We got the "half and half" fondue of organic cheeses, and enjoyed it with the bread, potatoes, steamed veggies, and bratwurst. We also had a bottle of Le Volte, as recommended by the sommelier - and Italian wine that paired well with the cheeses. The nutty flavor of the cheese was delightful with the accompaniments. Our servers were very helpful and present, but not obtrusive. Would definitely eat here again!!

This was our last day in Switzerland, and we called them believing we might get lucky with a table…read morelast minute and we did, that was a wonderful surprise. The restaurant appears small from the outside, when inside its a nice size with an outdoor patio overlooking the river, a little too cold to use that day. Completely packed when we arrived around 8:15pm and we could see there was absolutely no space for even one more person. Away from the tourist crowd, very traditional, family at dinner style environment and very loud. We loved it. Menu was a fixed 4 course dinner that changes every day I assume, so everyone was basically having the exact same meal. We knew this before we came and had made sure we would be ok with the fixed menu items when we had called for reservations, I would highly recommend doing this if there are any picky food eaters in the group. The owner was there doing a lot of the work himself and that was great to see. Each of the courses were very well done, tuna on toast, salad, pasta (veal?) bolognese, seared tuna, desert. Salad was super fresh, pasta was perfectly el dente and sauce was tasty, tuna was perfectly seared. Did you notice anything missing here? The creativity element was not there, each of the dishes was too simple, and I was expecting a lot more on that front given the awesome ratings. One star taken off for that. Given the menu probably changes everyday, I am hopeful this is not the case on a daily basis. I would recommend this restaurant to those who are ok with the fixed menu style and who want to be surprised on the day, if not call ahead and confirm whats for dinner and the price before coming.

Pasta done right!…read more Since this restaurant was a suggestion from my Tour Director on my trip to Switzerland, I figured, what the hell? It is pasta, and Switzerland borders Italy, a country highly associated with pasta. What did I have to lose? I ordered the ravioli because it was highly suggested by the wait staff and it is everything you would expect in a homemade ravioli dish. Expensive? Sure. But you get what you pay for here. The meat special works best because you get some delicious ham with all of it, and it is already a generous portion. It was such a lovely meal that I thanked the staff for making it. Well done!

A couple things to know before going into this venture- This place smells STRONGLY of the beer…read morecheese they use in the fondu. I don't have issues with smells but if you have an aversion, you might want to avoid this place. We went on a chilly night and when we entered, it was SO HOT indoors, we opted to eat outside in the freezing cold because it was better than inside. I'm talking like standing in front of an open oven. I don't know how all the other patrons sat there through dinner. Truly amazing. When/if ordering the fondu, it only comes with bread squares. Order a small side of meat to supplement with that dish. Other than those tips, their by-the-glass menu was pretty great but they were very small pours. Be aware of that. And of course, like everything else in Switzerland, brace yourself for the tab. It's going to be a lot.
