Swizz Restaurant & Wine Bar

We had a party here, and it was terrific. The management did everything possible to make the event run flawlessly, and as a result, everyone told us that they loved the food and the place, and asked how we had found it. The room is pretty and warm, with brick walls and a floor to ceiling set of shelves with wines, and the service attentive but unobstrusive. We had raclette, which was excellent, and chocolate fondue, both milk and dark, served with chunks of fresh fruit and, a bit oddly, marshmallows, for dipping. The cheese in the raclette was excellent, brought in from the region of Switzerland that makes it best. The Swiss wine was excellent: Hemingway was right! If you are up for simple but excellent Swiss food and wine, you've found it. Pros: food, ambience, service more

for me a good fondue is just cheese and wine cooked together, and then the sides (potatoes, cured ham ...). At Swizz, there is something in the fondue that should not be there (bad cheese? Flour maybe? Or some other starch ... ) ... as a result it will not be unforgettable. \r \r On the other hand, the staff was very friendly and place rather nice for Times Square (although a bit cramped). we were a group of 10 and the place is just perfect for groups. Pros: Friendly, nice for Times Square Cons: Average food more

I went to Swizz with my 14y daughter and her friend. We had a great time. The fondue was listed as an appetizer but it could be a meal. We had the chocolate fondue for dessert. Both were exquisite. The cheese was so good. It comes with bread cubes but we added sausage and broccoli. The dessert was wonderful. We ordered the large but didn't finish it. The wine selection was exceptional. Pros: different kind of dining experience Cons: there is not one Philadelphia more

My partner and I went to Swizz for our 5th Anniversary. We used to live in Switzerland and were craving a good fondue. Swizz definately provided the flavor. While there is only 1 fondue on the menu (it's moie-moie), it's quite good. Unfortunately, there wasn't even enough cheese in ours for us to get through all the bread they gave us. They also didn't scrape the cheese at the bottom (which is the best part and is always done in Swizterland.) But for an American experience, it was more than pleasant. The wine menu is also good, with a large selection for $25. We finished it all off with the Jacque Torres chocolate fondue which was equisite (though I'm still trying to figure out why a restaurant called Swizz would use american chocolate). All in all, I would definately recommend it, it was good food for a good price. Pros: Food, Prices Cons: Portion sizes more

You'd hope on Valentine's Day they'd have a few extra servers on hand - didn't get water for 20 minutes, first course for an hour after seated. Food was excellent though and (almost) worth the wait. Just wish the service had been up to par, as it really put a damper on the romance factor. Check it out, but not when you know it'll be busy! Pros: Fab fondue, decor Cons: slow service more

I just hosted a bridal shower for 14 ppl at Swizz--and it was perfect! We reserved the wine cave (a private party room) and it was the perfect setting for a small shower. Everyone loved the food (you must have the chocolate fondue) and the service was great. I would definitely go back there again. Pros: Food, Ambience more

Awesome place in every way. The service is flawless, the prices are decent, the scene is serene, the theme is unique, and the food is fabulous. The basement is a nice intimate area to dine and the music is decent. Anyone who is looking for something different should come here for the perfect date, the group outing, or the curious palette. Pros: Prices, Service, Decor Cons: Hidden more

Theres something for everyone on the menu, everything from a simple pasta to crazy swiss meals that ive never heard of. You cant go wrong because everything is good. Any bottle of wine is $22, red or white. Tips: request to site in the wine sellar, it is more secluded and ambience is much more romantic. Feel free to ask the staff any questions, because they are very helpful, everyone was extremely nice. very good place to take a girlfriend. our meal ended up being around $80 including an app 2 meals a bottle of wine and desert that we shared more

We dined here recently and had a fantastic evening! The staff were all friendly.....and knowlegable. The menu is different with cheese raclette, various fondues and has enough choice to satisfy everyone. One very interesting concept a ""wall of wine"" mostly California..some Swiss wines...all $22 a bottle and many names that you know, in addition to a regular list by the glass and bottle. I had venison with dumplings that was the best I have ever had...the others had salmon that was well prepared. Desert and Swiss coffee...a thank you from the chef...I could go on but it was great. Lots of people making their way to the wine bar downstairs. And yes we even got a tour of their wine cave that they apparently use for groups and special events. We dine out regularly....quality, good portions, friendly staff...what else could you want? Pros: Quality of food, Reasonable wine price, Great Service more

Both the Cheese and the Chocolate Fondue are the best around! They have a great wine list to compliment thier Swiss-American menu. I had the special (Venison) and it was fantastic! I try not to eat it often because if not cooked correctly, it can be ""gamey"" but this was very tender and juicy! Staff was amazing, the chef even came to ask how our meal was! Very Classy! Pros: Fondue, Wine List, Friendly Staff more
