Vieux Valais - Table reservation

We were very excited to dine at the restaurant after a days hike in the nearby mountains. Upon arrival we were not greeted but confronted by an extremely unpleasant staff member who despite the restaurant being completely empty with only one reservation note visible informed us that they cannot serve us as they are fully booked. Unfortunately I have a reason to suspect the denial of service was of xenophobic nature. I strongly discourage anyone to dine there.

Today us and a group of friends had a horrible experience at Au Vieux Valais. We were early at the restaurant because we were extremely happy to try Swiss cuisine. However, we were not made feel welcome and were discouraged to eat at the restaurant. We believe that we were dismissed from the restaurant because we approached the owner in English. The behavior of the owner felt xenophobic in nature and left us really confused and upset and of course, hungry!

We had a good lunch at this restaurant. Service was attentive and helpful in making recommendations. We had never had fondue and the service was helpful in guiding us in our meal. We were able to order a decent bottle of wine. The seating on the street was pleasant. The portion sizes were huge, and the fries were replenished when we had eaten all of the first serving. Relative to the cost of food in Switzerland, the pricing was good.

Really a fine place to eat. Nice staff and reception, excellent food and lovely decor. Highly recommended for meat lovers as well as tourists to get a taste of local food. Visited twice and both times my meat was excellent. Lovely wines as well. A little off the beaten path, but very worth your effort

Nice Swiss restaurant, traditional atmosphere, specialist for (meat) fondue with meat in a very good quality and nicely marinated.
