I cannot comment on the taste of the food since we did not stay. Based on the many yelp and Google reviews of this restaurant (and the 650 wine selections) my party of 5 attempted to eat here as our one night out on a vacation in Switzerland. Parking is metered and must be paid in Swiss frank coins. The exterior was absolutely beautiful! The interior has such a strong negative cheese smell it that it was distracting. The employees that were there when we arrived only spoke French which is odd in a town near resorts and in a country with 4 national languages. We attempted to speak in English, and Germany with no luck. The worst part was the outrageous prices. Sharing was not something that they would work with, for example the fondue was large enough to share but that even if we only wanted 1 pot it would be still be the same price per person. The fondue with bread alone was 25$ a person. The most inexpensive wine selections were about 20$ for a glass (not bottle) We found that for fondue with a selection of meat/breads, and one glass of wine it would be 70$ per person. read more

I am abashed to confess that despite my four years of study in the same city, I never visited Château de Villa till I went back on vacation two years after graduation. On the upside, I think that made me appreciate the experience even more. Château de Villa is perhaps the single best destination to appreciate the wine, cheese, and cured meats of the Valais region. Particularly if you're a fan of Raclette, instead of just choosing one cheese, the restaurant actually takes you of a "tour" through 4-5 cheeses, with a decent portion of each. You then can ask for more of one that you particularly like. Each cheese is explained in a fair amount of detail, and while the waiter was generally able to express almost everything in English, it did help that some of us could speak French. The Fondue was of course, excellent. The selection of wines? Top notch. But what was a bit of an unexpected surprise was that I didn't know they also had specialty cured meats. They had a few types of air cured pork that were made from a specific breed of mountain pig. While nothing like Iberico, it was absolutely delicious, and a great complement to the cheeses we were having. The next time I'm in Sierre? I'm going back again. read more
