The best restaurants Geneva

The students are fond of the menus at Café Constantine. The chicken wings are a success and the kebabs are very hearty. If you have a snack, the establishment is open every day!

In a bistro atmosphere, we like to share crispy homemade pizzas with fine dough. You will be won over by the Caprices des Dieux pizza or the Dolce Vita pizza. The menu also features pasta prepared al dente such as the penne tartufo or, more exotic, the Lola Montes with Mexican spices. A beautiful decoration with the pretty detail of the tablecloths with small gingham checks and the black and white photo galleries. It is in all conviviality that one tastes these dishes full of sun. In summer, the terrace is very pleasant.

Comfortably seated on a wooden bench in a setting with a carnotzet atmosphere, we enjoy cheese fondues and meat specialities like the potence. Potence is a fun way of presenting meat on a vertically held skewer. The success and originality of the restaurant reside in the challenge which it offers: the giant burger of 1.3 kg in total! So, ready to take up the challenge? The restaurant offers the dish if you can finish the burger within 15 minutes. A friendly and pleasant atmosphere with an efficient service.

An escape to the land of smiles for lunch or take-out. Gluten-free masaman chicken, cashew tofu and a multitude of spicy delights. It's simple, all Carouge is there for delicious dishes at very competitive prices!

Chicken and nothing but chicken, but roasted to perfection and really tasty. This is the fourth address in Geneva of this chain of restaurants with an excellent quality/price ratio. Ma Cousine takes up the challenge by varying its chicken recipes according to its desires. Whether you eat it fleetingly by licking your fingers or by enjoying it minced, chicken is in the spotlight and there are many variations on the menu. Indian style chicken salad, and the unmistakable half chicken on a spit, the flagship of the establishment. Excellent concept for a good meal.

An address that takes great advantage of its location, in front of the lake, and at the entrance of the park. The terrace offers a breathtaking view of the lake. One of the pearls of this magnificent park. A prestigious restaurant in the romantic park of the Pearl of the Lake. A brasserie side, to have a drink and a dish of the day, and a restaurant side with terrace and view on the lake. La

Le Gaya offers a tasty and authentic cuisine. The classics of the gastronomy of the quiet morning country are well represented. If we were to recommend an ideal menu in addition to the proposed menus, we would invite you to taste the delicious seafood pancake and then order the pulgogi or marinated beef. If you wish to eat Korean style, you can also ask for extra salad so that you can wrap your meat with a little sauce before eating your little bite with your fingers.

One of the references, Wasabi Sushis is one of the most represented sushi and Japanese cuisine restaurants in Geneva with 13 signs. This takeaway for sushi lovers allows you to enjoy a healthy lunch without breaking the bank. Large choice of sushi, makis, californias, temakis, sashimis, and various salads: seaweed, octopus, etc., and all kinds of rolls. Innovations such as Chirashi, Tuna Avocado Tartar or rainbow rools.To eat the latter, you must be fond of mayonnaise! There are also several hot dishes for lunch.

This establishment is worth a visit for its sumptuous terrace, pleasantly shaded by an oak tree in summer. In winter, it becomes a patio. The emphasis is on decor for this bright, glass-roofed establishment, with its zinc and beer taps. When it comes to gastronomy, there's something for everyone, from pizza to... but the service can be average,

Afterwards, you can dance the night away on weekends. Appropriate dress required.

The magnificent chef of the Signal Café of Bernex moved to Chancy. The spirit of his card remains essentially the same. It is based on market products. We can see that he learned the art of cooking with the great ones such as Girardet and Chevrier. He tries to prepare everything himself and that is the way it is. He takes the time to do things and his French "cuisine-soil" has enriched new techniques, because Michel Zufferey is curious and loves learning, for the greatest pleasure of our taste buds.

In a small grocery store on the rue de Carouge is a modest but friendly Eritrean and Ethiopian restaurant. You can eat chicken(doro), lamb(kulwa) or beef(zigni) on the traditional patty,injera. The meat portions are a bit small, but the prices are low and the sauces are absolutely delicious. There is also the possibility of eating vegetarian: mashed lentils with spices(birsin), mixed vegetables with potatoes(alicha) or mashed yellow peas with paprika(shiro).

Adjacent to the Grand Théâtre and the Geneva Conservatory of Music, it is ideally located on the Place Neuve. The Café Lyrique is one of the oldest restaurants in Geneva, where artists, bankers, lawyers and even politicians meet, depending on the time of day. In a neo-classical building, the interior is reminiscent of the Parisian bistros of yesteryear with mouldings and painted medallions of illustrious classical musicians. Traditional French cuisine is revisited twice a year to make way for new products.

Carnivores, yet another address for you! That said, the restaurant owners have not forgotten about vegetarians. Located below the Place du Bourg de Four, in the old town, the restaurant benefits from a privileged location and a very old setting as the building is a hundred years old. Inside, the setting is warm and a very interesting series of old photos of Geneva is on display. In summer, the shaded terrace is pleasant. The menu offers a vast choice, with a speciality, the tartars cut with a knife or the grills.

