It's a lovely restaurant located in Wollishofen with some really delicious pasta. Our waiter was…read morevery friendly. He was from Italy and moved to Switzerland about 5 years before. Both the mushroom Rissoto and the white truffle pasta were very good. A nice place to try if you're wanting Italian food. The ambiance is also very romantic.

WORST PIZZA IN ZÜRICH!…read more We've been exploring restaurants in our new neighborhood lately. This restaurant started out promising. Nice relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, and not too crowded on a Wednesday evening. The mixed salad was fresh and delicious, perfectly dressed. I selected their namesake pizza (Pizza Allegro) thinking how could I go wrong with that. My husband chose the Pizza Miss Italia, which is his default pizza anywhere. After our delightful salads, we could not have been more disappointed by the pizzas!! Both mine and his pizzas had absolutely NO TASTE! All the ingredients were there, but it's almost like eating a painting of a pizza. Seriously, there was not even salty taste and I had plenty of parma ham on my pizza...just so odd! To make matters worse my glass of Chardonnay tasted like 0.5 dl of wine mixed with 0.5 dl of tap water. Needless to say, we didn't bother with desserts or coffee after hitting rock bottom. Crossed this place right off our list of neighborhood eats!

Vier Linden is a delightful spot, sufficiently removed from the…read moretouristy parts of Zürich (yet easily accessible from them) to have a local feel. There are really three stores here: a warm buffet, a bakery, and a restaurant. The restaurant has a small selection of prepared food, including a weekly special and daily special. The specials are a small assembly of diverse elements. You can get the specials in a large or small plate; the small plate was itself a good meal, so I imagine the large plate is pretty filling. The food is tasty and fresh. Well worth a visit. It may be the most affordable vegetarian restaurant food in Zürich.

I had breakfast there for the first time and its pretty decent. The staff is friendly. The cakes…read moreare great except for the black forest one. Just take the schwedentorte/princess cake. The only thing thats kinda weird is that its fused with a chinese restaurant, no clue why. It just looks funny but it doesnt affect your experience in any way. The bread tastes fresh, they got a high variety on sandwiches, pastries, cakes etc.

Their whole-grain croissant is really nice. Overall lovely service and great vibe.read more

Die Einrichtung erinnert an ein italienisches Kaffee :) An einem Sonnigen Nachmittag dem Treiben auf dem Bahnhofplatz zuschauen geht ebenso wie den Kaffee To Go für die Reise abholen. Persönlicher Rekord: 3min für einen Latte Macciato vom reinlaufen bis ich wieder draussen war, inkl Gipfeli. Jeden ersten Donnerstag im Monat treffen wir uns zum #SocialKafi für Frühstück und Networking. Der gemütlichste Start in den Tag neben aussschlafen ;)

I have nothing but good things to say about Gnädinger Bäckerei. I saw a picture of their vegan…read moredonuts on the Vegans of Zuri website and decided to go. When I arrived, I went up to the counter and asked one of the employees if the donuts were vegan. I asked him this in English and he replied that they were and then showed me and explained every other item they had that was also vegan- in English. His flexibility with language was very much appreciated. The bakery/restaurant is large and has a variety of different seating options- inside, bar seating, small tables in the front, and larger tables in the back. Everyone who works here is very friendly and willing to help. The food was excellent and very reasonably priced. I got a delicious prepared vegan sandwich for only 9 CHF. The coffee was also very good and the donut was perfect. It was really hearty and actually sufficed as a breakfast. It was much more filling than the typical American fluffy donuts. It tasted very fresh and was not sickly sweet. I really recommend this place! They open really early in the moning and go through 9 PM or so.

Gnaedinger is much more than I 'use' it for, to be honest, so this post only covers the…read morebakery/take-away space, and not the sit-down cafe as I've not yet had the pleasure. At the urging of a local friend, I purchased a Gnaedinger gipfeli last week for the first time. As promised, it was buttery-good. I've since been back for more of the same. Yesterday, I was hankering for a bit of chocolate, so I ordered a 'schoggi-gipfeli' (chocolate croissant). Gnaedinger offers two kinds: the usual gipfeli with a standard chocolate filling, and a 'special' gipfeli with Gnaedinger chocolate with fendant centre in the middle. As a relative newbie to the Schweiz, I can't say that I know my way around a Swiss choco-croissant, regardless if it's made with fancy chocolate or not. Still, I opted for the 'upgrade' as I was curious about the fendant-filled delight in the middle of the pastry. The schoggi-gipfeli was worth the 3.30CHF, but, let me say to the uninitiated, expect to be eating, basically, a croissant with a decently-sized chocolate bar lodged into its belly. Part of me wanted to remove the bar and eat it separately, but, as I was sitting with my bounty and a coffee near others across the way in Starbucks, I didn't want to draw attention to myself. Other good bits to be found in the Bakery/Confectionery zone: bread, rolls, sandwiches, laugenbroetli of various description, truffles, cakes and tortes.
