After a week in Europe, this is the only restaurant visited worthy of a five star review. The…read moreothers were not disasters but nothing worthy of a Yelp write up. Setting - Beautiful. I would say an authentic but modern Swiss restaurant. Obviously clean as almost all are but just very nicely decorated and has a sense of casual luxury. Food - The standout. The salad with egg and Rapeseed was perfect. The Zuri Gschnatzlets was very original and exactly as expected. The fish from lake Zurich (wonder if that is really true LOL) was very nice and the side of pasta and carrots were prepared without fault. Service - smiling. Wine - a lot. Photos - explain the rest.

There was immense variety in their selection of food and options for those who maybe vegan, vegetarian, gluten sensitive, etc! I ordered a salad and took bits and pieces from other meals around the table- all delicious! The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and the establishment was kept clean! Definitely give it a try if you are in the area:)

The restaurant owner was there and spoke with us about our meals. She is very engaged in the business and it shows. The place is trendy on the inside. Too bad we were there in winter while it was snowing. The restaurant overlooks the river and I am sure dining outside would be beautiful. We both had the special which was boar medallions. They spoke great English and made the experience great. I would highly recommend.

It teaches you a lot about yourself and how you respond to visual impairment. I used the survival skills I learned in school to locate my glass or picking up a fork in pitch black darkness. I chose the vegetarian option and the 3 courses were very flavorful and I was able to taste the food even more so in the dark. I felt like the dark made my sensory of my palate enhanced. Keep in mind everything in Zurich is extremely expensive. Wait I should say the upper echelon of the world! Anyways, you pay for the experience. This really changed my outlook in life and I have even more gratitude when I wake up everyday! I was very grateful for this unique experience!

I had the rabbit, with veggies and potato mash- the food was tip top, and I never broke a glass! The chocolate truffle tort was a tasty little sweet, and the Lazarus wine was a soft, fine treat. The wait staff are visually impaired, but kind, and the service is as good as any you'll find. All and all it was pricey, but it's for a good reason: try out Blindekuh- dine in the dark in any season!

I'd heard great things about this place from a friend who enjoyed the food so much they went 3…read moretimes in their stay in Zurich, forgoing their other restaurant plans. However, we were a bit disappointed in the taste of the food. We'd tried 2 other self-serve buffet-style plant-based places in Zurich and Lucerne and were very impressed, so maybe we went in with high expectations. The selection is smaller than the other restaurants we tried, and the dishes just didn't have my preferred textures and flavors. The dishes certainly seemed healthier since there was basically no fried food, but the protein they used (tofu, seitan, etc) didn't quite hit the spot. They only had a tiramisu for dessert which had a strange aftertaste. I think it is still a decent vegan option in Zurich, and prices were comparable. Maybe the experience depends on personal preferences, but I personally wouldn't feel like going again unless in a pinch. They do have a nice little store area with vegan products and a wonderful variety of gelato/sorbet flavors. I did really enjoy the passion fruit and stracciatella gelato! They had a new dragonfruit flavor that was good but tasted like cotton candy rather than dragon fruit. The staff were friendly, and the restaurant itself is beautiful and has plenty of seating!

Vegelateria is another vegetarian/vegan buffet option in Zurich. There are both an ample amount of…read moreoptions to choose from, as well as an ample space for small or larger groups. Being a buffet, the service is pretty minimal, but the team was helpful intro-ing my partner and I to the setup, as well as settling up at the end. While buffet meals tend to get a little blurry in my recollection, some of my favourite options in the trays were the indian style dishes, as well as the more fermented foods. If I hadn't filled up on the buffet, I would have really liked to try their gelato. If it's a warm day, leave room for dessert! As all places in Zurich, it is very pricey but if you've already had a couple meals elsewhere it perhaps won't be as much of a sticker shock.
