Restaurant URSUS, Fine dining restaurant in Val Claret, Tignes, France
Restaurant Ursus is located in Val Claret and features a dining room surrounded by 390 real fir trees encircling the tables. The interior is completed by a ceiling with a leaf pattern that creates a forest-like setting.
Chef Clement Bouvier founded the restaurant in 2017 after gaining experience in New York and Shanghai. He collaborated with renowned chefs like Jean-François Piège to develop the dining concept.
The name comes from the Latin word for bear, honoring the last brown bears that roamed the Savoie mountains. This choice reflects a deep connection to the region's wild past and natural heritage.
The restaurant is located on Rue du Val Claret and operates only during the winter season from December to May. It helps to know that it closes every Sunday when planning your reservation.
The establishment earned a Michelin star, reflecting its culinary achievements. Notably, about 80 percent of ingredients come from the Haute-Tarentaise region, showing its strong commitment to local sourcing.
