The concept is known but still works: we go to the different stands (pizzas, pasta, salads...) to order and we go back when the beeper we were given starts to vibrate. We then settle down at large tables unless we prefer a more intimate atmosphere. Finally, everything is set up at the exit by giving the card that you have loaded with each order. This system is very practical and particularly effective among young people, especially since the quality is high. In fact, everything is done to the minute in front of us.

Ideally located in the heart of Zurich, this bar-restaurant boasts a small, dark wood-panelled room that was once overrun by student guilds.

This old building tells us a lot about the commercial activity of this street since the Middle Ages. Once a craftsman's house, the site was replaced by two houses after a fire in 1280. Very early on, an inn was set up within these walls, next to a butcher's shop. The short circuit was more in the customs! The high vaulted ceilings give the place this atmosphere of yesteryear. Today, the cuisine is that of a simple and authentic brasserie with a warm atmosphere. You will be immersed in Switzerland as we imagine it through the best clichés.

Close to the cathedral, an erststockbeizli (historic house from the 16th century) with a charming little room upstairs, typical and charming (dark woodwork, rustic benches and tables, beautiful wrought iron mobiles).

A small terrace for the summer. To be discovered!

This is the most famous and certainly the best erststockbeizli, over 500 years old, as the dark woodwork testifies. In this typical Swiss restaurant, the chef prepares excellent rösti, as well as excellent hunting dishes in winter.

From farm to fork, that's the concept behind this restaurant. Here, "eating local" becomes a culinary art of the highest order.

The chef also offers vegetarian and vegan dishes. Delicate, sustainable gastronomy, an elegant, light-filled space, a rich wine list: a successful equation for a distinguished evening.

Here is a three-in-one concept: café, restaurant and bar at the same time, there is something for everyone at the Grand Cafe! In the morning, you can enjoy tasty frühstück (breakfast) with home-made pastries and a nice selection of hot drinks. At lunchtime, the menu offers a gourmet and efficient cuisine: escalope à la viennoise, salad with sausages and cheese... In the evening, the place with its urban decor is transformed into a lively bar very popular with the locals, offering a nice cocktail menu. Try it with friends!

The Delmonico restaurant Côté offers innovative and Reinvented Italian cuisine. The atmosphere of 1920, with its painted red chairs, may not delight everyone but the atmosphere remains elegant in this small room. Gourmets will delight in the delicacy of dishes and presentation efforts. The particularity of this luxury restaurant is to stay affordable at midday with a very well cooked menu.

The fresh produce lovers and organic can impress with a good quality cuisine. The welcome is friendly and the knowledgeable service in this restaurant near the lake, in the heart of a peaceful area and residential. All the food of the menu are season; buildings and certified organic. Crunchy steamed vegetables, lasagne house and chicken are organised simple but the taste is poor. The daily lunch change every day and are consultable on the website. You can also book on line. A good place for fans of eating real and well-balanced. Read more
