Top 10 International food in Zermatt, Swiss Alps, Switzerland
Discover Restaurants offering the best International food in Zermatt, Swiss Alps, Switzerland. When most people think of Zermatt, they think of one thing: The Matterhorn. This ultimate Swiss icon looms over Zermatt, first drawing visitors here in the 1860s. The village of Zermatt itself is lovely and car-free, with old-fashioned brown chalets and winding alleys. (Don’t worry, you don’t have to walk everywhere—there are electric vehicles and horse-drawn cabs.) Skiing in the region often lasts through early summer, but when the weather’s warmer, it’s a great time to hike.

We have been coming to Zermatt for 30 years and there are many wonderful restaurants of all types here. Sadly, this isnât one of them. On the last occasion we tried it we booked 3 weeks before coming as we wanted a specific table in the centre of the restaurant for a special occasion. We turned up on time to be told the table wasnât ready and to have a drink downstairs (old sales trick!). Half an hour later the manager came down to tell us the table was ready and we went to take our place. 5 minutes after sitting down he came back and told us we would have to move as someone else had booked the table. He knew we had booked it weeks ago but he was over-ridden by the hotel manager that this restaurant adjoins. She had taken over the table for some hotel guests. We were shown to a table in the far corner! The restaurant manager was supremely embarrassed but could do nothing. He gave us a free bottle of wine to âcompensateâ but the evening was ruined, the food was average but the ongoing atmosphere was dreadful as they knew that they had done wrong. The guests on our original table offered to swap with us as they too were embarrassed but we declined as it wasnât their fault. We went to the hotel after the meal to see the manager but she declined to see us. I obtained her mobile number and tried to ring her but she refused to take my calls. Their attitude was appalling and it was, without a doubt, the worst evening we have had in Zermatt in 30 years.Dear Mr. TaylorWe are very sorry that your visit does not meet your expectations from our Restaurant 1818 Eat & Drink. We are naturally disappointed to read your comments as we pride ourselves in delivering exceptional service to our guests.As we discussed that with our teams (Hotel Monte Rosa and Restaurant 1818 Eat & Drink) we kindly ask you to contact us to [email protected] best regards from Zermatt,Philippe Oswald (General Manager - Hotel Monte Rosa)

My wife and I had recently traveled to Zermatt with our tour group. Our Tour Director Lucy had personally recommended going to Pollux for the Raclette. Raclette was a Swiss cheese dish which my wife and I had never experienced or tasted before - it was delicious.We also decided to split a meat and cheese plate. The quality of each ingredient was evident in every bite. Due to the large number of âbitesâ we had, we were not able to finish all of the meat and cheese plate. However, we both pleasantly and quickly consumed it. Delicious.We had originally wanted to have the Cheese Fondue there, but they only serve it in one section of the restaurant and that section full when we arrived. Since we did get our Raclette on our first visit, we decided we might try to go back the next day for the Fondue. Regardless, we had delicious food and saw other dishes that we would have enjoyed as well. You may be coming to Zermatt as we were and not know where to eat. You will not go wrong with Pollux. The staff was of the same high quality as the food.

We stayed at a hotel near the Jagerhof and found this to be an excellent place for dinner. You can order off the menu or choose to have a 3 or 4 course meal. We had the 3 course meal that included a wonderful salad bar, main course and dessert. The food was good and the service was excellent. We looked at other restaurant menus and did not find one with a better value.Dear DanThanks a lot for joining us in our restaurant and for taking your time to write us this great report! We and especially our kitchen and service team is glad to receive this wonderful compliments. Your words means that good food must not be very expensive - also not in Zermatt, as we try to offer a very good value for money. Thanks again! We wish you all the best and hope to see you again next time! Kin regards

My GF and I visited this restaurant on 11 June 2017 for dinner. The setting was impeccable - very exquisite decor and grand ambiance. Our dinner comprised cold and warm appetizers (buffet-style garden fresh salads, ham, sausage and bacon, and various kinds of cheese, etc.), white wine soup, suckling pork knuckles, and tiramisu/sorbet. All were to our liking and served by very attentive waiters and waitresses. We felt we were treated like royalty.Dear guest WyselyThank you for your visit and for the great review. We are happy you enjoyed your evening in our restaurant and were satisfies by our food and services.

Really good restaurant in a beautiful location with a great view of the Matterhorn. Both indoor and outdoor eating. Everything locally sourced and made to order. Had the goat cheese salad and the whole sea bream, both of which were delicious. Dessert was the cheesecake with raspberries. On the way out I saw their homemade fruit pie which looked incredible. Definitely a restaurant to go to.

I read a review that this was a chic little bar in the Firefly hotel. I'm always looking for little gems and "secret" hideaways for my wife and I to go to. Bar55 did not disappoint. The decor and ambiance were stellar and the bartenders (sorry! forgot your names!) were super friendly, knowledgeable and fun to talk with. We met some Swiss locals and had a great time over the wonderful drinks that were made. One of the bartenders made a round of Mai-Tais... not your standard drink for a European ski resort, but having lived in Hawaii for a decade, I can attest they were among the best Mai-tais ever! The other cool thing about this bar, is the many little intimate nooks that are great for small groups to gather.

We were so impressed with the food and Sparky that we ate here twice in our 8 night stay in Zermatt. Prices in Zermatt are very expensive but Sparkyâs was more reasonable. All the curries were gluten free and delicious. The 3 of us had a different one and all of them were very tasty. They did other type of food too. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and Sparky is a great chef and character. Definitely worth visiting if you are staying in Zermatt.
