"When we got in the door we had to wait a bit, but after that we got a good seat. The service was friendly and helpful. We got bruschetta as an amuse bouche which made us very happy. The bottle of wine came a little early because we hadn't finished our aperitif drink yet. The food portions were generous. In terms of taste, we found the starter salad with mushrooms to be okay, although I think there were a bit too many hot mushrooms on the fresh lamb's lettuce. It just didn't look as tasty anymore and the salad underneath became soggy. The main courses were similarly carelessly garnished. My partner enjoyed the Saltimbocca. I had a stuffed veal schnitzel. The filling was with fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, capers and olives. Plus a cream sauce and rice. In my opinion, the taste didn't go together at all. A dish that I would not recommend to anyone. Sounds strange, doesn't it? I reported it back to the waitress. All in all it was a nice evening. We were served friendly and fed generously. From a culinary point of view, however, it was really a bit disappointing and a bit too expensive for the quality offered (approx. 190. ."

I've been coming there every now and then since 1985 and I still like it. Friendly service with humor, fine food and had a nice time with friends. Thanks to the team

Really long time to wait for a not so good food. Anyone that rates this restaurant with more than 1 star must have some taste problems and for sure a looooot of time

The menu included truffle in most dishes however the rest of the food was poorly prepared and overpriced. The wait staff wasn't particularly friendly and overall wouldn't go there again. View menu

We were there for lunch and we have a quick pizza... That was a bad decision. In the middle was thinner than a prosciutto pane. Never had such a pizza... We're not trying any other records.

we have ordered 2 times kalbsschnitzel a 29.- with pommes then the supplier has calculated still per person 7.20 for the pommes. this is a shamelessness, and eating was a tiny portion and not really good ....No one again

"I have been a regular customer at this restaurant for the last few months. It is a very homely restaurant with a reasonably nice design. The food is good but unfortunately there is little choice. The menu salad is always the same and the second menu is always risotto with chicken in different sauces, although the white risotto that is always available is very good and the chicken is sometimes over-fried. The ravioli are very good but rather a small portion. What I miss about the restaurant is the relationship with the guests. Although they are very friendly, they unfortunately lack the personal commitment that makes you feel comfortable and come back so that it becomes a part of my life. As far as the culinary is concerned, it is very limited, which I think is a shame because Italian cuisine would offer so many possibilities to surprise the guest with different dishes. But I also understand that you are limited in your choice of food due to the space. What I unfortunately miss is this personal commitment, which would be possible at this size of restaurant. I think it's a shame that there's no spaghetti. Go by and see for yourself. What I miss is the warmth that you should show your regular customers. Simply the personal conversation that defines the top restaurants in Zurich. Nevertheless, I wish the restaurant much success. Maybe my criticism will bring something positive. I definitely wish the restaurant much success."

"Ich war spontan am Freitag, 3. März, um 13.00 Uhr das erste mal in diesem Restaurant. Die Lage ist gerade wenn man mit dem Bus ankommt, etwas ab vom Schuss und in einem "Industrie-Gewerbe-Gebiet" gelegen was nicht so symphatisch ist. Dafür kann das Restaurant mit der Innen-Einrichtung im thailändischen Stil punkten obwohl der eine oder andere Element etwas kitschig und überladen wirkt. Räumlichkeit/Platzangebot ist so mittelmässig ausgerichtet. Beim Eintretten wurde ich von einer thailändischen Kellnerin wahr genommen ohne eine Begrüssung wie "Grüezi" sondern mit der direkten Frage "eine Person?" was recht unfreundlich, minimalstisch auf mich wirkte. Platziert wurde ich allein an einem riesengrossen Tisch was etwas seltsam war aber ok. Der Sofa war ja schön bequem. Und um diese Zeit war das Restaurant gut besucht. À la carte/Menü stand zu meiner Überraschung nicht zur Auswahl (erst am abend) sondern nur zwei Menüs! Das finde ich zu wenig, eingeschränkt. Nebst Fisch-Menü Sweet and Sour gab es Poulet mit rotem Curry und Reis dazu. Während des Wartens ging ich zur Toilette welche sich unpraktischerwise ausserhalb des Restaurants zwar im gleichen Gebäude befindet aber im zweiten Stock wo man immerhin mit dem Lift gehen kann. Nach zu langer Wartezeit, ca. 15/20 Minuten kam dann das Essen. Reis und Fleisch/Sauce wurden wie üblich separat serviert aber die Schüssel mit Fleisch war nicht über eine Kerze gelegt was Schade ist fürs Auge. Von der Wärme her genügte es aber auch so. Das Poulet war von der Konsistenz seltsam, wie mehlig und nicht so frisch irgendwie. Ich vermute es handelt es sich um ein minderwertigen Poulet aus Brasilien. Die rote Curry-Sauce, das Schlüssel-Element bei diesem Essen war geschmacklich enttäuschend, sprich ungewöhnlich pfad so das ich tatsächlich noch nachsalzen musste. Dies habe ich noch nie erlebt bei einem Thailänder. Der Jasminreis war ok aber zu kleine Portion (Hügelchen). Fleisch/Gemüse war von der Portion her gerade ok. Auf jeden Fall habe ich im Raum Zürich noch nie so einen schlechten Thai-Curry-Menü gegessen. Preislich mit 16 Franken ohne Getränk war es für ein Mittagmenü im Rahmen wenn man bedenkt wo sich dieses Restaurant befindet. Habe dem Personal den pfaden Geschmack erwähnt woraufhin diese Salz und Fischsauce gebracht haben damit ich retten konnte was noch zu retten war. Nach Begleichung der Rechnung war die Kellenerin wie in Luft aufgelöst und es gab keine Verabschiedung und auch kein "tut mir Leid" wenn es nicht so geschmeckt hat. Fazit auf Basis dieser Erfahrung: für mich ist dieses Restaurant höchstens ein Durchshnitts-Thailänder für Leute die mit diesem tiefen Niveau zufrieden sind bzw. nichts besseres kennen. ich war das erste und letzte mal dort. Und ich bin ja nicht so anspruschsvoll! In Zürich gibt genug andere, bessere Thai-Restaurants."
