Wood Restaurant In Valtournenche

tl;dr - amazing food, if you're in Cervinia and like fine dining - reserve a spot. Food - the most important thing in a restaurant, the food was exquisite. Delicious and perfectly cooked. Couldn't ask for more. Drink - we asked whether there was a juice pairing and were told that there was. We got 4 mocktails, which were really good, but didn't seem to pair with any of the dishes (and there was no obvious intention from the waiting staff to explain how they were paired). Service - the waiting staff were very kind, prompt and meticulous as you would expect from any Michelin starred restaurant. Two things that were weird, not taking away from the rating, but still worth a mention - 1. The vegetarian tasting menu is only 5 courses. I ordered the 7 course tasting menu and there were two dishes where my brother just sat and watched me eating. Have a 7 course vegetarian tasting menu, or remove the regular 7 course tasting menu! 2. Another party came in after we were seated that had a dog (which wasn't a service dog). We were not asked whether we were allergic to dogs, or even okay with having dogs in the restaurant (we didn't have a problem, but other people might!). It was odd..

Excellent restaurant with delicious food. Perfect service with one drawback: none of the servers speak French. The price is a bit steep, but the experience is still interesting.

My first time at a Michelin-starred restaurant wasn't just a dinner: it was an experience I'll cherish forever. My girlfriend and I experienced something I'd only imagined from afar for years. I come from a simple, humble family, where certain luxuries had never been within our reach. Yet, right here in Cervinia, the place where I grew up as a child amidst ski holidays and family memories, I was able to live out a little dream: sitting at a table in a Michelin-starred mountain restaurant, at 2,000 meters, suspended between the sky and snow-capped peaks. Every dish was a journey: unique combinations, carefully crafted, flavors that told different stories from Italy to Sweden, all the way to the Orient! The glasses of wine we tasted were rare, carefully crafted discoveries—not the classic, well-known bottles but niche ones—harmonies we'll never forget. But the most intense moment came when we asked for a photo with Chef Amanda Eriksson. Toward the end of dinner, she appeared before us: incredibly empathetic, her aura filling the room. My fiancée, who has struggled with eating disorders in the past, told her what she felt when she tasted a dish. In that moment, a sincere emotion lit up the Chef's eyes, a rare and powerful human connection. It wasn't just cooking anymore: it was sharing, emotion, healing. Cervinia has always been my refuge, the place that holds my most precious memories. But this evening, in this restaurant that seems suspended between magic and the peak of the Matterhorn, I added a memory that will never fade. See you soon, Cervinia. See you soon, Wood. See you soon, Chef Amanda ❤️

Excellent restaurant in the center of Cervinia. Wanting to try something different in the valley and being lovers of Northern Europe, we decided to try this restaurant. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the food is excellent; some dishes really surprised us, like the cappellacci and the tartare. The small pastries are fun and tasty. We'll be back to try the reindeer, as recommended by the chef.

A Cervinia per un weekend decidiamo di provare questo ristorante stellato; più che una cena è stato un viaggio all'interno di sapori differenti, dalla Svezia alla Val D'Aosta. Il menu (almeno in questo periodo) è fisso con due scelte : 4 portate o 6 portate, abbiamo optato per 4 portate; si inizia con una entrée della cucina molto particolare, poi si passa al salmone Neozelandese marinato, una scarola grigliata molto particolare poi piatto forte : la renna!! Tutto veramente ottimo, sapori e accostamenti molto particolari... Come chiusura un dolce, crema alla vaniglia (riduttivo la descrizione...) con frutti di bosco. Carta dei vini ovviamente di "livello", abbiamo optato per un rosso della Val d'Aosta. Servizio impeccabile, tutti i piatti spiegati molto bene, nulla da eccepire. Per chi vuole provare "un'esperienza" più che una semplice cena .... assolutamente da provare!!
