About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
Named one of 20 Best New Restaurants in America for 2024 By Bon Appetit!

In a distant European city, Fabian and Miriam vanished into the Alps, trading their city lives for mountain solitude. Once busy young professionals, their days were consumed by demanding careers, their rare weekends cherished for dining out and dancing, occasionally venturing into the mountains.

But destiny intervened when Miriam inherited her grandfather's Alpine hut, nestled amidst the rustic charms of the mountains. They cut ties with the city, forsaking it for good. Days were spent farming, foraging, crafting cheese, and making wine. Nights brought cooking, baking, wine-drinking, and stargazing.

Friends from the city visited, but Fabian and Miriam never looked back. They were drawn deeper into the mountains, caught in the Alpenrausch's dual meaning—the exhilaration of mountain air and the intoxication of good company, fine wine, and schnapps.

Come experience Alpenrausch!

    This is a unique setting and pleasant, cozy and can get loud, but the service is great and the food is fantastic. We were able to talk to our guests without having to repeat too often. All of the food was beautifully served and tasted fabulous. The fondue was exquisite, the venison very special and nice, reminded me of a small cozy restaurant I ate at in Geneva. The server was very helpful and helped us pick the perfect wine. The cocktails were wonderful and the alcohol free drink one of us ordered had a nice flavor.

    Nice spot. Cozy with good service and a unique menu. My dinner date was hard of hearing. The staff tended to our need for a quieter experience by quickly turning the music down in our area which we really appreciated. Thanks again!

    Love the alpine chalet decor and cozy vibe, and the food is sooo good! The service is always spot on, and it’s so nice to have a different restaurant experience that isn’t pasta, pizza, or asian in the neighborhood. Excellent authentic German cuisine with some modern vibes.

    This place is special. The food, service and ambience are superb. My parents are not people who dine out regularly and they were impressed since I took them for lunch as their holiday gift. We look forward to returning.
