Eurl Irish Coffee - Chamonix-Mont-Blanc

Best Italian restaurant in Chamonix. Great atmosphere and food. Service was attentive and fast. House wine, pizzas, desserts. Loved it all.

The food was pretty decent here but the rest of the experience was like something out of a Monty Python skit lampooning French waiters. After waiting for quite a while for any attention, the waiter arrived to take our order. With each persons order his eye rolls became more expressive (btw the pizzas we ordered as appetizers were delicious as were the salades and veal dishes) so much so that we felt like laughing at each order.Then we order wine asking for a specific Italian white which the waiter then insisted was not a white and in any event they did not have that wine and the only white they had was a Pinot Gris. We then pointed to the list and asked for a Chardonnay and he said fine with a harrumph. We ordered a specific red we as well. The wines arrived and were promptly opened even though the red was not the wine we ordered. We drank it anyway. The pizzas came as did the salads and we waited for the entrees. The waiter returned (before the entrees) and said desert or are you ready for the check. We meekly suggested that our entrees had not arrived at which he sneered at us and we then said by the way we would like another red the one we originally ordered. He turned without any acknowledgment. The entrees arrived. No wine. We asked his colleague if we could get the aforementioned wine. 5 minutes later our waiter shows up with two bottle of JJ red which he then literally tosses in front of me onto the table (luckily they did not break) and says sir which one do you want!? Neither one was the one we wanted off the list. We said thank you we will take that one opened it and walked away. As it turned out the wines were much much cheaper than the one we had tried to order. We were a group of 5 Americans in a French resort restaurant who were trying to not be ugly Americans. Perhaps we did not succeed but the service was truly horrible! Be warned!

Great Italian spot and superb pizza. We also tried the seafood penne but pizza was the best at this place. Lots of seating and many Italian dishes to choose from.

Ate at Casa Valerio in 2014 and thought it was awesome back then and so happy to say it's still fabulous! Great and friendly service, including the owner cutting your pizza for you! So cute, cozy and clean. Love the mini tureen of cold gazpacho with skinning breadsticks they start you off with. The Cesar salad was unlike any other I have had, very hearty and delicious! Wonderful carpaccio and pizzas too. Be sure to call ahead for reservations as it fills up quickly and tightly so!

Food and wine list is good. However, if you don't speak Italian or French, they will ignore you. We had dinner one night that was amazing. We stopped in for drinks and dessert and we were ignored, of course the local at the bar was acknowledged. We are well travelled and from a tourist town so it was very clear we were an after thought at the most.
