Waldhaus - Riederalp

This restaurant serves a delicious swiss and european kitchen. All is pecisely cooked and prepared ans service is prima qualität.

Friendly staff and good choice of a la carte as well as fixed evening menu. Food was good. Limited seats next to the window for a view of the mountains so reserve ahead if you want a specific table, especially on the weekend.

This has been our favorite dinner experience in Switzerland, most of our time in which has been in this Aletsch Arena area. The food was amazing, with beautiful presentation as well. The wine list is extensive, backed by a great wine cellar, and our choice of a recommended organic Pinot Noir from the area was excellent. The restaurant and the hotel it is part of are so beautiful, with a wonderful view and a lot of character - a reading room with the fireplace burning and a "smoking room" with a turntable and large collection of classic rock LPs, for example. But most of all, the friendly and kind service and attention made us feel as part of the family and we want to go back not just to eat but to stay in the hotel when possible.The price of the food was very reasonable too, with a complete fixed price menu available for 47-53 Francs (depending on choices) which included appetizer, soup, the beautiful salad buffet, a full entree, and an excellent dessert. We especially loved that there is a lot of attention to making things natural and healthful, with many organic options and with a wonderful salad buffet with beautiful varieties of fresh greens and vegetables and many kinds of organic oils, vinegars, homemade dressings, etc. There are good vegetarian options on the menu and so it's really a place you can feel like coming back to repeatedly and it will be good for you. And they accept American Express!

We were served several regional specialties, and the family and staff were more than willing to accommodate special requests.

Food is 5-Star!!! Healthy and bountiful, the chef's talents in preparing the food and the presentation were phenomenal.
