As it was our first time eating raclette, we asked our server to walk us through the menu. Lily was exceedingly helpful in explaining the differences in cheeses and their flavors, and she was also very attentive and checked in on us throughout the meal. I noticed that her welcoming demeanor was also shared by her colleagues who were waiting on the other tables around us. My family took Lily up on her recommendations, and we ordering one Klara and one Willi, each with a side of sausages, as well as one original tarte flambé and one vegi tarte flambée. The food was all very delicious!! My personal highlights from the meal were the sausage dipped in the Willi cheese along with the onions and potatoes that were served with the dish. The tartes also had very thin, yummy crusts topped with raclette cheese. The side of pickles provided a tangy contrast to the rest of the meal which I liked. We ended our meal with a warm chocolate cake and lemon sorbet. I'm not really one for alcohol, so I found the vodka in the sorbet to be a bit too strong for me. However, the chocolate cake with the jam and vanilla ice cream was very good and had just the right amount of chewiness. I wish that I could replace my local Cheesecake Factory with a Raclette Factory instead so that I could enjoy Swiss cheese melted over bread, sausages, and potatoes all the time. Oh well, perhaps it's just another excuse to visit Switzerland again one day :)

We knew we needed CHEESE before leaving Switzerland, and we knew we liked Raclette, so this seemed…read morelike a good fit. We were introduced to raclette by a French friend who even gifted us a heating unit, so we were not expecting to just be served a plate with some bread cubes, 2 potatoes, a couple of pickles & onions, with a bunch of melted cheese on top. Pretty underwhelming. That being said, the food was good. We had plain, garlic, smoke, and white wine cheese - the most noticeable was the white wine. The others were pretty much the same to us. Our waiter was pleasant and the atmosphere... a bit casual and resembling a chain. Pricing? It's Switzerland, so you know you're going to spend some bucks, but comparatively speaking, it was cheap (ER).

This was one of the meals that I was looking forward to the most but it was a little disappointing. The service was friendly but not super helpful since there wasn't too much instruction on how to eat. Since you are eating with a burner, it does get quite hot inside and I think it would've been preferable to eat outside. Overall, I think it's a little overhyped and I wouldn't have gone out of the way to eat here.

The blended cheeses were perfection as fondue with scraping to the bottom of the bucket being the reward. The Raclette Staub is perfect for a cold rainy day as it's a storybook like energy and decor.

They have an English menu, and the service was fast, though not very friendly. I ordered a salad and pork shank and asked the waiter if it was crispy on the outside like a traditional Schweinshaxe. He said yes, but unfortunately, it wasn't -- which was disappointing. Also, our main dishes arrived before the salads, and the waiter didn't seem to care. Overall, it was a decent experience, and the atmosphere alone makes it worth visiting once. But I think the constant crowd has negatively affected the quality. I'll probably try another place next time.

With it's friendly service, good food and amazing ambiance, it was my favorite restaurant of our trip. We decided to order the Raclette and the Truffle Butter Fondue (39 CHF). The raclette was served with boiled potatoes and it was really fun being able to watch your own raclette melting at your table on the melter. While I enjoyed the raclette, I enjoyed the Truffle Butter Fondue even more. It was served with pieces of baguette bread and the fondue was so creamy and flavorful. It definitely had a strong truffle flavor which I really enjoyed. Just as enjoyable as the food was the ambiance. Chasalp is located on a hill overlooking Zurich so you have a nice view of the city as you walk from the parking lot to the restaurant. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available but with how beautiful the scenery was, we definitely had to sit outside. Cows roam around the lush green grass as you enjoy your meal and everything feels so peaceful and serene. Our servers were very friendly and helpful and checked on us often to make sure everything was okay. While we didn't have any kids with us, the outdoor space also looked to be kid-friendly with a nearby swing set for children to use along with crayons and drawing sheets at the table to keeps kids occupied. I had such a wonderful and relaxing experience and definitely recommend it if you're in Zurich and looking for a delicious fondue option.

Unless you don't mind eating outside in the dark with all the smokers. Second....expect to wait a long time. This isn't a fast food restaurant so grab a beer and wait 45/60 min to get your food. Third... Switzerland is very expensive so this restaurant is no different. 2 burgers, 2 alcoholic drinks, and French fries were 98CHF which is pretty much 100 bucks. They have 3 sauces for you to try. Ketchup- Tasted like marinara sauce. BBQ- Tasted like smokey ketchup. 1000 island. Tasted normal. Burgers were great. They were juicy and delicious. Animal Style French Fries were a good try. Def not like the original but so far from home it was a nice find. This restaurant isn't for Americans. Way too expensive for what we eat all the time but I compare this place to the Melting Pot in the US. That place is so overpriced but it's amazing to get your cheese fondue fix. I can't imagine Swiss people coming to the US and eating at our expensive version of cheese fondue. Service was ok. It was super busy so can't really complain but I could tell our waiter was super annoyed with our audacity of showing up , with no reservation, and willingness to wait. And for some dumb reason you can't order "The Threesome" (or Hattrick) with a group of 5 people. 4 apparently is ok but we had 5. Cannot imagine why if 3 people order the same thing it's an inconvenience for the restaurant but DON'T DO IT or again your waiter will show his annoyance.
