The food was excellent, I had pork stripes with mushroom cream sauce, accompanied with large cold beer to really feel in Zurich. The restaurant was getting a bit crowded by the time we were leaving, which is a good indication that the food was popular, and yet cozy enough to be comfortable. Definitely a good was to start my trip

Along the river, you'll find this cool chick local brewery serving some of the best brats and beer…read morecheese soup I've ever had. You can sit outside and watch the tourists walk by or across the Lucerne bridge or you can sit inside and enjoy the atmosphere. A full array of local beers are available to choose from as well as some of the creamiest beer cheese soup I've ever had. Of course who doesn't love a German brat served perfectly in a portion that can more than feed one person. Our service was great. Our atmosphere was fantastic and the food was more than enough. We're so glad we stopped in here for a bite of lunch on a super cold day.

Yea being across from the bridge a tourist trap with half of the customers sounding like tourist and the other spicing like local enjoying the good views and ambience. The poor waiter was so overworked and made for slow service and even slower food arrival is why - a star

Started with tomato and onion salad and it was nice. The true star, though, was the Wiener schnitzel. I desperately wanted authentic Wiener schnitzel before leaving Switzerland. This one was perfect. Two very thin veal cutlets, fried perfectly. It came with french fries that were also great. Thin and crispy (think ideal McDonalds). It's not cheap, but is anything in Switzerland, though the food and views are worth it. Highly recommended.

I'm becoming quite the aficionado of Bavarian food and had heard that I must try Kaiserschmarrn, a…read moredessert that was explained to me as being shredded pancakes with applesauce and raisins. Well, not one to ignore a new dish to try, I checked every restaurant in the area and decided the best ones would be here (or so I'd hoped). As a singleton, I got seated with a table that included a couple from Swabian area and a local gent that spends half his year in Spain. It was nice to have people to chat with and they were very patient with my German (as most Germans are). I ordered the Wiener schnitzel and an Augustin Dunkel to start. The beer was very good and the massive fresh schnitzel was equally so. I wasn't sure I'd have room for dessert, but as I was on a mission that I could not fail... I ordered the small potion of Kaiserschmarrn. It was still quite generous and it's times like these another dining partner would be helpful. They were little fluffy pillows of pancake, lightly dusted with powdered sugar with plump raisins in and around each pillow. There was a small dessert glad of homemade applesauce that was so thick. It reminded me of a good apple butter. There were also some pecans livers on the plate and in the applesauce.. I was very full and happily satisfied by the end of the meal. Service was excellent and swift. This is definitely one of the more traditional restaurants that you'll find here in the area and I highly recommend a meal here or at least, dessert.

The ourdoor seating was full, but Nicole welcomed us with a huge smile to a table inside. Andres met us inside and quickly served us our drinks and took our order.

Highly recommended!
