Lovely lake view but mediocre service: Restaurant 45 Grill & Health @ Grand Hotel Suisse Majestic, Autograph Collection (8. May 2021)

What I watched the previous evening was the ‘live preparation’ of salad right at your table. And it was somehow appealing. So, I decided to have a prepared salad by the table and went for “tailor-made salad ‘Health'” (CHF 21.00) and I had selected “sucrine, grilled chicken breast, grilled avocado, goji berries, anchovies and olive oil from Spain & lemon”. The salad is prepared right in front of your eyes which is great to watch and somewhat entertaining.

The salad looks decent and it tastes good. I think my selection of ingredients wasn’t entirely optimal since the mixture of meat, berries, and fish (anchovies) was somewhat a bit uncommon. However, it was, all in all, still very enjoyable.

What I liked surprisingly much was the “beef bavette” (CHF 26.00) cooked to ‘medium temperature’ as requested. The meat was aromatic and had an intense flavor, being all in all, really delicious.

The “French fries with Parmesan cheese with black truffles” (CHF 8.00) on the other hand were quite disappointing as the fries were not crispy at all but rather stroppy. And frankly, if the fries are stroppy, they are not really that enjoyable. So, while they looked promising, they were a disappointment.

On the other hand, the “artichoke and goat cheese au gratin” (CHF 8.00) and the “Sauce Béarnaise” were both delicious! However, if I have to pay for a tiny piece of artichoke with some goat cheese CHF 8.00, it feels like a major rip-off – despite the taste.

While this day I was able to score a table on the balcony which was amazing in terms of view and seeing the sun go down, the service quality, unfortunately, went down. The waiter was, admittedly, incredibly busy, but the waiting time had increased substantially compared to the previous evening. Which was a bit of a disappointment. However, I can still recommend the Restaurant 45 Grill & Health! When booking a table, I would suggest to make it clear you want a table on the balcony.
