Mountain experiences - outdoor adventures, food, family, friends and community – always find us at our happiest.

At Matterhorn Restaurant & Bakery we showcase the magical experience of Swiss on-mountain dining, whether it’s après-ski, après-work, or après-all day.

Our restaurant focuses on authentic alpine cuisine, thoughtfully sourced and lovingly served in a setting inspired by the mountain "Stüblis" of the Alps. The menu is anchored by the Swiss classics of Fondue and Raclette - but features other typical fare highlighting various alpine regions.

Beer, wine and beverage offerings are designed to feature classic and fun pairings from Old and New World alike.

The Matterhorn has been a San Francisco institution, and we're proud to bring a fresh new chapter to its iconic story. As our guest it's an honor to have you at the story's center!

    We were there for our granddaughters 18th birthday. She loved the experience. We all enjoyed the food and the service was great! She was surprised by the birthday greeting at the end and we were very appreciative of that👍

    The atmosphere is Alpine comfortable and the fondue and schnitzel were home-cooked delicious. We wanted something different and tasty in the City and were glad to find this place.

    It's a very unique experience! The Matterhorn is one of those places that immerses you into a stylized experience, with inviting aromas, gentle lighting, perfect dinner music and a wonderful ambiance. The cheeses were delicious and it was so much fun sharing them at the table and chatting about them. I would definitely come back!

    My experience at Matterhorn Restaurant was amazing! They attended to my needs when I needed to change my reservation to 3 people instead of 2! So helpful and kind thank you.

    Very unique dining experience but was not really a fan of any of the cheese fondue but my wife loved it so that’s what matters! The filet was amazing but I wish I could order it without rosemary rub which was overpowering. The s’mores fondue was incredible!

    We booked a reservation for two on a Friday night for our anniversary. We had passed by the restaurant for years and finally decided to try! Shelia at the hostess booth was warm and welcoming and got us seated at a cozy table away from everyone for our romantic evening. Delia, our server, took exceptional care of us. She offered very helpful insight to our order to make sure we were ordering things that complimented one another and helped so we didn’t order too much! Food was so nostalgic and good, everything we ordered was perfect. They were even sweet enough to bring us out a small dessert plate and two glasses of bubbly for our special night. We can’t wait to come back with friends !

    Great wine selections, cozy atmosphere. The traditional cheese fondue was excellent, but make sure to ask for extra pickled veggies. The meat course was over-seasoned with some herb rub yet under-salted. The sauces were also very herby. However, the meat itself was high quality with almost no gristle at all.
