Known for being the most popular restaurant in the village, Munchie is a trendy place with amazing food, drinks, and a great mix of people.
You will definitely run into someone you would like to talk to, and the menu combines traditional french with scandinavian cooking, spiced with asian influences.
I was first here on New Years eve for drinks later in the night. It was so fun! But crowded. I feel like everyone who was out on new years were fighting to order a drink.
I came back with my friend and her family for dinner on New Years Day. The food definitely lived up to my expectations derived from recommendations from my friend's family who are regulars. I had the Duck Teriyaki, and it melted in my mouth. I have never experience such slow service tough. But figured, who is not slow on New Years Day after all...
Locking forward to come back and try more of Munchies unique menu!
This is a must in Chamonix, especially if you are feeling "cheesed" out! This is some of the best sushi and small plate combos I have had. They book up fast so reserve your table! Or, enjoy time at the (small) bar with the wonderful waitstaff. Cocktails and wine are also very good!
Little did I know, but in the Savoyard French dialect, "Munchie" translates to "delicious, share plate cuisine." Munchie was recommended to my group by our local guides numerous times, and after a few days of trying to get a reservation, we finally got in. Each plate is meant for sharing, and since all the food was stupendous, I don't have a particular recommendation. Try as much as your group's stomachs can handle.
The location is a bit off the touristic path. However its a very trendy and cool joint (read hipster) and the sandwiches are just great.
Went there late on a Tuesday night and we both had the filet de boeuf (came with fries, a salad and two kinds of sauces - one a very tasty spicy bernaise).
Absolutely fantastic! I am a beef lover and love to go to upscale steakhouses. The filet I had there was the best in a long time. Very good beef perfectly cooked and the overall package with the sauces and sides was just perfect. Loved the fusion touch with the spicy bernaise.
Will definitely come back next time in Chamonix!
Ok, I'll start off by saying all the places in Chanomix are amazing. Some random coffee shop around the corner had beef tartar on the menu and it was the best beef tartar I ever had...
That is until we went to Munchie.
It was our last night in Chamoix and this place was highly recommended to us. We got 6 different appetizers, including all sorts of sushi and wontons and raw meats... everything was great. We all got different entrees and shared them, each one was better than the next.
The service was spot on and even put up with our 'Murikan attitude.
Highly recommended restaurant for when you're in Chamonix.
One of the best restaurants in Chamonix! Very fair prices, innovative cuisine, bravo presentation and excellent service! The girls are cute too!
This place is amazing .. We came here on the recommendation of Yelp and its customer reviews ... The flavor combinations are superb ...I have never eaten food this good ... It's worth coming back to Chamonix just to eat here again ... Loved it
We really enjoyed our meal at Munchie. The variety was good. I really loved my seafood curry. I also had the salmon sashimi and the seabass carpaccio. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. We had three vegans dining with us and they had interesting choices on the menu too. A great cabbage dish and some lovely spring rolls.
Great place to start the night at with a lovely dinner.
One of my more favorite places to dine at in Cham
The Swordfish Udon Noodles is really tasty.
Highly recommend this place.
We had a fantastic dining experience. The food was delicious and presented well. It was a great value for the quality. We will return. We highly recommend.
Absolutely amazing food!!! One of the best places I've been and a fantastic combination of French and Asian cuisine.
Repeatedly the best of the best in Chamonix. French/Asian fusion of the highest quality. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. Duck is five star, their specials are always innovative and a great presentation. If this restaurant was in San Francisco it would be the hottest place in town. You will not be disappointed. Great value and a wonderful discovery. I could eat there every night....it's that good!
I come from California to Chamonix for this great find!
Asian fusion, done pretty well.
Unusual to go for Asian fusion at a ski resort, but if you're in need of a break from meat, cheese and potatoes, this will suit you fine.
Generally classy, nice setting. Staff all speak English like everywhere else.
Food is good, with interesting takes on French classics, likens creative use of fois gras. Fish is fresh, but you are far from an ocean... Winner might have been they're baby squid.
