Stopped by for lunch... A beautiful interior and great place for a drink, be it coffee or booze…read more The food is haute niveau. Very good. I almost ordered the beef tartar until I saw the tagesmenü which included veal tartar, fries and a kohlrabi soup. This was my first tartar of veal. Normally, it wouldn't make much sense since veal is so mild but it was infused with truffle oil which made for a silky-rich delight and with crispy fries and a small salad to the side, it was awesome. A nice cocktail menu and a couple of decent local beers put it on my list of classy bars for an after work tipple. Service was unfriendly, but what else is new. It's a little pricey, but the food and drink made it justifiable.

Superb restaurant in the outskirts of the medieval city of Zurich, within easy walking distance…read morefrom the center of town and also a post-dinner walk or a short tram ride after indulging in some of the best Swiss food I've ever had anywhere. Entering the restaurant, on the ground floor of the hotel that bears its name, there is an ambiance of distinction and class, amidst the paneled walls and wonderful staircase. The service is without par, and the dinner selections are varied enough to satiate any palate. We came over and after a wonderful plate of several goat cheeses, we indulged in a wonderful dinner of Wienerschnitzel of veal and Tagliata of Argentinean filet of beef with succulent vegetables. Washed it down with a wonderful Merlot. We were more than full to have dessert, but had just enough space for an amazing espresso. Helvetia is one of the "must see" places to dine in Zurich. Loved it!

Another fantastic lunch at Bindella. Sorry Antonio had the day off. Maybe we will see him in the…read morefall. We arrived early for our reservation and the restaurant was packed. They had one table for two and they graciously seated us. We ordered the Risotto alla Cicoria con Gamberoni and the Scaloppine di Vitello al Limone con Tagliatelle. The risotto was as good as previous times we have ordered it. Only difference this visit is that we opted for the full course and glad we did. Of course I couldn't come here without ordering the rosemary oven roasted potatoes which were kindly substituted for the tagliatelle. Rosemary potatoes are excellent in that lemon sauce. Nothing was left. Both members of the Clean Plate Club. Not hard to do wwhen the food is so very good. Service was excellent. Never rushed and the restaurant was totaly full during our visit. We learned that reservations for lunch are almost essential. Love they hustle and bustle of the place. Can't wait to return in September...Maybe Antonio will be working.

We wandered over and saw plenty of open tables, however most were reserved. Initally they said we would have a 2 hour wait (no thanks) but another lady said we could be seated now but only had 2 hours. Being American, that's plenty of time for dinner. Servers were very nice and we were not rushed. The soup, zuppa di pomodoro was delicious. I had the vitello scaloppine al limon which finely sliced and the tenderest veal I ever had. Wife had the linguine all venez which she loved. A great dining experience, especially since we had no reservations. Would definitely come back and next time make reservations. btw - we finished in a little over an hour ;-).

It didn't look like much, but we left well-fed and happy. One thing to complain about was the Gyros tacos. The meet didn't taste good, and I missed some crunchiness I usually experience with Gyros. The sauce made somewhat up to it, but not really.

Stumbled upon here when the original pasta place we wanted to try turned us away because it was…read morecompletely booked with reservations. Space itself is relatively small and I felt like the tables were a little too close together. Brother's taglioni was expected to be pretty rich due to the truffle but it was actually very bland and the noodles seemed too firm like they were undercooked. Very underwhelming fish. I got a wild boar bolognese which definitely made up for the taglioni - meat was tender and seasoned well, and noodles were cooked to perfection. Tuna tartare was classic and tasted fresh, nothing too incredibly exciting. Zucchini flan with truffle was not quite the consistency I expected and honestly didn't taste anything like zucchini OR flan but surprisingly the dish worked well together.

I was not disappointed, as the staff seemed helpful and the food was great. The service is what I remember the most in that they were very hospitable. Give them a try and enjoy!!! I would go back if I'm ever back in Zurich.
