Located high in Gstaad, La Bagatelle is renowned for its stunning mountain views and spacious terrace. Many reviewers praise the efficient service, extensive wine list, and refined French cuisine, including hunting dishes and seafood. However, some guests found the food mediocre, lacking creativity or taste, with issues regarding meal pacing.

This stylish restaurant brings a modern and cosmopolitan take on Japanese cuisine, serving up sushi, sashimi and rolls, as well as Wagyu beef and chicken teriyaki.
