Enjoy Switzerland's national dish in a welcoming atmosphere

Fondue and Raclette Restaurant 

A Unique Culinary Experience

At Restaurant Zum Königstuhl, we serve traditional, authentic dishes in a stylish setting. Two culinary highlights that everyone should try at least once are the quintessential Swiss classics: cheese fondue and raclette.

Swiss Cheese Fondue


Swiss cheese fondue is a dish made with melted cheese that originated in French-speaking Switzerland, as well as in Piedmont and the Aosta Valley. Since the 1950s, cheese fondue has been Switzerland’s national dish, available in different variations depending on the region and therefore always full of surprises.


At Restaurant Zum Königsstuhl, the cheese fondue is freshly prepared using premium mountain cheese. Delicious accompaniments such as crispy bread, pickled vegetables, and tender potatoes complement this classic dish, which is traditionally served at the table in a sturdy ceramic pot. You’ll also find modern variations on our menu, enhanced with various types of cheese, aromatic truffles, or crispy bacon.

Swiss Raclette


Raclette is another true Swiss classic that originated in Valais, where centuries ago, the flavorful cheese was melted over an open fire and scraped from the wheel onto plates. Today, it’s one of Switzerland’s most popular dishes for social gatherings.


At Restaurant Zum Königsstuhl, you can enjoy raclette right at your table: using the tabletop grill, each guest melts the aromatic Valais cheese themselves and spreads it fresh and creamy from the hot pan onto their plate. We serve it with Gschwellti, crisp cornichons, and pickled pearl onions. Those who like variety can enhance their raclette with fine spices or savory accompaniments. This turns every gathering into a truly personal culinary experience.

Shared Delight

In addition to the fresh preparation and the use of high-quality cheese, the convivial atmosphere is an important aspect of fondue and raclette. In our fondue and raclette restaurant in the heart of Zurich, you can enjoy these classics in a warm, inviting atmosphere—whether in an intimate setting for two, with your closest family, or in a large group.


Whether it’s a birthday, family celebration, business dinner, or simply a chance to spend quality time together over delicious food, cheese fondue and raclette at Restaurant Zum Königstuhl are culinary highlights you definitely shouldn’t miss.
