My husband and I loved our seven course meal here! The dishes were so creative and satisfying, made with all local ingredients. They tasted fresh and were genuinely so enjoyable. A splurge at 120 CFH a person for seven courses but very worth it :)

Wenn es nach einer scheuen Begrüssung los geht mit „kennt ihr unser Konzept schon?“, geht bei mir vor allem dann der Laden runter, wenn die kuratierte Weinbegleitung mit zwei dieser verdammten Orange Wines beginnt. Nun. Die Erwartungshaltung bildete jetzt wenigstens eine solide Basis für die kulinarische Überraschung des Jahres: Konzept? In einem halben Satz erklärt (nur Dinge aus der Schweiz - konsequent). Orange Wines? Die zwei besten, die ich bisher hatte (würde und werde beide wieder trinken). Ergebnis? Ein perfekter Abend mit Horizonterweiterung und Wine Pairings von einem anderen Stern. Wer auch immer sich hier die entscheidenden Gedanken macht, ist feinfühlig und detailverliebt, aber auch einfach richtig talentiert und umtriebig. Das hinterlässt ein Gefühl, gut schweizerisch aufgehoben zu sein. Und das im ganzen Haus. Küche, Service (Züridütsch), Deko (vor allem im Bad) und Geschichte machen stolz, dass so ein Lokal existiert. Wenn ab sofort wieder einer fragt, wo man denn hingehen soll, zucke ich nicht mehr mit den Schultern. Und klar kann man in die Kronenhalle, den Zeughauskeller oder den Kropf - aber wer Lust hat auf eine etwas zeitgemässere Interpretation echter Swissness, geht hierhin und lässt sich beeindrucken. Gault&Millau hat‘s schon begriffen (15) - ich sehe nicht, was zum ersten Stern fehlt. Und eben: Wein. Für diese Pairings muss ein Orden her!

Very cute little restaurant with excellent service. The ingredients really are the star here, 100% regional and cooked with ingredients that would have been available pre-industrialisation. Most plates had a very nice acidity, but when making the ingredients the star you can‘t overpower spices. Hence, if you‘re used to international or spicy cuisine, this might not be the best fit for you. Wines are 100% from Switzerland as well, but don‘t expect that they‘ll compare to some wines of our neighbouring countries. If you‘re looking for „mainstream“ guide michelin experience this isn‘t for you, but we had an excellent evening‘