All in all would recommend if you need a change of pace from Classic Savoyard dishes.

I visited Munchie whilst on holiday in Chamonix in February 2011. When it was mentioned at the table, as a suggestion of where to go when the chef at the chalet had his night off I was a little put off by the name. It sounds a little like a fast food restaurant and that wasn't what I wanted.
On the recommendation of two guests a group of us decided to give it a go. Even though they told me the food was of Asian influence I expected a naff decor and the like. I was very pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is quite intimate and had quite modern decor. Lots of fairy light adorned the place and those eating in there appeared to be quite well dressed and it had an upmarket feel. My only worry was the large dog lazing by the bar. I'm an animal lover but I don't agree with pets in restaurants.
The menu had just the right amount of food, so often the munu at these kind of places is so big it takes an hour to chose and you always end up with food envy. Everything appealed and was reasonably priced although if I had been eating out every night I may have gone for a cheaper option.
Two of the group opted for Sushi to start and my friend and I went for the Tom Yum soup. each one of was very pleased and finished everything in front of us. We did wait rather a long time to be served but it was well worth the wait. I then opted for the Duck Teriyaki and my fellow diners had a selection of beef and chicken dishes. Everyone agreed they had food envy when mine arrived and it was possibly one of the nicest duck dishes I had ever eaten. It melted in the mouth and was oozing with flavour.
The staff were all very friendly and attentive, although service was a tad slow. We were in there for a number of hours but we weren't in a rush so we just sat back, chatted, enjoyed the wine and patted the dog!
Excellent food, consistently friendly staff, cozy and chic atmosphere. One of the few restaurants in Chamonix that would hold it's own anywhere in the world and our town favourite for the price range. Bravo!

Superbe repas au Munchie, la carte à changé depuis l'année dernière et j'ai moins apprécié les nouveaux goût mais c'était purement personnel.
Le reste du groupe a adoré et les desserts sont exceptionnels !
Je recommande vivement si vous aimez la bonne cuisine !!
Parfait! Juste surprise que personne, de l'accueil au service, ne parle un mot de français. Nous sommes à chamonix certes, et tout le monde parle anglais. Nous compris. Mais je ne suis pas sure de pouvoir parler exclusivement français dans un restaurant suédois ou anglais si je devais m'y rendre pour dîner. Cela me semble juste normal de parler français en France. Au moins un minimum:-)
Excellente cuisine asiatique, serveurs(euses) anglais (es) agréables. Beaucoup d'originalité, concept de partage top. On s'est régalés.
Munchie a réouvert en 2021 avec un nouveau concept, des plats a connotation latino revisités avec brio! Au programme Ceviche, épis de mais grillé, tacos raffinés, de la fraicheur dans l’assiette avec coriandre fraiche, avocats, citron vert, etc… service souriant et efficace, cadre agréable dans une rue piétonne. De très bons cocktails ajoutent à l’expérience. Très réussie.
Superbe restaurant avec des plats excellents, un service de qualité et une bonne ambiance.
C’est juste délicieux, parfois étonnant, des plats à partager, des saveurs différentes par petite touche !
L’accueil est à améliorer
Quand on est français on préfère le menu en français …plus facile à déchiffrer
Et si elles pouvaient sourire un peu
super restaurant aux saveurs originales. Tout était bon, le service aussi mais les plats peut être un peu long à arriver.
J'y retournerai pour tester les autres plats.
L’une des meilleures cuisine asiatique que j’ai pu goûter!
Le concept est de prendre plusieurs plats par personne qui sont amenés dans l’ordre choisi par le cuisinier. Prévoyez un petit budget et ne vous attendez pas à être rassasié avec une seule assiette!
Superbe découverte. Les plats sont fins et originaux. On reviendra.
Très bons restaurant! Je donne pas 5 étoiles juste pour le service qui était un peu lent et parce que le serveur est arrivé à table avec la bouteille de vin déjà ouverte.
