I was walking near my hotel and ran into this awesome little Chinese restaurant. I didn't want a big meal, only a bit of dim sum. I and my companion walked in and were seated immediately. I asked for dim sum and was immediately served some of the best Chinese appetizers I've had! Needless to say, I had just returned from San Francisco the month before and this small place in Lucerne, blem them away! I quickly ordered another plate full of dim sum. It was so wonderful. I told the husband and wife team how impressed I was at the meal and thanked them for the care they put into preparing it. This place is easy to find. I am attaching a pic of the card that I took from the restaurant. They deserve to have more exposure since their meals are awesome! I NEVER expected to love a Chinese restaurant in Switzerland but it was awesome.

I ordered a noodle dish for my sister and spicy chicken to go. I asked them to separate the noodles from the soup because I didn't want it to get soggy on my walk back to the hotel. They charged 50 cent extras for an extra container to put the soup. The chicken was way too soft. The fish was very saucy which caused it to spill all over on my rice. It didn't have much taste either and barely any heat. My sister said her noodles extremely bland as well.

#1 Yelp rated Chinese restaurant in Lucerne -of course there is only 3 Chinese restaurants listed…read morein Yelp in this Swiss city. Place specializes in spicy hot noodle soups. However, it was in the 80s, and I wasn't about to eat soup on a hot day. Our CHF22 chicken dish came with spicy chili chicken, with ear mushrooms and rice. As in most Swiss restaurant, dish comes with rice, but only half a small bowl for the two of us. The chicken was fresh and fell off the bone, using a chopstick in each hand to peel off. Excellent dish, but could use more white rice. Seven steamed shrimp dumplings came with our CHF18 shrimp dumpling dish. Standard presentation in a steamed bamboo pot, with the shrimp tasty and not rubbery. Had to pay CHF4, or $4.28, for two glasses of tap water. Will remember next time to bring my own water to guzzle down prior to stepping into a restaurant in Switzerland. Authentic Chinese food served here. How do I know it's authentic? Any time they serve meat dishes with the bones still in them, in a sauce, it's authentic, as Americans don't want to mess around with bones in sauces. Also, only Chinese eating here.

It's a small place than can accommodate about 24-seats. Base on my US Thai experience, I would say the food is very authentic; just by looking at the ladies cooking in the kitchen. They remind me of my grandparents. The food is not Spicy Hot, but they give you a variety of sauce to spicy it up to your liking. Although the gentlemen did come abruptly and did seem condescending, it is a personality of an individual in a foreign place. Some people are not as fluid in their communication as others and therefore try to say the right words is not as simple. I would give it a try with an open mind

We gave this place a chance since it was close to our hotel and they advertised ~11 franc noodles. On the menu there was no noodle option even on the separate menu we asked for and ended up paying 19 francs for lukewarm noodles. The broth was just soy sauce and water and the beef was boiled in at least 500 degree temperature because I couldn't even chew through it. Please listen to everyone and don't go here unless you enjoy inedible food.

Yelp Review 2026 #44:…read more We came to Prik Thai because of multiple factors: it was close to our hotel, we wanted food with flavor, it's highly rated on all review websites, and it had been raining all day. I saw pictures of their Pad Thai and it looked the same as the Pad Thai I would eat in Bangkok. So, I knew what I was going to get even before getting here. We walked past this restaurant several times to/from the hotel and there's always a lot of people. It just has to be good. The restaurant is small with maybe 10 tables. To see the menu and place your order, scan the QR code. Our server brought us our drinks and she asked us if we placed our food order and we had to show her what we ordered. A few minutes later, our food arrived. But we didn't have plates. We asked for plates and the server seemed confused. We were too. Are we supposed to eat straight from the plate the food came in on?!? Chicken Pad Thai: Looked legit. Piping hot. I cut the egg-wrapped pad Thai in half to let the steam out. It had red onions which changed the flavor. This was a cross between pad see ew and pad Thai. It had a smokey/ barbecue-esque flavor to it. The portion was massive - it can be shared by 2 people. Did not finish. 2/5 Spring Rolls: It comes with 3 per order. Piping hot as well. Very oily. All I could taste was oil. Did not finish. 2/5 We waited over 30 minutes after we gave up eating to get our check so we could leave. But all the employees took their dinner break all at the same time. We had to walk to the counter so somebody could acknowledge us. Our server, who was still chewing, asked us if we wanted our leftovers to-go. It wasn't good when it was still hot and fresh. It certainly won't be good cold. My hair and my clothes smelled like cooking oil after.

I was going through…read morerice and Thai food withdrawals while traveling in Switzerland and, in our search, for a place to eat, we stumbled into Prik Thai--and what a find. My husband speaks Thai so that was good but the server spoke some English. We ordered Pad Thai (we usually steer clear of it in the states because they make it too sweet in most Thai restaurants but the server convinced my husband), Massaman curry, chicken and vegetables stir fry, papaya salad, and drunken noodles. Everything was delicious and what we expected, except for the drunken noodles--they were completely different to what we were used to but still very good. I am very glad that the server convinced my husband to get the Pad Thai because it was amazing. My favorite, however, was the Massaman curry; combined with the rice, it was absolute heaven. I was happy. The food is great, prices are very good, and service is quick and friendly. Our family was in their very happy place and ready to explore more of Luzern.
