Azalee - Saanenmöser

We had difficulty finding a restaurant with a free table on Wednesday night in Schonried (a number of them close to Wednesday). We were glad that Azalee offered us a table, but we had to order the grill restaurant that works next door, which was good at us. The restaurant was very quiet and the staff was very friendly, but the time it needed to get our food was not acceptable. We arrived at 8 a.m. and our food came at 9.30 a.m.... and there was no difficult order (Burger, Pizza and Fondue). Even then my chips came 10 minutes after the burger. The restaurant was quiet, but it was clear that the staff obviously had difficulties to cope with. I wasn't even asked if I wanted another drink. I assume that this is not a joint event, but it was a shame that we were not offered any excuse or reason for the bad service.

Although we had a confirmation for a table at the bottom of the grill, it was closed, so we sat at the azalee. Immediately we were offered to get the menus from the grill, which was very attentive. Very nice table, the service was impeccable. Our chateaubriand was delicious, my risotto and that must be mentioned because my previous experiences were not the same with regard to this risotto. Thank you for this beautiful evening in this cozy environment!

This is a traditional restaurant run by the lovely and welcoming Von Siebenthal family. The ambiance is very nice and warm. The restaurant is located in a beautiful chalet, with a more sophisticated, yet traditional atmosphere. The kitchen, run by Michel Von Siebenthal, is simply amazing. He proposes a very fresh and creative cuisine, perfectly mixing local ingredients and culinary with a modern, international touch. The result is a perfect balance between tradition and modernity, taste and subtleness. His wife Carole and staff, which incude the daughters, will warmly host you, providing an excellent and friendly service. A genuine address in the region.

The food and wine selection as well as the service and atmosphere are just the perfect combination.Too long to describe, just try it and you will understand what is a great experience. Keep it up Azalea , we will be returning soon.

This restaurant, on the road to Gstaad, is an excellent choice for dining served in a gracious style while overlooking the beautiful Alps. We enjoyed the best entrecôte beef and vegetables, with a good selection of wines for the glass (Hostess even opened a bottle not on the list for us to enjoy. A “big” steak was enough for us to spile. Prices are appropriate for quality, ambience and service. The hotel is also comfortable.
