Love, love, love the Raclette Factory…read more Really wanted to have another Raclette experience while in Switzerland. The first was in Lucerne and we loved it! Walked to the Raclette Factory from our hotel. Sat at a community table with a family from Argentina. They were so sweet. Their eleven year old was so animated and his parents were the sweetest. Fun to talk to them about travel, our mutual love of rollercoasters and science and the recent World Cup. The son loves Lamine Yamal. The dad is Team Messi. Our waiter, Flavio, made the evening our best choice. We really wanted to try a lot of different cheese flavors and combinations, so we had the Raclette All You Can Eat. Choose a couple of cheeses. Plain. Smoke. Garlic. Chili. White Wine. Red Wine. Blue cheese. Goat. Sheep. Truffle. Add toppings. It comes with pickles and pearl onions. Pickles and melted Raclette cheese. Unbelievably delicious. Add more toppings. Small potatoes, bread or mashed potatoes. So good! Started with the truffle and the red wine with the works, potatoes, mashed potatoes and cubes of bread. The truffle was my favorite of the cheeses and both the mashed potatoes and small potatoes were delicious. I think at the end we tried all of the cheeses but the original. We were stuffed!! Thank you to Flavio who really made our experience at the Raclette Factory a highlight of our visit to Zurich. Service was amazing and he gave us great recommendations. Definitely a night to remember.

We were highly recommended this place for fondue, and since trying fondue in Switzerland was on my…read morebucket list, I was excited to finally do it here. Overall, it was fairly good and definitely a fun first experience, but I do think there are probably some more hidden local spots in town that I'd try next time. My fondue was around $50 just for myself, which felt pretty expensive for essentially cheese, but of course, it is Switzerland and this is definitely a touristy spot. Almost everyone around us seemed to be visiting as well. I did really like how many different fondue options they had. There were tons of variations to choose from, including some with meat, although those were even more expensive. The house wine was also really good and paired nicely with everything. I'm glad I tried it once and had the experience, but I'm not sure I'd come back. Next time I'd probably seek out a smaller, more local fondue spot.

The fondue was good and I really enjoyed the combination of the creamy cheese with the different accompaniments--especially the fruit, which added a nice contrast. That said, it was good rather than mind-blowing. Service was great and our server was especially thoughtful with our friends' kid, bringing over a coloring book to keep them entertained. Such a sweet touch! We made a reservation by phone, which I'd recommend since the restaurant gets busy around dinner. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and very much what you want from a fondue restaurant. A nice place to experience Swiss fondue in Zurich, especially if you're looking for a cozy traditional setting.

With it's friendly service, good food and amazing ambiance, it was my favorite restaurant of our trip. We decided to order the Raclette and the Truffle Butter Fondue (39 CHF). The raclette was served with boiled potatoes and it was really fun being able to watch your own raclette melting at your table on the melter. While I enjoyed the raclette, I enjoyed the Truffle Butter Fondue even more. It was served with pieces of baguette bread and the fondue was so creamy and flavorful. It definitely had a strong truffle flavor which I really enjoyed. Just as enjoyable as the food was the ambiance. Chasalp is located on a hill overlooking Zurich so you have a nice view of the city as you walk from the parking lot to the restaurant. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available but with how beautiful the scenery was, we definitely had to sit outside. Cows roam around the lush green grass as you enjoy your meal and everything feels so peaceful and serene. Our servers were very friendly and helpful and checked on us often to make sure everything was okay. While we didn't have any kids with us, the outdoor space also looked to be kid-friendly with a nearby swing set for children to use along with crayons and drawing sheets at the table to keeps kids occupied. I had such a wonderful and relaxing experience and definitely recommend it if you're in Zurich and looking for a delicious fondue option.

It is basically a mix of melted cheese and wine served with stale bread cubes and potatoes. No offense to those who enjoy and like eating fondue. The restaurant is located in a very touristy area and we had to make reservations. The staff was super friendly and attentive. We paid around $80USD for the fondue. Definitely not worth it. Again, it is one of the dishes that you must try at least once when in Switzerland.

