Restaurant Hirschen, La Sorpresa, Amsteg in Silenen - Telefonnummer, Reservierungen, Bewertungen

A reservation is recommended as it fills up very quickly. Groups, birthdays and other occasions can be implemented very well.

Simply great, the food is a poem and the service as if you were king…

We arrived late but we were greeted with a smile and seated immediately. We ate the best ravioli ever and really felt all the warmth of the nice couple who owns the restaurant. They even brew their own limoncello and other liqueurs! Fantastic!!!

Great food, great service. Wild. Venison schnitzel is awesome.

Super good food. I entered by accident. Very nice service, I recommend it, maybe I will come back there someday

Today I had a very fine meal of game, very well prepared! The staff is very friendly and the service is very good. I would love to come back to try more specialties!

Everything's fine, thank you very much

We had a very good risotto with porcini mushrooms. The service was friendly and attentive.

Arrived wet and with dogs and - unlike the Hotel Restaurant Stern opposite - was treated very friendly and helpfully. Special requests for food are no problem. Everything lovingly homemade, very tasty! Full recommendation!

Fine Italian restaurant very tasty... You will receive a very friendly welcome! Very friendly staff! The restaurant also has a small but very cozy terrace! The food was very tasty! Delicious dishes! The tiramisu is a DREAM!!!!!! We recommend the restaurant 100%!!!!!! A nice Italian restaurant.

Nice and simple Italian restaurant

Great restaurant, great ambience, great cuisine prepared by the chef himself. Gladly again...

Great hospitality! The staff is super nice and you feel really welcome! You won't experience something like this anywhere else :) The food is fantastic!! Delicious risotto selection, tagliatelle Vesuvio etc.! What you also shouldn't miss is the game season and be sure to try the homemade limoncello, which you can also buy to enjoy at home or as a great souvenir to give as a gift!

found in passing I ate an excellent char accompanied by very tasty vegetables and potatoes. My friend chose a plate of spaghetti with mussels and couldn't finish it because it was so plentiful! The chef is super nice and very friendly. Thanks for the experience!

After a long walk, we decided to get something to eat. I ordered spaghetti peperoncino and I enjoyed every bit of it. (This simple dish is hard to find in America, it's a pretty standard menu in Japan) My husband ordered Risotto Alla carbonara, he was happy with his food as well. We are pretty full but the waitress told us, they have homemade tiramisu, we had to try it. We got one to share, The portion was a good size and it was perfect for us to share. And it was delicious too. We loved it.

Excellent risotto and great service

I would have liked to give it a 6th star. Absolutely great.

Excellent cuisine away from the motorway

We stopped by chance to take a break from Zurich to Ticino, excellent food, excellent service, courtesy and above all very nice to our children! From Sardinia a guarantee of hospitality, thank you and see you next time! A special greeting from Aurora!

Always great food at a reasonable price! Friendly staff

Consistent cuisine with a “small” (still large) afternoon menu. Friendly service in a family environment.

Delicious food. Fine homemade gnocchi. Also delicious homemade chicken nuggets for the kids. Very friendly staff. This dining restaurant is highly recommended.

As always, enjoyed a wonderful dinner at La Sorpresa in Amsteg UR.

Wow, who would have thought that there was the most delicious Italian (Sardinian) cuisine here. Highly Recommended! We'll be back <3

A must- visit place. We went on a rainy Sunday for lunch with your 2 year old on our drive back to Zurich. The food was outstanding 💕. We had the tomato soup and the house soup. Both delicious and creamy. Then we had 2 types of risotto. You can choose small or large portions. The best risotto I’ve ever had. It was served from the cheese block onto our plate (as in the picture). The coffees came with catuccinis on the house. The service was beyond friendly, the place was cosy and toilets very clean. Just a fantastic experience to eat there. We’ll definitely go back. Next time I’ll try to local meats that were the specials of the day.

