    Excellent food and drinks! Service was top-notch as well; the only issue was that it took a very long time to get our food, but we weren't in a hurry, so it wasn't an issue.

    Food was great, so was wine. Food did take upwards of 45 minutes to hit the table. We didn’t mind too much, were chilling, but it would’ve been at least appreciated to get a lil check in like “hey it’ll be out shortly”. Just felt a bit ignored/forgotten. Still, will absolutely return. The fondue was great and I love your wine list!

    Alpenrausch is a high class operation. The quality of food is high, with well balanced flavors, texture, and presentation. As much as we liked the Paprika Schnitzel, Fondue, and Poached Steelhead, I think our favorite was the Käsespätzle starter dish. Wow! Great place for a special occasion.

    Food and service were great - food delivery was slow (apparent issue in the kitchen), but staff very gracious and comped us a couple snacks to carry us over until dinner arrived. Lovely spot, lovely food, wonderful staff. Will definitely be back.

    We stumbled upon this gem and were not disappointed. The menu of well constructed Swiss dishes complimented with a wine list featuring great bottles from the vineyards of Italy, France, Austria and Germany. Staff is very friendly and knowledgable. We started with a craft cocktail and castelvetrano olives. Split a Mixed salad with the schnitzel and venison paired with glass pours recommended by the staff. There is a chefs menu option which we plan to partake at our next visit.

    Visited as a group of 4 on a Friday night at 7:30. It looked like the first night of their outdoor beer garden but only a few of us tables inside with reservations. There’s a coat rack next to the host stand so I asked if my coat could be hung up and I was handed a hanger instead of offering to hang it up for me. Once we were seated, it took a little longer than usual for us to order drinks but our server seemed flustered so we were understanding. We ordered 4 appetizers and 4 mains. Appetizers were great but things started to fall apart after that. We waited over 45 minutes after apps for our mains. At no point did our server check in with us or communicate when we might expect our dishes. During that wait, there were maybe 3 or 4 left and not much movement happening in the kitchen. We didn’t get served until 9:45. Once our bill arrived, our server notified us that there’s an automatic 20% gratuity fee plus 3% wellness fee, and we wanted to add any extra tip that it would be appreciated. $427 total. The quality was definitely not worth 23% and I would have appreciated more communication and effort if that amount of tip is expected of their guests.

    We celebrated Mother's Day at [Restaurant Name] with their special "Tour de Alpes" menu, and it was absolutely magnificent! Every dish in this Alpine-inspired culinary journey was expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. What truly elevated our experience was our server, who went above and beyond to ensure we understood each dish being presented. They provided detailed explanations of the ingredients and preparation methods, adding fascinating context about Alpine cuisine that enhanced our appreciation of the meal. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for our special Mother's Day celebration. From the first course to the last, the attention to detail was evident in both presentation and taste. If you're looking for an exceptional dining experience that combines outstanding food with knowledgeable, friendly service, I can't recommend the "Tour de Alpes" enough. This restaurant has definitely earned a place on our list of favorites for special occasions!
