Way over rated nice sunny deck Don't get stuck on one of the thin bench tables We were seated there and before our food arrived a few Regular 4 tops became available but they would not move us even thought the tables remained vacant at 3 pm read more

Very good experience! No disappointment.z Try the pastas and tagliatelle with goat cheese with caramelized pear was our favorite! No better place in Zermatt for sure! read more

My favorite restaurant in Zermat. It is oozing charm with a dramatic panorama of Matterhorn as well as plenty of arrangements of seating to lounge and enjoy the view. Reservations required in winter, whereas Summer is a lot more relaxed. read more

We hiked upto Chez Vrony from our hotel in Zermatt and were not disappointed by anything. The drinks, food, service and view were all well worth the hike. I have the Bloody Mary soup (without a shot of Vodka) and the Ravioli, both were fantastic. My husband had a burger that actually came with directions on how to eat it, as it was so big. It's a great place to visit! read more

I don't think there is a better on-mountain dining option in Zermatt. But that doesn't mean five stars by default: the food is good, but not consistently five-star good. Also, if you want to eat here, DEFINITELY make a reservation. Okay, to start with the high points: First and foremost, the Bloody Mary tomato soup is among the five greatest things I've ever eaten. Seriously. And I'm not normally the biggest fan of tomato soup. It's incredible, and that was BEFORE they came by and asked if they should add vodka to it (FYI, don't say "no" to that question, here or ever). Also notable was the service: not incredibly fast (though I'm from NYC, so ALL service feels slow to me outside The City), but extremely warm and friendly. Big plus to the experience. After the already-discussed soup, we had the veal, which was excellent, and the perch, which was good (but not excellent). A brownie-and-blackberry-mulled-wine-ice-cream dessert special was similarly good, but the brownie in particular was nothing to write home about (and let's be honest, you're in Zermatt, so you probably ARE writing postcards home). Overall, very good experience. Strongly recommend, and definitely worth the price. But not a steal (except that soup; oh God, that soup...). Finally, a warning that as of right now, Yelp has the location wrong for Chez Vrony. It is NOT in town; you have to take the "6" run from Sunnegga to Findeln to reach it. read more

Amazing atmosphere on the slopes of Zermatt. You either ski there or have to take a gondola there and hike in. Food was delicious and big portions! The kids hotdog was twice the normal size with fries on top. My daughter was jealous she didn't order that, but she is 16! I started with a small Bloody Mary Soup with a vodka shot in it. The small was more like a bowl of soup.. so when my veal mushroom Rotta came.. I barely had enough room in my stomach to finish., but it was delicious. Rotta is like American hash browns. My husband had foir Gras and then the Bouilibase soup; one daughter had a burger with yummy coleslaw on it and the other had beef short rib and mashed potato! 2 got dessert: Gingerbread cheesecake was to DIE FOR! And my daughter got the brownie: I did not taste that! Staff was very friendly and attentive read more

This place is pretty amazing. It appears to have been here forever and it is extra cozy. We stopped in for a late lunch. The girl and I shared a meat and cheese platter which was delicious (and huge). We barely had enough room for the soups to follow. She had the hay soup (don't hate, it was pretty good) and I had the Bloody Mary soup which is exactly what it sounds like, with spicy chorizo. Perfect after a day of riding. Some issues: There are ads for this place scattered about, but there is only one *one* sign directing you to this place. And it's about 100 yards from the restaurant. Take a lift/ski towards Sunnegga and ski down towards Findeln but make sure to stay to your left (there will be a fork in the run). Ski down to get out and take the short lift back to Sunnegga to get home. Worth the work. Be sure to make a reservation. read more

My wife kept telling me about this place. We knew that we needed to go here. But, a summer skiing injury to my leg made it look like we weren't going to be able to get up to Findeln to try Chez Vrony. Alas, my leg was feeling better late week and we found our way here for lunch. I'm glad we did. Let me say that the only thing better than trying this place on a beautiful summer afternoon would be skiing in to Chez Vrony during the season for après ski. It has such a great feel and the location is truly breathtaking (I hate to use that word because very few things are breathtaking, right?). But, wow, what a special location. Situated along a rural dirt road in the rustic and quaint hamlet of Findeln, and with only a few structures, you really have feeling of being in a rural Swiss village from hundreds of years ago. And, great Matterhorn views. We made reservations about an hour ahead of time and arrived there to find it pretty busy but not overwhelmed. I would guess it might be swamped in the winter. The menu is fairly small but it had a lot of great looking items on it. We decided to try and create a sampler for our table since it all looked so good. We had a single order of fondue, my wife got a salad with local cheese and I got the bloody mary soup with lamb andouille sausage (and, a splash of vodka). This was just plain excellent, well thought out food utilizing local ingredients along with some really great decisions made back in the kitchen. Service was great. Perhaps one of the nicest parts of the whole experience was the owner coming up to us as we were leaving and shaking our hands and thanking us for coming. He was genuinely happy to see us, thankful we came and wanted to make sure we enjoyed our stay. Outside, before we descended back into Zermatt, the kids got on the trampoline and bounced away while me and my wife relaxed on these incredible little wooden lounge seats with amazing Matterhorn views. Very nice. If you have the time and energy then hike to this very special place from the Winkelmatten area above Zermatt. The road to the right of the Winkelmatten playground (goes behind the church) takes you to the edge of town and on to the trail up the valley to Findeln. It's a two hour hike and another hour or a little less to get down but it's worth it. Another option is to take the funicular to Sunegga Paradise and walk down 15-20 minutes to it. Then, after dining walk back up to Sunegga or walk down the valley to Zermatt. I don't think you will be sorry. There are also several other nice restaurants in Findeln as well. read more

