La Joyeuse Fondue

Visited 1st day of holiday and loved it so much went on the last. I've been before and always found the food and service to be excellent. First visit we had a raclette, cook your own cheese and have it with meats, potatoes and salad....Delicious stuff. Second visit we had a Swiss fondue. Absolutely fantastic. Big pot of very tasty boiling cheese with bread and potatoes to dip in. You just have to try it. Yes, it's a busy and noisy place with the tables close together. Go to the library is you like quiet. But you won't get a fondue there. Great service. Good wines to choose from and the desserts very good too. Always on my list to visit.

We had a big table of 8 people and the restaurant gladly accommodated our booking 2 days in advance. We had two rump steaks and the cepes fondue, which we accompanied by potatoes and salad (the salad was refilled as needed). The combination of the...steak and cheese was divine. Another part of the table had the meat fondue, which apparently wasn't as good. The restaurant has a low ceiling, which combined with the hot oil from the fondues, makes the place a bit foggy and will leave you with a grease smell. Service was fast and courteous, but they could definitely benefit from an extra waiter.

This is a place where you can find decent food at a decent price in Val Thorens were most things are really expensive. You can get fondue and raclette for 25-30 euros. The service was not great but ok and the food was either great...but not bad. The price level matches the experience.

Friendly, swift and helpful service. Fondue; cheese or meat was superb and masses of it. I would avoid the mixed grill (cold on this occasion). Meal was so good we returned for a second visit. Caters for large groups easily but I would book....Overall, very good Fondue, very good value, very good service.

Good restaurant, great if you want a fondue or raclette. Nice atmosphere with friendly and efficient service who are kept on their toes by the very attentive lady running the show. We were a party of 8 so we had a good mixture of items...off the menu and all dishes were excellent and reasonable value for Val Thorens. You won’t be disappointed.
