Of course, the food was excellent. However, it’s really the people that work there that made the experience memorable. As a solo traveler, i was eating there alone but the server, which was extremely kind, made sure i didn’t feel lonely and was just very caring. Would 12/10 recommend

We visited this small restaurant in the old town having found it on google. Really friendly welcome, lovely casual feel with a sense of local community. We went for cheese fondue which was superb, but other dishes that were served looked excellent and wholesome. Daniel who served us was so helpful and fun. By going we also got to see the old town which was really interesting and less commercial than the main town on the lake. That’s not saying that the lakeside isn’t beautiful. It is stunning.

Our group of 6 was lucky enough to have Zack as our waiter. Very personable young man who took great care of us. We all had the combination dinner of charcuterie, followed by delicious cheese fondue, then meringues with Gruyère double cream. Also nice Chasselas wine and finished with limoncello. Altogether delightful and delicious meal. This place is tiny and tucked away, but worth the effort to find. We made a reservation, suggest others do the same.

The service was very friendly, but the majority of the menu was not available that evening and therefore we left without having dinner at this restaurant.

Food was exceptional … The fondue was amazing and the beef bourgouignon with potatoes was slow cooked in a red wine jus succulent beyond words The server Daniel was so patient and knowledgeable and even offered us the crème brûlée for dessert - totally made out last evening in Montreux memorable Please do not miss this quaint little treat in the heart of the old town

Loved this place. Waiter was excellent! Funny and friendly. Did not get his name hit bye was from Columbia originally - he was excellent. Good was great! Reservation didn’t actually show up even though we made it a few hours before showing up. Little gem of a restaurant! Highly recommended.

Grutli sits high up, above the town in a residential area. It is worth the short walk up from the lake. Great, freshly prepared food. Really attentive staff and a very homely feel.

Outstanding dining experience and a very pleasant surprise. Superb cuisine, delicate meals coming out of a tiny kitchen. Our group consisted of experienced foodies, and we would not hesitate to compare the quality to Michelin-rated restaurants. Wonderful staff and a lovely cook who came out of the kitchen just to ensure we were happy customers. A memorable moment on our trip, and a culinary highlight.

Small and cozy place with intimate atmosphere, warm staff and great food. House wine was great. I tried the Peruvian ceviche and veal, both well prepared and flavorful. This is a place to go to get away from Main Street restaurants and try something local.

We had a wonderful time. It really is a hidden gem and a lovely walk up the hill. We were attended to so well by the friendly owner and staff. The food was wonderful and they were very accommodating to letting us try a lot of different things and share between us. We shared the tasting menu and beef bourguignon. Everything was fantastic! They even brought out a mousse au chocolat for our six year old. I highly recommend to anyone, who wants to get away from the hotel restaurants.
