    One of only a handful of fondue restaurants in London,  St Mortiz is cheese heaven. It also evokes such fond memories of going skiing - a fondue often being the highlight of the week and something, whilst expensive on the slopes, I always look forward to.  

    I loved this quaint little alpine oasis on Wardour street. It's  one of the cutest restaurants I've been to, feels so much like a mountain chalet, with wonky floors, heavy plush carpet, twisted exposed wooden beams and throughout hangs large cow bells.

    They've gotten every detail just right, even down to the beautiful plates, designed with a groove so that you can rest your cheese fork all snug and safe.

    And the fondue? Well it was amazing. We ordered a couple for the table to share, which came with potatoes, bread and vegetables and I'm sad to say, whilst we tried our hardest, there was just too much cheese for us to handle. The cheese itself might not be the cause of nightmares, but that we left some uneaten, is.

    For larger tables you need to give a deposit and order in advance, however the process was very easy, the staff I spoke to were very helpful and responsive to my enquires.

    We also brought a vegan friend and they were very happy to discuss an alternative menu option with him which left him very happy.

    Wine was  also reasonably priced and at about £20 for a cheese fondue (per head, and you need 2 people to order one), I thought it was really reasonable. In the end the bill can to about £30, which I think was an absolute bargain.

    I shall be planning on going back, as soon as my little podgy cheese filled legs will carry me.

    Fondue. For you and you and you.

    Pretty good - very swiss and when you walk in it actually feels like you've been transported to switzerland. The first time I went was the first legit time I've ever had fondue, which I was just like whhhaaaaat - fondue? just cheese and bread? terrible.

    The second time I had fondue - and I knew what I should've been expecting - it was BOMB. Highly recommend checking it out.

    First Switzerland's cuisine for me is here, so I wondered if it's dodgy, but pretty much better than expected. Cheese fondue was so marvelous I found myself had too much bread. Some day I shall be back again.

    The first impression here reaches your nose before all other senses, the air is heavy with the thick and delicious scent of cheese, assailing you in the face as you walk in the door.
    After awhile you acclimatise and notice that you have walked into a Swiss lodge, with bells adorning the room and a warm, cosy atmosphere. There is an a la carte menu, but I came here for fondue and chose the vegetable fondue, thinking with all that Gruyere cheese, surely it would be lighter than the meat option. It was absolutely lovely, but I don't think there is a light way to have fondue, I was so full!  The vegetable option came with a generous and varied plate that included mushrooms, courgette, carrots, and broccoli. Any fondue is minimum for 2 people, but to be honest it's so generously portioned that 3 could easily share it.

    The raclette appetiser was also delicious, and I quite wish I had more of it as soon as it was finished. The raclette cheese itself was so moreish, went well with the potatoes, and I loved the little pickles. We ordered bread for the fondue, but the vegetables alone are so filling that I hardly had space for the bread, which seemed to be never-ending. My friend ordered the escargot appetiser, which I tried and found quite pleasant even though I'm not that familiar with the dish. This is probably bad fondue etiquette, but if you like your vegetables soft, then I'd recommend keeping them dipped in the cheese for awhile so that they cook a bit.

    Even though I was absolutely stuffed, I saved space for dessert (second stomach of course), and we ordered the chocolate fondue. It was also incredibly generous, with a beautifully laid out plate of fruits, biscuits, and marshmallows. The chocolate was absolutely delicious and went really well with the marshmallows, and even in my extremely full state, I could not resist finishing them off. The strawberries and oranges were fresh and and sweet and the fruit quality is top notch.

    As well as the excellent food, half of the fun of fondue is the camaraderie of dipping morsels into the cheese with your friends in the literally warm atmosphere. We had an absolutely lovely time in this charming restaurant. This is definitely not a light meal with all the cheese and bread, but it is quite a fun fondue experience, good for chilly nights with cheese-loving friends.

    Their cheese fondue is on point! Also tried esgarot as starter, which tastes fantastic as well. It is a bit pricey though. Make sure you've made a reservation before visit because it is always very busy.
