After a week in Europe, this is the only restaurant visited worthy of a five star review. The…read moreothers were not disasters but nothing worthy of a Yelp write up. Setting - Beautiful. I would say an authentic but modern Swiss restaurant. Obviously clean as almost all are but just very nicely decorated and has a sense of casual luxury. Food - The standout. The salad with egg and Rapeseed was perfect. The Zuri Gschnatzlets was very original and exactly as expected. The fish from lake Zurich (wonder if that is really true LOL) was very nice and the side of pasta and carrots were prepared without fault. Service - smiling. Wine - a lot. Photos - explain the rest.

Located in Old Town Zürich, this eatery was an ideal place to stop and grab a bite to eat for lunch…read moreafter strolling around the city! There was immense variety in their selection of food and options for those who maybe vegan, vegetarian, gluten sensitive, etc! I ordered a salad and took bits and pieces from other meals around the table- all delicious! The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and the establishment was kept clean! Definitely give it a try if you are in the area:)

Das Restaurant gehört zu den Klassikern in Zürich für traditionelle und typisch lokale Küche…read more Das Ambiente ist wie das Essen traditionell - der Service ist durchaus freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Preis - Leistungsverhältnis ist etwas weniger traditionell und entspricht den Zürcher hohen Standards. Ich fand die "Kalbsläberli mit Rösti" maximal durchschnittlich. W'scheinlich muss man das Lokal wegen dem "Klassiker" Status mal besuchen aber für mich reicht das dann auch...

Extremely overpriced restaurant for below average food. As another reviewer mentioned, there were a…read morelot of locals when I walked in so I was expecting great things. Unfortunately great things is not what I got. Instead I got very overpriced, below average food. I ordered the veal cutlet which was 42 CHF which is $47 and 3/4ths of the plate was essentially fried potatoes. You might think I'm exaggerating, but I implore you to check the picture. In the US any $47 meat dish would be 3/4th meat, 1/4th potato. Yes I understand it's some kind of traditional Swiss Rösti, but it tastes like fried potatoes. In fact I could only eat a little bit of it because it started to bother my stomach. The veal cutlet itself was decent. It could've been more tender and the flavor was decent. Nothing special and certainly not worth 47 CHF. I will give credit where credit is due though. The two cherry tomatoes included with the dish were quite exceptional. They were literally bursting with flavor and very fresh. I could've eaten ten more. This was unfortunately the exception. The chocolate lava cake was quite good. Perhaps the best chocolate lava cake I've had so far in my 4 month stint in Europe. It was very chocolatey and the middle had that chocolate oomph you'd expect from a top chocolate producer like Switzerland. Overall I wouldn't recommend coming here unless you enjoy getting fleeced. Price is usually not such a sticking point for me, but I was just so shocked by the $47 plate that was mostly potatoes. Save your tastebuds and your wallet and look else where.

Wanted to try some of the local food and stumbled on this place. Went for an early dinner and the…read moreplace was pretty quiet. Asked for a table in the main dining area, but was told no without a reservation. After dinner - main area was still not full, so that part of the experience didnt leave a positive impression. We were seated in the front area which has a few tables, with a mix of people having drinks and a couple of tables ordering the full menu. Not specific to this restaurant, but in zurich they have to list the origin of some ingredients including meats and fish. This is helpful when ordering. The pork cordon bleu was really good and I would have that again. Minus a couple if stars for the slow service and unwillingness to seat us in main area despite it being pretty empty.

I finally ate dinner here yesterday (Friday), and it was fabulous! You can make reservations via…read moretheir online system, but it only showed me the option for 8 pm, and I wanted dinner at 7 pm, so I had to call the restaurant to do that. When I arrived, the staff was really friendly and accommodating to my English-only speech skills and even gave me an English menu. They had a special daily menu that included a veal roast... with a guy wheeling a cart around that served up the veal roast with mushroom sauce, carrots, and polenta. The decor was really nice and the food was beautifully presented and tasted delicious. I ordered the veggie salad, thinking it was a garden salad, but it was actually a yummy antipasto of cooked veggies, including pumpkin, artichokes, and slices of Parmesan cheese. To try something new, I got the pumpkin strudel as my main dish. It came in a lovely flaky pastry filled with ricotta cheese, and you could really taste the amaretto in the sauce. My friend got the meatballs with rosemary gravy and leek mashed potatoes. I tried one of the meatballs, and it was tender and juicy. Prices are typical for Zürich. Dinner for two, including starters, main dishes, shared bottle of water, and 4 glasses of red wine (French Syrah Cuvée 2008, Château Haut-Blanville, Côteaux du Languedoc) came out to CHF 125.

It's worth a trip to the outskirts of Zurich to visit Le Muh. Only five minutes from the train…read morestation, this restaurant is very cozy, and their menu has lots of great choices; all the menu offerings are very well priced as well. The service here is professional, friendly and attentive, and the restaurant's atmosphere is very welcoming. Bottom line: The food here is a delicious example of just how good Zurich's cuisine can be; the ingredients are all very high quality, and the service is 2nd to none - highly recommended!

I visited this restaurant fir dinner (alone, business trip)…read more I was very disapointed. I ordered a soup and a traditional Swiss dish called "Älpler Makkaroni". I didn' expext the Älpler Makkaroni to be as good as in the Swiss Alps (it's a traditional dish from the mountaineous regions of Switzerland) because we are in Zürich. In my opinion, the dish was very tasteless and looked as it comes out of the box (convenience). The price was over the top, 27 Swiss Franc. The soup was for sure not a convenience product but was tasteless nevertheless. I know Zürich is an expensive place, but in many restaurants you get at least good quality. Would I recomende restarant "Le Muh" in Swissotel Zürich Oerlikon: No definitively not. Save your money. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby.
