Say cheese! This place is all about cheese and you gotta check it out if you called yourself a cheese lover! Gotta go online to make reservation or you won’t stand a chance!

Our server asked if we wanted still or sparkling water, which are both paid options as we found out later. Our server did not mention the option for free tap water so there is a slight feeling of being tricked. Also note that tax is added after the bill is calculated; compare receipt and the menu prices in the pictures attached. Other than the above complaints, our food was very good. In the pictures below, the rectangle item is La Burger, the square item is La Raclette, and the six sided item is La Vegan. Yes, they do have a vegan menu item! They also have a coat check, which is a nice convenience.

When exploring Niseko village on foot one day, we were intrigued to try raclette on offer at The Alpinist. A true European experience in Japan from the moment you arrive (this restaurant took our coats for us), the waiters were attentive, friendly, and enthusiastic. Of particular mention was Claire who looked after us exceptionally from start to finish. She helped us decide on our meal from their large selection on offer and did so with great passion and verve. Thank you, Claire, for making our first raclette experience as authentic and enjoyable as you did!! Cheers!
