What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Les Terrasses du Lac is celebrated for its stunning panoramic views of Lake Annecy and its refined, seasonal cuisine. Diners often praise the exceptional service and the quality of the dishes, particularly the desserts. However, some guests have noted that the dining experience can feel rushed, and a few have found the value to be less than expected for certain dishes.
"We arrived at 19:00 o clock with a reservation made with a quick phonecall. Interesting that they block 50 euro if you make the reservation online and in case of no show they charge you.
The place was empty when we arrived but by the time we finished our dinner it was Full. Food was good, service was excellent. We couldn't enjoy the view from the window as we had a table somewhere in the middle. Overall a good and very popular place to have a nice dinner while visiting Annecy"

"A fantastic experience. Magnificent setting with stunning views. The food was sensational. One of the best lunches and venues I’ve experienced. Highly recommend. Some of the descriptions of dishes were lost in translation, but it everything we ordered was superb."

"We had lunch here today. The views are absolutely stunning and the staff were friendly, but the overall dining experience was disappointing. Our food arrived within two minutes of ordering (arriving the same time as a bottle of coke), which felt rushed. The pork was fine but nothing special. The steak, however, was very chewy and came with a basic side of spinach/rocket leaves (the dressing was nice). For €30, it felt overpriced.
I mentioned the toughness of the steak to the waitress, and she replied, “It’s not our fault, it’s the cut of meat,” and blamed their butcher. That begs the question: why serve that cut of meat?
The experience felt hurried from start to finish, plates were cleared the moment we finished, and when we passed on dessert, the waiter immediately said, “Okay, just the bill then.” We were in and out in under 40 minutes.
Come for the view, but don’t expect much from the food or the atmosphere."
