When we entered the restaurant, there was a smell of old cheese not cleaned properly from the caquelons, burners or other dishes what should indeed - have been a clear warning for us. We did NOT have Fondue what many tourists eat here but the "Special" of the day - soup or salad as a starter, turkey with risotto on a tomato sauce. The soup and salad where good, the main course too although the presentation of the course was a little unusual - everything was kind of "swimming" in the risotto and the turkey was so cooked you did not need a knife but rather a soup spoon which was also offered unsolicited. It tased good and we were full very easily. Long story short - the food was tasty but we both had belly cramps half an hour later when we were back at the hotel.

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

It's in a very nice 5-star hotel so it's not surprising it's expensive. Gorgeous interior. However - their white wine by the glass on their menu ranges 11 - 14 francs. I asked for whichever of those the restaurant manager, who was waiting on us, recommended and she brought and charged us for a FIFTY franc glass instead without saying anything. And then asked us to tip when she checked us out, which we did because I'm nonconfrontational, but weird in a city and country with service charges where tipping isn't expected. Would definitely choose another place the next time we need fondue.

I had the plain one & ordered the vegetables, which included celery, carrots, mushrooms and tomatoes, along with too much bread for one person. My sister has raclette, which came with cornichones an pearl onions. She said the cheese reminded her of saganaki & that it was salty. The two others in our party had the sausage, and they enjoyed that as well. The one thing that bothered me was that, when the server asked if we wanted water, there was no mention of it being 7ch a bottle. Being from the U.S., we are not used to being charged for water, let alone that much. But , all in all, this is a good choice, and I'm glad we went

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!

We didn't make a reservation ahead of time and we're lucky enough to get a seat at the bar. After a long day snowboarding this is what we needed.

It was super crispy and the cheese melted out perfectly when eating every bite. When the dessert menu came across our table we couldn't say no to the chocolate fondue. I would highly reccomend it as it's such a fun experience and the chocolate was delicious. The only down side of the meal was how expensive it was. We knew that when traveling to Zermatt and splurged when it came to dinners like this one.
