"I went there to buy around fifteen tacos and sushi, 35°C, not the courage to cook for my guests. Well, the tacos are not takeaway because you have to eat them hot. I explain that I live nearby so they don't have the right boxes... without even knowing how many I was going to take. Now I understand better why it was empty! Didn't ask for sushi, there's no shortage of restaurants here! They lost at least 200. but we still ate well and served with a smile because they didn't have that too!"

"This is the best restaurant I’ve been to in my 4 years of living in Geneva. Yes, it’s on the pricier side but our experience was great. The food (especially the lobster! was really delicious; the dessert menu looked so good so be sure to leave some room and check it out. Personally, its strongest point was the service and atmosphere. The outside terrace is really comfortable and the waiter and hostesses were very welcoming and helpful. I am so glad we found this restaurant!"

"I recently had a work lunch, and I was thoroughly impressed. The staff were welcoming and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience. The cozy ambiance added to the charm. The Orecchia d'Elefante I ordered was good. The portion sizes were generous, and the presentation was impeccable. I appreciated the attention to detail in each dish. The menu offered a range of authentic Italian options to suit various tastes. Whether you're a fan of traditional Italian cuisine or looking to explore new flavors, I highly recommend this restaurant. It's a fantastic place for a delightful Italian meal in a warm and inviting atmosphere. I look forward to returning soon."

"I don't often write a review for any michelin restaurant but this is something else which I believed they did excellent and exceptional job. From me calling making last munite booking, Alex kindly taken my name for him to call me back if the other booking not going to come for the evening. In within 5 minutes he called back and also he goes beyond by saying if any change please hesitate to give him a ring again. When we get there he strait away approach us by using my name as the booking for the evening. As soon we have sat we served by Clement, his service also excellent and beyond. Regarding the food, they are beautiful from look and taste. Toward the end, the head chef Francesca come to every table and asking how was our experience in he food she has created. This is I thought is excellent. I went to many michelin star restaurant and only if you know personally or in the same industry the head chef will come to your table but Francesca, making that extra miles. We did says we love the sausages and she strait away said, happy to pack some for us to take home. I thought this is excellent . I really never have this ever before...and beside Clement also giving us the extra saffron warm homemade bread when we ask because we also love So we really recommend Fiskebar!!! They are excellent in everything Feeling not just only in michelin star restaurant but feeling home too"

"The food here is exceptional! High quality, healthy ingredients are used to create delicious and visually beautiful dishes. We ordered the pad thai salad, the burger and a raw carrot cake to share all of which were incredible. We washed them down with a matcha and chai latte. The only reason I knocked a star off is because they seemed to be short staffed when we visited (on a Sunday) and the place was packed. They ran out of cutlery and cups as they couldn't get them washed quickly enough. As a result , we were given paper cups and we had to wait for cutlery before we could eat! It also meant that the environment wasn't very relaxing. Perhaps a mid week visit would be more pleasant. Price is also steep.. it came to 74 CHF in total, but everywhere is expensive in Geneva, and at least the price is relatively justified by the quality of the food.

"I have had the pleasure of having lunch and dinner several times at Karne and this restaurant is truly a little Italian gem sheltered from the hubbub of the city center. In summer, the shaded terrace is very pleasant and the food is very good. The pasta is excellent and the pizzas are among the best I have had the chance to taste in Geneva (the dough is beautiful and yet so light). The products are of high quality and the staff are extremely helpful and kind! Truly a 5 star restaurant without hesitation and I will be going back there this week! Modification after having lunch at Kytaly this afternoon the pizza at Karne is fluffier and I found it better! So Kytaly? The best pizza in the world? Not on not on! Edit at the beginning of May: refuses to serve tap water even though we are in Switzerland and we are lucky enough to have great water I am immediately removing a star. Damage!"

"First off, I'm not a big fondue guy, but, I'll make an exception for this place. I've only been to Geneva twice and every time I've came here, I have visited this restaurant. The way they do fondue makes them stand out. The vibe of the restaurant is lively and the staff friendly. They really enjoy serving people great food. This restaurant gets so packed and reservations are highly strongly recommended. If I ever visited again, 10/10, I would return. Advice, if you're planning to dine here, skip lunch and come hungry."

