Made a quick pit stop in Lucerne and wanted to try some traditional Swiss food during our visit…read more The restaurant has an old-fashioned, homey ambiance and was brimming with locals! The staff were also super friendly and welcoming, although service was a tad bit slow. The food is quite expensive but normal for Swiss standards, and honestly felt it was worth it given the large portion sizes. The spicy pork bratwurst was juicy and satisfying but a bit too salty for my liking. I also wish it was a bit spicier! It came with some caramelized onions on the side which were drenched in sauce and paired well with the sausage. The potatoes were buttery and delicious. I've had a lot of potatoes during the past two weeks in Europe and these were among the best. The veal schnitzel was also quite good. It was lightly breaded on the outside and succulent on the inside. We ordered the risotto on the side which was creamy and flavorful, but we had a hard time finishing due to the heaviness of the dish. Definitely worth a visit if you're seeking traditional Swiss food - you won't be disappointed!

If you care about the actual food, skip this place. I care about food far more than service, and this place was a huge disappointment. I ordered the beef stew, which my waitress recommended, and the meat was unbearably dry and chewy, not even the gravy could save it. Seriously, it was the worst-quality beef I can remember having at a restaurant. The Pinot Noir was excellent, but that was the only highlight. I had a reservation for 9 and showed up early at 8:45. On the phone they had said the kitchen closed at 9:30, but when I arrived no one attended my table until 8:58, when the waitress rushed over and told me the kitchen closes at 9. Meanwhile, the table next to me placed their order at 9:15 without issue. There was no silverware on the table, and I was never checked on once after my food arrived, which was very frustrating. The most frustrating part is that my meal for one person, including the dish and two glasses of wine, was $50 Franks. For that price, I expect far better quality. I expect better, truly. Please refer to photos for the dry beef stew meat.

Yelp Review 2026 #94:…read more Established in 1858, Old Swiss House is in a building that has served as a post office, then an antiques shop. "For three generations, it was lovingly run and brought to life by the Buholzer family, and every single piece here tells a story. On August 1st, the house passed into the hands of the Friedli-Studer family from Escholzmatt. Through Distillerie Studer, their name has stood for Swiss culinary excellence for generations. In this spirit, they now carry forward the tradition of the Buholzer family." It's an old upscale Swiss restaurant famous for its table-side Wienerschnitzel and table-side chocolate mousse. We didn't make a reservation but after 12pm and they had tables available. Not everyone was dressed up. Our server was friendly and very chatty. A few more people with no reservations walked in. Although I was curious about their Wienerschnitzel, the portion is for 2 people and I simply wasn't in the mood to eat that. I've been craving pasta and fish (not together) after a few days in Switzerland. I looked up their menu the day before and planned on getting their lobster pasta. Tagliata vom Rindsfilet Mit Hausgemachter Café de Paris und Pommes Frites: Beef fillet Tagliata with homemade café de Paris and French fries. So, basically, beef fillet with buttery breadcrumbs served with fries. 4/5 Zarter Rocklobster Aug Nüdell, Serviert Mit Hummersauce: Tender rocklobster on noodles served with lobster sauce. This was exactly what I wanted and needed. 4/5 Unsere Hausspezialität Mousse au Chocolat mit Schlagrahm - am Tisch geschöpft: "Our house specialty. Voted the best mousse in Switzerland by the NY Herald Tribune: Mousse au Chocolat with whipped cream - served at the table." I'm not sure I've heard of NY Herald Tribune so, I chuckled because it's not like it's the NY Times. I love chocolate mousse and don't care for awards and newspaper features for it. It's rich, dark, creamy and glorious. The table-side prep lasted about 2 minutes. It's not like they make it from scratch next to your table. The server just whips the cream and fluff up with mousse, serve two big dollops of chocolate mousse under the whipped cream on a plate. 4.5/5 Their best dishes are German and French which makes them truly Swiss. I left feeling satisfied. The restroom is downstairs. They have a wall of fame with pictures of celebrities and politicians that have dined at Old Swiss House such as Frank Sinatra, Pres. Nixon, Pres. Carter and Pres. Johnson, Gorbachev, Federer, etc.
