The food here is all from scratch and unlike some of the other corporate owned Italian restaurants in town does not have an oversized menu. But what they do is of the highest quality and from scratch. Service is excellent and the space immaculate. Wine by the glass list is solid. Had a pasta dish with salmon the first time and veal scallopine the second time. Started salad ( Mista) was terrific. Highly recommended.

Selected this restaurant based on proximity to the lake and menu. There are three seating options:…read moreumbrella seating on boulevard, awning covered outside and inside. On our visit around 6pm the boulevard was 50% full, outside 10%, inside empty. We were quickly seated and offered a beverage. Our drinks arrived promptly and our order was taken. Our server offered bread accompanied by balsamic. Overall the service, location, prices and vibe was positive. My only objection/negative was how long it took for a salad and pizza to arrive - 1 hour is too long. We noticed most of the tables around us filling up in that hour and them receiving their food. After 45 minutes we asked our server about the order and he said they are making it, I will say he was very nice and apologetic. When the food arrived it was very good. I had the salad Della casa, my companion had margherita pizza. If timing was not an issue I would give 4 stars, but they seem to have issues handling a full house or organizational challenges.

The meat itself was tender and nicely hot. You have to check out the menu for some interesting uses of it --- Döner burger and Döner pizza caught my eye. Only downside was the TV, which was blaring Jersey Shore spinoff "Snooki & JWoww" the entire time we were there. It's hard to enjoy good hummus when there's a nasal voice screaming "It smells like poop!" over and over in your ear.

For me still the best Kebab in the world-or at least in Zurich …read more They make the bread always fresh to order and the meat they're using has a much better quality than most of the kebab joints around. Staff is always very friendly and altough it can get very busy, i've never waited for more than 10 minutes. Not much space to sit inside.

A tiny little kebap-and-soda place hidden in the wall near the Platte tram stop. Not surprisingly,…read morethis place does killer business with the UZH students walking by. The food's quite good --- not the best döner I've had in Zürich, but very close to it. The meat's fresh, well roasted but not dried out, thinly sliced, and not too fatty. The "Brottasche" rolls are quite good if a little substantial; the "Fladenbrot" wraps are on the floury side, not as interesting. There's three tiny tables inside if you feel like sitting down; outside of the lunch rush, there's usually one open. If you need to relax during lunch, the've got cheap Feldschlösschen beer in the ubiquitous blue can. Not the fanciest or healthiest lunch around --- but hearty,inexpensive, and much more satisfying than the cup-o-noodles from Russo that seems to be the local alternative.

I really like this place and I wish I could eat here often. The atmosphere is upscale-casual…read more From outside, the lighting invites one to enter the establishment and be comfortable. There is a counter for ordering eat-in or take-away. The menu is in German, but there is also a menu in English for us..."non-fluent in Germen language folks". In this way, the ordering line can move faster because the staff do not need to spend a lot of time translating the menu to patrons. There is a separate counter for ordering delicious-looking desserts. There is seating on the street level and upstairs in another dining area. Once you order the food, you take a seat at a table (depending upon the time of day, it might be difficult to find a seat) and your food is brought to you. My positive experience was further augmented by my wonderful companions and the delectable food.

I walked in and started speaking Italian to the Pizziola! He was so friendly. When he learned that I owned a pizzeria in New York , he invited me to make a pizza in his restaurant .

Mind you, we had just finished. 5 course meal 1/2 block away but there is always room for pizza! It was delicious! Light , airy, not too cheesy and baked to perfection .
