Outstanding French dinner in Zürich. We were hungry early…read moreand after checking Yelp decided to ask if they had any openings. The answer was yes but we could only have table for 90 min ( we gladly accepted). Outstanding menu. Very friendly service. Nice selection of wines by the glass. Entrees were great. Didn't get dessert bcuz we ran out of time and they did not offer ( fair is fair- our time was up). Nothing in Zurich is cheap but the prices were not over the top. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Anthony ( who assisted our server) is one of the friendliest people I've encountered in a restaurant.

It is a beloved French-Swiss restaurant hidden away in a historic, idyllic inner courtyard in Zurich's Old Town. Located at Nagelhof 3, 8001 Zürich, it offers a charming Mediterranean ambience paired with fresh Provencal market cuisine.

There are about 4-5 tables or so and a single server that tends them all. The menu is essentially prix fixe and I had no clue what I was getting myself into. Once the food stared to arrive, literally everything was amazing! The soup was delicious, the fish was soft and buttery, the truffle ravioli was ridiculous and the octopus was fantastic! Overall, this is a very solid Swiss dining experience and I would recommend trying it out if in Zurich, but be sure to bring your wallet (roughly 110-150CHF per person) and make reservations. Pros- Location Service Ambiance Homely feel Food taste Friendliness Menu Wine list TRUFFLES! Cons- Pricey Fills up quickly Limited cocktail selection

During a two day stay in Zurich my son and I stopping into B-Lipp for lunch at noon. We were asked…read moreif we had a reservation (we did not) and they did seat us rather quickly. My son and I ordered a French Onion soup for each of us and a large bucket of Mussels. Service up until the serving of the soup was very good and after became excellent. While enjoying our soup my son remembered that he had an appointment close by and had to leave for that appointment but not before finishing the excellent soup. When the waiter returned to clear our soup bowls he inquired as to where my son was, and I told him what happened. He said no problem he will hold the mussel order until he gets back (by now the restaurant was full) which I thought was so nice. He held the order for 90 Minutes!!! All the while as I asked him to please place the order to turn the table he insisted that it was ok. My son returned we devoured the delicious mussels had an espresso and let a big tip. It was a very nice thing the waiter did and we surly enjoyed our food.

The bread basket had plain white bread slices that were very fresh and very good. There was also a basket outside the bathroom with bite-size Daim bar candies, which we pilfered a bunch of every time one of us went to the bathroom. So yummy... We got Pommes Allumette (skinny fries, AKA matchstick potatoes) as a side, and the meat and fries were all-you-can-eat. They also served us an eggplant appetizer marinated in balsamic vinegar. Normally I don't like really sour things, but the appetizer was very tasty. One of my friends doesn't eat meat, so she ordered the fish, and that was also all-you-can-eat. Our table of 6 shared two bottles of red wine (Atalayas, Ribera del duero) and sparkling water, and the bill came out to about 85 per person (not including tip). Dress appropriately, because the heat from the grill will make you HOT. I'm glad I wore a tank top to dinner. All-in-all, good fun and good eats. The thin beef steaks are quite lean and don't have much taste on their own, so you need to eat them with all the condiments. I'm not a huge fan of the skinny fries, but they are very French, so we all got them as sides, since we were in a French restaurant. Make sure you make a reservation, because they were fully booked out on a Friday night.

This is getting boring but I keep on saying the same thing in my reviews: simplicity is the…read moreultimate form of sophistication! When I came here I was not expecting too much since it was grilled, non-seasoned/marinated meat with some basic sauces plus fries. But oh my: the quality of the meat was amazing and the grilled beef was de-li-cious! I didn't even need any of the condiments, just the beef was enough. It was so good that I was craving it for days. That being said, the condiments were quite good too, I really liked the mustard fruit and the peppers, they really complimented the meat. And oh, the fries, they were tasty and crunchy so I was for sure a happy trooper! Also, the service was prompt and correct. I must admit that we went on a rainy weekday when there were not that many other people so I am not sure if it is representative. Anyways: even my "not-so-keen on beef" friend also liked it too so enough said... I enjoyed my evening at La Cote and would go back if the right opportunity comes up!

When in Switzerland, I chose the Schweiz Hypérion, Clos du Châtelard, Villeneuve. It was fabulous. The menu concept is a multi course with fixed price. All you need to decide is how many courses and what you would like as your starter, main and dessert. 4 courses was perfect for me and chose the delicious steak with a minor surcharge based on portion size. The service was amazing. The table linens were pressed and as fine as one would expect. The restaurant was decorated for the holidays and made it feel extra special. I loved my experience here and would highly recommend.

The Aubergine tartar felt light, healthy, & was a great starter. The sautéed filet of Pike Perch was light and just flaked perfectly. The Zurich venison was tender and the truffle foam sauce was creative. The duo of Zurich beef was such a beautifully creative plate that showed the beef in different ways & was delicious. The Wienerschnitzel was moist, tender & crispy on the outside. The filet of Icelandic Cod was perfectly cooked, flakey and soft. For dessert the white chocolate mousse with grapes was a refreshing, light finish and a great way to show variety in how to incorporate grapes in the dish. The yuzu panna cotta with fresh berries had bright citrus flavor & is also a light finish dessert. The chocolate cake is sweet and great for any chocolate lover.

I started with the onion soup, my husband had a salad, and our son had the corn soup. All three were excellent. For entrees, my husband chose the cordon blue, I had the veal with rösti, and our son had the veal stroganoff. Again, all three were excellent. Best of all, the service was simply wonderful. Not having been there before, we felt underdressed and yet they treated us with class. Why I rated it 5 stars: 1. The food was not only beautifully prepared, it was delicious. 2. Portions were ample. 3. The restaurant was clean and classy. 4. The staff was friendly and helpful. 5. The music wasn't too loud, making our table conversation easy. 6.

Sad to say that we ordered the same exact lunches. The Veal Zurich Style served with Rosti and the White Asparagus served with a vinaigrette sauce. The prices have not changed since our last visit 12 months ago which is shocking. We did just order the small portion of asparagus. Our dishes arrived and they were beautiful. Perfect plating of delicious food. As we were eating I said "I wonder if I get a second portion this year as the prices haven't increased"...I wanted to savor every taste of veal and mushrooms in that gravy and tried to hold back on the potatoes. And then our server stopped by and ask if I was ready for the second serving. A big grin filled my face. The BEST Geschnetzeltes in Zuich!!! One can read my last review as we do not waiver on our thoughts about the restaurant, the service, the food and the atmosphere. Perfection in all aspects. Recommend booking in advance. And yes, one again Veltlinerkeller exceeded our expectations. The restaurant was totally full with locals which is always a great sign. The staff was the same which also says something these days.
