We have the Arpette, and the Blanche Murée. There is the Altiport café, and I suppose you could include the restaurant at the Chantel complex. But that's pretty much it. (For more on food in Les Arcs, click here.)
The closure of the Aiguille Grive Restaurant, run by Les Arcs' legends Gilles and Annick, was a big loss. This was quite a few years ago now. The building was demolished, rebuilt as an upmarket hotel, but its opening has been delayed. It will be coming back next season - website here.

| The Aiguille Grive, 11 March 2013 |
The good news for the remainder of this season anyway, is that Gilles is back! The restaurant attached to the hotel is open, and a review, courtesy of the Avenir et Animation des Arcs site, states:
"The Aiguille Grive restaurant has reopened. The decor is more contemporary,
but still in the 'spirit of Les Arcs'. The ambiance is the same, Gilles Christophe returning to welcome his clients.
At lunchtimes, simple food is served either on the south-facing terrace
or in an airy dining room with great views of the mountains.
In the evening, with a fire burning, there's the chance to dine in a friendly and relaxing atmosphere.
To reserve, call 04 79 40 20 30."
Season 2013/14 will also see another restaurant on the home runs to Arc 1800 - its foundations are already in place, just below the Transarc middle station. I imagine there may also be more happening at as Edenarc takes shape. At the moment it's almost disarmingly low key and quiet.
