Alpine Gourmet Prato Borni

The food was generally tasty, but surprisingly far too salty and got simpler. We’ve visited this restaurant several times, but sadly, it feels like things are going downhill. There used to be a great sommelier and lovely staff, and the wine pairing was one of our favourite parts of the experience. We even bought many of the wines they recommended in the past — but not anymore. This time, the wine pairing just wasn’t impressive. As for the food, aside from being overly salty, it lacked any sense of care or motivation. The dishes looked a bit sad. Overall, the experience didn’t have the same spark it used to.

Great experience. They have 2 different menù, 6 courses each, we decided to combine them. Food was perfect. The service was great. The wines were awesome and well explained.

Wonderful evening enjoying a 6 course meal with perfectly paired wines by the sommelier. And they have an extraordinary wine list to say the least. Over 700 wines from the world over to pick from but I highly suggest that you try the Swiss wines as they will blow your mind. The chef and his team prepared two different gourmet menus to chose from. The staff was very friendly for a Michelin star restaurant which we welcomed. The sommelier took the time to explain each wine and why he paired it with the dish, making it very informative for wine lovers. Highly recommended. We'll be back.

It was a fantastic dining experience. We chose local Swiss 6 course menu and it wowed us. The perch was perfectly cooked, the layers of flavour was amazing. All the wait staffs are professional, they are specialising in service and wine. They service cheese all produced in Switzerland. Will be back again. Thanks everyone for this absolutely fantastic evening. A highlight in my Zermatt trip.

My Husband and I visited Restaurant Prato Borni on our honeymoon in Zermatt. Unfortunately I had broken my leg skiing during this trip and we were searching for nice experiences we could still enjoy together. We were so lucky to have the opportunity to visit Prato Borni. The dining room itself is stunning and we were lucky enough to be sat near the front window during and evening of beautiful snowfall. The staff could not have been more kind, helpful and accomodating of my slow mobility, even finding a little stool to rest my leg on. These things made our stay even more special. This is before even mentioning the food!! Wow, what an experience we were treated to by Chef Heinz Rufibach. We thorough enjoyed the Heimat menu which showcased the local Swiss cuisine and produce. Absolutely delicious. We had a magical evening dining at Prato Borni. After what had been a challenging time for us, this dinner was just spectacular. Would highly recommend due to quality of food and service.

A terrible restaurant! I have no idea how it could possibly receive a Michelin one-star rating! During the meal, flies were flying around and even landed directly on the food. After informing the staff, they said this was a “normal situation,” refused to take any action, and even told me to just accept it. I immediately paid the bill and left. What an awful, lousy restaurant.

My experience was rather disappointing. Most of the food was mediocre, with the exception of one outstanding meat dish unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to redeem the overall visit. A major issue was the lack of transparency around pricing. Appetizers and digestives were brought out without any explanation, making it seem like they were included. Only later did I find out they were quite expensive. Interestingly, the cheese selection which was also presented without clarification was included, and genuinely enjoyable. This inconsistency felt misleading and left a bad impression. That kind of upselling tactic is something I really don’t appreciate.

Exceptional and pro service and spotless dinning room with Swiss alpine feel. Unfortunately the food did not match that. Had the two tasting menus and each lacked luster. I took photos and attaching those to my review. Maybe the mains were ok; the rest of the meal was not. Disappointing experience and I don’t recommend. Zermatt might not be a gourmet dinning center and there are plenty of places that serve quality Swiss and international food with superb service.
