Beautiful interior and a breath taking terrace. It's a short 20 mins hike from Bendolla cable car. The restaurants homemade cheese is out of this world! I sometimes take my laptop there and just work with a view.

Le restaurant a été une agréable surprise, d’autant plus que les restaurants d’altitude réservent parfois des déceptions. Les pâtes étaient très bonnes, tout comme la soupe. Le service peut paraître un peu brusque, mais cela reste tout à fait correct. La grande terrasse offre une belle vue. Les toilettes sont propres, même si elles sont souvent très fréquentées. En période hivernale, je recommande de venir tôt si vous souhaitez une table à l’intérieur, ou de réserver si cela est possible.
