This place is directly from a scene of Heidi. Grazing cows, Heidi grandfather watching over them and a view of the Matterhorn to die for. Stopped here for a refreshment after walking from Zermatt, turned out to be their first day open for the summer season. Recommend the homemade ice cream, especially the cinnamon. The toilets are a real surprise.

Definitely eat here. Staff are fantastic- beautiful views. All the meals looked delicious. We had the soup and pork sausage with Rosti...amazing. Would go back to this restaurant if I'm ever in Zermatt again.

My husband and I discovered this restaurant while skiing past one day. We noticed a lively atmosphere with a packed deck. We stopped at the restaurant while on a hike on a gorgeous day. We were able to find a spot on one of the crowded decks, sharing a table with some very friendly Swiss patrons. We were blown away by how delicious the food was. Our meal at Blatten was the best on our week long trip. We had a lovely mushroom soup, topped with puff pastry, fresh green salad, and lamb wrapped in puff pastry. It was a gourmet meal on the side of a mountain. Not only was the food delicious but it was such a great atmosphere to take in the sites and meet some friendly people. Highly recommend a stop at Blatten if you are in Zermatt.

Yet again the food here is very good. Excellent is reserved by us for some of the greatest, and of course much more expensive, restaurants which we occasionally have the good fortune to visit. Were Tripadvisor to have a SUPERB category for those restaurants we would give Blatten an EXCELLENT on the strength of the fried strips of Calves Liver with vegetables (Kalbsleber Blatten) alone. The Asparagus Soup (Spargelcremesuppe) tasted of asparagus and was also very good. Unfortunately as is often the case we did not have room for what we know to be the very good desserts.

After a pleasant hour and twenty minute hike it was great to arrive and be seated over looking the ski slopes, 2 beers later and food ordered,, we admire the beautiful scenery and passing skiers and cable cars floating by..excellent starters of crime of asparagus soup and mushroom soup, followed by average beef stroganoff
, which I am sure would have tasted better if we hadn't indulged in the hearty starters..great service, great location...
