Restaurant Le Farinet - Crans-Montana

Strongly not recommended, the service came to tell us that we will have to wait 15 minutes before receiving our dish: as a result an hour later we were still paying attention. When they arrived they had not prepared the right dish and everything was cold. When you pay 45. for a meat dish you expect a minimum of respect towards customers…

Nice restaurant, great service and good food!

Very good pasta and friendly service! Small downside: On my dish (pasta with shellfish ragout sauce the quantity was a little low and lacked sauce, but it was very good! My partner's dish (pasta with eggplant, etc. was delicious. Very good quality bread as an accompaniment! We will come back to try other dishes, especially those cooked in the parmesan wheel.

We have been coming back to Crans Montana every year for 16 years we know what restaurants are available in the area, but for some reason had never tried Le Farinet, so decided to give it a go and had high hopes given the good reviews. However, we had a very poor experience. The service was extremely slow, it took 20 minutes just to bring us menus (and we had a reservation). I then ordered a dish with the primary ingredient being seitan and when the food arrived, quickly realized the seitan was missing. I notified the waiter and he said oh, I’ll ask the chef and brought the food back to the kitchen after which it took 20 minutes for the dish to come back to me with its intended primary ingredient. Meanwhile, the rest of the people I was eating with were waiting to eat their food and of course 20 minutes later, their food was cold. Mistakes happen, I understand but the worst part about the experience was the response and attitude to the mistake. No coming to the table while I was waiting for the food to apologize, explain the mistake and even when the food finally came and we were quite cross with the delay, no real sense of an apology, just very cold and matter of fact. Finally, when we asked one waiter for the bill, we waited 20 minutes only to have another waiter give us the dessert menu and had to ask for it all over again. Additionally, even though our experience was tainted by the bad service, I can honestly say the food was bland. A few people at our table got the quinoa curry dish and there was little to no hint of curry flavor and the seitan, when it finally came, felt like it was just thrown in with a watery broth. So overall, although it’s in a great location and has a nice terrace, I wouldn’t recommend Le Farinet go to one of the other lovely restaurants in Crans Montana, and you’ll have a better experience.

Wir hatten keine Reservation, trotzdem erhielten wir einen Tisch im Freien.Der Service war einfach wunderbar und sehr zuvorkommend, nicht selbstverständlich für Crans Montana, grosses Kompliment!Wir erhielten einen Wärmepilz und zu späterer Stunde Lammfelle, so hatten wir es sehr gemütlich.Das Essen war hervorragend, die Auswahl top und die Empfehlungen einfach toll.Es gefiel uns so gut, dass wir für den nächsten Abend gleich nochmals einen Tisch reservierten.
