You’ll step into the warm atmosphere of a traditional Brisolée, where local flavours, seasonal produce and Valais traditions come together. Around the table, roasted chestnuts, cured meats and regional specialities invite you to slow down, share and savour the moment.
From the first taste to the last glass, you’ll discover the richness of Valais terroir and the pleasure of simple, authentic cuisine. The atmosphere is relaxed and convivial, perfect for gathering with friends or family and enjoying the spirit of autumn.
A Brisolée is about sharing, tradition and indulgence — a delicious way to experience Valais through its flavours and seasonal rituals.

Need a hand planning your activities?
We recommend booking in advance, as Brisolée evenings are highly sought after, particularly during the autumn season and weekends. Reserving ahead allows our team to prepare the experience with the care and attention it deserves.
We invite you to arrive a little early to enjoy the atmosphere of the restaurant and settle in comfortably before the meal. As Brisolée is best enjoyed in a seasonal setting, we recommend dressing in layers for cooler autumn evenings.
