The story
Just outside Basel, in the quiet village of Oberwil, Restaurant Schlüssel by chef Tanja Grandits is a place that feels like a stylishly furnished living room. The atmosphere is intentionally warm and inviting – a true Wohlfühlort, or feel-good spot – where the focus is on beautifully prepared food.
Grandits’ cooking is international in spirit, with dishes that are expertly executed, vibrant, and full of freshness. The plates are colorful and lively, reflecting a kitchen that values both precision and natural flavors. This approach to modern international cuisine has earned the restaurant a Michelin Recommended distinction for 2026, a mark of its consistent quality.
The dining experience at Schlüssel is unhurried and refined, yet relaxed. Whether you visit for lunch or dinner, the setting – with outdoor seating in good weather and air conditioning for comfort – complements the food without pretension. It is fine dining that feels personal, not formal.
With its seamless blend of elegance and comfort, Schlüssel is a destination for those who appreciate thoughtful cooking in an atmosphere that feels like home – if home were exceptionally well designed and the cook a master of international flavors.
