We came here with expectations a bit on the high side, this being an age old Zurich establishment and all! We had the Brunch at their Baur Brasserie which is what this review is mainly for. We tried their Eggs Benedict, Rosti with Broccoli, poached egg and hollandaise sauce, kids menu items like waffles and pasta, drinks like Bloody Mary, Cappuccino. Overall food was above average but again nothing to brag about or spectacular! Drinks were really good and so was the kids menu. Service left a bit to be desired even though serving staff were helpful and friendly. Ambience and decor was amazing which wasn’t surprising given that this is a classic age old establishment. Be aware there is no parking on premises so you will need to find parking on the street nearby and walk a bit to this restaurant. We celebrated our younger son’s 3rd birthday here and while everything was okay, we wouldn’t be coming here again just for the food or service, which like I mentioned were just okay and not great! They do also charge something called tellergeld which is a table charge for 10 CHF per person, and even for small kids. While I have seen this charge across many other European countries I have travelled to, its not very common in Switzerland, and especially not at places which are not supposed to be tourist traps, so again this was a surprise to us. Nothing wrong but again we weren’t expecting this. Premises and hotel are classic age old establishment and something unique to be experienced! In the summary, not a great brunch spot, many other better options exist in Zurich, but come here for the ambience and the old world charm, may be to stay or dine at their other Restaurant Margarita.

Had a wonderful dinner with extraordinary food and an esoecialy good sommelier. Try the Dover sole, even better than Le Bernardin! Slightly disappoint ling was the hardness of the rosti and the lack of ice cream in the profiteroles. Super nice people working there and pleasant atmosphere.
