Le Cap Horn

Top choice in Chamonix


Housed in a candelit, two-storey chalet decorated with model sailing boats – joint homage to the Alps and Cape Horn – this highly praised restaurant, which opened in 2012, serves French and Asian dishes such as pan-seared duck breast with honey and soy sauce, an ample sushi menu, and a marvellous range of seafood like red tuna taquitos and fish stew. Reserve for dinner Friday and Saturday in winter and summer.

Vegetarians have a few options, including a 'Green Plate' of veggie sushi, and there's a fairly ordinary kids' menu too (€13.50).
