Les Mazots - Ollon

Friendly welcome, lovely restaurant and sunny terrace

Friendly owner and server. Cheap and local people go there just like tourists

Typical Nendard bistro, great atmosphere. 5 stars for the waitress who was adorable, very welcoming and very efficient and smiling, the only downside for the boss who served me while on the phone and he was shouting in Italian, not very pleasant but otherwise great

We stopped here a couple of times whilst skiing Villars-Diablerets. They seemed very diligent, checking Covid passes and photo ID of all who entered. The self-service area was particularly busy so we opted to dine in the table service side. You need to pre-book, there are 2 sittings at 12 and 2pm. The food was really good, served by friendly and attentive staff. We also stopped for a coffee break once or twice, in the self-service side. This was the standard cafeteria offering, a bit like a school canteen and just as noisy.

What has happened to this place? It used to be okay. We reserved a table (asked to leave early because of additional sitting in the pm) and ordered fondue terrible, separated and globular. All three. The children couldn’t eat theirs because of the texture. Bread came uncut in a basket and we had to keep ordering more why not just bring out enough bread for three fondues? The salads du Ruvine is good the only good thing on the menu. Children’s meals are rubbish nuggets or spaghetti...truly not a good restaurant with poor service and inedible food. Great view.
