this year, costumes are nice. DJ’s are good, especially when they play less commercial deep house.
The unlimited folie was a perfect initiative, we enjoyed the Kiddy Smile DJ set.
A perfect place to start a sunny afternoon, dance and even make some new friends.
Much more style & ambiance than the one in Val Thorens.

The perfect mix: efficient and pleasant service, beautiful products, refined and inventive cuisine that revisits the classics. And obviously a good atmosphere. The only downside is that the bartenders don't seem to know much about classic cocktails.

Great place full of atmosphere. Today, 1st January everyone was dancing to the music! A young woman played the violin to a cheering crowd! Just the thing for New Years Day! The family met up here for drinks and hot chocolate for the younger generation. This place must not be missed!

If you like good food and party vibes, then La Folie Douce Avoriaz is the place for you! I have visited many La Folie Douce locations around Europe and can confirm Avoriaz is easily in the top 3. Fabian, Joseph and the team are like family and that shows in the service they deliver.. 10/10

We we’re staying in Morzine and booked for lunch at 2.15. Perfect weather and great time as the party starts at 4pm.
The food was amazing and mistakes were made in the order but they more than made up for this and were very apologetic.
This is a fun venue and well worth a visit for one afternoon of your holiday.

Thank you very much for your review.
The prices are reflective of the high-quality products and the situation of our restaurants on the slopes. Additionally, the cost includes the entertainment you get to enjoy during your lunch or drinks, with live singers, djs, and musiciens. We hope to welcome you back soon for another delightful experience!

We have a house in Morzine and always take visitors up to the Folie. It's a great afternoons entertainment. They've taken the central stage down and at first I didn't like it. But-I've now realised you get the sun all afternoon on the dining tables.
