    One of my favorite homey meals in Zermatt that serves traditional Swiss food! Nice, cozy vibe inside and friendly service. We got the truffle fondue (~30 CHF), raclette (8.5 CHF), rosti (~22CHF), pear sorbet (1 scoop 3.5 CHF), and hugo spritz. Raclette is an appetizer that cones with a potato, a pickle, and onions. You can share the fondue between two people - this was the better fondue experience I had, more mild and easier to eat than the stinkier fondue I had in another restaurant. Get the truffle one if you like truffle :) The rosti was great - felt like a simple breakfast meal with rosti (potato), egg, and ham. I ate this with tabasco and ketchup which I would recommend. Hugo spritz was yummy too! Would dine here again.

    Yelped this and went because of the good reviews. We ordered the cheese fondue, vegetarian tartar and rosti with harm and egg. We were disappointed at the cheese fondue that we had had very high hopes for. The alcohol flavor was just too strong for our liking. The rosti with harm egg was good and loved the crispiness of the potato (just like harsh browns in the US), and we also enjoyed the vegetable tartar. We were shocked to find that they charged us almost $14 for the glass water, that's just ridiculous to me. Why do they charge for water? Thought Swiss ppl have free water fountains everywhere free for everyone!

    The dishes we had at Pinte were awesome. The service was also exceptional. The waitstaff was patient and spoke English (very helpful since our German was limited). If you're in the Zermatt are, I highly recommend stopping in for the fondue!

    For our second and final night in Zermatt, my boyfriend and I wanted to try this fondue place (located inside Hotel Pollux) that we didn't get a chance to try on the first night. So we came in at around 8 and it was pretty packed, but we still managed to get a table. To start, we ordered the green salad (6.50 Fr) - we had been eating so much cheese on this trip that we felt like we needed some greens. There was a little too much dressing, so be sure to ask for it on the side. Either way, we were happy to be eating some vegetables. Then, we decided to order one entree and one fondue to share. For the entree, we went with the venison sausage with onion sauce and rösti (22 Fr). The sausage was just okay but it might be because I'm not a huge fan of venison. The rösti was not as good as other rösti we've had throughout our trip, but I had the idea of dipping it into the fondue and it improved it. For the fondue, we did the cheese fondue with fried bacon (27 Fr). The cheese was good but I wouldn't recommend it. The bacon made it a bit too much. It was between this one and the cheese fondue with truffles and I wish we had gotten that one instead. The fondue comes with cubes of bread for you to dip. Finally, for dessert, we went with the chocolate fondue (12 Fr). The chocolate was nice and smooth, and was served with a side of fresh bananas, melon, and pineapple. Our waiter happily refilled our fruit place (free of charge) when he saw we ran out - which leads me to my next note: service was great in there. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here but the food wasn't the best that I had in Switzerland.

    We had the cheese fondue and venison rosti. Food was prepared quickly and tasted amazing. Staff were also so lovely and friendly! Thank you!

    Exquisite Food!

    * Swiss local said the Swiss drink white wine or hot tea with fondue so the cheese doesn't…read morecoagulate and you feel yuck in your tummy. But I didn't feel like either and had water. I was fine but just a tip for ya! Lols I got cozy basement Swiss vibes here. We were seated right away on a weekday afternoon for lunch. Place was full and it's not a big restaurant so must be a popular spot. Zermatt is quite the happening spot! Ordered the fondue and the hubs and I were fine with the serving for one person so the pot was only halfway full. But if you and your other half are super hungry, better get two orders. This fondue had a white wine taste to it, which was good even though I preferred the garlic fondue I had in Lucerne. The brat and fries were delish! * Tipping is not mandatory in Switzerland. Of course if your server went above and beyond for you, feel free to round up on the check and I'm sure they would appreciate it. But I think the Swiss servers know we tip in America so when it was time to pay our bill, our waitress said "oh and if you would like to leave a tip, you can do so right here." Oh lawd so tacky and awkward but whattaya gonna do. But of course we tipped her even though she wasn't that personable and attentive. Lols

    Friendly server, beautiful old architecture and delicious fondue! We had the mushroom fondue and it…read morewas amazing! The bread and little potatoes very good. The wine choice the server helped me with very nice!

    Five stars without a doubt. Elegant ambiance. Love the sheepskin throughout. I dined on local…read moregrazed prime beef. The fillet was matured in Zermatt hay and you can really taste the hay. This while sitting below a photo of the black nosed Zermatt sheep. Wife had the lamb that was superb. This is a quintessential Zermatt experience. Top notch.

    We are a group of 9 and we wanted to dine at Restaurant Schäferstube after seeing a lot of good…read morereviews and recommendations from other people but Restaurant Schäferstube is full. I accidentally found Restaurant Julen, which is a sister restaurant of Restaurant Schäferstube, and in fact, it is in the same location but on the upper level of Restaurant Schäferstube. The most important thing is you can order the signature items of Restaurant Schäferstube from the menu of Restaurant Julen!!! So we decided to give it a try and I am so glad that we did! They don't accept reservations of more than 6 online, so I had to send an email to confirm and requested a window seat. I really like the atmosphere and the decorations of Restaurant Julen. Majority of us ordered the 'Grilled rack of lamb roasted pink on our wood grill' 2 courses from the SCHÄFERSTÜBLI GRILL. The lamb is soooooooo tender! I highly recommend this if you eat lamb, the lamb is special and unique in this region! Everyone was so happy with the food and service. We had a very good time there although we cannot stay late because we need to get up early to ski. If you cannot make a reservation at Restaurant Schäferstube, come here. If you just want to have the grilled lamb from Restaurant Schäferstube and don't mind where to go, come to Restaurant Julen, the sitting is so comfortable!
