"Traditional Specialties Along the Limmatquai At this 18th century guild house along the Limmatquai, tourists huddle under blankets around outdoor tables indulging on “fondue à discrétion” (all-you-can-eat fondue). Meanwhile, locals dine upstairs on traditional specialties like the meaty Zurich “Ratsherrentopf” (Councillor’s pot) of beef, veal, pork and roast bacon served with carrots, peas and rösti in an atmospheric setting of carved pillars, coats of arms and oil paintings.

It’s an expensive tourist trap. “ all you can eat fondue “ is inaccurate. We only got a few gherkins and potatoes and couldn’t ask for more because Our waiter was nowhere to be found from the time he dropped the food until he came back with the check. So all we had was cheese covered bread . Then thanks to our waiter not coming back to take off the heat, the cheese burned in the bottom of the bowl so it wasn’t even edible. I wouldn’t go back and I wouldn’t recommend you eat here either.

Had the macaroni & beef w/apple sauce, and pumpkin soup. Pretty good dunkel and wheat beer as well. Great setting by the river! Service was good.

Nice place to eat and drink while watching people go by. Service and ambiance were good. We had pumpkin soup, sausage, and pork chops.

Great meals, serviceman's atmosphere. Was seated when it was cold and cloudy and not very busy but as soon as the sun came out around 2pm it got very busy. Thankfully I'd already ordered and started eating by then. Had a salad and traditional Swiss Rosti which was delicious but lots of food so decided to take it home for breakfast tomorrow.

This restaurant was highly recommended by our tour guide and absolutely did not disappoint. From the wonderful house vines, house salad and the famous Zurcher Geschnetzeltes mit knuspeiger Butterrosti, the food was simply mouth watering. Thanks to the excellent folks who run this restaurant

Lovely and fancy restaurant. We had a table reserved on the first floor, and it was overlooking the river. The service was extraordinary, and everyone was very nice. Their beef steak is one of the best that I have ever tried. The meat was so tasty, juicy, and flavourful, and it melted in the mouth. It was my birthday and at the end of our meal they gifted me with a birthday dessert with a candle 🎂 I definitely recommend this restaurant. Wear something fancy ✨️

Cannot recommend. Apart from the location nothing was nice here. I ate an overpriced quiche which I cannot recommend. The waiters didn’t understand the dishes on the menu and could not answer when we had questions about it. Also the bread was not fresh packed in plastic which is not very aesthetic overall (see picture attached)

I had hit wine, fondue, and a spectacular view. I sat outside on the terrace. It had snowed and I was comfy and warm. GO
