And the burritos don't have rice in them. The chips and salsas were great too. Pineapple sour beer was excellent also. Girlfriend loved the red cabbage, maybe a little anachronistic for Mexican, but tasty! Super cool ambiance with all kinds of Mexican images (heavy on the Frida khalo I'll say though). Service was fine, prices were fine by Swiss standards (about $30 USD for a burrito with red cabbage and chips or 3 tacos with no sides). A 750 ml pitcher of margaritas for $80 USD was a bridge too far though. ;)

The people working here are very friendly and attentive. The cocktails are fantastic. I was really impressed with them! And the jalapeño margarita is freaking spicy, but yummy. So, the food was good, but I wasn't completely blown away. We ordered the vegetarian tacos, and the stuffed poblano pepper with vegetarian filling. We came here with some good friends and they ordered the same, except with meat. Funnily enough, my husband accidentally got the poblano pepper with meat, and didn't realise it until he ate half and I had a taste. What an absolute goob... some "vegetarian". But I digress. I really appreciate how much care they give to their customers and I do love their cocktails. Their food is very expensive for what we ate. Yes, we only had vegetarian (sort of... haha) so maybe the meat options are a bit tastier. In the end, we had a lovely evening.

They offer a different menu but are just as tasty. 2. We were craving burritos but opted for tacos and quesadillas so we could try multiple meats, including carne asada, pollo asado, carnitas, al pastor, and camarones. We initially ordered 2 tacos and 2 quesadillas (on the smaller side) but everything was so good, we couldn't not order a round 2. 3. Prices here are a bit high, but it was worth it especially since we haven't had tacos and quesadillas in awhile. 4. Highly recommend!

One can pop out onto the patio for a bit of fresh air and/or a smoke, but only before the show starts. A friend of mine ordered a round of caipirinhas, and all I will say is don't order a caipirinha here if you've had one in Brazil, or, honestly, back in the States, but do order one if you really like the flavor of Rose's lime juice. Leaving the bar at 11pm provided a visual treat as we inadvertently stumbled onto the mini-red light district in full swing just around the corner. If I ever again make the claim that ZH is boring, then all I need do is find myself in the Kurzgasse and environs to be quickly dissuaded of the notion. Plus: gratis ear plugs for shows. Minus: bar top is a Bermuda Triangle for drinks. Tip: keep a tether on your glass.

There's an open patio for smokers or outdoorsy types. They actually have a couple of bites available, like chips and guacamole, I think, but never tried them.

So, when I was done doing my other errand, I popped in and was pleasantly surprised. I was immediately greeted warmly and asked if I needed any help. I told them that I'd just like to look around. The shop is split into the grocery side and the gift/decor side. I happened to be much more interested in the grocery side. It's small but it has a lot... a lot more than I'd found anywhere in Europe in the almost 9 years I've been here. Tomatillos (almost impossible to find in my searches)... fresh and canned, some good quality tequilas, hand/homemade goodies of all sorts. I bought some chips and tamales and I'm really looking forward to trying them. My wife is jealous that I got to go but she didn't... therefore, I know that we'll be back soon.

Has a funky vibe, so it's not purely for tourists. Flammkuchen Alpino: Love the backstory of this being invented by Germanic farmers in Alsace. It may look like a pizza, but it's no pizza, it's something uniquely of itself. Very thin dough, almost like a freshly baked cracker. Most pieces partially shatter in your mouth. A moderate amount of melted cheese covering the middle, so the edges are plain. A sparse amount of bacon and even fewer potato pieces. So delicate and delicious! Good for a light meal for one person if you want to save room for dessert. Apfelstrudel: Saw this the pastry counter and to get it. Firm cooked apple cubes in very nice seasonings. Wrapped in a very thin dough, almost like the thin flammkuchen dough. And the warm vanilla cream sauce is a must since it tastes amazing against the apfelstrudel.

Yelp Review 2026 #64:…read more I'm not vegetarian and definitely not vegan. But I will dabble with the veg from time to time. Hiltl is popular for being the world's oldest vegetarian restaurant in the world. Here's information I will share that I wish was available before planning to come here. You must make a reservation for lunch/ dinner because that's when they're busy. Breakfast is for walk-ins and they don't do reservations. Hop on their website and be sure you're on the right location because they have several within a 2-mile radius...some on the same street. I went here to try their breakfast buffet. I wasn't sure how busy they got for breakfast so, I got here at 6:30am because I got the wrong information online! They open at 7am. Different locations have different hours. Check their website for actual hours and don't trust review site information because it's wrong! They're not busy for breakfast at all. There's 2 ways to do their buffet. You can pay a fixed price and fill your plate multiple times or go and fill your plate once and pay based on the weight of your food - you get free bread. I did the pay-by-weight option. I have a whole day of eating planned so, I wasn't about to fill up for breakfast. When they opened at 7am, they were still putting the food out one by one. By 7:20, all the food was out which was fine. I was in no rush. The spread includes fresh fruits, cheeses, butter, margarine, cheesecake, chocolate mousse, mango mousse, mango chia pudding, banana chocolate brownie crumble, a pear dessert (with cream, vanilla and orange), rosti, scrambled eggs, potato salad, tomato and mozzarella salad, beets, chickpeas, olives, couscous, corn salad, olives, asparagus, green peas, feta cheese, hardboiled eggs, curry salad, dolmades, broccoli and edamame, artichoke salad, bulgur salad, tabbouleh, orecchiette tofu salad, Thai salad, hummus, guacamole, muhammara, etc. They have 6 types of bread. Slice a piece and toast it yourself. Vegan and vegetarian food tend to taste strongly of coconut/ coconut milk and I don't like that. My favorites from the buffet include chocolate mousse, mango mousse, banana chocolate brownie crumble, dolmades, asparagus, orecchiette tofu salad, and Thai salad. I got a mango lassi to drink which I didn't like. It had curry powder. Service was pleasant. The restaurant was clean.

Fries were hot and also fresh, the shaker of table seasoning was nice (possibly old bay). This is one of the better and least pretentious meals I've had all week including a McD burger that had a nasty red pepper yogurt dressing for 15 CHF. PJ's is much better and fresher than an Applebee's. I didn't try the ribs so I can't compare to a Chilis. I would say the food is closer to a Red Robin for quality and taste. Portions are generous as well. Like everything else about Zurich it's expensive for what you get.

The restaurant was nearly empty and they tried to sit us in a a two-seater so crammed in to the next one, we had to ask to be reseated. The second one was only slightly better. I ordered pulled pork tacos, which came with fries, and my husband ordered the cheeseburger and fries. He deemed the burger mediocre and enjoyed the fries. My three pork tacos looked great. The flour soft shells were fresh, the pulled pork was tasty but COLD. I had a glass of decent Pino Grigio. My husband had tap water. Our waiter never came back to check on us. We walked up to the bar to ask for our bill. The guys said, Thanks, have a good day." I said, "We need to pay." Our bill was $60!" Suffice it to say we were disappointed. Don't bother!
