Description

This restaurant with its charming brasserie atmosphere is located in what was once the "butcher's quarter" – and in keeping with its history, the meat theme has been taken up here. Besides design features such as lamps and wall tiles, the open kitchen really draws the eye. They rear their own meat or source it from Swiss producers. Vegetarian alternatives are also available.

Review summary

Located in Zurich's Old Town within the Widder Hotel, AuGust specializes in sausages and meat dishes. Opinions on food quality are divided; while some praise the exquisite presentation and impressive wine list, others find the cuisine average and unmemorable. Service experiences vary significantly, ranging from friendly and attentive to cold or rude interactions. The atmosphere is described as cozy, lively, and international, though tables are closely spaced. Value is a point of contention, with several reviewers noting that prices are high relative to the quality offered. It suits travelers seeking traditional meat-centric bistro dining.

Best for

Suitable for travelers seeking traditional meat dishes who can accept higher pricing and compact seating.
