Description

A place steeped in history and full of charm – from the hotel's pretty, individually designed guestrooms to the restaurant, in which old wood panelling exudes cosiness. In a pleasant and lively atmosphere, they serve good classic cuisine in the form of dishes such as sea bass with a lemon and caper butter, or Geschnetzeltes Kalbsfilet Zürcher Art (veal strips in a mushroom and cream sauce). At lunchtime, check out the additional daily specials for a quick meal. Tip: Don't forget to make a reservation, as they always get booked up!

Review summary

Kindli, located in Zurich's Old City, offers classic Swiss and French cuisine with an average rating of 4.5/5 from 80 reviews. Service is consistently praised for being professional, attentive, and friendly, with some guests noting exceptional treatment for pets. The atmosphere is elegant and comfortable, ideal for outdoor seating in warmer weather, though noise from the pedestrian zone can be an issue at night. Food quality is generally excellent, featuring a clear menu and extensive wine list. However, isolated complaints highlight pacing issues resulting in lukewarm mains and discrepancies in ingredient quality, such as farmed salmon labeled as wild. While prices are considered high, the overall experience remains refined and reliable for those seeking traditional dining.
