Very good food. Prices a bit high, but reasonable for Lucerne in/on the lake. The staff is very friendly. We found it a bit strange as it was almost empty. It was during the week. Good for us 👍 and everyone who wants to visit this restaurant!

I recently dined at the charming restaurant Wilhelm Tell on Lake Lucerne, where we indulged in the exquisite Cheese Fondue, expertly crafted by Michael. The dessert was a delightful finale, and the service staff demonstrated utmost professionalism. The unique location on the ship added to the overall enchanting experience, making it a memorable evening. I will recommend this Restaurant to all my Australian Friends.

We celebrated our wedding aperitif in the Wilhelm Tell ship restaurant in autumn 2023. Our guests and we were thrilled by the delicious appetizers, the wine selection, the sophisticated ambience and the beautiful view. The service and support when planning the aperitif was also top from start to finish and we would like to thank Captain Räber and his crew again :) .

You're really looking forward to eating on this disused ship. As soon as you enter, you feel like you've been transported back in time and when you're led into the saloon, something like a captain's dinner atmosphere arises. There were eight of us at a gathering for the same profession in this restaurant. We had reserved in advance and were at a table of three served by "one" waiter. If the concept is such that you can enjoy Fondue Chinoise a Discretion in two hours, there should be no gaps in the side dish and meat replenishment until the guests have had enough. For this price I expect seamless service from the kitchen too. Air conditioning would also be an advantage so that the windows don't tarnish so much and you feel like you're in a sauna. It was a really cool experience and the food is delicious, but the management should think about not saving on staff.

The location on this paddle steamer is of course HIT. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The food was good, we had an aperitif, salad for starters and a fondue chinoise. The sauces were homemade and very tasty! For dessert there was homemade cinnamon ice cream, gingerbread and plum compote. All in all, another very nice experience and I would highly recommend Wilhelm Tell!

Been here again for a long time and it was worth it! Even though we didn't have a reservation, we got a nice table downstairs in the Stübli. We decided on the cheese fondue. Prepared directly at the table in a show cooking session. That is fun! We were served by the learner who made the whole service great! He has a strong sense of service and is very friendly to guests. Bravo! The fondue tasted delicious, as before, and the bread was fresh. The side dishes we ordered also worked. Gladly again!

The “Wilhelm Tell” impresses first and foremost with its breathtaking views of Lucerne, Lake Lucerne and the surrounding mountains. Next, the extremely friendly and competent service is impressive. We were impressed by the down-to-earth cuisine with its freshness and professional workmanship. So there are many reasons to see you again soon.

Dear William Tell crew Today I went to lunch on the great and beautiful ship with my brother and sister-in-law (who came from Bern). It was simply fantastic in every respect, both in terms of cuisine and service (waiter service 5). My beef tartare, for example, was an edible work of art – unsurpassable – unbelievable – great. Even the coming rain - no problem - the roller shutters were immediately lowered and we were able to simply enjoy the great rain with the beautiful ambience and the view of the lake. It was brilliant – even more beautiful and special than with sunshine. What more could you want – a big compliment to the likeable, super friendly and simply brilliant crew. Captain Eduard – eating and enjoying is so much fun – we would love to come back. sincerely Rolf, Markus and Therese Buzzi

Wonderful. Very very nice service, nice ship. The coupe look exactly like the picture on the card. I've never seen anything like it. Most of the time the picture is more like a burger restaurant and only has the same ingredients as what you get. Not like that here, all coupes looked like the pictures. Prices are rather high, but hey, you get something out of it ;-)

Ahoy Captain Räber I would like to thank you, also on behalf of our partners, for the wonderful evening on the Wilhelm Tell. It was beautiful and we enjoyed it to the fullest. Also my explicit thanks to Michael and Therese. The two of them really spoiled us – great team! Also our thank you to the galley! The Lozärner menu was a hit, well cooked and enjoyed with pleasure. The wine was an excellent recommendation. My favorite was the white wine, although I usually prefer the red wine. Please send our congratulations on the good wine to the Mächler family of winemakers. One partner was a little sad when he realized we weren't going to leave. But who needs to go on a trip with such a spectacular backdrop?! I wish you continued success with the Wilhelm Tell (a true pearl) and look forward to seeing you again from time to time.

I always enjoy going to the ship's restaurant Tell. I recommend you enjoy the Fondue Chinoise. The Captains Dinner also fulfills all wishes. Take the time to linger on the ship with food and drink, with great service and a wonderful atmosphere, whether on deck with a view of the local mountain Pilatus or down in the hall when the weather is bad. Easily accessible even with a wheelchair (not on the deck) but the staff are even more attentive and will be at your side.

RIPPED OFF BY THE WAITER !!! BUT FINALLY REFUNDED. After lunch on Friday Nov 11th, the total of the check showed an amount of 41.50 CHF. I realized later that the waiter charged 45.50 CHF to my credit card. I was already 200 km away from the place, so I could not go back to complain. I have nothing against tipping a friendly server, but it does not work like this. The money was simply stolen from my card without my knowledge by a disrespectful waiter. So if you don't want a bad surprise, simply don't go there ! FURTHER ENHANCEMENT : after contacting the owner, he finally decided to refund the 4 CHF. But it was not easy !

I came across this beautiful ship in Lucerne while walking past. I then went into this ship for a hot chocolate and a portion of dessert. I think the dessert was called SchoggiTraum or something similar =). Very nice service and very tasty dessert. The view from the ship over the lake and towards Pilatus, the city and further into the distance invites you to linger or take a little break. Definitely recommended 5 stars 10 points. Thanks

If you want to experience active racism in the 21st century at one of the most developed countries, please do visit this place. We wanted to visit this place because we heard a lot about it. While we were all smiles when we entered the place, we left it with almost astonishment and disgust. It felt like the staff did not want to accomodate us in the first place. On requesting them for vegetarian options, they frowned and told us we only have these three and nothing else can be done for you. And when we decided to leave politely, they went to another table and made snooty remarks about "Indians". We do not know how wonderful an experience the other "non-Indians" have had here, but this is definitely not an experience any "human" would want. Thank you for making us feel less highly about your country and much better about ours. Atleast we have been taught to always treat our guests with utmost dignity and respect.
