This is my favorite place in Gstaad. I would say the menu is typical Swiss-German, but not so…read moretypical in preparation. I usually get the Tete de Veau / Kalbskopf. If you've ever eaten this dish anywhere else, it is usually a plate of mostly veal fat with very little flavor. At the Rossli it is much less fatty, and comes with this gravy boat of very finely cubed vegetables in a heavenly vinaigrette. Last night I had some veal dish off the daily specials menu, that the waitress described as from the calf/ankle of the calf. Whatever the cut was, it was low fat and beautifully tender. My wife had the kalbsleber which I tasted and was also delicious (and I not usually a fan of liver, well not cow liver anyway). What I am a big fan of when I'm in Switzerland is veal. I think we Americans have the best beefsteaks, but the Swiss have and prepare the best veal. The service here is top notch and very professional. It's been my experience that all the servers are fluent in English, French and German, but that is pretty much the case at all of the places in Gstaad. The menus are also printed in these 3 languages, except for the daily specials which are only listed in French and German. The servers also wear traditional uniforms you would expect at a Swiss landhaus in the old days. The chalet the Rossli is located in may actually be the oldest chalet in the village. Based on the name it was the original post office for the village, and is currently also a modest hotel. I've only ever eaten in the steubli, which I prefer over the formal dining room. The steubli is decorated with old skiing photos, deer antlers and local artifacts. I find it very charming. This place defines classic Swiss dining in a Landhaus. If you are in town during anything resembling the busy seasons; Christmas, February, and Summer, I would suggest reservations. The impression I have, is that this place is popular with those in the know. I've been going there for 13 years now and it's always good. Lastly, there's price. With the exchange rate being what it is the last few years, Switzerland is expensive, and Gstaad is expensive anyway, but I consider this place a very good value considering the quality of the food and impeccable service.

It was tough to wake up Saturday quite early morning but It was worth it^^ Friends chose Gstaad Lauenensee in the Swiss German speaking part because it's an easy flat land, also no climbing this time^^ We enjoyed fresh air, and juicy grassland which is indeed a basis for tasty Swiss milk, chocolate and cheese. We spent lunch time in amazing rustic Lauenensee restaurant with it's wonderful view on green relaxing landscape and mountains. Well! We ate typical Swiss mountain dishes such as "croûte au fromage" means on bread baked cheese with an fried egg. For dessert we enjoyed fresh fruit cakes with fresh cream. The waitress was very friendly. We travelled back with a special panoramic train and loved the view on mountains and at the end on big Geneva lake. The prices were on average and we decided to do more of this kind of trips in the future^^

Definitely Michellin/James Beard star quality- see my reviews of restaurants in Paris, New York, Hong Kong, etc. This is one that ranks amongst the best. The presentation, the quality of the ingredients, the final product- all par excellence. By New York standards, the value is immense as everything on the menu would cost more in NY. This will be my main destination for visits to Gstaad and a definite incentive over other Swiss alpine destinations.

The good was good BUT there was a piece if broken glass in my dessert (ice cream with fruit) which cut my young and roof of my mouth, but I did not bleed. When I brought it to the attention if the waiter he told me that it was impossible that there could have been any glass in my dish and that the glass did not come from the restaurant. He basically accused me of planting the glass. My friend took the shard of glass to the owner and owner's wife who both work in the restaurant and they also said that the glass was not from their restaurant. They very grudgingly deducted ONLY the cost of the ice cream from my bill. They were not in the least bit concerned about my welfare and did not apologize to me. Shards of glass can be serious and even life threatening if swallowed. It is one thing to make a mistake , but it is another to treat your customers poorly, with such arrogance and have so little concern for their welfare. I will never return to this restaurant and would never recommend it.

The…read morerestaurant is situated inside Alpine hotel and the outdoor seating are nice if the weather permit. Overall I was a bit disappointed given I had much better Japanese food for less money. Maybe because it's in Switzerland and in a hotel that's why the pricy a bit high. If the prices were average I would rate it 4 stars but for the prices I expected more tasteful food. We started with the crispy asparagus and the vegetable tempura. The crispy asparagus presentation was beautiful but both dishes were standard. The crab salad was way below average. It had a weird citrusy taste that really ruined it. As for the main dishes the sea bass and the crispy spyder Maki were better than the starters. Finally we finished off with alpine coupe. The alpine coupe was mostly whipped cream which we are not a big fans off. Would rather get an extra scoop of ice cream. Overall would not recommend driving all the way to dine here unless you are staying in the hotel and feeling lazy in leaving. Here are my ratings: Crispy asparagus: 7/10 Veggie tempura: 7/10 Crab salad: 5.5/10 Seabass: 8/10 Spinach as side: 8/10 Spyder Maki: 8/10 Alpine coupe: 7/10