All rooms are way too loud. Very very bad acoustics. Portions extremely small (far too little)

Very friendly service, super tasty food, meat super tender

Update October 2022: We went back again to enjoy the cooking skills of the chef of this great restaurant. This time as a starter a tuna carpaccio, wild boar fillet and a deer entrecote. Dessert lemon and mango sorbet for my wife and I had an ice cream with the flavors pistachio, nuts and chocolate. Extremely good quality of fresh products and great taste and presentation. September 2022: We received a wonderful culinary treat tonight. The welcome was very warm and it felt like we were regular guests even though it was our first time here. The game season has started and we had the Nussli salad beforehand. A lamb's lettuce in an iceberg lettuce leaf with bacon and chanterelles. Then a deer sirloin steak and a chamois sirloin steak. With red cabbage, Brussels sprouts, spaetzle and a delicious sauce with chanterelles. Delicious and very tender meat. The service is very attentive and friendly. It gave me the impression that this was a family business because the cooperation between them runs so smoothly, but this is not the case. The chef is Italian, and you immediately notice that in the preparation and presentation of the dishes. Definitely recommended to eat here when you are on your way to the Gotthard Tunnel.

Big cinema. Welcoming hosts, great game plate and homemade ravioli. Everything is just right and it was a great pleasure for us :-)

Very fine food, everything freshly prepared. Very friendly staff. We will definitely come again.

+ delicious food + very friendly service + Restautant is nicely designed + reasonable prices + Restaurant is simple (you don't pay for every bell and whistle and there are two menus to choose from, which probably contributes to the low prices) + Salad and soup are included in the main course + Possibility for a small portion + The waitress asked us after we ate if it had been enough. We replied that it would have been a little tight (because we had already covered 30km by bike and still wanted to ride to Wassen). She then took our plates and we expected to just get more fries. Instead we got the whole main course again (fries, mushroom and meat sauce and vegetables). We were definitely full afterwards. Restaurant is highly recommended, is a nice place for a lunch break before the Gotthard.

Stopped here after passing the Gotthard, in two words, „pleasant surprise“, professional + friendly service, food is great and beautiful decorated on the plate, will make it a regular stop on our way to and from Tuscany.

Had the salmon ravioli. Were very tasty! Service was courteous and very friendly. Gladly again!

Entered the terrace in a good mood - left bitterly disappointed. Why? We ordered a cappucino, a tiramisu and a cold drink. After we received the drinks and drank them, we asked for the bill. Lo and behold, we received the tiramisu about 15 minutes late. The waitress insisted on payment, because after all, an order is an order! The next shock came when paying - the small piece of tiramisu was charged at 11.50 SFR. Perhaps this price is normal for a restaurant of this class - but we found it far excessive. The waitress kindly packed us a piece of tiramisu - by the way, it was very tasty, but understandably it had a bitter aftertaste. Given these circumstances, we will visit a different restaurant next time.

The house is a bit old. But the food is extremely fine and fresh. For me one of the top 5 restaurants in the canton of Uri. Also worth mentioning is the friendly and prompt service.

What can I say, Switzerland is certainly expensive but charging prices like that just to take advantage of the situation is unacceptable to me. Paying 9 euros for a liter of water or 11.50 for a tiramisu is ridiculous!

Enjoy your meal Very nice staff

Extremely nice service. We were with 2 small children and felt very comfortable. The food healthy and delicious. We will definitely come back. Thank you!

On our way to Lucerne, we stop in this typical restaurant. Welcoming as if we were family. The food was exceptional, especially the dish of the day: beef/pork in mushroom sauce accompanied by the best potatoes we have ever eaten!! Again huge compliments to the chef, greetings from the Romans!

Great 👍 On the terrace you have a good overview. The service is very friendly and helps with putting together the menu. The food is freshly prepared and very tasty. I'll definitely go there again.

The risotto was excellent, the service was very friendly. Everything 1A, we'll be back. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Super fine cuisine, very creative! Great and friendly service! Good price-performance ratio. We were there for a company event with 10 people, WE WOULD LOVE TO COME AGAIN 🌹🍀🌹

Extremely nice service. The food was delicious! We took fish and risotto. There is an option to select large or small portion which is very helpful. It was a pleasure to eat there!

Great service and excellent food!

As always, very nice and super good

Food good, staff friendly but had to wait ages for the food!

Super tasty and inexpensive lunch menu (CHF 15.50 pasta with wild garlic pesto incl. soup + salad) 😋 very friendly staff and cozy, family atmosphere ☺️ I can highly recommend it 🤩

Excellent Mediterranean and local cuisine. Well-rehearsed team, family atmosphere! Very good price-performance ratio! Come back soon.

