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.

We had a wonderful dinner courtesy of the owners, Paco and Christelle.
The setting is superb, in a beautiful old building (see the picture).
The food on offer is fantastic : we had French classics fondue, tarte framboise and pain perdu. One of our party had pizza ‘magret’ (duck) and rump steak. All the food we tasted was delicious. There was also andouillettes on the menu.
The service (by Paco) is second to none. It should be noted that he appears to be the only ‘waiter’ so do not expect to be attended to immediately (especially when it is busy and also because he takes time to chat to his clients - which is so lovely and unique!).
The price charged was very small (considering the experience provided).
The only drawback was that when we visited, the toilets were under maintenance.
However, this being said and for all the above reasons, I would highly recommend this place if you’re in the region.

We came to celebrate Valentine’s Day in this beautiful restaurant during our ski stay and we absolutely do not regret this choice. We were very touched by the kindness embodied in Paco, who welcomed us warmly and made a friendly time. The kitchen was also very good. The atmosphere of this restaurant is just amazing, everything is done with the heart and that’s what is beautiful. Thank you again for this precious moment.

Atmosphere as we do more. The kitchen is delicious the place is very beautiful and beautifully decorated. It is rare to find pizzas by the meter that are of such high quality!
We love Paco's kindness and this lovely family adventure! We wish them much happiness, like the one we had on our plates and in the room.

Do not trust outside and dare to enter....after booking... otherwise too bad for you.
In vaulted cellars, Paco will share his kindness, welcome and generosity.
He plays to a sold-out crowd because he runs errands during the day. Lamb, beef, fondues and pizza by the meter... and all at very decent Awards. Go on!

A real altitude restaurant as we like them. Excellent meal (pizza by the meter for young people and fondue for parents), friendly and warm atmosphere.
Paco knows how to welcome and put you at ease.
We even pushed the song to a guitarist at the next table.
I recommend without moderation.

This is an authentic and pleasant place. Yes the card is short, yes the service is slow, yes it does not take the cb and so? The kitchen is good and generous. Paco is truculent and knows what he serves you. And not to spoil anything, the Awards are very decent. Not like some local restaurants that, under the pretext that they are in the mountains, murder you and serve you frozen products.
Thanks, Paco. See you later.

I love the Sundial and the kindness of its bosses, Paco and Christelle. In addition, the pizzas are excellent as well as local dishes. I strongly advise!

Great welcome from Paco in his traditional village restaurant. Beautiful stone vaulted cellar, children’s corner with books/games, simple kitchen and house: pizza by the meter, andouillette, fondue, charcuterie board... good on the plate and served with a smile and heart ❤️ in addition, the prices are correct... in short, a very pleasant experience, far from tourist restaurants on the snow front!

Superb location, in a vaulted room all in stone and with 17th century mountain furniture. Authentic village cuisine with fondue, pizza by the meter, red meat and exquisite andouillette... time stands still during a meal.

Exceptionnel, rare,
Do not trust outside this small typical mountain restaurant...
Push the front door and let Paco surprise you!
ESPECIALLY CALL TO BOOK AT LEAST 3 OR 4 DAYS IN ADVANCE
Outsized humanly (Christelle and Paco, 2 rare people of simplicity and truth)
Outsized taste (everything is homemade and an old-fashioned delight)
Outstanding commercially (rates that surprise you so much the hosts respect their guests)
Nothing in the appear but everything in the truth
(we had told Paco that we were putting a candle so that a table would open and our wish was granted)
Our only regret will be not being able to return during our stay because already full.

Do not look elsewhere this place is unique. The pizza by the meter made by Christelle is exceptional and so is the service "hosted" by Paco. Many thanks for this moment.
