We always enjoy our fondue here. Consistently good. Service depends on who you get and sometimes you feel forgotten about. Beautiful surroundings especially nice when we have family or friends visiting.

Brasserie restaurant in the old town of Geneva. Historic venue with nice atmosphere and internal rooms. Recommended fondue with pressure glass. Prices understandably high given the context but overall money well spent

The welcome is friendly... The menu is perfect with Genevan culinary specialties and a beautiful list of Swiss wines from the canton... The food is excellent (perch fillets with lemon butter sauce) service (white shirt, bow tie) impeccable.... It's worth the detour, for digestion, a short stroll through the streets of old Geneva full of stories

Nice spot in old town with outdoor seating and history. I like to take friends here who are new to Geneva to get a unique experience and good food Dined here several times over the past 12 years and it does not disappoint. I love sitting outside and absorbing the atmosphere and history around the restaurant. Cobbled streets, government buildings, and energetic people. Fondue is as good as one would expect in Switzerland. That means it's great ( it's the only thing I've had when visiting Hotel de Ville, aside from when stopping just for drinks). Wine list focuses on local wines which I appreciate. Service is always helpful and with the assortment of locals and tourists the staff is always friendly and supportive.

Location is the best, in the heart of the old town where you can both eat and enjoy the vibe. Food was average, the fondue was a bit disappointed as I feels very watery, bread was either too hard or too soft like they dip the hard one in the water. Service is nice and ok but when it gets crowded we need to wait 15mins for the bill.

It might be a little expensive but it was still crowded. We paid 98CHF for 3 burgers (with fries), a 30cl draft beer, a Sprite, and a glass (10dl) of rosé wine.

This restaurant is located in the heart of the old quarter of Geneva. Contact with the servers can seem a little cold and the service is slow at the end of the meal. We had the daily menu at 10 p.m. consisting of a small starter of raw vegetables and a main course with steak, fries and grilled vegetables. The quality/price ratio was excellent. But the cooking remains simple for this price. It's a place to eat without breaking the bank in Geneva if you stick to the daily menu!

The son Glôzu took over from his father, an old establishment in the old town of Geneva, ideally located. Eating there also means sharing a piece of Swiss history. The food is very good, the service is friendly, it's fresh and fragrant. The sausage of the day was exceptional (well spicy). A must therefore. We will regret the price a little but it's a bit like making this criticism of the restaurants on Place du Tertre... ;)

Food is generally fine. Cheese fondue is rather average though. The service is definitely lackluster, dragging down the whole dinner experience. The wait service was long, we were ignored by the lady waiter for long while who seemingly prefer to chat with the local guests than serving the visitors. Half way during our food order she left without any explanation and never came back... Price is definitely on the high side, considering the above.

Went there at about 4-5 pm which was not a rush hour. Many tables there were empty and we asked to be seated. Old waiter yelled at us that it is full and we could only get a drink. It was so rude, not saying sorry or being at least friendly. We were shocked and right after we left older couple went in and were seated immediately.. Which to me seams like you assume young couple would not spend as much as older people? Too bad. We went to restaurant next door where they were really friendly! :)

Love the fondue. We ordered the mushroom and bacon set for 2 and it comes with a side of potatoes and bread the usual for swiss fondue set. A simple yet delicious meal, with the cheese not overly salty or overwhelming. And this is coming from a non-cheese lover. We came by a weekday lunch hour after xmas week and was almost turned away due to no reservation, luckily the outside tables cleared in time. So please call a few days ahead for appointment as it seemed really popular. Btw the kids fish meal is really tasty too.
