Restaurant Tournant Le Kuklos
About
Luxury dining meets alpine adventure at Restaurant Tournant Le Kuklos, perched 2,048 m above sea level on the Berneuse in Leysin. Guests are welcomed into a revolving, 360°‑panoramic restaurant that offers a buffet à volonté inspired by the rugged terroir of the Swiss Alps and beyond. The menu blends cold and hot platters, a live‑cooking station featuring raclette and fondue prepared by the head chef, and a selection of decadent desserts that sparkle against the backdrop of the mountains. A visit is as much an experience as it is a meal: the restaurant slowly rotates, letting diners witness the passing of peaks in real time while savoring dishes that echo the flavours of the surrounding valleys. The buffet’s rotation takes approximately 90 minutes, giving patrons ample time to explore the diverse offerings and the stunning vistas. Reservations are encouraged, especially during peak ski season when cable‑car access is essential. Guests can book their table directly through the official website, ensuring a seat in this unique culinary setting. The restaurant is family‑friendly, providing highchairs and a welcoming atmosphere for families, groups, and corporate gatherings alike. With a 24‑hour panoramic view, a live‑cooking lounge, and an adventurous menu that celebrates alpine cuisine, Le Kuklos is an exceptional destination for those seeking a memorable mountain dining adventure.
