I’ve walked past this little spot on Alberta for years and never thought to try it until now. And boy have I’ve been missing out!
The food is absolutely delicious: a soft warm roll with their signature house made sauces; crisp, fresh, and simple green salad; perfectly cooked chicken Wienerschnitzel with browned butter and lemon, served with warm Spätzli, which I had never tired before but loved; warm profiteroles that you’ll want to eat more of even though you’re full! I also appreciated the selection of Swiss wines, which is definitely something I haven’t seen on a menu before.
All of this topped off with warm, kind, and friendly staff who are more than happy to answer questions and help you decide what to try. I am so glad I finally made the time to try this spot out; I can’t wait to come back and work through all the other items on the menu and try some of their specials! Don’t wait on this place like I did, you won’t regret spending an evening here.
Make a reservation for this cozy place with a relaxing atmosphere and very delicious food. Staff is friendly and had great recommendations. First time I've ever had fondue and it did not disappoint. Don't leave without trying the raspberry tart.
Wanted to go here for years and finally made it! All of our food was perfect. Service interaction was a little awkward with a mix of counter service and table service, but everyone was friendly. Will definitely be visiting again.
A hidden gem! The foods here taste and similar to French dishes. They all have unique tastes and most likely not disappoint you (I’m picky when it comes to western dish). The owner was initially a chef in Hawaii then he opened his own restaurant. The service was definitely professional. I’d love to go back again and try some other dishes I haven’t tried the last time.
What can I say except Swiss Hibiscus exceeded my expectations! When I found this restaurant for our vacation, it was because I was feeling cheese fondue for the evening. I found delicious cheese fondue, incredible entrees, dessert, and customer service! The restaurant setting is so cozy along with really nice employees. We ordered the escargot, cheese fondue, Swiss onion soup, spaghetti ticinese, and caramel custard for dessert. I recommend absolutely everything we ordered, especially the caramel custard!!! As a self proclaimed dessert expert, it was perfect. We also got some complimentary homemade holiday dessert made by the owner’s mother. How sweet was that? Will definitely be back next time we’re in Portland! Thank you Swiss Hibiscus and your lovely staff!
This place was delicious! It is a must visit when coming to Portland! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. 10/10 would recommend. The dishes were unique and made extremely well! And their desert (the Coupe Denmark) was delicious. One of my favorite dishes was the sautéed mushroom. I would also recommend the Swiss onion soup!
Have wanted to try this place for awhile so was thrilled to get a reservation when I came ho town for the weekend. The Sauerbraten special tasted exactly like my German grandmother had prepared it. My friend declared the wiener schnitzel the best she’s ever had. We also had the fondue and it was fantastic. We walked out with a couple bottles of the fantastic salad dressing; hope I can order more online. Service was 5 star plus. Can’t wait to return.
This place has a homely atmosphere. The staff are all pleasant and courteous. We had a glass of wine (Swiss Pinot Noir), the Swiss Onion Soup, the Jägerschnitzel w/Chanterdles (specials of the day), the Paprika Schnitzel and the Eis Kaffee (this is a like a coffee shake. (this is a dessert that is like a coffee shake). All were delicious and full of flavor. I would recommend it, but it is not a large restaurant with only 9 tables for two people. It is also open four days a week from 5:00 PM to 8:30 PM, so it is best to make a reservation.
One of the best meal experiences I've had in a long time. Quaint, cozy environment with homemade from scratch Swiss-European food. You could tell each dish was made with purpose and love. Took my Swiss father tonight and he said it was exactly like going back home again to Switzerland. He was so happy with not only the food, but also the kind, welcoming service. Don't expect to rush. This is a meal to sit and be Swiss... without rush and the time to spend enjoying the food and good company.
We tried so many dishes and they were all excellent. Fondue was creamy with the perfect balance of emmentaler and garlic. The escargot was melt in your mouth and I wanted to drink the housemade garlic butter. Salads were crisp and refreshing (Swiss Martin's dressing is a favorite in our house) and fresh baked warm crackling bread can't be beat. The entrees were also amazing, bratwurst and gravy, spätzli, roasted chicken, beautifully sauced jägerschnitzel... everything was warm and comforting while still feeling elevated and refined. Surprisingly, nothing was heavy despite being European food. It was elegant and had delicious notes.
Will definitely make this a regular meal for me and my family. Even though we were stuffed, we had to have dessert and were not disappointed. I will be dreaming about the Eis Kaffe. And my children had extra servings of their hot chocolate where the chocolate was melted fresh to order. Will frequent often and tell everyone I know!
One of my favorite restaurants to eat at. I would say it's got little Italian mostly German fusion. Absolutely delicious swiss food. A very intimate restaurant. There isn't a lot of seating and it's always packed. I would recommend making reservations. Great service as well!
