Great cult restaurant. Service could be better and more attentive. FR. 16.50 for an Aperol Spritz is probably no more!

The outdoor restaurant seems typical but a little advice is out of your way. The prices are exorbitant for what you get on your plate. The ketchup was expired.

Nice restaurant with a rustic atmosphere and very good, fast and friendly service. We had barely placed our order when our drinks arrived. We didn't wait long for the food either. It was very delicious. Prices are high, but that's what we were prepared for in downtown Basel.

CATASTROPHIC! I have never experienced such an unpleasant moment in my life! We arrived at 8:30 p.m. to a non-existent welcome from the waitress! Then we waited 40 minutes with a very dirty table to take our order only to be told in the end that it was no longer possible and that the kitchen was closed! It was totally lunar!

We arrived with my colleagues at 8:30 p.m. the waitress places us on an uncleared table, we wait 25 minutes for the extremely unpleasant waitress to come and take our order, after another 25 minutes her colleague brings us the drinks, we ask her to kindly clean our table, this which he did really quickly... the waitress came back to see us 10 minutes later to tell us that the kitchen was closed... it's a big joke, being a chef I've never had this kind of experience, I strongly advise against going to this restaurant and the comments that I read afterwards confirm that this restaurant does not even deserve to have a single customer. If you pass advice, RUN AWAY

Deplorable, I've never seen that. Welcome already cold and unpleasant when we arrived. After waiting 30 minutes for the waitress to come take our order, we had to wait almost 20 more to get our drink served. At this point we asked for our table to be cleaned. The waitress finally came back another 10 minutes later to tell us that we could no longer eat because the kitchen had closed and of course without any embarrassment or word of apology. Furthermore, the prices seem overpriced: 33.- for a fondue + 8.- for potatoes + 7.5 for pickles, or 48.50 for a simple fondue. To be avoided at all costs, a real disaster.

Really bad. To avoid. Two adults and a small kid. Ordered drinks and a fondue specifically without alcohol, for the kid to try it for the first time. The fondue came and it was with alcohol! The drinks didn’t came until after the fondue was on the table. For that the waiter had to be reminded twice! Same with the fondue forks. The waiter didn’t bring any and had to be asked for it. No plates were brought to the table. Really bad experience :(

First day in Basel, after many hours traveling, six of us sat down hoping for our first taste of traditional Swiss fare. The service was dreadful. Took forever to get drinks and water and we were NEVER able to place our food order! The waitress waited on many other tables while completely ignoring us. When I tried to get her attention she sneered and looked away. We finally said we were leaving and to bring us the check. THAT she appeared with immediately. Oh and 8 CFH (approx $8) for each bottle of water! Horrible experience and a terrible welcome to a beautiful city.

In fact, the waitress (older lady) entered CHF 20.00 into the device. So I paid CHF 80.00. What an impudence! Switzerland of today! Shame yourself!

We visited this restaurant as a family of eight with small children and a pregnant woman. The lady came over and poured lighter fluid on the fondue that was already lit! This exploded! My son had a high neck gilet on luckily but it burnt through the padding, my pregnant daughters coast also burnt and whilst checking everyone else was ok my leg was on fire! Burnt through my trousers and on a day trip so had the rest of the long day burnt with a hole in trousers my 8 year old son was so traumatised he had to be taken away by my elder daughter and was told it would be dealt with. I was given an email address and had a reply then nothing they have not reimbursed any losses and refused to give insurance details even after several times of asking. Do not visit! Very dangerous

American Review 🇺🇸 - So I have been dreaming about the fondue that I got here ever since I had it. I don’t know why, but it was soooooo good. Their fries weren’t bad either.

A touristy place in the best possible sense. This is the "Stube" to have all your traditional flammkuchen, cordon bleu, rösti, schnitzel, fondue. The super friendly, English speaking staff will take the best care of you. All that aside, it is overpriced even for Swiss standards, the quality of ingredients and the way of preparation (saw many burnt plates while there) just don't justify the price range. Lots of potential there if it won't be about quickly showing a glimpse of typical dishes to overseas tourists with the minimum effort from the kitchen.

Looked very appealing. But when we parked our bike briefly to discuss where we wanted to turn it on, a lady who was a guest shouted at us so badly that we lost interest. After looking at the good ones, we were unsure whether the place was made for us or not for the thirsty regulars who would scare away the customers and prefer to drink liters of beer in peace.
