High quality fish at friendly atmosphere

Jul 2020 • none

The fish is freshly caught at their own pond, giving a very connaiseur vibe to their dishes. The picture menu has a cheapish vibe. Great selection of wine and desserts. A bit pricey for the food you get, but nonetheless a very pleasant dinner.

fresh fish from their own lake

Jun 2024 • couples

A piece of wilderness in the Berner Oberland, the lake Forellensee based in Zweisimmen. We visited this beautiful lake for dinner. The lake restaurant offers fresh fish from their own lake. Of course, there are also other dishes for those who don’t like fish. A delicious evening meal in good company, enjoying the please and the elements in nature.

Trust in Trout

Jul 2023 • family

Never would have expected something like this right off of the main road. Didn't catch the trout myself, but could have. It tasted great, and the presentation of all dishes was excellent. Perfect service. Worth a stop if you want really fresh trout: Blue or Meuniere.

Unexpected delight

Jul 2020 • couples

Situated not far off a main road, you'd be surprised how peaceful it is sitting on the terrace, overlooking the small lake. Friendly service, and good food - trout, of course. Very pleasant evening.

Casual relaxing restaurant by small lake

Aug 2019 • none

Trout is obviously their specialty, and the pink salmon tout filet was very good. My wife had a Egli fish dish, which was also very good. Meat dishes are available.There is an outside terrace facing the lake that is very pleasant to dine there on a nice day, which was what we did.

Fantastic restaurant, staff and owner

May 2019 • family

We arrived a bit too late and the owner of the restaurant kindly offered to drive us to the train station so that we didn’t have to eat in a hurry. The food is delicate and delicious. The staff is very friendly and polite. Most importantly, the furniture and the view are awesome. Definitely need to stop by and enjoy! 我們抵達時間較晚，老闆很熱心地願意用自己的車載我們去車站，讓我們可以有更多時間用餐，不用怕趕不上火車，太感謝了。老闆跟員工都很友善，食物擺盤很美又很好吃（可惜忘記拍照）風景又美，必去！

Great location, great food, nice people

Apr 2019 • family

We had planned a trip with the GoldenPass train from Montreux to Zweisimmen as a special family occasion. The first time, mid-March we had to cancel due to weather conditions. It was not problem with the restaurant at all to rearrange for another date. The place itself had attracted my attention when I was looking for a nice and cozy restaurant to eat. And, when we arrived walking from the station, alongside the river of Simmen, over the Camping place, passed the wonderful lake with extremely clear water and the trouts swimming in it, it clearly proved already here to have been the right choice. Arriving at the restaurant we had a wonderful table, and the waiter, Christoph, was very nice. The restaurant has, especially also for the summer, some very nice corners to enjoy a drink, something to eat or simply relax. Apart from some starters, a green salad and a hot pancake soup – both as such nothing special – we all had fish – trout naturally. The fish was fresh and very good – definitely worth going there just for this. The restaurant offers also other dishes, like a bucket of fried chicken or crayfish – latter one though, unfortunately, you have to order in advance. The place can also organize some nice festivities for bigger groups, like company events, weddings and more and they have some nice cabins, a houseboat and a small “villa” right at the lake which you can book to sleep. It really does look very nice and we will try this out over a prolonged weekend.

Great find for delicios food!

Aug 2018 • family

This restaurant is little hidden but easy accessable. The where in a TV show because of there excellent trouth as lunch or dinner direct from there pond with farm raised troughs. It's not getting fresher than that. Service is excellent and so is the food. Everything is prepped with love and a nice touch. You can even fish your own trout and then have it cleaned by the chef for your dinner. Rods and help from staff direct on site, and if the evening gets late there are cozy bungalow available to stay in, ideal for kids also with guarantee of a fresh catch. Overall a great experience and highly recommend!

Excellent Fish, Great service and ambiance, slightly questionable bill and irritating flies

Jun 2018 • friends

We went there based on the reviews by Tripadvisior and were certainly pleased with our overall experience. All the fish were fresh, yummy and nicely presented. The salads were tasty. The restaurant setting was quite cute on the edge of a tiny lake. Our server Tommy was extremely nice, cheerful and helpful. The flies were in abundance and were very irritating but I guess there was very little the restaurant could do about it. It seemed that the other customers who were probably locals were used to them and were not overly bothered by them. The reason I took away one star was because they charged us extra on a few things .. the fries came with a couple of dishes as sides but they still charged us $9 and $6 for 2 portions. They charged us $6 for a side salad which again was supposed to be a side dish. They charged us a bit extra for drinks and then charged us $4 each for 4 glasses of hot tap water at the end of our dinner. We were also charged for drinking tap water which came in the beginning of our dinner. In most of the restaurants in Switzerland they don’t charge you for tap water as long as you are ordering regular drinks. A bill which should have been around Fr 630 came to Fr 682. I questioned the server but did not get a satisfactory reply so I paid the 682 Fr as I did not want to spoil our otherwise wonderful dinner evening. All in all a good restaurant.

Wine by the pond - dazzling

Aug 2017 • friends

This is a peaceful, quaint, and beautiful oasis for an indoor or outdoor gathering. 3 of us went here after a long, long, amazing hike to Seebergsee (which I'll review later) just to have a glass of wine. The waitresses all were so nice and endearing. The wine arrived in a type of thick plastic clear bag filled with icey water. The white wine was amazing. I can't remember the name but there was a large "T" like corkscrew on the label and it was called "petite" something. DELICIOUS. So we were outdoors in a cozy place with the view of a small bridge and a pond. I felt like we were dropped into a movie set. Perfect. And the prices seemed very good $30 for half bottle. BRING CASH - they don't accept credit cards.

Super delicious food in a cozy and very creative furnished place

Dec 2016 • family

My family and me came here spontaneously to have some dinner. We were amazed by the big amount of food on each dish as well as the friendly staff. The Forellenburger tasted delicous and was complemented by a mixed salad as well as some crispy chips. I can highly recommend this place to anyone, if in family or single, to visit this place. Best, Patrick

Highly recomended

Aug 2016 • none

Beautiful place, good fishing, delicious trout, friendly staff and good price. I highly recommend this place. I traveled about 2 and a half hours total from Zurich and it was totally worth it.
