The story
Carré des Sens sits on Place Monge in central Chambéry, an intimate restaurant where chef Jean Bernard Verjus expresses his modern cuisine. The establishment earned a Michelin Recommended distinction for 2026, reflecting consistent quality and a clear culinary vision. The setting is straightforward and inviting, with outdoor seating for pleasant weather and the ability to host private parties.
Verjus is both owner and chef, and his presence defines the experience. The kitchen works around a weekly changing menu – the Menu de la Semaine – which allows him to highlight seasonal ingredients. Reservations are taken exclusively by phone, a detail that underscores the personal service.
The restaurant serves dinner Tuesday through Saturday, with lunch available on select days. The space is wheelchair accessible, and payment is accepted by cheque or VISA. The focus remains on the plate: a concise, evolving take on modern French cuisine that keeps guests returning.