Sun, sun! You can find it in the flavours of the South, but especially in the gigantic size of the pizzas - they overflow from the plate! Gourmet Italian cuisine, pasta, pizzas and tiramisu à la carte, and to digest the gargantuan dishes, nothing like limoncello or grappa kindly offered at the end of the meal. Perhaps a victim of its success, the service is a bit overwhelmed. Patience therefore, waiting makes appetite come... and you will need it to finish your plate. Settle down on the terrace on summer evenings and carpe diem.

The Takumi is a very beautiful address of Japanese gastronomy in Geneva. The interior is very neat in the Japanese style with honey-coloured wooden claustras and sliding panels that compartmentalise the spaces. The subdued lights and the tatami rooms give an intimate and hushed atmosphere as the Japanese tradition wants. In the kitchen, the dishes are prepared with the utmost respect for traditional cuisine. Our taste buds marvel at the grilled fish and the range of freshly prepared sushi.

This acidic-colored restaurant offers traditional Vietnamese cuisine in a warm setting. You can savor the homemade soups, especially the phở, a dish not to be missed in Vietnam, a beef broth with fragrant noodles that is served in the gargotes of Saigon, the flavors are the same without Western additions. Vietnamese pancakes, bo bun, meat buns invite you to travel. Try the homemade cold tea and the Vietnamese iced coffee with a delicious chocolate taste.

The servings are copious and the meat tasty, the reception is friendly and warm. Take on or on site with, in addition, summer, a very nice terrace.

A real favorite! An excellent concept, this café-restaurant doubles as a bookshop. After browsing through the shelves to find your book - there are second-hand works for sale on a wide variety of themes, so you'll have plenty to choose from - you can enjoy a delicious homemade vegetable tart (among others) for vegans, vegetarians and carnivores, while devouring it to the strains of Brazilian music - the managers are Brazilian. Regular concerts, literary gatherings and other events. Recommended!

A must-visit for Genevans, who appreciate the warm welcome and lively, good-humored atmosphere. The Art Deco style and uniformed waiters add charm to the place. The menu features brasserie-style dishes: grilled meats, tartars, vegetarian dishes, sauerkraut, seafood with fresh oysters. A must-try on the menu: confit lamb mouse with thyme potato gratin.

The Sunset offers a spacious and bright setting. Its decoration is discreet in pastel tones evoking bucolic nature. We appreciate to come and drink a Sunset lassi made with carrots and apples prepared at the minute. The chef is full of inventiveness to come up with a new menu and tempting suggestions every week. Among them, the unmistakable pita and its plate of crudités, the potato and fresh cheese roasts or the peppers stuffed with quinoa. Healthy, fresh and varied, these are the imperatives of a good meal.

This old Geneva bistro has a very special charm. Between its small 1930's restaurant room, elegant and cosy, and its vast terrace bathed in the shade of the plane trees of the Chaumettes park, it is difficult to choose. The speciality that makes its reputation is the famous cheese steak. Of course, other Swiss specialities are on the menu: rösti and fondue. The service is very friendly and it's like being invited into the family. So come and enjoy the seasonal dishes in the shade of the plane trees.

Do we come here out of nostalgia or envy? Since 1955, the Golden Age has taken up the challenge to be and remain a pizzeria with the good taste of Italy. A must between Quai des Bergues and Cornavin train station where all generations meet in a beautiful atmosphere. At that time, the Genevans came to taste what they called "tarts with tomato sauce". Today the pizzas still have the same manufacturing process: they are cooked in a mould, itself placed on the embers. They turn out to be small in diameter but copious.

The Garden, with its delicate, chic and luxurious setting! Le Jardin's chef, Philippe Bourel, honours the products of refined French cuisine. The dishes are both respectful of tradition and inventive. All the senses are awakened by the plates presented as works of art. Exquisite, tasty and ambitious, the dishes are exceptional. Let yourself be carried away by the red mullet and butternut squash with yuzu vinegar. The wine list offers delicious vintages that are difficult to find outside Italy.

Departure for Japan, the land of the Rising Sun and its flavors. With an ambiance reminiscent of the Extreme Orient, an Asian fast-food restaurant, the gourmet break is full of freshness. A vast choice of mouth-watering small dishes, sushi, sashimi, maki, seaweed salads, gyozas and other Japanese delights, bentos, cold noodle salads and also the bento box of the day that you can take home and enjoy. If you want to place an order, especially for large quantities, it's best to do so half a day in advance.

We choose this restaurant above all for the respect of the Indian cuisine that is served to you. Very typical with a flowery decoration and statuettes of Indian gods, openwork woodwork and invigorating colours such as bright red. We serve you excellent tandooris, biryanis and you will be delighted with the tasting menu which includes the classics of this so colourful cuisine. The reception is very friendly and the prices are quite reasonable. In short, a very good address for a culinary journey to the land of the maharajahs.

