About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
Mountain experiences - outdoor adventures, food, family, friends and community – always find us at our happiest.

At Matterhorn Restaurant & Bakery we showcase the magical experience of Swiss on-mountain dining, whether it’s après-ski, après-work, or après-all day.

Our restaurant focuses on authentic alpine cuisine, thoughtfully sourced and lovingly served in a setting inspired by the mountain "Stüblis" of the Alps. The menu is anchored by the Swiss classics of Fondue and Raclette - but features other typical fare highlighting various alpine regions.

Beer, wine and beverage offerings are designed to feature classic and fun pairings from Old and New World alike.

The Matterhorn has been a San Francisco institution, and we're proud to bring a fresh new chapter to its iconic story. As our guest it's an honor to have you at the story's center!

    Great service & food. Fun international experience, highly recommend the Raclette or Fondue for something a bit different! Love the decor and train in the back :-)

    What a delightful experience! This is a lovely restaurant. The service was outstanding and attentive. The food was wonderful. I had the raclette portion and the pork schnitzel with a crisp Swiss wine and the walnut honey torte to top it all off. If you want an Alpine adventure, this is your place.

    We had a great dinner. It was slow and our server gave us lots of attention. She helped us navigate the menu and order the right amount of food. It is a very themed restaurant and lots of fun; very tasty as well!

    We ate early - 5:30p - so not noisy at all. Our server was incredible - really helped us order. We chose the ulala and meat fondues and then the Smores for dessert. Extra apple slices for dipping. All delicious. Perfect for a rainy evening. Fun spot for families, groups, all ages, date nights. Decor is authentic Swiss chalet style. We will be back!

    We arrived at 440pm as our reservation was at 5pm. The schedule on the door stated 4pm on sat and Sun. The manager refused to open the door until 5pm. My elderly mother had needed to use the restroom and the manager refused again. I thought this was very unprofessional and inconsiderate, especially since we had driven over an hour to get to your restaurant and find parking. Very disappointed and especially since my mom is from Switzerland, Zurich, I had hoped for a better experience.
