Jan 2026 * Solo I ate breakfast at Franzos. While the…read morescrambled eggs were passable and the bacon flabby, my review centers around its unfriendly service. I ordered hot tea, and used my teabag sparingly. When I asked for more hot water from a server, I was refused unless I paid for an additional tea again; it was against the rules she said. When I asked another server about it, he also said it was against the rules--but he would make an exception. I thanked him and he brought the hot water. The woman server then approached me and told me that I wasn't nice to ask another server. I told her that the restaurant's policy was unfriendly, that it didn't cater to a customer's reasonable wishes, and that it was good that the Zurich's custom was not to tip. I also told her that I would post a review of the restaurant and share my experience. Then the second server came back (the one who gave me more hot water) and asked if it was true that I would review the restaurant. I said yes--but only decided to do so when the first server told me I wasn't nice. Then he snatched my hot teacup away and showed me the door! There are too many places in Zurich to give your business; do not patronize this one. Leah (age 63)

This place is absolutely incredible! The waffle was delicious, and the Greek yogurt with fresh berries was silky smooth. The eggs were perfectly salted--I know it's just an egg, but it was so good.

If you ever find yourself in this area, please check them out, but be prepared to spend a bit because a good breakfast is worth it. It's the best meal of the day!

Our first stop once we landed in Zurich on our 1 week Switzerland trip. The restaurant is…read morerelatively small and when we came around 9 am on a Friday, it was pretty full so we opted to sit at the bar countertop. My brother got a bacon omelette which he was not particularly impressed with and said he could make the same quality at home. I got the hangover brekkie which consisted of a pile of potato wedges smothered in cheese, a fried egg, 2 slices of bacon, a sausage, and herb cream cheese. This.... was so incredibly heavy - I love potatoes but couldn't only eat half of it. Part of it is because the chef puts the entire plate into like the microwave/oven once everything is plated so the cheese hardens too quickly and the potato wedges were mouth burning hot the entire meal. Even 15 min in, I was burning my mouth on them. The sausage also had an unusual texture and taste to it, I guess I'm used to American sausages but it just did not fit my palette. Also cream cheese is a strange pairing with this dish, something like ranch would have been better. The only redeeming quality was the bacon was perfectly crisp. The cappuccino Dihei was just the boost of caffeine I needed but when I read orange zest as part of the ingredients, I was expecting like finely grated orange, not a thick slice of orange peel hanging off of the cup.

Once you're inside, you'll be greeted by a buffet and lots of lights. I discovered that this place is the oldest vegetarian restaurant in Zürich, which is amazing! We were only able to sample the food, and the kitchen was closed, so we decided to grab a few drinks instead. The drinks are a bit pricey, but they're definitely worth it. I had a passion fruit martini, and my husband had a Moscow mule, and both were fantastic. The restaurant offers a panoramic view of Central Zürich, and it's worth stopping by both day and night.

Imagine telling someone in the 1800s, one day people will voluntarily eat tofu and then proving them wrong for over a century. The buffet system is dangerous because you pile it high, weigh it, and dig in. Honestly a fantastic concept. Great location near the train station too, which is helpful because you may need immediate transportation after accidentally eating your body weight in all the options.
