Partner took me here again for my birthday. This seems to be becoming a special occasion treat. Alphutte never fails. Leo always the attentive host, as are the rest of staff. Wines can look so pricey when you go to have a look but I said to my partner, pick a cheaper priced one as Alphutte won't have any bad... More

We hadn't made a reservation, and they were busy, but they found a table for us, and we're so glad they did. Good service, good food and good wine, and just a stroll away from our hotel - what more can you ask? Well, if the prices had been just a wee bit lower we might have eaten there more... More

Alphutte continues to provide value for money in a pleasant setting. Parking can be a bit of a hassle for lunch and the restaurant is not open on Saturday nights, but it's worth the effort to make a visit. Tables are not too close together, comfortable chairs. Wine selection is done from the shelving display which can be a nuisance... More

My friend and I eat out a lot, and this was one of the best all-around dining experiences we've both had in a long time. We went for her birthday, so we were prepared to pay a bit for the experience - and you WILL pay a bit here - but it was worth it. The decor and atmosphere make... More

A very nice restuarant, pity it is on a busy road. Our waiter was great, even a sense of humour. Food and wines delicious.

Having not been to this Restaurant for a few years I arrived with trepidation. Greetings and seating were professional and effortless. Menu presentation with specials clearly explained. Something to eat(bread) read (menu) and drink arrived within ten minutes of being seated. The food and service wasimmaculate. This restaurant is not cheap but if you want an experience dont miss going.... More

Nice food with reasonable sized serves. Nothing in our order that was super special. The food and wine are very, very overpriced for what it was.

Have been twice, the first time many years ago, so not sure what to expect this time. Great everything, food, wine, service. Could,t fault it. It is still a bit pricey but you do actually get what you pay for with fantastic beef and duck. Would definitely go again

Leo's Swiss cuisine always leaves me feeling great. I've been visiting the restaurant for special occasions for more than 20 years - and they've never let me down. The wine is pretty pricy, but there is an amazing selection. Everything else is pure gold. The service is top notch, attentive but not intrusive, and the quiet friendly ambience of the... More
