What customers say?

“ Nice food, but slow. Long wait between courses. Service was very slow - which was surprising for a Michelin guide restaurant. Cutlery wasn’t replaced or changed between courses; after the cocktails we requested right at the start of the meal, we weren’t asked if we wanted anything else to drink throughout the meal; we had to ask for more water after our bottle was empty for 20 mins. A nice restaurant, but being Michelin guide raised our expectations to other similar restaurants and overall we were left disappointed. ”

“ Creative. Delicious. Great concept with the same sized portion. Kind service. Highlight was the filled ravioli! Definitely a gourmet restaurant but with reasonable prices! ”

- Rainer Görg -

“ I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the restaurant Roter Bären. We had an interesting gastronomic experience with most plates being a success. Quite expensive but good value for money if you celebrate a special occasion or fancy a high-end bistronomic experience. ”

“ My review is based on the bar, as I didn’t have dinner there. It felt a bit overrated, cocktail was just a regular cocktail not even cold enough…. You pay more for the views of the terrace that in the weekend is too crowded (no music in the background ) just a lot of noise of someone’s else conversations ”

- Alejandra Ruiz Lopez -

“ Combination of beyond boundaries world food, such as kimuchi, katsuo-dashi, greek cheese, chili, coriander, olive and so on… You would be surprised at how they mush up each typical traditional food and ingredients of each country and region. It is very creative but looks and taste is very simple, of course deeply tasty. ”

“ Wow. First of all, the atmosphere was amazing - intimate and cozy yet modern. But man, the food was incredible! I think the menu rotates but some of my favorites were the celery/white chocolate/quinoa soup, grilled lettuce with potato ice cream & truffle shavings, truffle tagliatelle w egg, and the venison with spatzle and cherry. Prices are set for 3, 4, or 5 plates per person; my friend and I ordered 4 each (to try the full menu of 8 items total) and we were quite full (but very happy). The service was great, from recommending good wines to asking if we needed a break between courses (which we did). Overall, it was excellent!! ”

- Stephanie Casler -

“ The food was really good however the service needs to be really improved. The tall guy serving seemed to be in a wrong place and was not helpful at all. Nor did he wanted to answer questions. When you are spending roughly 120chf per person and are a group of 5 people you need to be more friendly and willing to explain the menu. ”

- Fareeha Karim -

“ Excellent dinner - especially the soup with asparagus stood out! Wine was well selected as well. Will definitely come back. Three vegetarian options were available. ”