Service unfriendly. Food absolutely inedible, ravioli not fully cooked (most likely from the freezer), taste not at all. Tomato sauce also has no taste! Cook is probably not an expert! Stay away from this restaurant!

The best bruschetta and spaghetti aglio olio et peperoncino in the entire canton. Very friendly staff, great chef. Keep it up!

Top. Great food at fair prices.

Very tasty game dishes! Recommended! Friendly staff.

We stopped here on our way through. Even though there was an event today and we didn't have a reservation, we were still able to stop in quickly. We ate very well and the friendliness and service was exceptional. Many many thanks!

After spending the day in the mountains snowshoeing around Arnisee we were pleasantly surprised to stumble onto this little gem. The food was excellent and the service outstanding. It’s been a while since we’ve had such a friendly and wonderful experience.

Very tasty, it's worth the trip to Amsteg👍👍👍

Great kitchen, chef and staff excellent...Rating: Star kitchen 5 stars...Staff 5 stars

At Deby and Alessandro, every guest is as warmly welcomed as if they had always been a regular. The family atmosphere gives guests a comfort that is unrivaled by the exceptional talents of the kitchen and service, starting with the finest home-made pasta specialties through to the wonderful meat and fish dishes, which are lovingly and very skillfully prepared and arranged. The differences from others lie in the details… and, not least, on the plate, which is served by skilful hands. And everything according to the motto: Come as a guest and leave as a friend…. Gladly again!

Very good food. Friendly and courteous service.

We ended up in Hirschen by chance while passing through. The restaurant is a real insider tip: great food, great menu, great staff. Both young and old are absolutely thrilled!

I passed by by chance, leaving the motorway hungry before crossing the Gotthard to return to Italy. Warm welcome, quick but nice lunch. A special mention to the chef's fried potatoes... I still dream of making them again.

Super well eaten!! Italian touch, but also toughness and game! A stopover to recommend!!

We were thrilled. Food, service, everything!!!

Friendly service, very good food, nice atmosphere in the restaurant

We came to the Hirschen (La Sorpresa) by chance and landed a real lucky hit. The risotto was amazing and was served in a very original way or prepared on site. The dessert was also excellent and beautifully presented. We'll definitely come back.

A stop of surprise with fine dishes and beautiful location!!! We had a fine risotto with mushrooms there, everything was wonderful, served at a reasonable time, tasted delicious and was super clean!! You can also park easily Thank you for la Sorpresa Fay

I can only recommend it to everyone 🍽️🍷☕🤗👍

We were served very, very friendly and ate extremely well. The price-performance ratio is convincing. We were also recommended a top daily menu that we were very happy to order. The offerings on the menu are very varied and yet still manageable. There is something that suits everyone. The ambience looks very inviting even from the thoroughfare. We were passing through and spontaneously stopped when we saw the Hirschen restaurant with its spacious terrace and the attractive and inviting “flower-decorated facade”. There are also enough parking spaces available.

A wonderful menu with veal liver

Rustic and tastefully furnished... The boss places great value on fresh products that taste absolutely fantastic. Recommended!!!

Great service, perfectly prepared with a lot of love and very fine delicacies can be served again at any time. In our opinion, it's just perfect with you... Greetings Erich

Great food, pleasant and friendly service, it's a shame it's closed on Wednesday otherwise I would eat there again in a heartbeat.

The surprise !!!! Super super !!! Professional and friendly waitresses! Cozy and nice place The best is their quality and abundance dishes at a very good price for being Swiss!!! Fantastic ! We recommend it to everyone who passes near Andermatt...

Very well-run family restaurant with good cuisine and attentive service Im worth a visit

We ate there for the first time last night, we can only recommend it, the service was super friendly and attentive, the food was right on point, it was a perfect evening all around. So we will definitely come back next time we are in Switzerland, keep it up! 😉 deserves 5 stars

Excellent local, would love to eat there again mfg Markus

New team la Sorpresa, with Debbie and Allesandro.. Top food, good times.

Historical atmosphere, quite narrow choice - extremely kind manager and staff.
