Feels good to just have a beer and eat some tapas, particularly montaditos, those little pieces of bread with a lot of good stuff mounted on top.Come with friends, drink beer after beer, a very good selection, and enjoy those little tapas. Other things available as well that you do not share...

Haus zum Rueden

Reviewed By GeneseoSupremo

Wow, what a fantastic lunch along the Limmat River in Old Town Zurich! It started with fresh baked bread (delicious) and then I ordered the veal. Zurich Style he says is not breaded, and it’s in a rich mush team sauce that will force you to use the bread to get every drop off the plate. As I did. Wonderful.

La Pasta

Homemade pasta...

Reviewed By Oscar_Retriever

We picked this restaurant partly because of TripAdvisor reviews and partly because their website talked about slow, relaxing meals. That second part certainly did not happen. We arrived at 7:30 pm and completed. Meal complete with drinks, appetizer, and mains in an hour. The food was delicious and spot on in terms of flavor and quantity. However, before our appetizer was finished, our mains arrived without any apology for the poor timing. The service was brusque and rushed and we did not feel particularly welcome. So if the service was more welcoming and timed, this could have been a four star review. The eggplant parmigiana was very good. The ravioli filled with pumpkin and sausage tastedGood, but the cook neglected the sausage. We didn’t complain but this cost the other star. Dear Guest,We appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences with us. So sorry to hear that we did not meet your expectations. But please do not expect us like a 5 star Hotel. We are not high class Italian Restaurant, just a small, friendly restaurant famed for its home-made Pasta. Although we have not fully met your expectation, we hope to welcome you back, to convince you of the quality of the house and the team.Best regards,EnzoBest regards,Enzo

TREMONDI Restaurant & Bar

Reviewed By chooun14

The food was good, the reservation was smooth, but in general we were very underwhelmed and are puzzled by the fantastically high rating on tripadvisor, which is why we wanted to share a review. This is a restaurant that we would have found by the dozens in London or Singapore where we used to live. The food was fresh and it was very tasty, but the menu was very limited and we could actually not find anything we liked (Vitello Tonnato as the only meat option when there are at least 2 overpriced ravioli dishes, for example; and for fish only the raw tartar...all of this is way too taste-specific and there was non dish that would suit a more general palate. The menu changes every month, and it had changed on that particular day with the menu not available on the website...we actually saw other parties sit down and ask about items on the menu and leave again, but we decided to stay). Desert was also overpriced and not that great. We had a table outside, which was on the sidewalk with many people walking by very close to us (and given it is adjacent to Langstrasse, these people were sometimes not very pleasant or asking us for money). In general, this is a very expensive option for a night out, food is good, but we were looking for an anniversary dinner/special experience, which is clearly was not.Dear chooun14Thank you so much for your review. We apologize for the inconvenience regarding not timely updating of our menu on our webpage. Unfortunately there was a technical error with our server. However it‘s true that our menu is limited, but it changes completely every month and this is how our concept works. We serve seasonal dishes and for August we offer a light but a thoughtful menu. Additionally it’s important to tell you, that we work with vegetables and fruits from our own garden.In conclusion we want to mention, that in this district of the city different people roam around and we unfortunately don‘t have any influence on it.Thank you so much for coming and we hope that you visit us again, maybe in the winter months with dishes that you may prefer more.Kind RegardsJohnny

Ristorante Pizzeria Lilienthal

Reviewed By Anna P

This is a 3.5 rating, but I can't split circles unfortunately. We walked here for dinner while staying at nearby hotel during our recent trip to Zurich. We sat outside and the outdoor space was comfortable. We had gnocchi with gorgonzola and a pasta dish with chicken after enjoying an appetizer of bruschetta. The food was good, as was the service. Prices seem a bit high, even by Zurich standards. This place is worth a try if you are in the area.

The cabbie couldn't really find the place because it was not what he was really looking for, I believe. And my wife and I felt more or less the same way. But there it was; not very impressive on the outside, and the inside was only slightly better. But the service was marvelous and the food was superb. The wine list was pretty good, too, BUT -- like everything else in this wonderful old city -- EXPENSIVE. I'd still recommend it highly.Dear GuestWe are pleased to hear that we were able to convince you of our product and services despite initial difficulties.Thank you very much for your recommandation and for the dedicated time to write this feedback.We would be happy to welcome and spoil you again in the nearer future.In the meantime we wish you all the best.Best regardsAnita Ladner, Restaurationsleiterin

Reviewed By Ddoc100

This restaurant did everything right! Service was impeccable from the start to finish. After drinks and dinner were ordered, bread was served and some focaccia stuffed with prosciutto. After that we were surprised with some brochettes. We noted that all there pasta was homemade and from local ingredients and free range chicken eggs. There were eight of us and all of our meals were superb. When dinner was done another surprise came...limoncello for each of us! We had been on vacation for sixteen days and this was the best restaurant/meal that we had. Congratulations Ristorante Mercato.
