Au petit chalet

Old historic Swiss place with delicious flavors & friendly family service.

Nice selection of fondues, we picked the morels fondue, however the kirsch flavour is very heavy. The salmon tartar is nice, generous portion too. Waiters seem very busy and negligent all the time.

This was probably the best meal of our whole trip. The fondue with bacon and the champagne fondue were both out of this world. If (and when) I go back to Geneva, this will be my first stop.

I had the classic fondue. Although it was good, it was not as good as the one from Cafe du Soleil. If you already tried classic fondue, perhaps you could try the ones with mushrooms or other addition ingredients.

As for dessert, I have the meringues with double creme. Nice - not too sweet.

I had to take one star off due to the unattentive waiters. You can't expect your customers to be sitting for 15 minutes without any form of service. Even a simple offering of a glass of water would suffice. I mean I understand that it does get busy but there's no excuse to leave your customers stranded.

That aside everything else was decent, and also had a go at the Swiss staple which is the cheese fondue.

EDIT - Downgraded from 4 stars to 2 stars due to the lousy response. "Decency to say hello". Stop being a joke - We WERE seated by you in the first place. Not to mention we tried to get your attention in a non-abusive manner. As for your friendly advice on how to dine in Europe, thanks for the chuckle.

While not the worst meal I experienced in Europe, it was undoubtedly the most disappointing. Initially, my wife and I wanted to sit inside the restaurant, but they convinced us that the outside seating was better. However, we soon realized it wasn't, environmental factors such as heat, smokers and pollution. The restaurant's interior was beautiful, but unfortunately, we couldn't enjoy it, as we ended up seated outside on a cramped patio where other tourists kept bumping into our chairs. The service was delivered with charisma, but it lacked attentiveness. The server was a nice person, but it felt that his upselling made me suspect he had ulterior motives. The pizza and salmon tartar was great. The steak was satisfactory but I didn’t enjoy the cheese fondue. I felt like this was a tourist trap.

This is the BEST meal of our entire trip! All the dishes were very, very good, portions are big and the price seemed to us pretty low considering the quantity and quality. Our server was also very friendly and cheerful. We loved it here. MUST TRY when you are in geneva!
