Salmen in Olten

Service: friendly and attentive without being intrusive; Food: creative without frills, freshly prepared, fillet tender, aromatic food, wide selection of wines (the open Tempranillo !!!) Let's come back: YES FOR SURE PS: Complaint on a high level - a bit too much sauce for the meat (main course) for my taste.

There is nothing wrong here. Service is courteous and very attentive. You "communicate" with the customers and feel that the staff enjoy working at Salmen, something you often don't feel in other restaurants. In my opinion, the quality of the products combined with the sophistication in the preparation of the dishes is second to none. The wine is at the right temperature, the waiting times between courses are perfect, the drinks are always topped up, the customer's wishes are taken into account, I could name many more points. A real pleasure to enjoy high-quality food in a French bistro ambience. I'm just thrilled...the overall package is right here! Kind regards and see you soon. Greetings AL

Best Swiss food restaurant! Always new plates with a Swiss touch and very tasty and fresh ingredients. The filet mignon is the best I ever had so far! Nice atmosphere and great service!

Based on a recommendation from good friends, we reserved a table and went to the restaurant last night with great joy. The table, well the last time I had a table like that in the aisle was 30 years ago in Bern. We waited almost an hour for our starter, and the good white wine served with it was lukewarm and no longer cold. Well the starter was ok. The plates are certainly not ideal for a nice presentation. Then we waited another hour for the main course, which was ok but disappointed us. It wasn't what we expected. Then a dessert that took some time to arrive. Ice cream was fine, my wife's dessert wasn't worth the sin. We're sorry that someone was unavailable in the kitchen, but it shouldn't affect the performance that much. And in my opinion the plates don't allow for a nice presentation, which is a shame. I'm happy to spend good money on a great meal, but I don't know if I'll come back again. Sorry, I expected more.

By far the best restaurant in the area

Such an authentic place, with a beautiful ambience, great service, and spectacular food!! Highly recommend. I went with my boyfriend and his mother, we had a fantastic dinner experience.

My favorite restaurant. Regional, delicious, lovingly prepared menu. A culinary delight every time.

Disastrous service: had to wait 1 hour for the main course. She said “it was because of the starter”. I'm sorry, what? We waited an hour from the starter. We were there at 6:00 p.m. and still made reservations. Where is the problem? It's super easy to plan, even when the bar is full! I even come there with customers 4 times a year! Let alone the price where it is paid. And this is the service for that? Well, I'll avoid this company now!

Excellent food, SUPER competent service. Only recommended.

It's been a long time since we got a table. Great service, fine food and rooms very clean ☆☆☆☆

Cozy atmosphere, very fine food. Just good 😊

We went to Salmen for a birthday dinner. The table was beautifully decorated and the aperitif ordered in advance was served quickly. We felt completely comfortable. Extra requests regarding the choice of food were not a problem. Afterwards, the staff served a beautiful chocolate birthday cake for the guest of honor. Thanks for a great evening! Keep it up

Service top / food top / It is always a pleasure to dine in the Salmen Restaurant in a very friendly atmosphere. ❤️

Were there to end the evening. Great atmosphere and very nice service. Very happy again.

Food and service TOP. We sat on the terrace facing the street for lunch, so the ambience didn't get the full 5 stars (traffic).

Good home cooking, with a seasonal menu at a high price. The proximity to the city is great.

Tasty food, but service might be improved

Try it - very, very tasty! Top quality at reasonable prices.

For me the most beautiful restaurant in In Olten. There is also wonderful cuisine and excellent service. An interesting wine list rounds off the “total work of art”.

A must for gourmets! The nut salad with liver: outstanding. Wonderfully old atmosphere! Service top!

The beef fillet was really top notch. Wine was chosen by the boss and the magnum was great, the normal bottle soso, nur that wasn't our decision;-)

It tasted delicious and the service was great. Thank you...we'll be back

Very fine food and an extremely nice surprise for my birthday - it was just perfect!

Were there for dinner today. The waitress was very friendly and responded very well to our wishes - greetings from the kitchen were especially vegetarian. Everything was very tasty and very cozy, “homely” atmosphere. Gladly again when we are in Olten!

Good quality. Friendly service. Prices okay.

Service and quality are at a high level and justify the price. Cozy and quiet atmosphere in an ambience steeped in history.

What's going on there in terms of friendliness and cuisine, I can say that the service is always great, very fine and very nice. the local, very nice and now here it comes; His minced meatballs with red cabbage are even better than any beef fillet. what I want to say? Many thanks to all employees and the boss at Salme!!! I always enjoy coming back. thank you very much. rainer

Friendly service, very good quality food, great wines and an appealing atmosphere. We were completely satisfied.

