August

Obwohl das Lokal fast leer war wurde uns ein Platz direkt bei der Garderobe angewiesen. Wechsel möglich. Der Service war nicht sehr aufmerksam, Essen wurde meinem Partner von meiner Seite über den Tisch serviert, Weisswein war lauwarm und der günstigste Preis für 1 dl Offenausschank ist CHF 10.-. Das Essen war gut aber nicht aussergewöhnlich. Service wurde dann etwas besser. Was zu bemängeln ist, ist die schlechte Lüftung. Alles stinkt nach Fett, schade!

What a complicated experience. The food was lovely; my bride enjoyed a decidedly not American "burger." It was delicious. I had an absolutely terrific stew. We highly recommend both.

Our concern/problem/issue? Well, we couldn't help but feel that the waiter found our presence in the restaurant annoying. We are experienced, global travelers; sensitive to the local community and appreciative of the service professionals we interact with. We enjoy, appropriate, banter with the staff should time allow. (This restaurant was mostly empty.)

That said, our waiter found it annoying to review the menu with us. While he was present and attentive to our neighbors, he never seemed to care if we wanted or needed anything. It would be inappropriate to call him rude. He was not; he simply ignored us while being quite busy with others.

My parting comment as I left...."sorry for disturbing your afternoon." He ignored that too.

Go for the food. Not the service.

5* for the food. The caesar salad with stir fried chicken, main course luma beef pattie with celery , mushroom, jus, roast vegetables and mille-feuille "rennweg" dessert were all superb. Good value for money considering swiss prices generally on high side in Europe. Attentive service throughout. Recommended finevdining Michelin Bib Gourmand at it's best. £££
