Fodor's Expert Review La Brasserie des Artistes

The Brass," as it's known, has one of the area's best patios, situated in the square where people-watching is as entertaining as the street performers and free concerts. With this kind of location the food doesn't have to be outstanding, but you can nevertheless get reasonably priced bistro fare, from burgers to steaks. It opens for breakfast with an assortment of egg dishes and keeps going until the après-ski crowd finally departs around midnight. As popular as this place is, tables turn over quickly so getting a seat doesn't take long.