Beautiful restaurant with excellent food (veal liver with nut salad to die for). Great service. A big compliment and we would love to come back.

From the service to the incredibly delicious food, everything was top notch.

Very fine food and the service was absolutely perfect!! The guests talked relatively loudly, so it wasn't quite "comfortable", but it was still harmonious over lunch.

Very tasty menu, flexible when changing a course, very nice service staff, fine wines, good price/performance ratio. We'll definitely come back. 👍😁👌

Waited 2 hours for food 3 years ago. A little faster today, but the wine wasn't refilled, even though it was noticed several times. Took it home in a mineral bottle... it's a shame... the service leaves a lot to be desired. The food was good....

Unfortunately the waiting time is very long. After an hour the greeting came from the kitchen.

Courteous service, very friendly. Restaurant only opens from 6 p.m. We were 30 minutes early. But they would have already been served in the restaurant. Took an aperitif on the terrace. Locally very appealing. In addition to the dishes on the menu, it has 4 daily hits. Food was delicious. Spent a wonderful evening! Thank you

Brilliant restaurant, very fine food and perfect service! We would like to come again!!!!!

Very good food and nice atmosphere

Excellent quality of the food paired with extremely friendly but not intrusive service. Pleasant atmosphere. Always a pleasure. Recommended

We ate here on business and have rarely had such a good entrecôte. Despite the lunch rush, the service was very friendly and quick. The price is also right, I can only recommend it for any occasion.

excellent food, very friendly person, cozy atmosphere, highly recommended

Very good food and friendly service. Gladly again 👌🙂

Great service, great food, great prices and a great vibe

Excellent food, fine wines and excellent service, plus a great ambience. Gladly again!

Wonderful food, very friendly service, price/performance is right 👍

Quite a very pleasant atmosphere, but the cuisine doesn't really come close to the prices and the vegetarian options are unfortunately not nearly worth another visit. It's a shame actually.

As always, fantastic food and great service 👍👍👍 always happy!!!

Always special. Cozy atmosphere in the restaurant. Great food, excellent wine list. Exciting desserts.

Great food & attentive and friendly service!

Wonderful evening/ top food/ top service/ top ambience!

Location... food... service TOP

The Salmen is a well-known Olten address for solid, stylish dining in a pleasant ambience. During my most recent visit, I was impressed by the perfect combination of cuisine and service. All components of my sauerbraten were perfectly cooked and served in a very visually appealing way. A loving composition, ideal timing and a convincing taste experience!

Great food! The pizza is by far the best in the region.

Very tasty cuisine and great service

A pearl in Olten! Atmospheric atmosphere, with an excellent service and exquisite varied cuisine.

Actually very good! Unfortunately, there is no vegetarian version of the evening menu. This means I won't be able to go with my family.

Very pleasant restaurant and excellent food. We recommend!

We wanted to be pampered again for lunch. Thank you to the Salmen team, you did a great job

Just the hammer! Solid, friendly staff, the food is delicious, large menu selection. Unfortunately there was no room for any dessert (Basler Läckerlimousse 😢)

Very attentive staff, quick attentive food very good.

Best address in Olten - mussels are always a recommendation - top quality and the service is always friendly and competent.

Wonderful ambience👍very tasty food👌 ....and the service, wow👍

Regarding the bad review that was written here: This restaurant doesn't even serve pizza. This restaurant is so fine, I felt uncomfortable being invited there because the prices are heavily based on the quality of the food. It's beautifully presented, a lot of it is made from scratch and I've never had such tender meat. Clear recommendation, even if not for those on a budget.

EAT-DRINK-BE very good and surprising dishes varied and exciting drinks menu very friendly and attentive service

A dream. Eating here is so much more than eating food. Always happy.

One of the worst experiences..from payment to service. Not a coordinated work. They ask you to order at food counter, then pay and you are told it will served on the table. We kept waiting for 40 minutes they served pizza and forgot to serve rest of the family. After being reminded they were unapologetic and with so much of attitude served the rest of the family...not a friendly service and personnel. Never going back to them for sure.

Tolles Restaurant mit viel Ambiente. Das Essen hervorragend, die Bedienung herzlich, zuvorkommend und humorvoll. Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen wieder.

Takeaway, very tasty, uncomplicated and good price-performance ratio.

terrace at the top but decoration too dated. very refined and succulent cuisine. daily menu at the top.

Used to be a fantastic restaurant

I have to honestly say that I only got to know Salmen with the take-away offers. I'm excited about that. The food is very, very tasty and the lunch menus are imaginative. I've had the fish menu 2-3 times and there was also a menu salad. I ordered the menu over the phone. The person on the other end of the phone and in the restaurant was always very friendly. In short, a real recommendation!

