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.

Our family always celebrates birthdays at La Fondue. The type of meal is always memorable. This time a couple of things were off. I had requested a table on the back room because of fumes concentration, we were first seated in another area, the room on the left, which already had all tables full and the smoke was bad. We were reseated. The chocolate fondue was good as always, the fixings to dip the fondue were very few, the cream cheese balls were only a couple and tiny. There were no "cream puffs"!!!!! The young waitress made an effort to be attentive. There was a long pause with all the dirty dishes before the chocolate fondue arrived.

Great place to have a romantic dinner of dinner with close friends. Food and service are great. We have been going to this place for special occasions for more than a decade. We no longer live in the area and we are visiting and we decided to come to this restaurant because we love it and bring us good memories.

Our server Jill was amazing as always. If Jill didn’t work here me and my wife would be really sad. The staff supporting her is super terrific as well. The food was excellent as usual. Love this place all around. A plus plus.

They were extremely slow. Our meal took 3.5 hours! It was our waiters 2nd day and they way over worked him. It’s not an easy waiter job and he was trying to serve at least 7 tables. It wasn’t his fault. Management should stepped in to help.

Great atmosphere. Elegant, special occasion type restaurant. But make no mistake: you don’t dine here if you’re looking to get in and out in less than two hours, and be prepared to spend $350+ for two. Our bill came to $500 after tip, and we only had one drink apiece!

Alex was amazing! Great service and a nice atmosphere to my fiancées thirtieth birthday celebration. It was just he two of us but he made the whole evening feel special and recommended some amazing drinks. It was definitely a bit pricey but more than worth it for the experience. I don’t think we’d go back for the four course full tasting menu but it’s a must try for your first time there. Honestly, Alex’s amazing service made the evening that much more special.
