Strolling around on a lazy Sunday we decided to enter this small and cozy restaurant near the Saint Vincent Casino. From the outside it looks modern, but in the inside, with all wooden tables, furniture and details, it has a warmer atmosphere. Food was delicious and well displayed. They offer a very traditional menu, with lots of typical Valdostani dishes. Price is quite reasonable but we did not drank any wine so. Staff is very polite and charming although they do not speak English (maybe more French) but we managed to have a pleasant lunch! Recommended!

Nice looking restaurant with good menu. However I found the food pretty poor for Italy. It takes something to serve up indifferent, reheated pasta, which was distinctly cold in patches, and served on cold plates. Similarly, my main course faggotina was not hot either, and it all therefore tasted rather stodgy. Maybe I was just unlucky given other reviews, but I expected hotter, fresher food than I got.

A unique place that lays its foundations in the Roman era Archeological digs in Saint-Vincent have brought to light a big Roman thermal bath, situated under the Church. Since the building is located near a Roman road, it is assumed that it was a âMansioâ.
We spent there two nice evenings with delicious food and good wine in a friendly atmosphere. For us the best restaurant in Saint Vincent. Greetings for sommelier :)

From the moment you get the the excellent breads and the 'amuse bouche', which is in fact a whole dish filled with delicacies prepared with a variety of techniques, ranging from tempura to a spherification of tomato, you realise you're in for a good experience. The menu reads very well and you want to try everything, but we were in for a light dinner and we limited ourselves to first/starter and main. Cappelletti pasta with ossobuco had a very good filling and sauce (pasta slightly brittle). Moelleux of asparagus was a refined and flavoursome starter.The mains were great: I've eaten many ducks, but this breast was one of the deepest tasting and best cooked I've tried this year. The accompanying meatball would also have been perfect except for a bit of overcooking which reduced moistness. The artichokes going with it however were ideal.And a lamb featured again good and nicely cooked produce, but what elevated this dish were the garnishes, including dates, dried roses and a chickpea puree (described as hummous though I don't think there was any tahini).We skipped desserts, but with our tea excellent petit fours were offered which promise well for the patisserie section... Beside the quality of the produce and the technique, there's a pleasant sense of generosity in this restaurant. The room is warm and impressive and tastefully decorated, in a former granary. Service is competent and polite. Food prices represent quite good value for money considering the quality (and even the quantity, which is higher than average for restaurants of this quality). A place to return to at the next opportunity.

On the main street in Saint Vincent, an easy reach wherever you stay in this small town. Excellent service from when we stepped in, got a nice table. The restaurant is cozy, in a perhaps semi-modern way. We sat down, enjoyed it, and dtarted selecting our dinners. For my starter I went gor a selection of local cheeses, with honey, syrup and two chutneys. Very good. Main: Grilled Wild Boar, excellent! Served with marinated cabbage, which is a brilliant companion to the perfect boar. Wine: a local Fumin, which seems to be the typical Aosta Valley grape. Strong in taste, balanced, not too high tannins, very drinkable and an excellent companion to cheese, as well as wild meat. I was very happy with the meal, the service and actually everything, and based on our experiency I dare recommend Le Petit Bijou as a very good dinner alternative in Saint Vincent.

We got several recommendations about this restaurant, we tried one evening but they were fully booked what raised our expectations.We ate several dishes of beef in various sauces, all came medium-rare mine was covered by arogola leaves and Parmesan, it was ok but not more, my dearest had the blue cheese sauce but the meat was too under done for her so she returned it to the kitchen, our friend had the red wine sauce and his dearest had the capresa salad and the polenta everything was ok but maybe the expectation was too high because i5 was not more than ok....

I am here with my girlfriend's family, I didn't expect the food is that good, we just randomly passed by this restaurant actually. Even they don't really speak English but I can truly see and feel the hospitality they showed, next time we won't be worried to choose the restaurant in this neighborhood, will definitely come back again.i

We had a good lunch in this beautifully renovated restaurant at the entrance of the village of Bard .The greeting was quick and in line with the character of the people who live in the mountains ....but the waitress ,probably foreigner was more chatty and kind .The lard from the nearby producer was served with elegance with a wonderful chestnut purée that breaks the saltiness of the lard . Perfectly cooked the soft boiled egg drowned in a tasty and light cheese fondue . Amazing pork fillet ,not too special the cabbage and cod fish sort of sushi which had no flavour and was served in a tiny portion .Good breads and good choice of wines .

Italy was experiencing a heatwave in early July and we decided to depart a day early and stop over in the mountains for the night, Somewhere close to the motorway that would take us through the Mont Blanc Tunnel to France and the UK, with a car that had to be parked safely as loaded with wine! (It took about 45 mins to get to the tunnel from Al Maniero).Having stayed there we would recommend it as a place to stay to break the journey in comfort. The restaurant is excellent, a bit pricey but good food and very popular with the locals on a week day evening. There is no need for air conditioning as a good breeze blows through the open window, The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom spacious. There is a lift up to the 2 floors. They advertise wifi but not really acceptable so did without, In Issogne there is a bank, a post office and an historic fortified house (Castle) that has guided tours in Italian, every half hour through out the day. We found it both charming and interesting.Note: In this area both French and Italian are spoken. Al Maniero translates as The Manor House. Dinner with wine, for 2 â¬109. Room and simple breakfast, with tax â¬81.50.We thought this would be an excellent stop over in cold weather too as the mountain food would be especially enjoyed at that time of year. . . .
