Reviews
Five of us reserved the Raclette Experience in advance so they were seated together around the broiling/warming mechanism on one side of the table. The remaining 6 just ordered other dishes from the menu.
First, cocktails. Three of us had the Mafioso, which is a Mezcal and Aperol cocktail, served with a large square ice cube to keep from watering down the drink. We all had a second one of these, since it was excellent!
Appetizers. We had two orders of the Roasted Brussels Sprouts which is prepared with bacon, onions, Raclette cheese, and an egg on top! It was phenomenal! And some of us who are new to Raclette got to try some! Highly recommend. One of us had the butternut squash soup, which she said was very good. We also had a cheese and charcuterie board for the group to nosh on, which also came with little cornichon pickles.
Main dishes. I ordered the Veal Zurich, which was very good. I’ve never had a potato rosti before, and it’s like a well done potato hash brown as a crust with a mashed potato consistency inside…very tasty and the perfect complement to a veal and mushroom “stew.” I also saw red cabbage as a side with other main dishes, so I asked for a side of it myself because I just love it and never see it at restaurants. It was prepared with a cinnamon flavoring so it was more sweet than vinegar tart like other preparations. Our vegetarian/vegan friend had the Roasted Butternut Squash, which she said was very good and she appreciated the addition of quinoa for extra protein to feel satiated.
The Raclette experience came with a literal cloth sack of potatoes (to keep them warm), pickles, and pearl onions. Plentiful amount of Raclette cheese slices, but we asked for additional “broiling scoops” (they remind me of little metal dust pans! I have no idea what they’re actually called) because it does take time to broil the cheese to perfection and then in two bites you’re ready for more. So it was good for each person to have multiple pans going at once.
We ordered a bottle of wine for the table, and I had the Tawny Port as an aperitif. We skipped dessert (only because we had birthday cake waiting back at our house). But there were several options on the menu that were calling to me…next time!
Service was excellent and our entire group really enjoyed their meal no matter what they ordered. Thank you, Stable, for an excellent evening celebrating our friend!
Stable is a family favorite! Every course they serve, we love! This time, we did their New Years Day brunch & everything was absolutely divine per usual. I got the Two Eggs Any Style w/ the perfectly crunchy & flavorful Potato Rösti, Nürnberger Sausage & a Butter Croissant. My husband got their Bratswurst Rösti & we shared the Cafè Complet, which is a delicious charcuterie spread that consists of Italian Speck (my fav!!!), Air Dried Beef, Landjäger Tête de Moine, Weekly Cheese Pick, Wurzel Bread, Butter and Jam. Oh, and can’t forget the silky, soothing hot chocolate with extra smooth creamy (housemade, btw) whipped cream that I dipped my crossiant in. You gotta do yourself a favor & try the Schoggi Twist with their Toblerone Berliner that just melts in your mouth.
It’s got tons of Swiss ambiance and flavor, and they deliver on that 100% in their cuisine. I highly recommend the lamb shank and the cocktails
The owners are often there working in person and are great people. The waitstaff are all excellent and service is always good. For larger parties, the themed “chalet” rooms in the back are very fun and are almost like being inside a ski resort in Switzerland.
Perhaps most importantly, this restaurant is great value, especially for the excellent food and service. Brunch for 5-6 people is often something like $30 each, even with drinks, tax, and tip. I would recommend getting a reservation since this restaurant is quite popular, but it’s worth it. Truly an excellent restaurant.
In summary, I love this place. Can’t recommend Stable highly enough.
Decided to give it another try from a suggestion from the nudge for their hot chocolate and glad we came in – it’s so cute for the holidays! There’s also a whole back area I didn’t know existed. Definitely a niche vibe but I might give it another try for dinner after this experience!
Original review in 2022 – 3 stars
Great service and food is pretty good. The fondue is tasty but only comes with bread – getting other sides is extra (and you can’t get a mix of them – like a side of a bowl of potatoes or a bowl of apples or a bowl of pickles) and would have liked more variety. We purchased some extra – the apples and potatoes – the potatoes were a little hard and completely flavorless (needed some salt in my opinion) – still tasted too plain even in the cheese. The table is a little small to not feel cramped. Overall, it was a good experience but we probably won’t go back. For dinner in the $$$ range, I would expect to leave with a fully satisfied belly!
