Fantastic meal. 100% worth leaving village for. Excellent fondue, great hot stone meals, reasonable prices. Kids loved it all & so did parents. Great ambience as well. Highly recommend
Hot stone cooking is a fun experience for all ages. Highly recommend the bison. Extensive wine selection. Exceptionally warm staff. Mind blowing profiteroles. Can't wait to return.
C'est la Vie is a charming spot in Mont Tremblant village, away from the hustle & bustle of the ski resort. The pierrade (cooked on a hot stone at your table) was excellent, & our server was very helpful.
You truly made this New Year's Eve unforgettable. We've been coming to Tremblant for four years now, & every NYE has meant standing in the cold, waiting in long lines for village restaurants that-at best-are just okay. But this year, we stumbled upon C'est La Vie & booked a reservation just days before.
The hot stone cooking experience was such a fun & memorable twist-our kids (11 & 15) absolutely loved it. The food was outstanding, the service warm & attentive, & the pricing was more than fair for a holiday evening. What a refreshing change. Thank you for elevating our tradition.
Beautiful restaurant with a warm & inviting atmosphere. The staff were very attentive & friendly. The food was delicious & nicely presented - especially the dishes served on the hot stone, which were fun to cook.
The salad appetizer is not worth the money, lettuce & some carrot with sauce & a few chunks of tomato & I think it was $16. The dinner was awesome as we got the hot stone. Expensive but I think worth the experience as you cook it yourself on the hot stone. My partner got the French onion soup to start & he enjoyed that. I had a dessert the parfait & it was delicious. Service was good! They had lots of options for me as a celiac. Overall a pleasant expensive experience.
Unique dining experience with dinner on a hot stone. So many choices common & unique. I had the beef, chicken & seal. The seal has the texture slightly similar to liver BUT DEFINITELY NOT the taste. It's very good. Duck leg was deliciously tender. Dessert we had a cherry compote & a tiramisu.
We had a wonderful meal at C'est la vie. We started with the goat cheese & honey appetizer, which was served with a green salad & was absolutely delicious. I had a pierrade with rack of lamb, filet mignon & shrimp. It comes with fries & three different sauces, & was delicious. You can cook your meet to taste on the hot stone, & it also keeps it hot throughout your meal. My husband had the Candian plate - elk, bison & venison. He said it was delicious & his only feedback was that it would have been good to know which meat was which. We were too full for dessert, but the selection looked delicious. We would definitely go back.
We got the hot stone dinner & it was such a cool experience, if you are from out of town this is a must try experience!! Great service, great food, awesome atmosphere

Cosy, good food, but rather expensive. It was my 3rd time, & was very much looking forward to it. The first 2 times were in 2018 & 2019…which in my memory were better in terms of food, atmosphere, & overall price. Still a nice place to check out in the old village if you like fondue & Pirade (meat on hot stone)
The house specialty - cooking on a hot stone at your table- is fun & delicious! From soup to dessert, everything is consistently great. Cozy table in a relaxed atmosphere. We go many times a year!
It was our 3rd time dining here & we will be back next time we come to Tremblant. We love the food & the unique hot stone cooking experience ( including our 3 kids that are picky eaters). Thank you!
My wife recommended this restaurant for us to visit after a day well spent at resort snow-boarding , I love to experiment & experience with food & my wife told me they have variety of meats, she is extremely good at picking up places but this place literally ruined my experience with food & their ridiculous prices , for mains my wife ordered duck & all they served was 100gms of duck meat grilled without dressings & then just poured over with grocery store sauce on top along with steamed vegetables , dude trust me you can do much better job at home with those ingredients without shelling out 40 bucks, I ordered hot stone for 50 bucks with three meats & all I got was roughly 125 gms of mixed meat which, were elk, deer & bison , they came on hot stone without any dressings & steamed vegetables again , but on the side they served three spoons of different dippings which is exactly kraft combo of three you buy for making kids lunch, this was pretty much of an experience which is given to prisoners, that's the amount of hard work I felt which was done with the food served , dining at their restaurant gave me much confidence to start my own next door with same ingredients bcoz there is nothing to do , all they serve is steam vegetables & just grilled meat or raw meat. University students living away from their mother can do much better job than guys in their kitchen. Just a waste of money for fancy name & overly reviewed place.
