Guter Service, freundliches Personal, originelle Salate, sehr feines Käsefondue, top div. Brote und Morzarellaeis mit Fenchel und Erdbeerencreme, gelungener Abend, merci

Cuisine très créative. Un régal. Bravo

Wir waren 10 Personen und alle waren sehr zufrieden mit dem feinen Essen, der Weinempfehlung und dem Service. Es war ein toller Abend. Nicht ganz billig, aber dafür war alles perfekt. Alle haben ihr Essen zur gleichen Zeit bekommen, obwohl ganz verschiedene Speisen gewählt wurden. Wir werden sicher wiederkommen.

The popular city restaurant with Mediterranean flair - uncomplicated, warm and full of flavour. In summer, the charming Ringgi-Pärkli invites you to linger in the open air, ideal for an aperitif or a small delicacy from our afternoon menu. In the cooler months of the year, from September to March, we serve our legendary moules et frites. A place for enjoyment - at any time of the day or year. We look forward to your visit. Sincerely, your Ringgi team!

Located in La Tour-de-Peilz , between Montreux and Vevey , Racine is more than just a restaurant – it’s a return to the essential. Here, every plate tells a story of land, season, and craftsmanship. Led by chef Jérémie Cordier , Racine is a place where nature, cuisine, and commitment come together in harmony. Nestled between a lush vegetable garden and a panoramic view of Lake Geneva , our kitchen is rooted in the rhythms of our territory. A large part of our herbs and vegetables come straight from the garden just steps from your table. LA TABLE – A refined culinary experience by Lake Geneva Open Tuesday to Saturday, evenings only La Table offers a deep dive into local, seasonal fine dining. Our tasting menu (5 or 7 courses) is ever-changing, shaped by the day’s harvests and the chef’s inspiration. No fixed menu, no pre-written promises – just pure creativity and spontaneity, grounded in what nature and our local partners have to offer. Everything we serve is sourced within a 70-kilometer radius of the restaurant – vegetables from our garden, herbs picked at the last moment, cheese from nearby farms, fish from the lake, and meat from trusted local producers. More than a meal, La Table is a gastronomic experience in the Swiss Riviera , celebrating the deep connection between food and land. Last orders at 8:30 PM. We are happy to accommodate allergies, intolerances, or dietary preferences. LIGOTS – A relaxed and local food experience The casual side of Racine Ligots is our more informal, convivial concept. The name refers to an “assemblage” – a collection of simple, raw elements brought together with care and purpose. This is the spirit of Ligots: a selection of small plates meant to be shared, combined, and enjoyed together. Here, the mood is relaxed, but the values remain the same: 100% local ingredients , all sourced from within our region. It’s a farm-to-table experience , with an open, spontaneous approach. A unique setting between garden and lake At Racine, the setting is part of the experience: A terrace with a breathtaking view of Lake Geneva , A productive, thriving garden , And a calm, natural atmosphere right in the heart of the Vaud Riviera . Whether you're looking for a romantic dinner in Montreux , a gourmet discovery near Vevey , or simply a moment of connection with nature and flavor – Racine welcomes you. Two dining experiences. One philosophy: authenticity, locality, and respect for the living. Whether you choose La Table or Ligots, everything begins at the root.
