An elegant style and lots of finesse in the visual appearance are two of the main traits of the cuisine of Heiko Nieder, awarded with two Michelin stars and 19 points by Gault Millau. A very fair offer for lunch, with Nieder’s amuse-bouche menu in five courses, presents a journey through the different dishes available in the evening in small portions. The tasting menus with six or ten courses in the evening always compose some classic elements combined with a more modern style that you can also enjoy in a vegetarian version.

Best Medium-Sized List Switzerland, presented by Joseph Phelps 2026
Not long ago, Zurich welcomed another two-Michelin-star chef: Mitja Birlo. Entering his urban-chic restaurant, guests are led to a long, U-shaped counter which faces the kitchen in the middle.
