Grand Hotel Les Trois Rois

We went to this restaurant with some expectations. This brasserie is located in the most expensive hotel of Basel. We were welcomed very nicely and brought to a nice table with view on the river. The gentleman who took our order was great as well. So far so good. Aperitif was served after we did order our food. Bit strange. But they let us finish our glass before the first course came. Our young waitress which was clearly French and had apparently no good other language skills, was slow. We are here in the German part of Switzerland. And most customers around us were international guests. Service was very slow. We only heard complaints at neighbour tables as well. We chose cheese as a desert. This was a huge portion, which we both did not finish. The meal quality was fine, but not really special (I know this is a brasserie). To pay 500 CHF for 3 courses , wine and coffee and get this service is a disaster. We never experienced this in any other restaurant in Switzerland. You always pay quite some money for diner here, but we always say that in all restaurants the service is outstanding. I am sorry to say, but this was our first and last visit to this brasserie.

We had a large group dinner at this restaurant which has great views of the Rhine river. We had to make reservations well in advance and were obliged to select one of five tasting menus in advance. They restaurant team was kind enough to allow us to have two options for the main entree in the tasting menu. The 5 course tasting menu proved to be excellent. The service was also excellent with a very energetic, enthusiastic waiter and a highly knowledgeable sommelier. The wine list is substantial with many great choices from Switzerland and nearby Alsace as well as other major regions of France, Italy, and Spain.

Quick lunch with our Swiss grandsons (5 7) and friends from Malta passing through. The restaurant staff were extremely helpful and coped perfectly with our tight schedule. They made us feel very welcome and made a special fuss of the little boys. They even served a complimentary cake when they heard it was my birthday. The food was first-class and the wine suggestions were excellent. There was a magnificent view of the Rhine from our window table. A special mention for the valet parking. We will certainly return soon !

The service is elegant and unobtrusively helpful. The decor and location overlooking the Rhine make for a restful but exciting ambience. The lobster bisque was to die for and up there with the best lobster bisque in the world at the Adler hotel in Berlin ….my opinion!
