Sihlhalde
Classic Cuisine, Seasonal Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€
The journey to this idyllic little hamlet is well worth it, for Gregor Smolinsky has a special talent: his ability to strip things down to the bare essentials. The focus is squarely on the produce. His style of cooking is classic and clear-cut; nothing distracts from the superior quality of the ingredients. Take, for example, the thick and fleshy freshly caught John Dory, served with a grainy mustard sauce and Catalogna. Only a few components are used, and they are always brimming with intense flavours. Tip: Try the brasato ravioli or soufflé – they have almost cult status! It's no wonder that

Zum Pflugstein
Traditional Cuisine, Swiss · Bib
€€
Considered the largest erratic boulder in the canton of Zurich, the Pflugstein is located just above this distinguished half-timbered house dating from 1750 and lends its name to this idyllic restaurant 550m above sea level. The interior comprises an attractive wood-panelled space and a room with a fireplace; outside, the terrace beneath the boughs of plane trees comes into its own in the warm seasons. The service team overseen by the charming Jeannine Meili also deserves a mention. The kitchen prepares classic, regional and seasonal dishes made from fresh ingredients – à la carte or as a set m

Gasthaus Löwen
Classic Cuisine, Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€€
Dating back to the 16C, Löwen is a lovely traditional inn that has been run by Tanja and Franco Körperich since 2019. She takes care of the service in the charming and elegant wood-panelled dining space on the first floor, and Franco is at the helm in the kitchen. Diners sit at elegantly laid tables to savour a surprise menu comprising four to eight courses, with vegetarian options available if pre-ordered. Top-quality ingredients go into classic dishes that draw on modern and international influences. A shining example is the gently barbecued and mildly spiced king prawn, accompanied by light

Wöschi
Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€
This restaurant is located right on Wollishofen harbour and boasts a magnificent view of the "Zürisee", as the locals call Lake Zurich. The kitchen team, led by David Klocksin, serve up punchy dishes. The four- to five-course surprise menu reflects this with pleasingly pared-down yet full-bodied creations, such as the vegetarian baked cauliflower with curry and peanut. However, the more "conventional" options, such as the Valais pike-perch or Zurich beef, are just as delectable. A vegetarian version of the set menu is also available. Feel free to add wine or alcohol-free pairings. This is a tr

The Restaurant
Creative, Modern Cuisine · ★★ Michelin
€€€€
The Dolder Grand (formerly "Curhaus", dating back to 1899), one of the city's most exclusive hotels, boasts an idyllic location above Zurich, providing a magnificent setting for this chic and elegant fine dining restaurant. If possible, book a table near the window so you can savour the magnificent view while you eat. The huge glassed-in wine cabinet also draws the eye. Chef Heiko Nieder's elaborate and creative cooking is built on classical foundations but peppered with exotic Asian accents – think Breton lobster with green curry vinaigrette, avocado and herbs or "hot and sour" langoustine.

IGNIV Zürich by Andreas Caminada
Sharing, Modern Cuisine · ★★ Michelin
€€€€
Andreas Caminada is the man behind this fabulous venture in the Marktgasse Hotel, located in the heart of the historical district on the right bank of the River Limmat. The beautiful, classically styled bar (perfect for pre-dinner drinks) leads into the elegantly appointed restaurant, designed by Patricia Urquiola. The set menu is devised for sharing. Chef Daniel Zeindlhofer remains true to the IGNIV philosophy while incorporating his own ideas. The focus is on both his technical skill and the outstanding ingredients. The numerous small dishes are meticulously crafted without unnecessary embel

Widder Restaurant
french · ★★ Michelin
€€€€
In the chic fine dining restaurant of the luxurious Widder boutique hotel, chef Stefan Heilemann and his team skilfully bridge the gap between classic and modern, drawing on international influences. Thoughtful preparation and precise technique go into the elegant dishes. The set menu starts as it means to go on, with a veritable explosion of flavours, in the form of light bites such as a fluffy bao bun filled with pulled goulash and amuse-bouches including tender, delicately sweet Algarve prawns with a refined cauliflower foam and crispy frosted herb pearls. The culinary delight continues wit

Eden Kitchen & Bar
Italian, International · ★ Michelin
€€€€
"Brasserie Deluxe" is an apt description of this restaurant in the stylish hotel La Réserve Eden au Lac. The atmosphere is relaxed; the space is upscale and elegant – the focal point is the green-tiled open kitchen. The large windows overlooking the lake also deserve a mention. A highly professional team presents classic Italian, French and internationally influenced dishes. At the helm is Marco Ortolani, who has previously worked at La Trattoria Enrico Bartolini in Tuscany and with Alain Ducasse in London. His CV also includes time in Hong Kong. The house-made ravioli, for example, delivers b