Extremely friendly and attentive staff, delicious, new ideas from the kitchen that you don't discover so quickly elsewhere and a very relaxed atmosphere in these beautiful, high rooms with parquet floors and stucco ceilings. We celebrated our anniversary and felt very comfortable.

Sehr gut gegessen ineiner angenehmen Atmosphäre und einem tollen Service

Wie immer.... superfein...superfreundlich....immer gerne wieder...

Aufgestelltes, freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal. Essen originell angerichtet und hervorragend. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Essen sehr gut (wir hatten früh reserviert).Leider kamen nach und nach mehr Leute. Das Restaurant wurde voll und es wurde nichts unternommen um die richtige Distanz zwischen den Gästen/ Tischen zu haben. Im Gegenteil: wir sassen praktisch alle aufeinander, denn jeder Tisch wurde besetzt.

Haben zweimal im Salmen gegessen: Das erste Mal ein Mittagessen zu Zweit (Moules et Frites / Fisch) und das zweite Mal mit Freunden ein Nachtessen (Fleisch). Beide Male war das Essen und der Service top! Die Weinkarte enthält gute Schweizerweine aus vielen Regionen, sehr sympathisch.Wir kommen wieder.

(Traducido por Google) Excelente. Ayer tuvimos comida para llevar mi esposo y yo. ¡Dios mío! Ambas comidas fueron exquisitas y tan ligeras, tanto que no podíamos dejar de comer. Fue la comida más deliciosa que tuve en meses. Soy exigente con la comida y me imagino diciendo "Hmmm Hmm delicioso" de principio a fin. Definitivamente volviendo. Y la señora del mostrador fue muy amable. Parece que normalmente tienen un ambiente familiar. Podría comprobarlo cuando termine la fase de corona. ¡Por ahora, no pierdas la oportunidad de probar maravilla! 😊 (Original) Excellent. Yesterday we had takeaways my husband and I. My God! Both our meals were exquisite and so light, so much that we could not stop eating. It was the most delicious meals I had in months. I am a picky eater and imagine me saying “Hmmm Hmm delicious” from start to finish. Definitely going back. And the lady at the counter was very friendly. It seems as if they normally have a family atmosphere. I might check it out when the corona phase is over. For now, don’t miss the chance to taste wonder!😊

Wir waren wieder einmal für ein Abendessen im Salmen. Die Speisen waren sehr gut, wir sind sogar der Meinung dass die Qualität verglichen mit dem letzten Jahr wieder gestiegen ist. Leider kommt der Service nicht mit. In so einem Restaurant erwarte ich, dass die Speisen vorgestellt werden, wenn sie serviert werden. Nach dem Dessert folgte der Tiefpunkt. Wir hätten gerne noch Kaffee bestellt, leider liess sich während einer halben Stunde niemand blicken, man hörte nur ein Geplauder aus der Küche. Schade.

Vom Empfang bis zur Verabschiedung einfach toll..Super Service, Super essen, tolle Location..Und die Weinauswahl passte perfekt.Bis zum nächsten mal!

(Traducido por Google) Si quieres comer bien, si no es barato, este es el lugar para ti. Tuve a Suure Mocke, ¡genial! Un pequeño Sissacher Rosé, también muy especial.

Für ein Mittagessen besuchten wir den Salmen in Olten. Mit dem Essen und dem Service waren wir sehr zufrieden.

(Traducido por Google) Es uno de los mejores en Olten. Siempre buena comida, aunque un poco caro. (Original) It is one of the best in Olten. Always good food even though a bit pricey.

(Traducido por Google) La comida era buena, el servicio también era bueno, estaba bien. Eso con los asiáticos no es cierto fue una semana antes en Valais (Original) Essen war gut die Bedienung auch gut Breis ok .Das mit den Asiaten stimmt so nicht war eine Woche zuvor Im Wallis

Wir waren für das Mittagsessen da. Die Bedienung war sehr unfreundlich, man hat ihr angemerkt, dass sie an Ihrem Job keine Freude hat, respektive ihr irgendetwas nicht passt. War total unprofessionell. Schade, wäre besser sie würde zu Hause bleiben und jemand würde den Job machen, welcher ihn gerne macht. Das Essen war lecker auch wenn die Portionen eher klein und die Preise deutlich zu hoch sind. Wir werden das Restaurant nie mehr besuchen.

(Traducido por Google) Muy buena comida. Ambiente acogedor y servicio amable. Ven de nuevo! (Original) Sehr feines Essen. Gemütliche Atmosphäre und freundliche Bedienung! Komme gerne wieder!
