the staff at alpenrose are the kindest people ever!! special shoutout to the waitress with the piercings, the waiter with the bart tattoo and the waiter who was also kind when i spilled my drink! the food was incredibly delicious, fresh, seasonal and local. the house wine was smooth, the recommendation of the mousse was top notch and i even got some special recommendations for things to see in zurich 💛 everyone should visit alpenrose for the welcoming service and high quality and thoughtful ingredients - definitely coming back next time i am in town!
Love this place. It’s a nice little place where the staffs are super friendly and the food are very nice. Our favorite dishes were the Alpenrose salad and the venison dish (unfortunately we didn’t have photos of them). The space were absolutely gorgeous, an old building that they preserved quite nicely. The long standing establishment shows in the culture of the people. We found out later that they were working closely with the “Arbeitskette project”, supposedly a project helping integration of community members.
Small and quaint place to grab a delicious meal. Everything from the service to the food was universally excellent. Easy to get to as well since it's located right by the #13 tram.
Recently enjoyed a wonderful dinner while on holiday. Dining room is very pretty and intimate feeling. Food was presented beautifully and tasted excellent. Waitstaff was supreme and hard working. This restaurant is doing great things!
I’ve looked up best restaurant in Zurich on Time Out and this place came out on suggestion. I didn’t manage to get a booking on a Friday evening so we tried our luck to walk in around 6pm. We were considered lucky to have dinner here as the place was filled around 8pm..!
Ambience- cozy and nice space with some traditional rustic vibes
Service- There are three waiters when we were there and all of them were not as attentive and being helpful with menus when we asked them question. Not sure if they don’t understand English at all or doesn’t want to…this affects our dining experience which was a bit disappointing.
Food- we’ve ordered the meat loaf and veal steak. Both were very homely made taste and flavourful which we enjoyed very much. I specially adore their spactzle! I would highly recommend to have it as sides. For starter we had the bone marrow beef soup and beef tartare- the soup was OK, don’t think there’s any wow factor in there but the beef tartare was amazing.
Overall this is the comfort food I had in Zurich and I really enjoyed the food. Hopefully service will improve next time that will makes it perfect :)
