"Parking Space" Restaurants in Lucerne

In the Colonnade at the Mandarin Oriental, Art Nouveau splendour meets French fine dining. Artfully prepared classics or a tasting menu are served under high marble ceilings. The world-class wine list leaves nothing to be desired.

Right on the lake, Olivo serves Mediterranean cuisine with an Italian accent. Fish, pasta and antipasti become little holiday moments with a view of the water and mountains. An extensive wine list rounds off the experience - Lucerne can feel very southern here.

Shooting star Robert Steuri brings a breath of fresh air to the historic Maihöfli: his menus combine precise craftsmanship with a fine sense of flavours, whether classic or vegan. In the stylish old building, the cuisine is so innovative that the city of lights is taking notice in gastronomic terms.

Omakase culture gives the chef the power to decide on the composition of the menu. The exquisite multi-course meal is prepared in front of the guests using traditional techniques and takes you on a gastronomic journey to the Far East. The sake selection is superb!

Klingler's in Lucerne is a classic upscale Italian restaurant that places great value on quality. At the weekend, sushi is added to the menu - a bold second signature that brings variety without contradicting the philosophy of the establishment.

Everything is just right here: the view of the water and mountains as well as the Mediterranean cuisine with international accents, whether à la carte or as a three- to six-course menu. The creative creations are convincing in their entirety. The ambience is stylish and the service warm. Pure relaxation.

The new outlet is strategically located in the "Hotel Schweizer-hof". Anyone strolling through Lucerne, on foot or by car, will almost always pass one of the city's classiest hotels. The "Vico" is advertised on the website as a lifestyle brasserie, which is not to be taken too seriously. The atmosphere is elegant, the comfortably upholstered benches and stucco on the high ceiling are enticing, there are different table arrangements, the seating is wonderful and often with a view. If that's what is meant by lifestyle - here you go! Perhaps the way the restaurant's website highlights the names and visuals of the senior staff should also be understood as lifestyle: Claudia Alves Ribeiro, is hostess, Stefan Ritter is head chef. What is also advertised are the Bordeaux wines on the wine list. And indeed, there are quite a few on the wine list, as well as an unusual depth of vintage. Château Batailley from 2020 and 2015, Lafite-Rothschild many times over up to the mythical 1982 and many, many more. As far as prices are concerned, you can pick up a few bargains, especially with older bottles. And while we're on the subject of "cheap": The lunch menu is anything but expensive, and the à la carte offerings are also fairly priced. Especially as our lobster bisque contained succulent pieces of crustacean and the veal tartare was pleasantly seasoned with tête de moine, caramelized nuts and Pommery mustard; the crispy pieces of bread made us happy. The fact that the tiramisu then seemed a little harmless: no problem. Next time we'll have "Millefeuille de la Maison" and a glass of mature Sauternes to go with it.

Here you eat with a view that is hard to beat: Lucerne's old town, the lake and the Alps lie before you like a painting. Seasonal specialities alternate on the plates, sometimes from the region, sometimes from the Mediterranean, always finely balanced and carefully presented.

At Drei Könige, cosy Bruchquartier charm meets honest cuisine. Seasonal ingredients land fresh on the plate, accompanied by crusty bread and delicious desserts. If you like, you can round off the evening with a glass of wine from the small but fine menu.

Located directly on the River Reuss, this restaurant combines historical architecture and modern cuisine. The French-Mediterranean menu attracts locals and hotel guests alike. Wonderful grilled specialities and even a tasting menu are on offer.

Italian pasta and pizza cuisine at a high level: City diners love La Cucina in Pilatusstrasse for its homemade pasta, crispy pizza and varied wine selection. The room is lively, the service fast. A place for an uncomplicated evening.

Delicious classic cuisine is served in the historic ambience of the Burgerstube. There are dishes such as Châteaubriand, Wiener schnitzel and pike fillet as well as Mediterranean options. A highlight is the Lucerne chicken pâté, which is also available in a vegetarian version.

The Felsenegg welcomes you with its hidden garden and charmingly elegant parlour, in the heart of Lucerne and home-made and cosy. Mediterranean-inspired, fresh classics and seasonal delicacies characterise the menu. And a fine selection of wines to go with it - honestly cosy.

The Hermitage Lucerne provides a view of the lake and a cuisine that skilfully interprets classic dishes in a modern way. This is complemented by a well-stocked wine list for connoisseurs and explorers. Here you can enjoy relaxing hours in a stylish, contemporary setting by the water.

The beautiful manor villa overlooking the lake provides the ideal setting for a festive meal. There is classic cuisine with a modern twist. Fish from Lake Lucerne and vegetables and meat from local producers are used in the pans and on the grill.

At grottino1313, there's no need to worry about the menu - because there simply isn't one. Instead, bowls full of antipasti, pasta and co end up in tavolata style in the centre of the table. Lots of wood, candlelight and a crackling fireplace: Lucerne or Tuscany?

Brasserie à la parisienne at the Grand Hotel National Lucerne. Classics such as beef tartare, entrecôte and lobster rolls are the stars here, but ravioli are also on offer. For lunch, there is also the option of a two-course lunch for a small price.

The Moosmatt is a charming neighbourhood pub and restaurant. The focus is on seasonal dishes made from local ingredients. The classic tartare dishes are served with toasted sourdough bread on request. The garden terrace provides a summer feeling in the centre of the city.

Fans of Spanish cuisine have of course known Don Carlos for a long time. The tapas menu is just as popular as the different paella variations and the small wine bar offers a great selection of Spanish wines. The sun terrace gives you that holiday feeling.

Dania and Kamal Awada can hardly do without hummus. The homemade chickpea puree is the highlight of every Lebanese starter selection. But aubergines, sesame oil and bulgur also play important roles - not forgetting meat kebabs and shawarma.
