Honestly, when the chef himself comes out wearing a beret and playing an accordian, you think you're on vacation either in some weird Alpine resort or or a European cruise! Either way: WINNAH! Warm and quirky with fantastic food and beer (1 liter STEINS!). A can't miss night of food fun!

We had never been to Swiss Chef but were looking for a place with authentic European food. We found it at Swiss Chef, with its German, Austria, and Italian menu. Even the chef-owner spent a lot of time with customers, from meeting and greeting at the door, to helping serve and bus tables in his white chef's jacket. All the while, an accordianist played in the background. But when the chef owner took the mic and began to sing German songs, it was a bit loud and distracting; hence we give this eatery four stars instead of five. But others may love this musical interlude.

Comfort food personified! There was not one item we didn't thoroughly enjoy. Don't forget to leave room for Apple Strudel!

Have been looking forward to coming here for some time. Food was excellent. Starting with the salad and bread all the way to our entrees. Our server was very knowledgeable on the menu and everyone was very attentive.

We had a reservation for 7 and asked for the bill to be split into 2 parties upon being seated. Service was poor for the entirety of the meal and we had to ask several different people to bring additional rounds of beverages. Food was the only saving grace of the evening, everything was cooked well. We waited another 20 minutes after asking for the bill only to be overcharged for 1 liter of beer which they the took an additional 20 minutes to adjust. They also did not bother to tell us that we could not split the check, as we had previously asked, until we received our revised bill. Naturally we were visibly irritated after being told 2 hours later that they could not split the check and now the owner was poised to intervene. Did he come over to assist and apologize to his wronged customers? No, instead he had the nerve to tell us that we were stressing him out by not having paid the bill yet because people were waiting for the table. Yes you read that correctly, I implore you to read it a second time just in case you are still considering dining at this establishment. I will never be going to this place and I would advise my friends, family, and anyone with a special night such as a birthday, to avoid this place. However if I do not like you then I think you should eat there. A lot.

It was our family Christmas dinner together and the Swiss Chef made it tasty, festive and memorable! Monique greeted us and showed us to our table, Chef Yuli came out to greet us as did his lovely wife, service was spot on! See you on New Years Eve!

Been here many times and its still our favorite - whether just the two of us or in a larger group. Everything is great and the atmosphere is extremely warm and friendly. Outstanding food and service. Lately, we've been having fondue as an appetizer for the table and it is really special, especially during cold weather!

The fondue was excellent, the lady that served us I think was the owner and is Swiss. Authentic dishes and probably one of the only place you can find the Swiss soda Rivella in Los Angeles. Can't wait to go back!
