Restaurant Stockhorn

This is absolutely the best grill in town. The salads are delicious; we had the celery root salad with viand sechee; and the rabbit salad. Our meal was followed by the spicy beef skewers and venison grill. The herb butter that accompanies the grillades is addictive. I’d argue this place also makes the best potato gratin in town.

Vermochte beim gestrigen Besuch leider überhaupt nicht zu überzeugen. Ein übersalzenes Stück Lamm, den Garpunkt um Welten verpasst und statt «saignant» wurde dieses «bien cuit» serviert. Die Beilagen solala. Leider bei diesem Besuch eindeutig zu wenig Leistung fürs Geld. Schade.

We had a great dinner here after a lovely day in zermatt. I had the lamb chops which were perfect and my husband had the veal. Accompanied by polenta and as gratin potatoes — we shared all and a very nice Syrah. Lovely service and space. Highly recommend this charming restaurant.

Stockhorn Grill Restaurant is probably my most favorite restaurant in Switzerland. REALLY! I JUST SAID IT! WAM!
I came here twice, once with my mother, once with my boyfriend.
The chicken skewer marinated in sesame oil and ginger was the best chicken my mother had ever tasted… AND I HAD EVER TASTED! It actually fell apart in your mouth. It was so flavorful and delicious. I had never tasted chicken with that much flavor and with a perfect texture. It was so SO soft but somehow all the flavor didn’t overpower it. It was perfect.
The side of potato gratin was the best gratin I had ever tasted. To be honest, I dig the packaged stuff that you just add water (and maybe butter) to, but this kicked all other potato gratins out of the park. The combination of cheeses and perfectly cooked and sliced potatoes was phenomenal.
And then there was the combo of meats on a skewer. Holy shiznit. There was bacon, and steak, and pork, and some type of sausage, and at least two pieces each (great for sharing). Holy hell I don’t think I’ve tasted so many smokey– amazing flavors on one plate. It was absolutely delicious.
The fondu was great, very rich and strong cheese. And the roesti was ok (kinda like hash browns). But I’m not a huge fan of roesti anyway.
The service was wonderful, the décor is so sweet and traditional Swiss, cozy and beautiful. And the food. MAN YOU GOTTA TRY THE FOOD.

Wunderbares am offenen Feuer zubereitetes Chateaubriand (für 2 Personen). Generell ganz hervorragende Fleischgrillerichte. Gute Weinauswahl. Ordentliches Fondue (aber ich würde hier immer das Fleisch nehmen) Achtung: die Portion sieht zunächst klein aus, aber es wird nachgelegt. Im Winter immer voll: reservieren!
