About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
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!

    Best fondue we’ve ever had, with more interesting menu choices than usual. Great service. The cost was quite high per serving, however. If you can afford it, it is great!

    One of our favorite restaurants in San Francisco. It’s reminiscent of a Swiss experience with a great selection of various fondues: cheese, meat & chocolate. The staff is welcoming: Sheila as hostess is friendly like family & servers are knowledgeable to help select the right fondu & wine pairing. We love the venue with wood paneling , a gondola & decor with the feel of a Swiss chalet.

    It has been too long since we ate at The Matterhorn and we were so glad to return for great fondue, a delicious salad, and a great bottle of wine reasonably priced. Service was wonderful.

    Great experience overall! Went with a group of 7 on a Thursday evening and we had plenty of space. Everyone at the restaurant was very kind and the food was delicious. Make sure to leave room for dessert because its delicious! Parking nearby can be challenging so try to avoid if you can. The decor and vibes inside are great and really added to the experience.
