| - I was absolutely underwhelmed by the food and service at this restaurant. I came with my mother and sister in hopes that we would be able to revisit certain tastes of the Swiss(we had lived there), and considering the price we had to pay for this experience, calling it sub-par would be too kind.
We ordered the following: Swiss cheese fondue with wine and kirsch, veal cutlet jägerschnitzel, Zurich-style veal with cream and mushrooms, goulash soup, poire belle hélène, apple strudel.
The fondue wasn't to our taste but it was decent; the veal cutlet was bland and soggy; the Zurich-style veal was over cooked; the potato cakes were savory (unfortunately, one of the only things they got right); the goulash soup was a touch salty but flavourful; the strudel's pastry decided to play hide and seek (it was cinnamon-apple mush); and the pear dessert was average (I suspect canned pears were used); so, overall, mildly disappointing. Not to mention, our orders were mixed up.
However, what really took the cake was the service. While we may have been greeted by a warm server who lent ear to our concerns, her sweetness was very much soured by another server who was impatient, very impertinent, and lacked savoir-faire. What attitude! I am so appalled.
May the fondue gods be kinder to your visit.
