The wine selection was lovely with the fondue. Be sure to ask the waitress for a recommendation. Service was warm and friendly! We had a shot of Veille Prune to end the evening.

We weren't looking for a full on meal either. Luckily, we arrived at a good time and were able to sit at a nice table outside. Our server was fantastic, even though he was extremely busy... and appeared to be alone. We ordered a pot of beer fondue with bread AND potatoes. Because we're fatties and frankly did not realize how much we would get. The fondue was delicious! We were scraping the pot to get every last bit at the end. The potatoes were so good as well, even on their own. We were so stuffed that we had left over of each, bread & potatoes. Suffice to say that we left happy. Excellent food, jaw dropping views, and friendly service. We will definitely return!

My first Swiss Fondue experience was an immersive, cheerful, cheese-fest with great service, food,…read moreand drinks in a uniquely Swiss atmosphere. It's $26 CHF (Swiss Francs for my US readers) per person, and they bring you a boiling vat of cheese and a bucket of bread. The menu is basically a listing of what kind of cheese you want, along with some sharables and desserts. I have a deeply held, long-standing love for cheese. But, this experience tested even my limits. The rule is, you don't drink anything cold with it as it will harden the cheese in your system. Seems like a bit of an urban legend. But, the alternative is brandy and wine, which they bring in great quantities if you ask for it. The brandy shot is included. Ah, the Swiss :) The cheeses were delicious and the bread soft. We dipped and swirled with long forks. My only other Fondue experience was Simply Fondue in Texas, where you actually cook meats in hot oil. This was not that. Cheese only. We also tried some onion soup, which was wonderful and not at all like "French Onion Soup" as we call it in the US. Not even sure if that's really French. For dessert we ordered some fruit and a strawberry sorbet, also outstanding. Our server was happy and fun, walking us through our new experience. We shared it with some local friends, making for a memorable night. Highly recommended if you want some great local food!

Came in…read moreon a Monday around 6:00, and was told there was no way to fit us in that night, but we could make a reservation for later that week. We did, and reserved 6:00 PM that Thursday (everything later was taken). We came in on time to our reservation, but found our waitress to be a bit on the unfriendly side. Although 95% of the tables had fondue, she seemed very put out by working, and she was difficult to track down when we wanted to order more wine (this is not by American standards, and we weren't yelling in English. I lived in Germany for two years, speak good German, and am accustomed to European service). The restaurant was very cozy. If you're a table of two you are likely to share your table with another party of two, and it's just warm and homey on the inside. The food was very good- we ordered fondue for two and a salad to share, and found that more than adequate in terms of amount of food. The prices were reasonable, although the wine was more than in other restaurants in the area. I've had fondue before and preferred that experience, but if you find yourself in St. Gallen, craving fondue, then this is a fine choice.

The Heid-Stübli is set in the basement of the Hotel Lenzerhorn, and specializes in fondue and stone-oven pizza. The main dining room books up in advance, but the bar (where you can get drinks and pizza, but no fondue) is first-come, first-serve. We got some Quattro Stagioni pizzas and local red wines; the prosciutto was excellent, as were the mushrooms and green olives. There's a serious family atmosphere here --- there was an ever-rotating group of kids staring amazedly at the flames in the pizza oven while we were there, and the waitstaff (mostly) dealt with it well. The décor is rough-hewn-wood-and-antlers --- nicely rustic compared to some of the white-linen places on Voa Principale. Our pizzas were great --- and we'll be booking some fondue for our next trip.

I can only relate the experience we had in 2018 during a ski holiday which was that the food was expensive, the wine very expensive, and the service slow. A typical fondue plate had a little meat, but a LOT of potato. After a while it became comical. We had to literally find the manager to get our final bill after we requested it 45 minutes earlier. The manager didn't seem to care much about our experience, he probably was looking to the next influx of tourists and more suckers. If you are getting a recommendation to go here from someone that says they know, I can only think that they are getting a kickback.

Since there was no raclette oven on the table, part of the acustomed active/busy atmosphere at the table was missing. The waiting staff also gave off a rather strange vibe; rather unnatural composure and unfitting jokes. The bill was slow to come. Cleaning as well as resetting of tables started too early, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere. At this price, I'd definitely say "meh, I've experienced better".
