Hôtel de Ville — Restaurant in Fribourg - Freiburg

Without doubt one of the best restaurants in Fribourg, if not the best. You even dare bring your Mom. Raport quality/price is excellent and the ambiance guaranteed. Mr. Kondratowitz's self-taught cuisine surprises seasoned eaters as well as amateurs. And surprised you will be....a spicy, curry sorbet that could easily fit as a desert served as an amuse-bouche? Brilliant. Discover niche-wines, get "shaken culinarily", enjoy the friendly staff and discover miscellaneous art (pictures, paintings and statues). The decor reminds me of a upper standing Parisian "bistro". A true pleasure every time. For ambiance, get a table in the main salon, for more discretion and quiet ask for the Salon Bleu and if you dare, sit next to the piano and pretend it's yours for the evening....

The service at this restaurant is fantastic, the view is beautiful, the quality of the food is amazing with one important caveat and for this I took 2 stars: they use sugar, I'm no diabetic but something I saw in Switzerland is that they still use sugar everywhere a lot (see all the unhealthy chocolate, sweetened breads and icecream you find at the stores to give some examples) and even bad artificial sweeteners (like sacarin added in some medicines, crazy ins't it in 2023?). Your dishes are fantastic but some of them ruined when you put unhealthy sugar in it when you can use healthy alternatives and this in 2023 is unacceptable, it's a pity because the experience...

A gem of a restaurant tucked away in the centre of Fribourg.

Old World charm with class and elegance. The staff are attentive and friendly without being obtrusive. The food is good (as it should be with all the awards it has won).

The portions were slightly on the small side but that didn't detract from my enjoyment

There is artwork everywhere and local artists are supported.

The toilets are on the ground floor and are not signposted. There is a separate room which is dimly lit having dark red walls and black doors which lead to the ladies and gents loos. The partially sighted may have a bit of difficulty finding the door but it won't be too much...