We were fortunate enough to host our wedding ceremony at the magical hillside restaurant Chez Vrony. The Staff and Chefs at Chez created an unreal experience that left all of our guests in awe. The host Vrony was very accommodating and made sure that all of our needs were met. Our guests loved the food and raved about the salads and charcuterie. The gradual walk down offers breathtaking views of the Alpes and Matterhorn. We were able to try some of their other dishes on a different day and we all raved at how amazing the food was. The burger was enormous and had wonderful flavor, the salad was very fresh with delicious goat cheese and the wild game meatloaf was perfectly cooked with wonderful seasoning. We cannot praise Chez Vrony enough for the quality of the food, staff and experience, all exceeded our expectations! read more

A magical place at 2100 metres altitudes, with stunning views of the Matterhorn, My wife and I and our kids think "Chez Vrony" is the best restaurant on Zermatt ski runs! Cuisine is excellent, made with fresh and organic products for the benefit of traditional recipes. Impeccable selected wine list. Impossible for us to resist of that fantastic terrace when skiing in Zermatt! We love to take time, and have good time there! read more

Location location location...? Fantastic chalet restaurant halfway down the blue Findeln run. Multi tiered chalet with large terrace and lounging areas, complete with blankets and sheepskins. Fantastic views of the Matterhorn. Timing is everything here, certainly in winter. If the sun drops below the mountains, it gets cold quickly - even when it's been a glorious sunny day. We stopped at about 3pm - people were leaving, because the sun was dipping. Only really had time for drinks and a fabulous piece of fruit tart, before we had to get our skis on in order to make it down to get the last chair lift back up the mountain just before 4pm. Michelin recommend but didn't have time to eat unfortunately but it is imperative you visit this place. A real gem. read more

Excellent. Not the easiest to find. We did not want to ski past it, so we would stop, look for signs (yes they are there) and ask people on the slope. But worth the effort. You take off your skis and walk the short path and stairs down to the wooden style chalet. We sat outside. They provide warm blankets. Amazing view of the Matterhorn. The staff was very attentive. Food was great. Its definitely worth a trip inside to look at the cozy environment. They have a small store on the 3rd floor. The only bummer was that it was very expensive. But on par with most of the restaurant we ate at. Our group had a smattering of fish and meat. Our kids loved the Rosti. It was not just the food. It was the work to get there, the isolation on the side of a mountain, the view of the Matterhorn, the inviting staff. Not to be missed !! read more

We've been coming to Zermatt since the early eighties and Chez Vrony has always been the culinary highlight of the trip. The tapas is excellent for sharing while the carpaccio and Bloody Mary soup are delicious starters. We had the veal with cream sauce and rosti as well as the lamb. Both were perfectly cooked. The apple "donuts" are lightly battered, deceptively simple and delicious. The decor which used to be quaint is now more modern Swiss. The service is friendly and decorous. read more

Amazing view of the Matterhorn and amazing food. We had the lamb, rosti and the pasta. They were all spectacular! We went around late March, so it was relatively warm on the mountain. Best dining experience I had in Switzerland and I would love to go back to Zermatt read more

top notch restaurant that is slopeside. great menu, presentation and a nice choice of wine. on nicer days having lunch on their outdoor deck is the way to go. read more

One of those places that pretends to be super fancy but the quality of the meal ultimately falls below par. Quite expensive but that's typical for zermatt really. Burger was served almost cold. Ran out of potato wedges so gave us crisps instead. Food served way too fast. Clearly more interested in getting customers through as quickly as possible to make money rather than delivering a quality experience. read more

The view, the food, the view......be ready to search for the restaurant if traveling by foot. It is worth the journey and most enjoyable.

Our friend recommended this place to us who has been to zermatt many times. Its easy to find if you drive down to Findeln. We were very lucky to get a seat because it seemed very busy even at 2pm! The service was really nice and attentive. The food came quicker than expected which didnt bother my hungry tummy. The food was excellent, i had one of the classics, the ravioli, it was delicious! After we had finished eating we layd back and enjoyed the sun shining in our faces :) read more

Gorgeous view, however food is just OK. Come here and sip on a hot drink and enjoy fruit of the forest outside, cuddled up in a hublot blanket. Confused waiters who are easily overwhelmed :/ read more
