Rote Wand Schualhus - Lech

Young Maxl with his childish appearance seems to be a very creative and competent guy when it comes to his cooking skills. A shame that his inflated ego ruins the experience. My friends of Condé Nast and I were instructed to pay a little...surprising visit to the accommodation in order to review the facility as a whole; on arrival we were pleasantly surprised by the modern and well maintained terrain. The restaurant has an unmistakable alpine character with a spiritually modern twist, which was pleasant for the eye and the senses due to the ubiquitous weather of burnt herbs you meet on the entire estate. The menu we enjoyed was surprisingly creative, combined with a nouvelle kitchen approach with local ingredients; a feist for the eye and palette. The staff is usually very busy with the culinary journey and the ingredients used, which are a convincing picture. The restaurant has an exciting selection of wines with rarities at a reasonable price. Crockery and glassware are to be expected for such a location of high quality. When it comes to pure culinary experience, there is really nothing to complain about. But, and this is such a shame, our experience has greatly stained by the obnoxic arrogance and presumptuous behavior of Max, the chef, the reasons unknown to us, it has its goal of the evening, in its fullest ability to feel something as welcome. Disorders of the chef's table experience were literally thrown before our faces without explanation and we were reminded by this child of a chef on a constant basis that, if at all, we should be grateful, we have received the rare opportunity to sit on his cooking table. We find it extremely sad that a restaurant with such a potential offers a youthful chef with an obvious infertility problem and a Napoleon complex that creates an otherwise extraordinary experience in a despicable entrance in the hall of fame of kitchen night rooms. Apart from that we would recommend that the facility be found in the care of its laminators, which we found in an unconscionable state (there was urine on the whole floor). When the Red Wall finally gets rid of the egocentric cook and invests in the entire customer journey mapping process, not everything is lost. Because of the above problems, we can only reward two out of five stars.

We visited in February 2019 to eat at the Chef's Table in this old schoolhouse, a U shaped arrangement of the counter around the kitchen with the guests on high chairs able to observe how every dish is prepared. The dishes themselves were amazing innovative...pairings of ingredients but without losing sight of what ultimately counts: the taste. The young chef and his even younger crew are clearly enthusiastic. This was one of our most enjoyable meals in a long time. The dishes are expertly paired with wine some of them natural wines which are not necessarily to everyone's taste and for those who'd rather forgo alcohol, with exquisite apple and fruit juices from Thomas Kohl. The prices are very reasonable for what is being offered. A very memorable experience that we would be eager to repeat.

We went with our family of 5 to last night fondue dinner there. The setting si beautiful and we would recommend taking a horse drawn sleigh from Lech. Lots of choices fro fondue including fish which is rare in Austria. Service and ambiance is excellent....Wine list extensive and high quality. Personally I would stay with Austrian wines. Would return anytime.

14 walks, with wine tasting (4 weine,) chefs table with manuel grabner. kulinar the absolute highlight of my, added, still quite young, living! on the one hand the excellent service, on the other hand the history, the origin and the destiny of each dish to hear, see and taste, were a truly unique experience. in a small but fine round of 12 people, U-shaped around the open kitchen sitting, 2 meters from the heart, made the evening a highlight of my lech holiday! exceptionally, I save myself the description of the dishes - that is the love for kulinarik and regional products and producers must have experienced themselves. was my first chefs table in schualhus, but definitw not my last - is now visited every year!

Regional and typical Austrian, the schualhus should be. this claim is fully successful, so this restaurant is so unique. the food and drink card is good and clear. you find food there that are nowhere else offered. the foods are already a bit dedicating, but very tasteful and saturating, what you miss in upscale restaurants. the service was very professional and charming.
