Megeve, France

Renowned for its breathtaking views of Mont Blanc, the signature mountain restaurant of Four Seasons Hotel Megève, Idéal 1850, blends timeless charm with fresh inspiration in its latest transformation.

A New Vision, Enhanced by Giorgio Armani

Idéal 1850 embarks on an exclusive collaboration with Giorgio Armani, showcasing the elegance of the Armani Neve collection, featured in the latest season of Emily in Paris. This winter, luxurious tableware, cushions, and refined accessories bring the essence of the Dolce Vita to this high-altitude retreat.

A Heritage Rooted in Family and Tradition

Nestled in the heart of Megève, Idéal 1850 has been more than a destination - it is a cornerstone of the Rothschild family’s story. Generations have gathered here, fostering a spirit of conviviality that defines the restaurant. As a treasured family haunt, it captures the warmth and elegance of alpine living, offering guests an authentic glimpse into its storied history.

Culinary Excellence Meets Local Heritage

Chef Filippo Rassetti introduces a thoughtfully curated menu celebrating the region’s alpine produce sourced from local farms. Guests can delight in both new creations and beloved classics, such as the iconic Mac Rothschild burger and the traditional boîte chaude - a warm, melted cheese dish accompanied by potatoes, cured meats, and salad.

A Celebration of Atmosphere and Elegance

Complementing the culinary offerings, the ambiance is elevated by a Giorgio Armani-curated playlist and live DJ sets on select dates, crafting a sophisticated yet upbeat atmosphere.

Exclusive Experiences at Idéal 1850

Open daily from 11:30 am to 3:30 pm, the restaurant also offers exclusive buyout opportunities for private lunch or dinner celebrations. Evening events, weather permitting, promise unforgettable moments against the stunning alpine backdrop.
