Chez John The Roadhouse

Even though Montreaux is one of the most expensive cities we have ever visited anywhere in the world, our dinner at Chez John is HANDS DOWN the best dining value anywhere. There are plenty of reasons why the ratings for this restaurant are so consistently high. For us…the two big standouts were the quality of the cuts of beef we ordered, and surprisingly (for us) the bottle of John’s “Red” we consumed with our meal. We stayed at the Fairmont which is known for great service. The food…not so much. We ate at other top rated choices like “Why Montreaux?” And realized the name of the restaurant might be ironic. It’s not that the food there was bad…it just made us miss the food and experience at Chez John a short walk away. We really enjoyed the quality of the food and the gracious attention of our hosts. Don’t skip this one.

John is very personable and truly cares about his customers. He took the time to chat with us about the food he serves and his background. We enjoyed our meal here. Tres delicieux!

Chez John has some of the best steaks in the region! The quality is very good and the way the steaks are served allow you to cook it exactly to your desire. John himself always comes to check that everything is 100% for you, which is always fun. My wife loves John’s tartare, but make sure to order it in advance. Whenever we have visitors (family, friends, work colleagues), we always bring them to Chez John for a unique and delicious dining experience. I cannot wait for my next visit!!

The food, hospitality and value for money...consistent each and every time...that's why we keep coming back to the best steakhouse in Montreux!!

We were greeted by John himself. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. The menu is refreshingly simple. Several sizes/types of Steak on a hot rock with 4 sauces, salad, and fries. We had Gelato for dessert. An excellent meal. Thank you.
