Reviews The Walliser Stube

Came on a Thursday evening around 6pm in April (non peak szn) and they do not take reservations unless you are staying at the Fairmont. There were plenty of tables and we got seated by one of the large windows facing the mountain (we were lucky and also it was quiet in general). I could imagine this place gets quite a bit busier during peak szn. Definitely get the Prix fix menu if you're coming with 2 people and want to eat their cheese fondue. I saw a table order the meat fondue and it looked ok, but definitely not as good as the cheese fondue that came with the fixed menu. And the cheese fondue "main" didn't seem like a worthwhile endeavour. For 2 with the fixed menu, you share one pot of fondue and it is more than enough! The fondue cheese base is the same regardless of which option you choose, and the only diff is the garnish... So if you choose the truffle one, you're paying a few more bucks for some truffle shavings. The server was really nice and gave us a few extra pretzel rolls as she recommended we dip it in the cheese. She was spot on. Dipping the chunky pretzel rolls in the cheese was decadent heaven! After finishing the fondue, wife and I were already quite full! The tenderloin steak that was served afterwards was perfectly cooked to our liking and very well flavoured. The nice part was they also give a large bowl of vegetables to share. A very nice touch to keep things a little healthier! Lastly, we got the chocolate fondue for dessert (1 to share between 2 pple). We got the dark chocolate as we figured what you dip will already be sweet. We were spot on. They gave a few small cakes, some strawberries, and my wife's fav, a few pieces of homemade marshmallows. Overall, everything was lots of fun, delicious, and enjoyable! I think the fixed menu was about $95 per person, but I felt it was worth it given how much food you get and what a nice experience it is. Cheers.

We were really lucky to get a table in front of the large window with a lakeview. Concierge helped make our dinner reservation when we checked-in. Our waiter provided excellent service. I’m not a connoisseur of German/Swiss dishes but I would say it’s the finest fondue and schnitzel that I’ve had in Canada. Overall, wonderful guest experience. I’m glad we tried Walliser Stube.

We really had a great experience here despite the restaurant trying to bump us off of their reservation list without telling us - our waiter, Asher, really blew our minds - so professional and friendly, so attentive. The restaurant should be proud to employ him. Two of our party had the three course special, and the rest of the party had the salmon appetizer (meh), the elk carpaccio (excellent), and the chicken (excellent - so flavorful). Best fondue I've ever had, such a nice balance of the right flavors.

This is THE MUST do at The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise. The Chateau Experience was the best meal of a lifetime. We booked early (opening at 5:30) to ensure we had the best table in the house. The meal and the staff outshined the view. Asher was our waiter. He recommended the wine pairing that went with the meal. It was incredible. If we had eaten here the first night we would never have sinned in any of the other Restaurants here. Again. - Asher. Fir waiter. Arrive early and enjoy!!