"First and foremost they have a place for the coats and please keep persisting, probably people will understand that the jackets has to be hang in the cloakroom, but not on the chairs. They have a very warm welcome, professional and at the same time friendly staff. As for the food it is delicious. I would consider this place as gastronomical. Officially it is not the case, as far as I am aware, however it might be possessed."

"Étant sur le départ donc assez pressée et ne sachant pas où manger, j'ai de suite été attirée par le décor atypique de ce café. L'accueil est super, ça fait plaisir d'être accueillie avec autant de sourires, on a l'impression d'être privilégié. Et côté nourriture on en parle? Fait maison, c'est vraiment délicieux!! J'adore! À bientôt"

"The food is so good. But make sure to call them first if u reserve with 20% off. Coz we didn’t get the 20% off even I got the confirmation mail from the fork, the service man told me after the dinner before the payment that he didn’t receive my reservation. So I didn’t get the 20% off. So better call them or make sure with the service guy that If he get your reservation or not before the dinner. Otherwise foods are good. Good ambiance too"

"I went there mainly because of all the good reviews, which were also seconded by an expat I know in Geneva who likes it. I was frankly puzzled by all the great reviews. The restaurant was OK, but nothing outstanding. Like any one of a...million restaurants in French villages. My steak was somewhat overcooked (I ordered it saignant, but it barely qualified as medium rare), as was my companion’s. This was particularly odd given that both steaks were so very lightly charred on the outside. I have also definitely tasted far better sauce au poivre before. The green salad wasn’t bad. Nor was the pear and almond tart though, again, nothing outstanding, just your standard bistro tart. Bottom line: nothing wrong with having a casual meal here, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it."

"Venus en couple avec le passeport gourmand (grâce à qui nous avons découvert ce restaurant) nous avons été littéralement séduits par tout: le décor est superbe, les tables espacées et très confortables, service au top, sympathique, à l'écoute et tjr présent sans être pesant, bravo les filles! Maintenant passons au repas: quelle magnifique découverte du menu terroir, superbe soupe asperge dés de fera fumés, terrine de lapin estragon goûteuse et magnifiquement entourée d'une feuille de nori qui relève un goût iodé, suivi d'un superbe carré d'agneau cuisson parfaite, maestro! Pour ma femme un foie gras excellent, et une cassolette de ris de veau morilles/cardons frais qu'elle en rêve encore! Le café gourmand nous a laissé sur une note parfaite, 10/10, de l'acidité du gourmand du craquant et pas trop de sucre, voilà du bonheur! Les assiettes sont très belles, magnifiquement dressées, à quand une étoile ou une toque? Essayez ce restaurant c'est l'adopter!! Bravo à toute l'équipe, continuez comme ça! On reviendra très vite."

"Seems like a family run business. They are very friendly, we walked in without a reservation on a busy evening they managed to give us a table aat the bar. Food is 10/10 and value is also 10/10. My first time and meal in Geneva and I can't say how amazed my wife and I were. Very Charming and cozy atmosphere. Can't wait to return"

"Very good, inventive menu which offers a wide choice and top artisanal drinks. I like the burgers of the month which I find atypical! However, I noticed that they put less salad sauce than before, which means that the salad is dry and has little flavor, which is a shame because this homemade sauce is very good. Same for fries, there are a little less. The decoration of the place is cool, it has personality!"

"(Traducido por Google) ¡Es muy fácil llegar a la posada! Los convenientes enlaces de transporte hacen que dar una vuelta sea rápido y fácil, y una cosa que realmente puedo recomendar son los postres. Mi hermana y yo hemos estado allí por segunda vez y hemos probado algo nuevo cada vez que visitamos. El restaurante ofrece ambos: un servicio amable y enérgico. Nos sorprendió completamente. Seguro que ambos volveremos. (Original) Das Gasthaus ist super einfach zu erreichen! Die günstige Verkehrsanbindung macht eine Spritztour dorthin schnell möglich.Etwas, was ich wirklich befürworten kann, sind die Desserts. Meine Schwester und ich waren jetzt zum zweiten Mal da und haben bei jedem Besuch etwas Neues getestet.In dem Lokal erhält man sowohl als auch: freundliche und flotte Bedienung.Wir waren vollauf positiv überrascht. Wir beide werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen."

