The story
Le Restaurant is the grand dame of St. Moritz, a dining room where the Alps and the lake seem to float just beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows. Set within the legendary Badrutt’s Palace Hotel, it offers a refined, classic European experience anchored by one of the most memorable breakfasts in the Swiss Alps.
The morning meal here is a deliberate affair. Live harp music accompanies a lavish breakfast buffet, transforming the first meal of the day into something transcendent. The view across the frozen lake to the snow-dusted peaks is as much a part of the experience as the food itself. During the high seasons, the restaurant also opens for sumptuous dinners, serving French-influenced cuisine in a setting of quiet opulence.
The grand dining room, with its timeless elegance, is also available for private dinners, galas, and cultural events, complete with a dedicated private server. This versatility—from a public breakfast of rare beauty to an exclusive evening gathering—makes Le Restaurant a cornerstone of the St. Moritz social scene.
The restaurant’s commitment to quality has earned it the Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence, a recognition that speaks to its carefully curated wine program. It is a place that balances the formality of a grand hotel with the genuine warmth of a welcome that has been extended for over a century.
