"I was about to put a review about how rude were both the owner and his partner that I bumped into the review of another customer that I will copy below. It fully expresses my feelings. The only difference with it is that we went for lunch and they went for dinner. The arrogance of the owners was incredible: As usual, our family decided to have dinner at the Sonnenhof in August. We booked our table a few days in advance and arrived promptly at 7:30pm. To our great surprise, the restaurant terrace was packed full with many extra tables improvised left and right. It took the waitress 20 minutes to come to our table. While the first course arrived within 40 minutes, the main course was taking forever. When we eventually complained at 9:30pm, the spouse of the owner gave us an arrogant answer that they were full and had over 100 servings etc. We were somewhat surprised by the tone, when a simple short apology would have been sufficient, but that was too much too ask. Later, when we paid our bill, we tried to explain again that the service was slow, we were told that “our guests accept this”. Some 30 minutes later, around 22:30, the restaurant owner called us. Hoping that finally he found some common sense, he continued his wife‘s arrogant attitude and again was not able to apologise for the quality of the service, epitomizing the arrogance of this establishment. This is the last time we will be visiting this restaurant after some 30 years. Some people wonder if the Saanenland has lost its soul, well it looks like the Sonnenhof has . Their success made them lose sight of the importance of being kind to clients. I don 't think they will change their attitude as long as their restaurant will be full. That 's a pity."

"Zum 90. Geburtstag meiner Oma sind wir mit dem Golden Pass Panoramic Zug von Montreux nach Gstaad gereist.Bei unserer Ankunft im Restaurant wurden wir bereits vom Personal erwartet und sehr freundlich empfangen. Nachdem wir zu unserem schön dekorierten Tisch geführt wurden, wurden wir bereits gefragt, ob wir gerne mit einem Apero starten würden. Als Walliserinnen ist dies natürlich ein Muss. Die Speisekarte hatte für jeden Geschmack etwas zu bieten. Seis für Veggis, die Fleisch- und oder Fischliebhaber und für den grossen und den kleinen Hunger. Zur Vorspeise haben wir uns 2x für die Tagessuppe und 2x für die Gyozas (japanische Teigtaschen) entschieden. Beide Gerichte schmeckten fantastisch. Zur Hauptspeise gab es 2x die heimischen Kalbsribs mit leckeren Süsskartoffelfries und einem Saisonsalat sowie das doppelte Saanenländer Kalbskotelette mit Pommes, unserer Beilage nach Wahl, Saisongemüse und einer sehr schmackhaften Sauce Hollandaise. Die Hauptgerichte schmeckten fabelhaft und man merkte, dass alles frisch und mit viel Liebe zubereitet wurde. Zum Dessert gab es eine Auswahl an Leckereien, welche wir leider nicht verkosten konnten, da wir bereits mit der Vor- Hauptspeise genug hatten. Zum krönenden Abschluss gab es dann noch ein Verdauungskaffee. Alles in allem war perfekt und wir bedanken uns bei dem tollen, sympathischen und freundlichen Personal für unseren Aufenthalt im Restaurant."

"I understand no restaurant owners like to receive a terrible review, so I will give 5 star, but will state the reality. I have no idea how this restaurant has received excellent reviews!We were visiting Gstaad for an events, walked down the town, not much was open it was a toss between Pizza or Indian checked the reviews, thought let’s give it a go how much can we go wrong with curry, rice and NaanSeriously this is a big let down and gives a wrong impression for an Indian restaurantBooked a table by calling, when arrived they didn’t know about the bookingAsis sorted a table out, ordered a beer and mango lassi, mango lassi was forgotten had to remind for it, when it came no apologies and it was warm.Asked for two popadoms got four pies and some kind of sauce and two bits of pickle, see attached picture, asked for mixed chick and prawn curry which had to be asked if can be made. Asked for garlic naan and plain Naan see attached pictureThe owners need to realise they are sitting on a gold mine here, surrounded by very wealthy community and tourists with deeper pockets. Seriously you need to get out a bit more and learn from other restaurants, give the guests a real 5* service all the way from entry, menu, communication, ambience, quality of food and drinks etc... You need to do a reality check of your business, who your customers, are you really delivering on their expectations.Study the quadrant What do others know you Don’t? Hope you take some of the above in your strategy going forward.Best wishes"
