Pavillon on Postcard

"A Stunning Glass Dining Room in a Landmark Hotel Baur au Lac, the grande dame of Bahnhofstrasse hotels open since 1844, is home to the city's most beautiful restaurant, with a stunning glass gazebo with Lalique chandeliers overlooking the hotel’s private park. Chef Laurent Eperon’s dishes are mostly contemporary takes rooted in French technique, though the menu has a special “Veau Suisse” section that includes a meltingly tender glazed veal knuckle that's been cooked overnight."

"Star architect Pierre-Yves Rochon designed this elegant restaurant and the almost 360° glazed rotunda with its country views is wonderful. The exquisite classic cuisine is prepared by Laurent Eperon and includes dishes such as roast sea bass with Périgord truffles." - The MICHELIN Guide

The space is warm and inviting, striking a balance between elegance and comfort. The food is exceptional—every dish prepared with precision, using high-quality ingredients that shine without unnecessary complexity What truly stood out was the service. The attentiveness of the staff is on another level—always present yet never intrusive, anticipating needs before they’re expressed. Every moment of the meal feels seamless, a reflection of their professionalism and genuine hospitality. The presentation, especially with the desserts, is just as impressive—elevated yet never overdone. A restaurant where both the food and service work in perfect harmony, making for an experience that stands out in every way.

Great french inspired cuisine in a sophisticated atmosphere. The service alone is worth the visit, everyone is extremely polite, friendly and professional. The 9 course tasting menu is worth trying, but beware the wine pairing: the wines are excellent, but don't order it unless you can drink a lot! The small chocolates at the end were incredible. Overall, it was the perfect place to celebrate!

I ended my trip to Switzerland with one of the finest at Pavilion. Located in the historical Baur au Lac Hotel on lake Zurich. This place is classy and swanky, may be a little flashy. Classic decor with a modern touch. High celiengs, big chandeliers, large windows, purple chairs and big colorful flowers bouquets elegantly welcome the guests & sets the mood to indulge in a Chef tasting menu with some modern twists and Swiss influences. Service here is professional and warm, staff was nice and attentive. Food courses were all on point, presented well and exceptionally tasty. Desserts were the cherry on the top and what you exactly expect from the French influenced cuisine. Wine pairing enhanced the flavors and heightened the experience. Overall, I left content and satisfied. Looking forward for another visit.

We were lucky enough to visit while the theme of the tasting menu was truffles: every dish had either a hint, a shape or was inspired by truffles. Everything was out of this world. By the end of the experience, we were full and extremely happy. The wine pairings were brilliant and we got explained each of them what we should expect and a little bit of details about the wine and why it’s paired that way. Everything was amazing, it is very pricy but it is worth as an experience. We were treated so well all of our evening.

We had our wedding anniversary dinner last night and true to all the reviews this was a 💯 fantastic experience. We've been to a few michelin star restaurants but this is quite simply THE best. We had nine course with wine pairing. Every single course was better than the next. In the future though we may have less wine as by the end of the night we got too giggly, a little bit loud and dizzy for our own good!! 😄😂 The service is also truly next level. The staff were incredibly attentive and consider things to make your experience better (even before you thought of it). This is Swiss hospitality at It's finest. One can never go wrong at Baur au lac. Compliments to the entire staff for making this experience wonderful. They are extremely professional and warm at the same time. We will be back! Thank you for making our anniversary special ❤

We came here for our anniversary dinner and it was everything we hoped it would be, and more. I wanted to know the difference between one star Michelin and two stars - and the differences are notable. The food is more elevated, more creative and delicious, and the wine pairings are perfection. We had the nine course menu with wine pairing - the price is worth every penny. Next time, though, we’ll choose less as it was quite a lot of food and drinking more than one bottle of wine per person was a bit much 😂 The staff pays so much attention to every detail and ensures your visit is special. Even when I went to the washroom, I was welcomed back and seated with a new napkin. Thank you for making our anniversary so special. We hope to come again soon.

A really hip place to hangout, nice summer terrace. Food is good. The staff are friendly but I had to wait for a long time for the wine (she forgot the order). Seems like they’re understaff. But really a nice place to meet friends and enjoy the summer weather under the shade of the trees.
