Jägerhof

$$$$ Fodor's choice
This light and airy room in a 19th-century town house is St. Gallen's top address for organic ingredients, light, innovative cuisine, and heartfelt service. Local foodies and hipsters alike enjoy the prix-fixe menu that might include rabbit stuffed with truffles, chicken liver with brioche and quince compote, or pike perch with risotto and celery. Chef Agron Lleshi, who studied under former chef Vreni Giger, has taken over the local institution and is still committed to providing a gourmet experience without the snooty attitude that often accompanies it elsewhere.
