Restaurant Pizzeria Winkler In Falzes

03/03/2026: As a long-time regular at the old, always-busy Zuegg Hut, I visited the newly built, very elegant, modern, and chic Zuegg Hut for the first time today. New always means different, but by no means the same as the old, and certainly not necessarily better. But that's a matter of personal taste and varies from person to person. Not only is the building new, but the cuisine is also supposed to be new and innovative. All the dishes we ordered were very tasty and of high quality. The staff was young and tried their best to be friendly. However, any deviation from the new concept, even a small special request, was neither desired nor possible. Although the classics of Alpine cuisine were still on the menu, the quintessential classic, Kaiserschmarrn, was only available to order from 2:30 pm onwards. When I asked the kitchen if it might be possible to order it earlier, around noon – something I've experienced without any problems at other Alpine restaurants in many ski resorts – the answer was inconsistent with the concept and was refused. Other reviewers have also complained about this. However, since the restaurant was sparsely populated (!), the Kaiserschmarrn was suddenly available to order at 1:30 pm after we had finished our meal, something that had been impossible at 12:30 pm. I wish the new owner all the best; the time-honored adage of the restaurant industry, "The customer is king," shouldn't be forgotten, even with the most modern and innovative concept. First impressions count, and fulfilling this small request would have made the experience perfect and guaranteed a return visit, but thankfully there are plenty of alternatives.
