I’d rate this a 3 ½ star restaurant. It’s kind of a touristy place where the waitresses dress up in Swiss garb, menu is heavily Swiss influenced, even printed in a colonial font. This translates to tourist prices. Every time we’ve dined here they were not busy. This is usually during lunch time rush where all the other restaurants are packed or have a wait, so we’ve always been able to sit in the four season room facing the streets downtown. It’s a great vantage to people watch. We’ve gotten their spetzel, schnitzel, roesti, and oddly enough, the fried fish sandwich and everything was good. But this is as far as it goes, nothing is really a standout but there are no hard fails either. The bread basket is very good. They have lots of New Glarus beer on tap and do a buffet brunch on weekends. The atmosphere crates a nice ambiance so overall, it’s a place worth checking out if you have no other dining options.

I would give this place 0 stars if I could. My husband had the Roesti(looks and tastes like a giant potato pancake that was stored in the freezer until it was removed, fried, and set on the plate) and steak(the meat was a terrible quality). Because the restaurant looked and smelled dank, I stuck with something lighter– the broiled haddock. Whatever came out had absolutely no flavor, must have also only recently been de-thawed, and was barely edible. I barely made a dent(that’s saying a lot since I was super hungry going into lunch). The«fish» came with greened beans(salted beyond belief, pathetically wilted and clearly from a can) and a baked potato(this was fine, hard to mess up, but I wasn’t 100% sure the sour cream it came with hadn’t expired, yuck). My husband asked for steak sauce to make a last ditch effort to give his steak flavor; it was never brought to us. We’ve traveled all over Europe and know authentic Swiss food. This wasn’t it. I thought Toffler’s was a decent bet, and for more variety and quality, make the 30 minute trip to Madison.

Thank you for your hospitality New Glarus Hotel! The service was immediate, the portions were massive. My only complaint would have to be the prices; for New Glarus, Wis. the entrée prices were quite high.

Came for the Easter buffet. Most everything was excellent and the service was outstanding. Would definitely consider coming here again. Note: very heavy food but everything was available in tiny potions so you could still try most things.

Wow! Saturday night they have a bufet with prime beef, Chicken, and all the Swiss side dishes. The bufet was full of fresh items that were all fantastic. The salad bar was well managed and kept full and fresh… the best part it was full of Wisconsin Cheese! The resturaunt also has a full bar! In fact two bars… Next time your in New Glarus stop buy for a cilinary Swiss treat! Dave Gombosi

I have mixed thoughts on the New Glarus Hotel. We went on a Saturday at 5:30 and the place was pretty empty, though started filling in while we ate. We ate the fondue appetizer, which is a delicious cheese mixture with a hints of something almost like campaign. You definitely need to get it if you eat here. We’ve learned over the years, that with two people and a fondue appetizer, the rest of the entrees are much too large. So we asked our waitress to split the sauerbraten and I was happy that they spit it and brought it out on two separate plates. We were right, one appetizer and one entrée is fine for two people. Especially considering the amount of delicious cheese, butter and oil they use. I was especially happy with the sauerbraten. The meat was tender and pleasantly sour. It was accompanied by a purple sauerkraut — crisp, yet tangy and its flavor cut through the gravy. The spatzli(Swiss-style noodles) though, just tasted like pan-fried, buttery noodles and not worth the calories. The service was alright, but they seemed pretty busy even though the place wasn’t filled. Overall, I’ll probably be back when I get a fondue craving or when friends come from out of town and are looking for some hearty Swiss-style food.

It’s hard to beat a town where life size plastic cows decorated in Swiss themes rome around and wood braced buildings that remind you of Zurich are at every turn. New Glarus is such a town and has many great places to meet up with friends, enjoy fondue and take a much needed break. The New Glarus Hotel has been a staple in our lives for half a decade. We have been here for a wonderful New Years Eve celebration, 4th of July and much more. The food and ambiance remind you of a well loved Swiss or German dinner club. Solidly prepared foods combined with some great reislings and local beers. The spatzl, sauerbraten and other wonderful dishes will make you wish you had worn your«stretchy pants».

One of the lamest, most annoying restaurant experiences I’ve ever had. Like, straight out a National Lampoon movie lame. Look, I know I’m just another tourist coming to eat at one of about five restaurants in town after visiting the brewery, but there’s still consequences for treating me and my friends like we’re some walking sacks of cash that need to be shaken loose. So let’s start with the service then. The minute I stepped in I swear I saw dollar signs light up
