La Fondue is located in the center of Saratoga Village on Big Basin Way at the corner of 4th Street. The restaurant’s interior reflects a new interpretation of European design that avoids cliché interpretations. La Fondue offers a unique experience serving over 50 types of fondues served tableside. We offer a “chill out” dining experience, a little bit glamorous, a little bit classic. Try our Wild Game, Kobe Flat-Iron, or Private Reserve Filet Mignon cooked in one of our four cooking methods. Then top off your evening with a decadent chocolate fondue dessert.
Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply craving a romantic dinner, La Fondue promises an unforgettable blend of mood and food.

The menu is a little bit confusing, but the waiter was helpful in answering all of our questions. For the cheese course - the bread seemed stale. Food was not memorable.

Waiters were very sweet but took forever to serve our 4 course dinner. Had to ask for refill of water 5 times. Food was yummy but service could definitely be improved.

The fondue “classic Swiss” was disappointing. Very bland and I question the type of cheese used. Doubt any emmenthal or gruyère were used in the mix and get more like the Kraft Swiss cheese taste.

The service was impeccable; upon entering throughout the meal. All of whom were 25 or younger but had the experience of service excellence that you would expect from Michelin tiered restaurants. Totally will come again at least once a quarter if not more. So many types of fondue that we can’t wait to try. Again, the food was excellent but the service was so on point that this review deserves more stars than available to giveaways 🤙🤙🤙

The rise in prices is ridiculous. This place use to be packed and never really is now and it is because it is so over priced. They are also skipping on portions now. Salad is smaller and they do not even make a full pot of cheese now. I will not be back. Will find an alternate.

We took my dad here for his birthday! It was our second time coming and José was a fabulous server. He was much more informative and helpful with our courses and meat/seafood cooking times. The birthday surprise at the end was so thoughtful and helpful brought Apple ciders out for those that had not been drinking to celebrate the birthday with! Thank you for making it special and memorable!
