My family came to Layaly Beirut for lunch after driving to Interlaken from Zurich to see the nearby…read morelakes. It was snowing outside and we were hungry after our drive, and we found that the food here was just what we needed to continue our trip. For a family of five we ordered three skewer platters (two chicken and one beef kebabs). Since we were particularly hungry, I think that we would have benefitted from ordering another plate or two (each plate came with two kebabs), but it was all delicious! We especially liked the bread that they provided, and I enjoyed the hummus and baba ghanoush as well. The meat was very tender and soft, and the wait staff was also very courteous. After a few days of eating European food, it was nice to just eat some chicken and rice. I won't be returning to Switzerland for a while, so I unfortunately won't be able to come back to Layaly Beirut, but I leave this review here so that others may try the tasty Lebanese cuisine served at this establishment.

Dinner is downstairs, and then there's a really cool bar upstairs with couches and little balcony-style seating where you can hang out before or after dinner. Our waitress was great from the start and took such good care of us. We ordered the beef carpaccio and the duck to start, and both were incredible. The carpaccio was hands down one of the best I've had in Switzerland. The duck came with a slaw and sliced apples, which was such a perfect pairing (srsly so good. For mains, my boyfriend ordered the lamb duo and said it was amazing, especially with the wine risotto. I ordered the cordon bleu and... wow. Just wow. It came with fries and ketchup, but the cordon bleu itself was unreal. As soon as you cut into it, the cheese inside is just chef's kiss!!!! We didn't even make it to dessert because we were completely full (which says a lot). Between the food, the service, and the setting, this place is absolutely worth it. Such a special experience. Highly recommend.

After we walked in and requested a table for five, the host looked us up and down, then with a smack of his lips told us "about a fifty minute wait". Clearly not true as over 75% of the restaurant was empty. Immediately, I went outside and successfully made a reservation for 3 minutes later. Of course, I did not actually dine there after receiving that sort of welcome. Try not to judge your customers by looks or clothing. You just missed out on a large cheque. To those who like matches or need a light: I will give one star for having a big jar of matchbooks. Just go down and grab some! Pretty nice and compact.

The food - I was so surprised to have such good Persian food in the middle of Switzerland of all places. I started with the mint cucumber yogurt, which was refreshing on a hot day. For my main, I went with the barg kebab, which came with a piece of tadig (crunchy rice) which I loved. Nicely cooked kebab. The nice owner seeing that I was dining alone brought me a complimentary dessert - sholeh zard which was great, sweet, but not too sweet as it should be. I highly recommend you put this restaurant on your list to try when visiting Montreux.

We decided to keep it simple for dinner on our first night in Montreux and ate at La Terrasse in Le…read morePetit Palais, which is across the street from the main structure of the Montreux Palace hotel. For some reason, our names were not in the reservation book despite being confirmed as having a spot, but we were still able to get seated at one of the tables closest to the lake. I should note that while this is advertised as a 'waterfront' dining location, the seats are not actually right by the water, and the view of the lake is obstructed by trees that are on the promenade behind Le Petit Palais. It wasn't a huge deal, as I still enjoyed the relaxed ambiance, but there is a difference between 'waterfront' and 'close to the water'. Our servers were great at getting our appetizers and entrees out quickly, but like many restaurants in Europe, the service slows to a crawl / disappears once you hit the dessert courses. The drink selection is decently well-rounded; I had a local microbrew that was pretty solid (if not the best tripel I have had). We started out the main course with some grilled veggies, as we have been a bit deficient in eating enough of these during our time here so far. They were fine, if a bit generic; the main aspects I enjoyed were the mushrooms, which were spongy and absorbed most of the other flavors in the dish, as well as the thin slices of Parmesan, which added a dash of flavor to what otherwise was a pretty boring plate. For the main, my wife did the eggplant parmesan, which is far less fried than it is in the U.S. - a nice change of pace - but also seemed to lack as much of the flavor as well. My braised beef cheeks were marinated in a rich sauce that seemed to have a dash of red wine reduced in it, along with a very hearty beef overtone. While most of the meat was quite succulent and fell apart, there were other parts that had a bit of fat on them and would have been welcome to not be on the plate. The carrots they were served with were nice and served as a good accompaniment to the rest of the dish. Dessert was profiteroles with strawberries and 'yogurt' ice cream, which was lighter than I had thought it would be (a good thing); the combination of the fresh berries with the light pastry was a great way to finish the meal (and probably my favorite dish of the evening). La Terrasse is a nice, casual spot to grab a bite. It's not going to knock your socks off, and it will probably feel a bit overpriced (like everything in this country, practically), but you can take in a view of the mountains across the lake or the sunset and feel like you are in a different place. It's worth a visit, if not a place to eat at every night you are in town.
