Spanish Restaurant · Kreis 1 · 13 tips and reviews
John Broks: A bar at street level serving great tappas (try the tortilla and/or the meat balls - 2 of my favourites along with a glass of Rioja). Spanish speaking waiters.
Vegan and Vegetarian Restaurant · City · 255 tips and reviews
John Broks: Never thought I'd say it but this is a superb Vegetarian restaurant. Help yourself to freshly prepared food from the buffet. I hate buffets but again this is really good, fresh tasting. Pay by weight.
John Broks: Perhaps not one for everyday but if you choose wisely then the price is affordable. I would really recommend this place. Small restaurant with great food.
John Broks: Traditional Swiss cuisine. Newly refurbished (summer 2012) retaining some original features creating a good atmosphere. Good service, good quality at reasonable prices.
Mediterranean Restaurant · City · 13 tips and reviews
John Broks: Make sure it's a special occasion when you visit. Restaurant attached to Hotel Bar au Lac. Very attentive service, superb food and wine. Watch out for the price of the wine. Place to be seen.
John Broks: Zurich seems to be full of places that have been converted. This used to be part of a brewery. They still brew the beer on site. Well stocked bar.
John Broks: Very traditional restaurant built on reclaimed land next to the lake. Ask for a spot in the Chagall Room. The sliced veal Kronenhalle style with roesti is the best in town - try it.
Modern European Restaurant · Escher Wyss · 30 tips and reviews
John Broks: Up and coming area of Zurich, the restaurant is in a glass box inside a converted ship building warehouse. Sophisticated food with a good atmosphere. A mixture of Swiss and Mediterranean cuisine.
Swiss Restaurant · Mühlebach · 11 tips and reviews
John Broks: Book well in advance - gets very busy. You'll experience a very different meal altogether. The restaurant is totally pitch black. Served skillfully by blind waiters/waitresses. Best enjoyed as a group
John Broks: Same owners as Chez Fritz, difficult to say which is better. I suggest you try both and decide yourself. Again, another great spot right on the lake.
Italian Restaurant · Wipkingen · 7 tips and reviews
John Broks: Great food & atmosphere. Tasteful decor. Modern Swiss cuisine.Homemade breads etc. Staff very helpful and friendly. Parking can be a bit tricky but with the help of the owner you should find a spot.
John Broks: As you enter you order @ the cash till, pick up your cutlery & find a spot to sit, then try and get a drink @ the bar while you wait for your food. Formica tables - like a student haunt. Has good Deli
Swiss Restaurant · Lindenhof · 283 tips and reviews
John Broks: If you want traditional food and you like your sausage this is the place to come, sausage by the metre. Sit in the old ammunitions factory alongside other guests on long long tables, lively, noisy.
Swiss Restaurant · Hottingen · 16 tips and reviews
John Broks: Stunning building, superb views over the lake and Zurich. We ate in the Garden Restaurant which had a limited menu but superb food. Well worth the visit for a special occasion and you want to impress.
Australian Restaurant · Albisrieden · 3 tips and reviews
John Broks: Not bad, easy to get to - last stop on the #3 Tram at Albisrieder. Run by an Australian - so Kangaroo steak on the menu. Really annoying website.
Lebanese Restaurant · Kreis 4 · 43 tips and reviews
John Broks: It was absolutely jam packed on both floors when I went. Good food, menu takes a bit of deciphering. I think one of the waitresses doubles up as a Belly Dancer - or was I just dreaming that?
John Broks: Was very quiet. The decor is really cool/trendy and the food is good quality Italian. Staff are friendly and owner very chatty. Location a bit odd, feels like you’re part of the shopping centre.
Italian Restaurant · Alt-Wiedikon · 4 tips and reviews
John Broks: Good quality with a themed menu - Pork, Seafood, Beef, ie, each course is based on the same meat. Overall thought it was good but a bit fancy in the way the food was prepared/served.
John Broks: Looks a bit odd from the outside but I would highly recommend this place, great food, great wines and friendly staff. Lots of Italians dining there too.
African Restaurant · Escher Wyss · 10 tips and reviews
John Broks: Casual friendly place - mainly burgers/chicken piri piri with of course things like Gnu steaks (felt a bit like TGI Fridays South African style). Good quality and not too expensive.
John Broks: Maybe not fine dining but the food and service was very good. American style with some English traditional dishes and good selection of beers.
