4.2 / 5.0(1,216 reviews)
Everything is perfect and the service personnel are all very nice. The restaurant-made mustard is amazing and matches all dishes. Cream spinach is fresh and not greasy at all. This is the most memorable restaurant for Switzerland food in Zurich. Overall great experience. I learned about August through the Michelin guide and wanted to try it myself. Overall the service was excellent. I had the salad, rosti with the mushroom and beef stew which is Swiss classic. I loved the Swiss wine (forgot the name). Special mention about the bread which was delicious! I finished my meal with an espresso and the dessert Mille feuille. The vibe was also great- watching the chefs cook and everyone enjoy their meal. I would return! Meat was excellent but I would say the cuisine is good but not exceptional (reason why I put 4). The waiters were doing a great job. Restaurant looks nice too. I really recommend it.

Turned dinner into a wine and food tasting experience! Rychard, our server, was superb in making recommendations and providing excellent service. Started with a mixed salad and a glass of German Riesling, then a veal and pork sausage with Swiss Merlot, and Zurcher Gesschnetzeltes and a side of roesti with a Swiss Pinot Noir! Ended with mocha and stracciatella gelato! The place has a really friendly, intimate vibe, and we had an amazing overall experience. So glad we picked this restaurant for our only night in Zurich!
