Unless you don't mind eating outside in the dark with all the smokers. Second....expect to wait a long time. This isn't a fast food restaurant so grab a beer and wait 45/60 min to get your food. Third... Switzerland is very expensive so this restaurant is no different. 2 burgers, 2 alcoholic drinks, and French fries were 98CHF which is pretty much 100 bucks. They have 3 sauces for you to try. Ketchup- Tasted like marinara sauce. BBQ- Tasted like smokey ketchup. 1000 island. Tasted normal. Burgers were great. They were juicy and delicious. Animal Style French Fries were a good try. Def not like the original but so far from home it was a nice find. This restaurant isn't for Americans. Way too expensive for what we eat all the time but I compare this place to the Melting Pot in the US. That place is so overpriced but it's amazing to get your cheese fondue fix. I can't imagine Swiss people coming to the US and eating at our expensive version of cheese fondue. Service was ok. It was super busy so can't really complain but I could tell our waiter was super annoyed with our audacity of showing up , with no reservation, and willingness to wait. And for some dumb reason you can't order "The Threesome" (or Hattrick) with a group of 5 people. 4 apparently is ok but we had 5. Cannot imagine why if 3 people order the same thing it's an inconvenience for the restaurant but DON'T DO IT or again your waiter will show his annoyance.

I'm so glad we did because we met the owner and he was very kind and hospitable. He told us he would make the best American burgers for the Americans-haha! He definitely followed through with that promise. Zurich is lucky to have such an amazing burger joint and I'm happy to say this place has grade A American burgers! Skip McDonalds and go out of your way to come here!!

James Joyce boasts having the "best" burger in town (it's not) and our local friend recommended the place more for drinks, but we chose this anyway since its within walking distance from Widder bar where we came from. The menu reads like a dependable Irish pub fare, but with Zurich prices. GAH! I feel destitute in Zurich. Prices of 25CHF and up for an entree is typical. Fish n chips were deliciously crispy; while the burger has decent moist MMMeat. Alas, the cheese was dried out and burnt on the edges. (I mean, how does one manage to burn cheese?!) Sit outside if the weather permits, because the setting is really inviting with tea light candles and fresh flowers on the table. A glass of Lillet Blanc and a Guiness on tap are excellent end of the night drinks. The friendly service warrants the 4th star, but you should go somewhere else for the best burger in town.

The hotel had been slated for demolition and the bank that was building a place to entertain its out of town clients bought the wood paneling and decorations and shipped it all over to Zurich--crazy! I read about this place in my guide book and it was also recommended by my Zurich resident friend so I had to check it out. From the outside you'd never be able to tell what the interior holds; it has a quite a modern-looking patio and is on a well-heeled side street off the main shipping drag, Bonhofstrasse. It looks like it could be any other upscale bar until you walk inside: lots of dark gleaming yet well-worn wood, intricate tile work, and period paintings. You can take it all in as you sip the beverage of your choice. We weren't hungry enough to sample their food, but from what I could see on the other tables it looked pretty damn good. The bartender was very nice and friendly and the whole place just felt very comfortable. Well worth a visit.

I can't complain about the food and for that alone I would give 5 stars because it's hard to find a good steak around here, but a restaurant is much more than that. And the outside is very appealing as a Texas type of steakhouse. But the inside and service wasn't the best. To start our server made us feel bad because we wanted an appetizer after ordering our meal and said, "oh now I'll have to start the whole order over and delete everything" ... well we didn't see how that was our problem? Yet she made us feel somewhat uncomfortable for simply ordering food, which you do at a restaurant. Secondly, I ordered onion rings with my steak, which is traditional in the U.S., and she made a snarky comment saying that's a weird combination because they are fried... well so are French fries ? So why the comment? All in all food was great, but server just didn't know how to communicate positively. I won't bash the restaurant for one worker though so I'll still give 4 stars. Inside ambiance was also nice, but still more a Swiss restaurant, with the only American beer being miller. (No Texas beers) I still recommend for the food, but watch which server you get.
