Open since 1985, our restaurant offers a Swiss and European cuisine which is very comforting, including our traditional raclette dish. Founded in the Swiss Alps, this typical dish is offered here with the same authenticity as where it came from. La raclette, which is also the name of the cheese used for this dish comes from the action of scraping the cheese melted by a heat source to your plate. So you can enjoy this dish already prepared for you in your plate or using our oven that allows you to heat and scrape the cheese at your table. Also, in the purest tradition, this dish is served with cold meats (ham and beef) which comes from the region of Grisons in Switzerland, our pickles and pickled onions and potatoes. The quality of ingredients and simplicity are all the charm of this traditional raclette.
Moreover, apart from our traditional raclette dish, we offer a variety of other delicious dishes that stem from a long tradition of Swiss and European cuisine, such as our fondue cheese, thinly sliced veal Zurich and other delights to discover...
La Raclette is described as a cozy, warm spot where the cheese is a highlight and portions are generous, with the service and atmosphere frequently praised. Many reviews note that the prices can feel high for what is offered, with extra charges for certain raclette options or supplements for more meat, and some mention a sparse vegetarian raclette option. The cheese quality and fondue are repeatedly praised, and the accompaniments such as charcuterie and potatoes are cited as strong points, with desserts like a chocolate dome receiving compliments. The service is often described as friendly, attentive, and efficient, though a few comments point to slower service when the venue is busy. BYOW is highlighted as a plus in several reviews, and the overall experience is seen as a good fit for date nights or groups, with many saying they would return despite price concerns.
J'ai choisi la goulash de boeuf. C'était très bon. Comme je n'aime pas gaspiller, j'ai mangé le morceau de viande au complet, mais j'aurais souhaité qu'il soit plus petit. Le saumon confit était exquis.
Raclette terre mer : Mauvaise qualité du boeuf, trop de porc. Le mer contient pour deux personnes, 2 pétoncles (une chaque) & 4 petite crevettes (deux chaque).

We loved our experience at La Raclette! It was our second time & we will definitely be coming back. Great ambiance, it was nice that the terasse was still open & had heating lamps & a cover. The food was amazing, best quality meats! Our server Mario presented the ingredients & how to use the pierrades so well. Great service

C'était une première visite & nous reviendrons. Le service est particulièrement appréciable.
Un tout petit bémol: la plaque. Avec 4 convives, la plaque perd de sa chaleur & certaines cuissons deviennent interminables. Il faudrait y remédier.
Nous sommes clients depuis des années & c'est toujours un plaisir d'aller à La Raclette. Nous n'avions jamais eu une facture à 100$ par personne au paravant disons que cela nous a très surpris.
A unique & very satisfying dining experience.
Our server Mario made it a delightful experience. He was knowledgeable, personable, engaging, all while being professional. It can be extremely difficult to balance all those element but he did it magnificently.
