    Did the tour - it was amazing. So much food for the value. My husband is still talking about the pole bean side. Staff were friendly and great explaining the dishes. Would do it again!

    We sat outside so the noise level is what you would expect and was not in the restaurant’s control, but the atmosphere was still very cozy and comfortable! We did the Tour de Alpes chefs menu and the food was absolutely incredible and felt like we got a lot for what we paid. Our server was very friendly, helpful, and offered a lot of information about the various foods and drinks available. It seemed like everything was locally sourced and made in house— and it was DELICIOUS. The highlights for me were the venison and the tartine, my partner also really enjoyed the venison and the salad/vegetable dishes. Really the only thing that I wouldn’t really recommend is the fondue— it was VERY reisling forward and just wasn’t our taste. Everything else that we tried was incredible! Food came out promptly with little to no wait between courses, and our servers were very attentive. We would absolutely come back and will be recommending this place to friends and family. Looking forward to trying the schnapps flight on our next visit!

    My oldest daughter has celiac disease and Alpenrausch worked with her to provide a delicious, safe evening. She loved the Steelhead, the fondue and the sides that were safely prepared for her. Our server, Craig, took great care of my daughter, and of all of us. My daughter is very excited to have Alpenrausch and the three other Olympia Provision restaurants as safe, wonderful dining options.

    The food was exquisite. The schnitzel was tender, and so juicy with the perfect golden crunch. The goulash, though unorthodox, was divine. You can never go wrong with the fondue. Best in town if you ask me.

    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.
