Four of us came for a weeknight dinner. We shared two starter salads and ordered four pastas and…read morefour glasses of wine. The total for the dinner was 180 CHF. I cite this figure in order to give potential diners some idea of what a dinner at MASI will cost. (The price is actually more or less average for this area of Zürich; things don't come cheap in this town.) We spoke mostly English (and some German) to our server and had little problem with communication. Dinner was okay but we had more fun at Più, which is cheaper and more informal.

I have to say, we had a brilliant dinner at the Masi last Friday. The evening began with a very…read morefriendly welcome - as if we were visiting good friends or family. Italianità at its best. Then... dinner: Someone is putting a lot of love and care into their work in the kitchen. We had a buttery smooth and delicate tartar of beef with truffle shavings, which matched perfectly. Then I had pappardelle al ragù, with a beautifully flavourful sauce and obviously freshly-made pasta (cooked just right), and my wife had scampi on a risotto base. Both total conversation-stoppers, as we both concentrated on enjoying the dishes. The main was a fish dish for my wife (which she said was also excellent) and a fantastic tournedos-style beef fillet for me, cooked exactly as I asked.(which seldom happens). We both shared risotto which managed to hit the sweet spot between the individual grains still having a lovely texture and still be light and creamy, without feeling at all heavy. Damn - I wish my risotto would work out like that! Dessert was just a fabulous. I read Andrea's review (in German), and I have to say, things have changed. Andrea: Give Masi's another try. You won't be disappointed. I know I have a new favourite restaurant in Zurich. And Masi's has a new fan.

As soon as my husband and I walked in looking for a drink after our dinner, I felt a 'locals only' vibe and we got looks from everyone in the bar. It almost felt as if they had already closed, based on the look I was getting from the two women behind the bar, so I asked - they said they were closing at 10 pm (45 minutes later) and are no longer serving dinner. I told them we didn't need food, but asked if they had a menu for the wine, to which they looked at me like I was crazy and then pointed to 4 bottles sitting on the top of the bar with no prices, no description of the bottles they were poring. They also pointed to the wall as well. That was it - nothing else, no explanation further. Why on earth would I spend my money here? We immediately left and went to Drinx Bar up the street, with which we were very pleased. Such an awful representation of the kind service we've received elsewhere in Zurich.

5 stars?? Jaaaa, genau! Not only does this place have great…read morefood, but it also has the "cool factor." What is that, exactly? They are only open for lunch. They only serve water or wine. They only have two options each day. When you dine in, they ask you if you want a second serving...! When you dive out, the price goes down...! The price is much lower than the competition, (competition being every other random Italian restaurant in Zurich) and the interior decor has a rugged-chic feel. I love it. The first time I ate there I had a pasta with mushroom, beef, random veggies, and cream. It was nothing I would normally go for and it was uh-mazing. The second time I got my food to-go which cost me 3 francs less and it was a penne with bolognese. :) Bolognese is hands down my favorite food ever and this wasn't any different, absolutely amazing. I don't even know what else to say. Love it. Go try it. Boopideebapee! (that is the extent of my italian)

They have 4-5 tables outside of the restaurant (you don't have a nice view but it is still ok to be outside). We tried 6 tapas and I can't say that they were so special and unique but they were tasting OK and the portions were normal. Only the grilled shrimps were not that good, in our opinion they could put little sauce for the shrimps to soften them.

On Mondays they have guest chefs and a broader menu but always have almost a dozen classic Sicilian standards through the week. The kitchen status open quite late. We regularly come for dinner after 10, ebben 11 at night. The polpette al sugo is an explosion of flavour. Tender meatballs with flavours of raisin and thyme, four big ones will fill you, covered in a fresh tomato sauce. By far my favorite dish. Pasta and gnocchi also amazing. Salvia butter sauce or tomato. Ideal for couples or very small groups given the intimate setting.
