Fondue is all you can eat served with brad, potatoes and gherkins with optional additions (pear, tomato, onion, etc). Everything was excellent and the potatoes come in a cute bag to keep them warm. Hot take: potatoes are the best vehicle for fondue. Highly recommend for an easygoing meal with a view.

Amazing place! So…read moreyou've been to the "Melting Pot" in the States have you? Think you're a fan of fondue? You ain't seen nothing yet... the moment you approach this joint you're already impressed with its rustic "cabinesque" type exterior in an otherwise concrete city. Once you walk inside you're invaded by a delightful scent of cheese. The rustic interior with its wooden tables, a center fire place, and game heads and fur everywhere instantly tells you you're in the right place. You're then greeted by nice servers and a welcoming vibe. The rest? Awesome! Fantastic experience! Great food, a local Swiss beer and an awesome dessert to cap things off. You really need to add this place to your itinerary. If you don't, you'll be sad. Prost!

They used their space very well to allow a lot of customers. We got the traditional fondue with bread and a side of rosti with cheese. The fondue itself was wonderful but we are biased because it was our first one in Switzerland. The rosti was okay. It really would taste better without the extra cheese on there. Overall, if you're in the area, I highly suggest this place!!!

Knowing that we'd be tired after a long flight but would also want to maximize our limited time in Zürich, I did a Yelp search for Swiss food by map location and found Borni's Baizli in Oerlikon. I made a reservation using the online request form on their website and received a confirmation right away. When it became apparent that our flight would arrive late and that our dinner would be delayed by an hour, I again messaged the restaurant via their website. When we finally showed up, the friendly manager asked if I was the guy with the delayed flight. He seated us right away, no problem, in a nice windowside table. The two of us ordered the fondue (28f) as well as a mixed salad (greens with small stacks of fresh and pickled carrots, cucumbers, beets, radishes) and the more straightforward (and terrific) green salad. The salads were very fresh - and also enormous, but we are rabbits who enjoy our veggies. The fondue was tasty and you definitely could taste and feel the liquor on your tongue. It was so good and warm, accompanied by a big basket of cubed bread. The waiter was so committed to our enjoyment, he suggested that we not eat our salads first as he thought the fondue was at its best when it first hits the table. So, a little fondue, a little salad, a little more cheese...it was a lovely, leisurely meal. We didn't finish all of our fondue. It's just a lot more cheese than we're used to, though the manager/cook let us know that he made it a little larger than usual as he thought we'd be particularly hungry after our flight. We seemed to be the only tourists in the place that evening as everyone else spoke German with the waiter. Anyway, he fared just fine in English and they've got a helpful English menu available as well. Also, almost everyone else in the restaurant ordered one of the cordon bleu plates. The chicken looked really terrific and was so crisp that I could hear the cutlets crunch when they were cut into. I can only imagine that the cheesy goodness on the inside was perfect. I wished we'd ordered one of those, too, but it would have just been way too much food for us. An easy 15-minute ride by bus or S tram, Oerlikon (roll the r!) is a good-sized and diverse neighborhood that's midway between the city center and the airport. There were surely no tourists around here, which we just love. Borni's is not in a quaint historic building and has no view of a pretty rushing river. But prices for fondue and wine here are also a good 20-30% cheaper than the visitor-focused restaurants that we were also considering. Borni's Baizli offers pleasant service, good food, a very fairly priced meal, and a chance to see where real people live in Zürich. I'd return for sure. And next time, I'd be ordering some of that crunchy chicken for myself!

Yelp Review 2026 #85:…read more Day 2 in Zurich eating Swiss food. I made a reservation online and got seated right away before my 6pm reservation. The place was practically empty but by 6:15pm, everybody started coming in. We went at the right time! The tables are super close to each other. You can hear the conversations from other tables. So, if you get easily overstimulated/ claustrophobic, ask for a table outside. On the second day in Zürich, we were still feeling excited over Swiss food. And tapped out after this meal. Konigstuhl Fondue: Cheese Fondue "Königstuhl" (named after a town in Germany), four types of cheese with white wine, cherry liquor, garlic, and spices. It comes with bread and potatoes. In some places, you have to order potatoes separately. I found this harder to eat because of the sharp flavor and strong taste of alcohol compared to other fondues I've had in Switzerland. It's still good just not my favorite 3.5/5 Zürcher Geschnetzeltes: Sliced veal Zurich-Style, mushroom cream sauce, potato rosti. Tender meat with a nice creamy sauce. The Rosti was crunchy on the surface and softer in the middle. 4/5 The service was good. Our table had a view of what appeared to be a discreet strip club.
