Chu Garden — Restaurant in Bern

This was already a while ago but now kow that I‘m reading all of these reviews I feel like sharing our experience as well. I went there with 2 friends and it was our first time at the place and the waiters reminding us constantly that they were going to close in 2 hours. We ordered the medium or small bbq menu and one side dish because we had a budget. The order took 1 hour to arrive making us stress even more as we only had 1h left to eat. We also noticed that they brought in a lot of food. We did not say mich as we thought that was part of the menu. The stress ruined the atmosphere…Later we wanted to pay and the price was somehow at 170CHF, yet we only ordered the medium menu with ONE SINGLE side dish that was maybe 12-13CHF. And we could only pay by cash too (which we weren’t reminded off when coming in) luckily we had enough cash on us. I just feel like we were charged double… because how did we end up at a price of 170CHF when we only ordered those two things. The food was kind of bland and not worth the high price AT ALL. We thought it was because of our appearance (given that we are africans) but now that I read those other reviews I see that it was not just us. The waiters weren’t rude, they were just really stressing us as they were litterally watching us eat from the front desk…We definitely won‘t be...

Service: Service is perhaps amongst the best you’ll find in any restaurant in Switzerland—what am I saying? In Europe! Very attentive, polite and warm.

Location: Not centrally located, but very easy to access via public transport.

Value: As with all businesses in Switzerland, one can expect to pay far more than what one is accustomed to paying for similar goods/services. For example, a bowl of bibimbap, which in Korea one can get for anywhere between 5 and 7 USD, costs 25 CHF (which is almost exactly the same in USD). That said, they do NOT skimp on portion sizes. There will be plenty to eat on your plate! I opted for the spring rolls for appetizers and basic vegetable fried rice (I love it)—and asked for tofu; although tofu was not on the menu with the fried rice they were able to accommodate my request.

Presentation & Taste: The food was nicely presented and was quite tasty. Will visit again.

Smoking: They DO allow smoking on the veranda, so be aware if you are...

The moment you step into Chu Garden, the bustle of daily life seems to fade away. The atmosphere wraps around you like a gentle breeze — soft lighting, thoughtful décor — a garden suspended somewhere between dream and reality.

But the real journey begins on the plate. Special mention to the Crispy Beef, Sichuan Style — delicately spiced, tender on the inside, perfectly crisp on the outside — a spicy whisper that lingers pleasantly on the palate. Each bite strikes a harmonious chord in a delicious symphony.

Here, glasses never stay empty for long… One drinks to their thirst, with the comforting sense of being welcomed like a long-expected guest, not just another customer.

A place where time slows down, where every detail breathes generosity and harmony. A true haven of peace and flavor, one I...
