The Pavilion provides a unique and luxurious experience that is unmatched in the Valley, and is exclusive to Val de Vie Estate.

We invite all residents and estate guests to embrace and enjoy the refined atmosphere the restaurant provides.

    The food was superb. We absolutely enjoyed it. We devoured it with relish. The pasta with prawns were cooked to perfection. Truly good value for money. The staff were super friendly and made us feel welcome from the get go. The service we received from Hanneli was excellent. We had a 180 degree view of the mountain with the manicured garden right in front of us. We will most certainly return for the other dishes we were not able to order. See you soon‼️🎶

    My dad had the steak special and the steak was so tough he had to send it back for a new one. Otherwise we had a lovely evening.
