Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Irish was one of our wait staff team members, she did a fabulous job and was super helpful in recommending great entrees and wonderful drinks! Excellent job!"
"The best thing about this place is the atmosphere of old Zürich: a historic house with a beautifully preserved interior, lots of carved wood, and a very authentic, noble feel. The food is traditional Swiss cuisine, served in a friendly way. In our case it was just a business lunch, but it worked perfectly for that. A good choice if you are looking for a classic, representative setting for a meeting."
"Great location in front of in river so chill for outdoor tables. Staffs were friendly and attentive. The food tastes were fine(I expected more) and it’s a bit too salty. The vibe was great. Easy to find by google map. No reservation needed."
"The soup was very good, the Rösti with salmon was even better. The staff was very professional- not the overly zealous type, but attentive and polite. Good location on river bank."
"Lovely and fancy restaurant. We had a table reserved on the first floor, and it was overlooking the river. The service was extraordinary, and everyone was very nice. Their beef steak is one of the best that I have ever tried. The meat was so tasty, juicy, and flavourful, and it melted in the mouth. It was my birthday and at the end of our meal they gifted me with a birthday dessert with a candle I definitely recommend this restaurant. Wear something fancy"
"Excellent food. Excellent service. Excellent atmosphere. Traditional swiss dishes served in an elegant setting."
"We attended the recent Candlelight Concert by Fever at the Zunfthaus. The venue was magical and provided a really intimate setting. Felt like we were sitting in the middle of the musical experience. Highly recommended if it offered again here."
"Didn’t try the food, but the spot and service were excellent! Perfect place to stop for a couple of beers — great view and very polite staff. Would definitely come back."
