Be sure to book ahead - it was at capacity on Sat night. Though fondue is traditionally a main course, we shared it as a starter and it was the best I've had.

Several people came by to ensure we were enjoying our meal, which was very nice. I would definitely go back.

I was recommended to visit this restaurant for traditional Swiss cuisine by a few locals. My friend…read moreand I came here for lunch. The place is located in the heart of Basel, right on one of the main promenades, so it was quite busy that day, mostly with tourists. The restaurant has a big indoor area, plus outdoor seating. We decided to sit inside to enjoy its classic Swiss design and cozy vibe. You can sense the historic charm in the atmosphere, but everything inside was still well maintained and spotlessly clean. Our waiter was very nice and helpful - he gave us tips about Swiss food and recommended a couple of dishes from the menu. The menu, by the way, wasn't very big, and it focused on traditional Swiss classics. We decided to share two dishes: Wienerschnitzel and Cheese Fondue (Käsefondue). The food came out quickly, within about 15 minutes. The pork schnitzel was flavorful and tender, with a perfectly enjoyable texture. We chose French fries as the side, and they were cooked really well. But the star of our lunch was definitely the Cheese Fondue - absolutely delicious! The cheese they used was incredibly rich and flavorful, and the fresh bread served with it was also tasty. Dipping the bread into the melted cheese made it a truly delightful experience. Both dishes were generous in size and more than enough for two people. The only negative about this restaurant is the prices, which are extremely high. The Cheese Fondue cost 38 CHF (about $48) PER PERSON, and the Wienerschnitzel was 40 CHF (about $50). Even though the food was excellent, I found these prices far too steep. The soft drinks we ordered were also expensive - 6 CHF ($8) for a cup of black tea or a Diet Coke. I'm from Miami, where restaurants are pricey too, but not this expensive, so even I was shocked when we got the final bill. Finalizing my review, I can say that I loved every part of my experience at the restaurant except the prices. It's definitely not a place I could afford to eat at every day (like I do in many restaurants in Miami, since I don't cook), but I still recommend checking this restaurant at least once for the experience - to try truly delicious Swiss food. Trust me and order the Cheese Fondue for sure!

We opted for the cheese fondue, which includes choice of salad or dried meat and cheese starter, six different fondue choices, and three dessert options. Oh and for 65 CHF, it's all you can eat fondue! There is also the option to have fondue "Chinoise," which is like the Swiss version of shabu shabu. We had one each of the appetizers, and both were good. The salad tasted very fresh with a light dressing, and the variety of dried meats was delicious though very filling. Consider this if you want to save room for cheese. We had the traditional fondue, which was simply delicious. What differentiated this fondue for me was the bread. Whereas many places have good cheese -- as long as you use high quality cheese, there's not a lot of magic to the prep -- Baracca had really nice bread, with a crunchy crust and spongy interior that was perfect for dipping in cheese. The cheese was also perfectly heated and stayed hot (almost too hot) until the pot was finished. While we were already pretty stuffed, we received a recommendation to try the chili fondue. This was also delicious, and a nice spin on the traditional. We were really full by the time dessert came around, but soldiered on and tried the meringue option and the chocolate cake. These were also in keeping with everything else served and delicious, though we weren't able to finish either. The ambiance here is definitely evocative of a Swiss chalet, though a minor complaint would be that it gets very warm inside, especially as we sat near the fireplace. I look forward to returning, though will definitely dress more in layers next time. Service is excellent: friendly and efficient. Baracca is a great place to enjoy delicious cheese fondue without having to head to the mountains.

Which was a good thing, since they had to turn away several guests that night. Our English Bulldog was welcome here as well, which was very nice of them. The menu in this Michelin restaurant is compact, but has something for every taste. It's modern french cuisine I'd say. We ordered a glass of local Riesling with our starters. There was a complementary Amuse-Bouche. A kind of cream-puff, but savoury with a creamy, cheesy filling. A really tasty appetizer. For starters we chose the Galantine duck and foie gras and trout carpaccio. Both fantastic choices. Wonderful duck and foie gras (mi-cuit), matched the Riesling perfectly. And the trout (pink/orange) was better quality-wise than most salmon in any other restaurants we know. High quality, fresh, highly enjoyable. For the mains we ordered the Veal shank confit and the Milk-fed lamb shoulder. Both excellent dishes. A bottle of red with that . I know duck confit, but veal confit (72 hours) was new to me. What a tender, juicy piece of meat. Actually: Piece of art! And the sauce...heaven! Confit is something you need to try. And this place here would be perfect for that. But also the lamb was wonderful. Equally tender, very smooth and with a rich sauce. You wouldn't even know it's lamb taste-wise, it was just perfect. There wasn't any room for desserts after this rich meal. A really fantastic dinner in a wonderful restaurant with a classic and cosy setting. It was pretty packed, so the staff was pretty busy. But they were quick and attentive, just didn't really have time for a quick chat or so. Price-wise it was fair. Around 150 Euros for two glasses of white, a bottle of red, two starters and two mains. For this quality? I would actually even say more than fair. A great place.

Food: my girlfriend and i ordered the beer fondue. it wasnt a big portion but it was really one of the best fondues i had! the cool thing is instead of bread (which is sometimes dry) they gave us warm bretzels. really good! wish i could eat fondue only with bretzels! Service: they were nice. sometimes not very attentive but totally ok. Atmosphere: its not a special atmosphere. but the good thing is that you can even sit outside in a little alley if its nice weather. even at high temperatures it wont be too hot there. additionally in the inside the have a "zapfhahne" on a table where you can take infinite beer on self-service. and in the end they give you the bill of all the beer summed up, pretty cool! All together more likely a 3-stars place. but because of that awesome fondue and the delicious beer they offer i give it 4 stars!!
