This is a restaurant at the Seehotel Waldstätterhof Brunnen, right on the waterfront by the Brunnen…read moreboat docks. The restaurant is modern and well-appointed.
Prices are right up the middle for Swiss dining standards, which is almost a surprise given the location, view, and menu quality. Indeed, they're slightly cheaper than I'd have expected.
The restaurant is very aware of vegetarian food -- which is rare in many parts of Switzerland -- and actually has multiple options, which is rarer still. To further push the rarity, the dishes have been prepared with some thought, rather than just subtracting the meat or tossing together some indifferent carbohydrates.
The service is outstanding: proper and solicitous, not what it could so easily have been (stiff or snooty) given the posh restaurant and fancy hotel surroundings.
Overall, a really pleasant surprise. I virtually never eat at the restaurant in a hotel where I'm staying, but the veggie options had already made me very curious; the view compounded it; and the poor weather outside sealed the deal. No regrets at all: this was a winner.