"WHAT A SUPER GOOD SURPRISE!!! My grandpa told us about this restaurant, otherwise we’d never go there… The starters are tip top Italian yummy specialty… one of the best Milanaise elephant ears you could have in town, and can’t finish with better Italian deserts to dream of… Yes, the restaurant is not hip and not attractive to attract you in, not the decoration, chairs or staff… but the service and wine list are just PERFECT! Give it a try if you’re in for an Italian experience… Seating x1: Ambiance x1: Service x1: Drinks x1: Presentation x1: Food x5: Location x1: Price P/P: $75 $99 Would I recommend this place?

"The hotel has nothing to do with 5 star, we booked it this time just because of the location, but regretted already from the first minutes of our arrival. The man who stands in front of the hotel doors and runs around in the evening to bring the luggages was also delivering small bottles of water that they usually put after making the room, I asked for and he told me that I should use minibar and I told at the reception that he behaves not like in a 5 star hotel unacceptably rude and incompetent behaviour, but young girl at the reception was same level incompetent and she said she will inform her manager. No one, no supervisor no so called manager ever got in tauch with us during several days of our stay. Obviously FISH ROTTING FROM THE HEAD. If you ask for basic things such as to bring a tea cap or to refresh the towels be prepared that you must call for 3 to 4 times that within 1 hour may be or may be not they will bring it. Simply 0 STAR hotel with horrible staff not trained for delivering a 5 star hotel services. It is a big mystery how this hotel is considered 5 star and part of Relais and Chateaux. The only BIG THANK YOU to two of lovely ladies from the hose-keeping who came every evening to prepare our bed for a sleep. If you used to a 5 star hotel services and quality simply do not consider this 0 star hotel."

"My recent stay at a particular hotel was an absolute delight, largely due to the impeccable service provided by the staff. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. Knowing that we had an early departure before breakfast hours, the thoughtful staff went above and beyond by providing us with coffee to go. It may seem like a small gesture, but it made a big difference in starting our day on a positive note. Moreover, the hotel staff went out of their way to assist us in making dinner reservations at a nearby restaurant. Their local knowledge and willingness to help saved us the hassle of navigating through unfamiliar surroundings, allowing us to fully enjoy our evening. Of course, the breathtaking view from the hotel further enhanced our experience. However, what truly set this hotel apart was the exceptional service provided by the staff. Every member of the team, from the front desk to the housekeeping staff, exhibited a genuine commitment to ensuring our comfort and satisfaction. Their friendliness, attentiveness, and professionalism made us feel truly valued as guests."

"I was in many African restaurants in Frankfurt, but the dishes here taste better than anyone we had there. The taste is great and the service is perfect, we had the meat source up and digestion on the house. The details are also taken into account, for example in some restaurants the salad was just a few simple leaves, but here they season it well (i can eat a bowl of salad). My friend said it's not easy to get full with a normal part in restaurants in Geneva and this time four of us are super full. In general, the full experience here is far beyond the expectation and will definitely recommend!"

"If you're looking for an outstanding Italian dining experience in Geneva, look no further than this cozy and inviting restaurant! My girlfriend and I recently had the pleasure of dining here, and we were blown away by the quality of the food, the welcoming atmosphere, and the exceptional service. The standout dish of the evening was definitely the escalope Milanese, which was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. We also appreciated the generous hospitality of the owner, who went above and beyond to make us feel at home. He even treated us to a complimentary limoncello, which was a delightful touch. Overall, we would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in Geneva. Whether you're in the mood for classic Italian cuisine or simply want to relax in a warm and inviting setting, this restaurant has it all. Don't hesitate to make a reservation and treat yourself to an unforgettable meal!"
