We were upstairs and I have to say the atmosphere is 5 stars! You really feel like in a mountain chalet. The fondue is very good, a bit on the pricey side but when I think about it the potatoes are included so at the end the price is standard. The dry meet plate is huge, very good and worth it. The only negative point is from the waiter (the older man). We ordered 2 Coke Zero and he came with only one Regular coke. When I said it was two Zero, he sighed (which is not professional) and came back with only one Zero.. I told him it was two and he aggressively answered "the other one is coming" and it came like 10min later, after the fondue was served. At the moment tho pay, he said "here is where you put the tips" but more like an order rather than an information...

The waitresses, on the otherrside, were super friendly and very...

I had high hopes for this place, but was very disappointed. The food was amazing, but the service was awful. We were given menus, but then we're disregarded for quite a while. I thought it was just because the place was busy, but several other couples came in & were taken care of, including drinks and food. I'm not sure what the issue was. I don't want to blame the restaurant because it could've just been a bad waiter, but still sharing. We also didn't have a reservation and were American. Perhaps the waiter didn't like that about us? We were also charged 8 CHF for a bottle of water that we did not request. Hopefully this was just a random bad experience....try for yourself...

Arrivées à 18h39 pour une réservation à 18h30 (faite en passant en personne au restaurant et en ayant laissé mes coordonnées bien sûr), notre table avait été donnée à quelqu’un d’autre car je cite « plein de gens ne sont pas venus » (merci l’explication rien à voir… 🤦‍♀️) On veut nous placer à l’entrée dans le courant d’air mais finalement nous obtenons une table en haut. Le serveur nous apporte les menus et revient à peine 30 secondes après donc nous n’étions pas prêtes. Nous attendons ensuite longtemps et observons que toutes les autres tables sont prises en charge, ce qui déclenche un commentaire de notre voisine de table : « on est arrivés après vous et vous êtes les dernières à être servies » à quoi le serveur répond : « Mesdames ont pris du temps à choisir ». Euh… nous n’avons pas pris plus d’une minute à choisir mais plus personne n’est venu vers nous. Je me permets un petit « oui enfin ce n’est pas vraiment ça… » à quoi le serveur répond « soyons francs… » 🙄 Bon nous en rigolons mais clairement je trouve le service très limite ! Le repas se passe bien même si on oublie nos pommes de terres et qu’on nous coupe le brûleur à fondue avant que nous ayons totalement fini… Enfin vient l’addition qui comprenait nos consommations ainsi que celles d’une autre table… Rien de catastrophique mais je n’ai pas trouvé la fondue excellente (à la tomate, une première pour moi donc pas de comparaison possible cela dit) et le service n’était pas à la hauteur du tout ! Ce qui m’a le plus énervée est l’accueil suite au « retard » et la réponse totalement déplacée de la jeune femme même si l’accumulation en devenait carrément drôle. En bref, je ne recommande...

We discovered this gem on line before our trip. When we arrived in Lausanne we went here for dinner our first night in town…and met our waiter Adrian. He is a very nice man. He walked us through the menu and suggested a local white wine, it was just what we expected. Had a fondue, roasted quail salad, and a bottle of local wine. We enjoyed it so much we came back the next night with 6 members of our group. We had the escargot, deer sausage, and quail salad. Stop in and say hello to Adrain and enjoy your meal.

We were at the restaurant just before they closed for lunch service and had the cheese fondue. The cheese definitely had a punch to it as it has some alcohol in it. Was pretty much like a full meal even though it’s just bread dipped in cheese. Overall was a charming experience. Kudos to the server who was accommodating and got the Chef to still cater to us before they close for their split shift. It’s right off the Palais De Rumine and amongst the Main Street of shops and restaurants.
