Reviews for Swiss Fondue By Heinz in Stowe, VT
My wife and I were traveling from Colorado and looking for a unique dinner experience. We stumbled on this beautiful, family... owned authentic Swiss fondue restaurant. The dining experience was excellent. Having been to Switzerland on several occasionsthis is the most authentic that we have visited in the US. They have a selection of German, Belgium and other beers along withwines from several countries including Argentina and Switzerland. We had the cheese fondue and finished with the chocolate fortwo. The fondue is served in true Swiss style with baguette bread and sliced apples. This isn't an Americanized fondue whereyou have 20 different things to dip, instead the simple bread and apples make the amazing mix of warm cheese the hero of theevening. The chocolate was a dark mix served with marshmallows, pound cake, apples and bandanna slices and was delightful. Highly recommend this restaurant for the authentic experience, ambiance, amazing food and wonderful family who owns and runsthis establishment. Thank you for a wonderful evening! Read more
Its a tourist trap. First of all, it is run by a family of southeastern asian. The food is not authentic. Second, it imposed 20%... tip on our bill . After we protest, the waitress agrees to lower to 18%, against our wishes, just because it is their "rule".Third, its overpriced. We paid $45 for a small plate of beef. We ordered 3 main course broth and 2 desert. We ended up withpaying $300. Most of us still feel hungry after this. We were deceived by the name.. I thought it would be an authentic fonduerestaurant. They treated the local customers and tourists differently. They did not provide paper napkins and said they neverprovide napkins but only table cloth. Read more
Cute little restaurant with a nice atmosphere. Food was half decent but prices were very high. There were charges for sharing... and a 18% included gratuity fee, both of which were clearly stated. Definitely seems like a tourist trap to me and a dinner at6:30pm only had 3 tables booked. Although there?s not any other fondue places nearby, I would hold off on this restaurant. Read more
We came here Thanksgiving Night 2021 looking for something different. First time ever in Vermont. Mr Heinz sat us down early and... recommended the warm wine. That?s the best thing I have ever tried. Place is friendly, service amazing, people are warm and foodextremely delicious. Even though quantity of food is not the biggest comparing to the prices, it?s worth it. We went with 2teenagers that didn?t even knew what fondue was and ate a lot and were very in love with the place. Keep it up!!! Great amazingrestaurant 100% recommended. Read more
Great little fondue place. Everything was top quality. Mushroom soup was surprisingly good too! Owner is super nice. You can... tell it's a local family owned business. Little pricey, but Stowe is. It is worth it! Save room for dessert! Read more
Delicious dinner - had the cheese option and the beef option. The beef was some of the most tender I've ever had and the... cheese was excellent. Attentive service, wonderful flavors and solid prices. Note - there are very few tables in this amazingrestaurant - get reservations! Read more
We weren?t aware we needed reservations when we found the place on google. Lucked out on our last day here and called when they... had just had a cancellation! It was by far the best fondue I?ve had, and the beer was amazing. It?s so worth the wait of an openreservation. The service was also amazing! Read more
The food is above good but below great for the price. We were a party of 4 and our tab was over $500. Be aware any food... suggestions come with a charge and you will have a surprise at the bill. I love fondue, but not at those prices. Plus side, theowner was a hoot and was entertaining. Read more
