"Sunday Opening" Restaurants in Canton Zurich
With a view of the rooftops of the Limmat city, chef Stefan Jäckel beguiles with classic dishes with a sophisticated twist. His great love of the sea is infectious and is reflected in the menu, but local ingredients such as in-house city honey also find their place.
Thomas Huber is the 13th generation to host the Krone Sihlbrugg, with Monika Jans for 16 years. In the kitchen, Huber combines tradition and modernity, mostly cooking with local produce and often in the wood-fired oven. In the wine cellar, there are great tipples to go with it!
Baur's combines classic elegance with refined cuisine: tradition and innovation in harmony. The menu offers classic brasserie dishes as well as creative vegetarian and vegan reinterpretations. Timeless excellence for connoisseurs.
At Bianchi, the fish is always fresh - no wonder, since the fishmonger behind it is Bianchi, who runs the restaurant together with Bindella. In the elegant restaurant on the Limmat, Italian Lucio Paiano cooks top-class Mediterranean fish cuisine.
Where Zurich's lakeside meets gastronomic sophistication. A paradise for gourmets, where first-class cuisine merges with the picturesque Alpine panorama. Pleasurable hours on the shores of Lake Zurich - in the garden of the top hotel, gastronomic delight becomes an art form.
In the Gourmet-Stübli at Wirtshaus zum Wiberg, garden and meadow cuisine has been celebrated at the highest level for over 20 years. A visit is especially recommended during the game season, when the cuisine in the former hayloft is at its best.
At Gül, the friendly crew creates authentic Turkish cuisine. Indispensable: always order at least two Lahmacun for brunch and dinner. Tempting in summer: the idyllic garden terrace in the inner courtyard with midnight gelati from Tellhof.
In the former manor house, the Landgasthof Hirschen, seasonal, regional country cuisine is celebrated in a magnificent timber-framed building. Whether it be tender cut beef loin, refined fish creations or down-to-earth desserts, enjoyment is a top priority here.
Zurich's Kronenhalle with its accompanying world-class bar is an absolute cult address. For 100 years, friends, artists and business people have been coming and going here to enjoy the absolute classics of upscale Swiss cuisine.
This restaurant on the Adlisberg is a popular destination. With a beautiful view, you can enjoy Zürich specialties, seasonal delicacies and meat from the hot stone. The "Puurezmorge" made from local products, which is always available on Sunday mornings in the Kuhstall, is also great.
The Blau in the Hotel Greulich sees itself as a neighbourhood restaurant. But that does not mean that the cooking is not elaborate. Here, only the best ingredients go into the cooking pot, whether for breakfast, lunch, aperitif or dinner, where a modern, creative seasonal cuisine is served.
The Bürgli in Wollishofen is an institution. The robust house was built in 1864, and Regula Gloor Belide and Catharina Joss have been running the restaurant since 2003. A colourful cuisine made from fresh produce is served on the terrace with a far-reaching view, and in the beautiful guest room.
A classic among Zurich restaurants is the Conti. The Italian dishes here are prepared in the traditional way with great effort. Special highlights are the spaghetti all'astice with large pieces of lobster and the ravioli with roast stuffing.
Rosaly's offers uncomplicated fine dining in the middle of the city. From traditional Swiss dishes to Mediterranean delicacies, there is something to suit every guest. The wine cellar is also special and contains many exciting Swiss labels.
Saltz offers unusual design and all-day dining. The décor was designed by artist Rolf Sachs and, in contrast, Julian Mai cooks no-frills urban dishes using mainly regional ingredients, sometimes spiced up with luxury products.
Even if the view clearly proves that you are in Zurich, you sometimes feel like you are in Italy at Sonnenberg. Luigi Serpe's kitchen team serves excellently prepared specialties from the "bel paese," accompanied by fine Italian wines.
The restaurant in the historic Riegelhaus above Meilen serves classic French-inspired cuisine with accents from around the world. The menu always features freshly caught fish from Lake Zurich. The wine list offers fine wines from Switzerland and the surrounding area.
The trip to the Ziegelhütte is well worth it. You can reach it from Zurich in no time at all, but it still feels like you're in the country. Here you'll find down-to-earth cuisine made from local produce with lots of vegetables and meat from the neighbour, and a surprising wine list.
