Le Deck Restaurant

I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the restaurant Le Deck at Hotel Baron Tavernier in Chexbres, Switzerland. A wonderful culinary experience in an exceptional setting! This restaurant, perched above the vineyards with breathtaking views of Lake Geneva and the French Alps, offers both refined cuisine and impeccable service. The staff was warm, attentive, and highly professional, making the experience even more enjoyable. Our meal began with beautifully fresh crab meat, delicately seasoned with citrus and light spices, highlighting an elegant play on textures. The fried quail that followed was outstanding, featuring a rich, well-balanced sauce that complemented the dish perfectly, accompanied by thoughtfully prepared sides. We also opted for the perch fillets from the lake. While the flavor was excellent, I found them slightly over-fried, and a simpler preparation might have better showcased their natural taste. That said, the dish was still enjoyable, especially with the deliciously grilled baby potatoes served alongside. Overall, a fantastic dining experience with stunning views and sophisticated flavors. A place well worth visiting for both the food and the ambiance!

Beautiful spot with an absolutely stunning view over Lake Geneva and the vineyards of Lavaux. That alone makes it worth the visit. Service is friendly and efficient, and the food is good with great presentation. You mostly come here for the view, but everything else holds up nicely too. Parking might be an issue so make sure you prepare in advance your visit. The Lavaux vineyards are part of the UNESCO World Heritage sites and rightfully so. I'd suggest you enjoy a glass of local Chasselas to make your experience authentic. Santé!

We came for drinks and enjoyed some finger food—calamari, hummus, and French fries—all very tasty. But the real highlight is the absolutely stunning view of the lake and mountains. A perfect spot to relax and take it all in!

Amazing food and service with the best view you could imagine. Perch fish was excellent - best I had in the area. Cheese plate also good. Desserts fantastic. Wine pairings were ok. Service was wonderful. Would definitely come back!!

I had an early lunch on the terrace of this upscale French restaurant a beautiful Wednesday in mid June of 2025. You have a rather limited choice of perfectly executed dishes including vegetarian options. There are some discrete attentions to details, like napkins with a buttonhole allowing you to protect your expensive Hermès tie if you would ever wear one these days. The wines by the glass are well chosen and include some unusual proposals like a Traminer from Javet & Javet on Mont Vully north of Lake Murten that also houses farms producing the black rice that was served with my char. A beurre blanc including trout and lump fish roe accompanied the fish. Our pleasant waiter tried to convince me I had herring roe but you don't try that trick with someone who has eaten fermented and fresh herring roe for many decades... Overall, a very pleasant meal with prices for food and wine on the high side. This is at least partly compensated by the magnificent view over the lake, probably the best you will find in any of the many restaurants on the northern shores of Lake Geneva.

Such a stunning spot, enjoying coffee with a breathtaking view of Lake Geneva 🩵

Restaurant is inside, it doesn’t give refreshing atmosphere, bar is better. Food is ok. Portions are very small. Staff is smiley and nice. Prices are weirdly high. View is very good. I suggest visiting to have a drink and finger foods in the bar, and enjoy the atmosphere. *~*~* Thank you for your comments 🙏

Nothing to offer (or should not offer) beside the beautiful scenery. Worst food in my life. My family almost got sick the moment we put the mullet in our mouths. Even the fish Gollum had would have been better. Even the guests from the next table were sniffing the dishes as if the fish tasted weird. Salad was okay but both the fish and the lamb dish were terrible. Servers did not even explain the food while serving most of the time. The scenery is amazing but even the music choice was inconsiderate and the speaker quality was bad. Not even to mention how overpriced it was. I had the signature menu. "Do not come" as Walter said to the guy who killed Hank.
