Beautiful place hidden behind a small lane within 3 minutes walk from Paradeplatz. The terrace is a haven of peace amidst Zen of urban civilization Zurich. Too bad it is so overused finally say rather staid by me and the service just "Stinkard". The decor with soft lighting and seating is very relaxing. Food side, it spoils a bit, it's... More

One of the most luxurious and stylish restaurants in Zurich to be. Food is excellent and the place is also good for drinks and after hours drinking sessions for Wine and Champagne

very good restaurant for business, enough space, several parts of the restaurants take down the noise level. The food is excellent and there is something on the menue for everybody. it can be a little too hip at times, but in general it is enjoyable; the winelist is very good altough markups are very generous to the restaurant owner. Still,... More
