It was amazing to sit down in front of the house to have a beer and enjoy the calmness and the great view. We then decided to check in when we got 2 rooms instead of one what was very convenient as we were a group of six. The shower unfortunately cost money but I guess that's needed for such a place in the mountains. We then went for dinner and enjoyed a Fantastic side salad and a massive rösti. Generally satisfied we caught some sleep before enjoying a decent breakfast and hiking back down to civilization. I can really recommend this place, especially because of the friendly hosts that made us feel very welcome!!!

Restaurant Gaden is situated in mountainous Unterwasser. I came here on two occasions: first for a…read morewedding reception and again for regular dinner with family and friends. Atmosphere: You can't ask for better views outside of the restaurant. It is situated on a sloping hill, so you get an idyllic scene of the valley from the outside of the restaurant. Inside, the windows are on the small side, so the outstanding views are lost. The restaurant has two floors; the downstairs area looks very posh with soft lighting and the upstairs has more of a barn decor, which is a little outdated. The tables are spaced out well and decorated simply and nicely with linen tablecloths. Staff: For both the wedding and the second dinner, my staff were attentive and excellent. Seldom was there an empty glass or lull in empty plates being cleared and new food arriving. For our second dinner, we had to split a bill across several people, but the woman serving our table was very efficient in splitting up the bill. Overall, the staff were a delight. Food and Drinks: Along with the view, the food is the reason to visit Restaurant Gaden. For the second meal, I had the pumpkin soup, which was balanced and good, and a simple garden salad with dressing on the side. The salad lettuces were crisp and vibrant - very refreshing. What was outstanding was the hay soup. My table was really curious what this soup would entail, so we shared a bowl of the soup. It was a creamy homogeneous soup with hints of earthiness from the hay. I loved this soup - from its presentation on a bed of hay to the actual flavor. I also got to taste my friend's platter of venison sausage and roesti. The roesti was great, but the venison sausage was very salty. It would be have been better if it was shared between two people with an additional salad on the side. Conclusion: If you are traveling in this area, this restaurant would be a great place to visit - especially after you have taken a long hike in the area. There is a cool hiking trail that includes musical instrument installations. I recommend doing that tour and then stopping here for a nice dinner.
