Brasserie L'Arbina - Tignes

We had a very good night. personal top and arranger! quality cuisine. And thanks to eric!

A welcoming and smiling team. Quick and effective surveillance. Good products. customer sense. A counselor.

We chose Brasserie L'Arbina on the Chalet staff's night off. The atmosphere was jolly and friendly. Large menu typical of the area (Savoie) plus pizzas. Staff jovial and hard working it was a fairly full restaurant.

Having patronised The Arbina for many years for drinks, meals and, before Danski took over the hotel part of the business, accomodation, it is sad to have to report on the recent decline in standards. 6 of us went in for apres ski drinks at...around 5pm last Wednesday. 2 already had a drink and they were sitting at a table for 4. There were no other tables free in the main bar to accommodate 6 as some had been laid up for dinner, so we went to the section at the rear left where there were free tables and sat down. The new barman immediately came and told us we couldn 't sit there as it had been cleaned ready for the evening 's dinner although no tables were set . We were surprised at this frosty welcome but moved back to the main section of the bar, sitting at 2 different tables. We were deliberating what to do when, a few minutes later, the same barman approached us and asked what we wanted to drink. We said that if we couldnt all sit together then we didn 't want to stay, to which he replied Ce n 'est pas grave It doesn 't matter . How incredibly rude. We went to another bar for our drinks. There 's now doubt that The Arbina has the best position on the Tignes snow front, so it will always get plenty of business, but there 's a plethora of other good bars and restaurants around now and I 'll be taking my business elsewhere in future. It seems like the barman needs to go on a basic customer service course...

C'est un peu l'usine dans ce restaurant, avec beaucoup de monde et des serveuses qui courent dans tous les sens. La qualité du repas n'était pas très bonne, notamment les lasagnes qui baignaient dans la sauce. Comme tous les restaurants à Tignes, aucun n'est spécialisé et ils proposent à la fois les spécialités italiennes, américaines, savoyardes et bretonnes. Mais du coup, la qualité n'est pas là et les prix sont onéreux.