In this Vietnamese restaurant, simplicity is the honor. You'll come to enjoy a sober, low-choice menu that offers dishes in the Asian tradition, such as grilled chicken or summer rolls. The staff is very attentive and the customer a. The chef is absent from his kitchen for a moment to ensure the satisfaction of his guests. The waitresses, in their colourful Vietnamese tunics, are busy between tables to ensure rapid service, while the boss talks to the regulars. The chef has no worries to do, his kitchen is appreciated, served sparingly, but even more delicious.

Contemporary bistro style with terrace in summer, a beautiful menu that varies with the seasons: Scandinavian gravellax, red tuna with soya sashimi, duck breast with honey... And always a classic, the famous tournedos rossini! Wide choice of burgundies from all over the world. It is a place that you don't always think of in Carouge but it is worth the detour. For the record, the owner is also a great lover and connoisseur of rums and Chartreuses with vintages dating back to 1912!

This spacious restaurant in Carouge, with its typically Asian decoration, offers traditional Chinese cuisine. The speciality of the place, as its name suggests, is the Pekingese lacquered duck. The menu gives the right to a real ceremony: a duck to be tasted in three courses. First you will be offered the skin to be savoured accompanied by thin strips of leek and cucumber and a delicious sauce, all to be rolled in pancakes, then you will be served the meat first cooked in a spicy Szechuan sauce and then sautéed with soy sprouts.

At Petit-Saconnex, at the corner of Trembley Avenue and Avenue du Bouchet. Cuisine cuisine in northern Japan. Very different from what is done elsewhere. Flavours are new and surprising, even for the Japanese. There is a lot of pork and chicken. Sushi fans abstain.

It is a restaurant of sushi, sashimi, maki and various tempura. The fish is undeniably fresh. The vegetable and duck fondue for two people kamonabe style is one of their specialties. Try it!

Leave for oriental delights: the palace atmosphere in the upper room, with its fountain, and for a complete change of scenery, in the basement, a nomadic tent, the kheima, with cushions and oriental carpets. You can taste delicious specialties from the Maghreb: couscous, tajines, but also pastillas, briks, chekchouka, bourek or chorba, without forgetting the oriental pastries and the refreshing orange salad. The service is attentive and the welcome is worthy of the Maghreb countries. Every Friday evening: oriental dance. Express couscous to take away.

A refined restaurant located in the heart of the international organizations district. In the evening, you will enjoy a very pleasant and cosy setting, inspired by the Ryotei (Japanese restaurants). A varied menu and interesting proposals in the menus, which makes it an ideal starting point for a first experience of Japanese cuisine with friends. Don't forget to reserve a tatami room in the basement. Japanese fondues, natto maki and teppan yaki tuna to try. A beautiful homage to the cuisine of the rising sun and the Japanese tradition.

We're enjoying the best sandwiches in Geneva. In addition to a dish of the day, with simple and balanced flavours, preceded by a salad, Monte Bianco is best known for its hearty sandwiches served by the cut. You select what you want to eat: on a baguette, you put olive oil or butter. You then choose from large pieces of dried meat, ham with herbs, coppa... For those who don't like meat, an excellent fresh octopus in pieces can be substituted with an accompaniment of fresh or dried tomatoes.

Cinecitta is a real hymn to cinema. The name is appropriate with the nostalgic decor from the great years of Italian cinema: Cinema Paradiso. Once the atmosphere has been conferred, it is only possible to choose which seat to take, that of Begnini, Bertulocci or Bellucci, to taste the fantastic pizzas, linguine al pesto or the pennes a la norma or the saltimboca. This "Cité du Cinéma" has certainly its own festival of pizzas with toppings and original names like the Miss Italia. You can also get seated on the terrace in summer while enjoying a nice Italian salad. This delicate and tasteful tribute will please those who love Italian cinema and food.

Clothes don't make the man, and the outward appearance doesn't pay much attention, but good brunch is served in this café just a stone's throw from Parc de la Grange. What better way to start - or continue - your day than with a good green papaya salad, pad thai and a virtual departure to Thailand, or opt for Western cuisine. The deliciousweekend brunch is not to be missed after a jog in the park, on the quayside or before a Sunday stroll. You'll feel right at home here, and the welcome you'll receive in this little corner of Asia is excellent. A great address!

It is a food court on an island, on the Rhone river not far from the BFM. The setting is very original. The stands are installed in an old industrial building. The site has three terraces. Singaporean, Vietnamese, Indian, South American or European cuisine is offered. At the back, the terrace could give the impression to be on the stern of a boat. The place is much more worth a stop for a cocktail in the summer than for its gastronomy or service. At the time of writing, the Grand Central concept is evolving.

A departure to Thailand, the time of a meal, to travel before the hour, before leaving for the kingdom of Siam. Excellent Thai cuisine, offering of course the great classics such as thom kha gai, chicken, coconut and galangal soup, various soups with lemongrass, meat dishes (chicken, duck, beef or pork), fish or shrimps with a wide range of flavors: red, green or panang curries.
