    Food was really bad. The fish dish was the most expensive item on the menu, and I thought it would be better. But it was dry and chewy, the sauce was bland, and the fries were so over-cooked that they were all hollow inside. The salad was also very old with wilted leaves. I wouldn’t give any stars if it wasn’t because of the friendly waiters.

    Came here in the afternoon for a nice cocktail to enjoy in the sun - the service we had until that point in every other restaurant/bar was outstanding so we had high hopes but that unfortunately that didn’t last long. We were waiting outside for a table and after 15 minutes of waiting, we then had to sit ourself down. After a further 10 minutes, what looked like one of the managers came over to take our order but we had not received a menu - we asked for one and in turn, received a frustrated sigh whilst he went to get us the menu. We then waited a further 10 minutes for our order to be taken but no one was coming over so has to stand up and get the attention of the waiter. We then proceeded to get our drinks and enjoy the atmosphere and agreed we’d have another… both managers on duty continued to walk by us, ignoring us and only attending to those around us… we had been sat there for 30 minutes waiting to order another drink, trying to call out and just to be ignored at which point we decided to just ask for the bill as there clearly was no interest in serving us any more drinks. After a while longer, we managed to get the attention of the manager who served us our drinks and when asked for the bill, threw the card reader onto the table and proceeded to make us feel as though we were an inconvenience. After had paid, he just walked off in a huff and we left as soon as we could. The worst experience in my whole time in Geneva - will definitely NOT be going back there again.

    La Pomme d'Or is a legendary restaurant in my opinion. The food is consistently amazing and you can never go wrong with anything here. The ambiance inside is modern and fun. La Pomme d'Or is a brilliant place to go for drinks, mains or even just dessert. I enjoyed a typical Swiss dessert, meringue double cream Gruyère revisited, and it was very fine, fresh, and very "gourmet". Accompanied by an ideal hot chocolate on those cold days. What else? Excellent atmosphere and great service. To my surprise, the prices are rather correct compare to others here in Geneva, and that's what I'm looking for a good meal without breaking my wallet. Thanks you. Will surely be back.

    Terrible service, rude waiter. Bad attitude towards English speakers. I saw the waiter with curly hair put his finger into customers’ drink to take out the ice in front of their face (after the lady explicitly said she didn’t want ice). He could not remember what people ordered. I heard multiple people nearby complain of the poor quality of service. Worst place I have ever been in Genève. I would give zero star if the app allowed.

    We felt that it was extremely expensive. 10.5chf for a beer that you can buy for 3.7chf or 6chf for sparkling water.

    Horrible service. Seated and ignored for 30 minutes before deciding to leave. The head waiter was aware that we had not ordered, looked over at me, smiled and continued to play on his phone.

    Good location and food. Unfortunately only one waitperson for the entire terrace. Bring your patience and you will be okay.

    Very cute terrasse setting. Good variety and quality menu along with friendly staff. Price tends in the more expensive end but worth the stop if you’re in the area.

  • 4/5 Fadi H. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice to sit outside on a sunny day. Actually, 75% of the charm of the place is the setting. The food is ok, menu is limited, i find. Staff is friendly but always overwhelmed. Also the kitchen closes at 2.30pm for lunch, which is inconvenient.

    Landed there recently, on one if these beautiful last summer nights, The restaurant was busy mainly for drinks/aperitifs (a bit pricy overall but the daily dish is 'only' frs 28), hence I was not surpriced that we were among the rare tables dining there. As to my fondue here's a 'variety' I have not tasted ever: it was served not only with white bread but also... roasted potatoes! Positive outcome: happy to take these home with more take away from hubby's lamb dish rounding up 2 dinners for next day - a relief for the wallet!! I certainly recommend this place for proposed plats du jour between Tuesday-Friday !! Last but not least: service was attentive by young, cheerful team very familiar with many regular clients on that Saturday night.

    Lovely atmosphere. Very French- probably why some reviews say they are rude! Nice location. Coffee could kill a brown dog . Just as I like it!