I was craving fondue, but then I discovered raclette…read more Fondue House Du Pont is a great option for anyone craving an authentic fondue experience in Lucerne. This cozy spot offers a wide selection of delicious fondues with unique flavors. Make a reservation for the patio as the restaurant's prime location gives you an amazing view of the Chapel Bridge and Old Town Lucerne. Our classic cheese fondue was tasty, but I loved the raclette! What is raclette? Raclette is a Swiss dish in which a wheel of semi-soft cow's‑milk cheese, traditionally from Valais, is heated and the melted layer is scraped onto potatoes, bread, and pickled vegetables. Raclette refers both to the cheese and the dish. The name comes from the French racler, meaning "to scrape," describing how the melted cheese is served. Our traditional raclette had a wedge of cheese that was heated on a special tabletop electric raclette machine. It was served with bowls filled with boiled red potatoes, cornichons, tiny, pickled pearl onions, steamed veggies, cubes of bread and sliced fruits. Loved the melted cheese that topped the fruits, veggies, pickles, potatoes and bread. Note: Although they do have chocolate fondue here, many Swiss Fondue restaurants do not.

She was very helpful in deciding what to order, but she disappeared the rest of our meal. It was unfortunate because we wanted to get more bread, potatoes and other things, but decided against it since she was not available to ask for those. The food itself was decent. My favorite fondue cheese was the herb/spiced one. It was very flavorful. The restaurant was very busy and the staff were frantic the entire time we were there. The food was good but was hoping for better service :(

Our flight to Zürich had us arriving in the early evening and we were going to be banished to a…read morehotel near the airport. Ugh. Knowing that we'd be tired after a long flight but would also want to maximize our limited time in Zürich, I did a Yelp search for Swiss food by map location and found Borni's Baizli in Oerlikon. I made a reservation using the online request form on their website and received a confirmation right away. When it became apparent that our flight would arrive late and that our dinner would be delayed by an hour, I again messaged the restaurant via their website. When we finally showed up, the friendly manager asked if I was the guy with the delayed flight. He seated us right away, no problem, in a nice windowside table. The two of us ordered the fondue (28f) as well as a mixed salad (greens with small stacks of fresh and pickled carrots, cucumbers, beets, radishes) and the more straightforward (and terrific) green salad. The salads were very fresh - and also enormous, but we are rabbits who enjoy our veggies. The fondue was tasty and you definitely could taste and feel the liquor on your tongue. It was so good and warm, accompanied by a big basket of cubed bread. The waiter was so committed to our enjoyment, he suggested that we not eat our salads first as he thought the fondue was at its best when it first hits the table. So, a little fondue, a little salad, a little more cheese...it was a lovely, leisurely meal. We didn't finish all of our fondue. It's just a lot more cheese than we're used to, though the manager/cook let us know that he made it a little larger than usual as he thought we'd be particularly hungry after our flight. We seemed to be the only tourists in the place that evening as everyone else spoke German with the waiter. Anyway, he fared just fine in English and they've got a helpful English menu available as well. Also, almost everyone else in the restaurant ordered one of the cordon bleu plates. The chicken looked really terrific and was so crisp that I could hear the cutlets crunch when they were cut into. I can only imagine that the cheesy goodness on the inside was perfect. I wished we'd ordered one of those, too, but it would have just been way too much food for us. An easy 15-minute ride by bus or S tram, Oerlikon (roll the r!) is a good-sized and diverse neighborhood that's midway between the city center and the airport. There were surely no tourists around here, which we just love. Borni's is not in a quaint historic building and has no view of a pretty rushing river. But prices for fondue and wine here are also a good 20-30% cheaper than the visitor-focused restaurants that we were also considering. Borni's Baizli offers pleasant service, good food, a very fairly priced meal, and a chance to see where real people live in Zürich. I'd return for sure. And next time, I'd be ordering some of that crunchy chicken for myself!

One funny thing: the water was more expensive than the beer and soda, but that seems pretty typical in Switzerland! The restaurant itself has so much history and great atmosphere. The inside was a little loud for us, so we sat outside, which we really enjoyed. Just be prepared to share a table with another couple if you sit outside -- that's pretty common in Switzerland.
