Sehr unfreundliches und respektloses Personal
Leider haben wir hier eine sehr unangenehme Erfahrung gemacht. Das Personal war äußerst unfreundlich und respektlos. Uns wurde sogar sinngemäß gesagt: „Nein, Albaner wollen wir nicht, dass Sie hier essen.“
Eine solche Aussage ist für mich eindeutig diskriminierend und völlig inakzeptabel. Wir wollten lediglich in Ruhe etwas essen und wurden stattdessen aufgrund unserer Herkunft abgewiesen bzw. herablassend behandelt.
So ein Verhalten hat in einem Restaurant absolut nichts zu suchen. Ich kann diesen Ort aufgrund dieser Erfahrung nicht empfehlen.

Das Essen war insgesamt okay, aber leider hat der Service unseren Besuch sehr getrübt. Wir hatten einen Tisch am See reserviert. Trotzdem wollte uns ein Kellner den reservierten Tisch zunächst nicht geben und hat uns draussen sehr unfreundlich angeschaut bzw. behandelt und halb angeschrien vor allen Gästen. Erst als ein anderer Kellner dazukam, wurde sofort erkannt, dass wir tatsächlich diesen Tisch reserviert hatten.
So ein Umgang mit Gästen ist meiner Meinung nach nicht angebracht. Fehler können passieren, aber man sollte trotzdem freundlich und respektvoll mit den Gästen umgehen. Schade, denn mit einem besseren Service wäre unser Besuch deutlich angenehmer gewesen.

The food was really good, I think they are taking into consideration previous reviews cause me and my family had a good time even though not all of us had a meal because my sister didn't fancy dinner there. They allow her to sit in the table if we ordered a drink for her and it was all good, I guess it's just a cultural difference. Food was really good and served beautifully.

Terrible hospitality with a pure tourist-trap mindset. The staff refused to let us sit just for drinks, strictly demanding that both of us order a full meal and several tables around us were complaining about the exact same thing. It’s a real shame, because the food was actually very good, but the aggressive, money driven attitude completely ruined the experience.

The food was good, despite the fact the meat and fish dishes are not available during the day time. Pasta frutti di mare is not labelled in the menu as a spicy dish and it was very spicy, and I ordered it for my child, which douldn’t eat it. The service didn’t helped is with the chairs, as we arrived as a large group. We had to bring chairs for ourselves to the table. At the end as we paid I was disappointed by the fact that the service charge was added to my bill by the waiter, and the waiter clicked so quickly on his device that you don’t realise that it was applied to the bill. I’m aware that we need to apply tipp to the bill and it should be my decision, but I have never seen in Switzerland that the waiter has applied the tipps by himself. As I was hesitating to pay it or not I was not offered to remove it. Her persisted with the payment. Obviously a trick at a tourist place to receive more money.
