Walliserkanne - Zermatt

Refined cuisine. Warm environment. Impeccable service.

Great food, nice service, great ambience! Again and again....

Nice to be on the terrace, it's heated with small braziers

Delicious food and courteous servers, Walliserkanne serves a mixture of Swiss and Italian food. We particularly enjoyed the chicken breast and fries. The food portion is huge. You may opt for a smaller serving (but this is only available on the pizzas our chicken breast and pasta were not allowed to be downsized). Each person on the table needs to order one dish and one drink which eliminates sharing as an option. If you are not a big eater, the other restaurants in the vicinity allows sharing.

This is a restaurant to try while walking on the streets of Zermatt. Initially we were quite bummed with the rule of 1 main course dish per head. Generally, our kids cannot finish one whole meal. We were 2 adults and 2 kids under age 12. Anyway we sat to order and tried our best to order 1 dish per head. We were happy that the food was yum. We ordered a kid meal just because we had to. It was wasted and we took it home. The other dishes like sirloin steak, cheese fondue and spaghetti cream with egg and bacon were yummmy!!! Whatever was left, we took back with us as we do not like to waste food. They had shawls kept for use on the chairs outside due to the cold. This was a very unique concept and good thought we had never seen before and were quite impressed with it. I would've given a 5 star for the restaurant but I believe that their one meal per head rule either forces one to eat more than they can or forces one to waste food. Neither sits right with me.
