Antiquario da Marco in Zürich

The food is so-so. Starter good, main course mostly ok, desserts unfortunately not good on both visits. We decided to give the restaurant a second chance because it wasn't as convincing the first time and we heard good things. Unfortunately, service is very slow, even if we try hard. You are served by different people, it seems a bit unstructured. Tiramisu was too bitter for me, panna cotta had so much gelatin that it stuck between my teeth. In addition, the prices for the more normal dishes are very high.

My first visit after being diagnosed with celiac disease, it was a complete success. We were given very good advice, we were a large group at the Christmas party, which means the menus were ordered, despite all the stress they had due to the high capacity utilization, I got an “extra sausage” in everything and everything was tasty, including on The next day I don't have any stomach pain. Highly recommended, thank you very much 🤩

For us it has been the best restaurant in the city for years! Everything is just right here! The service is A1 and every guest is treated like royalty. You feel welcome like in a private home, the wide range of culinary offerings is consistently at the highest level and the selection of wines is second to none. The owner Marco always has personal wine recommendations that he imports himself and that you can hardly find anywhere else (ask Marco, not all of them are on the menu). The best proof of the exceptional quality and high standards of this restaurant are the regular guests who have been returning for years. The Antiquario is in a league of its own. Highly to recommend!

The food was good. The ambience was what you would want in a restaurant. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case when it came to service. We have never experienced such a listless/arrogant waiter. In a restaurant like this with these prices you definitely expect more. The least you could do is help the ladies put on their coats. We will not visit the restaurant again and do not recommend it. There are many other restaurants in ZH that would appreciate us as guests.

Friendly service, fine cuisine, a bit noisy, Italian....😁

Excellent place, lively atmosphere, wonderful food, truffles, interesting choice and menu and despite that they have wonderful wine, you can bring your own bottle along! For a small fee of course. But it is being poured in your glass and opened for you. Anytime again

Were invited to the 40th anniversary yesterday. Excellent food, the homemade triangles are a poem, nice service.

Very nice and manageable restaurant. The food was fabulous, as was the wine and the mother/daughter team gave us excellent advice. Lovely again! Interesting: There is a small terrace outside for smokers or in the summer for cigars :)

A brilliant evening was spent here with wines from Bindella and cigars from Davidoff. The food was also very good and the service was very friendly and accommodating.

Food was good, but spaghetti aglio olio with a little meat was 44 francs... plus a small portion. Good. But way too expensive

I received a “Poggio alle Vipere” from Sabrina: at over 90 years old, I have never drunk a better Merlot! Thanks again! With warm regards, Hans Ruedi Gadient, Zollikon

Very nice service and an excellent fillet steak. Pleasant audience.

Excellent cuisine, friendly staff and a great selection of Italian dishes! The triangles are particularly recommended.

A great family team that serves the guests perfectly. The food is of great quality. We always enjoy coming here.

There is no need for any photos. The food speaks for itself. The family-owned restaurant serves classical and specialities from Italy. Excellent service and delicious dishes.

Excellent, you just feel comfortable here.

My favourite restaurant in Zurich. Wonderful food and great service.

My favorite restaurant for several years. The quality is always excellent. The service is top and you feel at home.

Easily one of the best Italian restaurants in Zurich. The service is amazing and incredibly welcoming, and the food is simply incredibly delicious.

Ate very well. Great selection and super friendly staff. Boss Marco is great.

Good Italian, just not well located and few parking spaces. Service could smile a little more.

Service was super friendly, the food was amazing. 10/10

Owner has anger issues and quite some attitude and takes it out on guests who take it upon themselves to curiously inquire why the main course is taking so long to arrive. Bad service, sadly. Would be a nice place otherwise.

Owner/host very unfriendly! Given the prices you would expect better manners.

Super fine food! Best and most authentic Italian in Zurich. Very friendly and great service. Always my pleasure!!! Thank you

Unfortunately the food wasn't really good... and at high prices... unfortunately the presentation of the food didn't do justice to the price either

Extra fresh produce. Made to perfection. Sabrina really listened to my requests and delivered by really catering to my specific needs. Will go again!

Very good Italian cuisine. I enjoyed salad with mushrooms and ravioli.

For such a well-rated restaurant it was just a disappointment. For the main course I ordered Penne all' amatriciana. What came on the plate was more like penne in an onion sauce. There was no sign of the main ingredients of an Amatriciana. Neither pancetta, pecorino or pepperoncino. When I was clearing away I said that unfortunately the dish wasn't my thing because there were too many onions and because it wasn't Amatriciana. Surprisingly, the response to this feedback was very responsive and loud. "So then we won't charge for this dish (that wasn't my concern and I didn't want to). The boss has been cooking this dish like that for 23 years and it's good the way it is... Maybe so - but then a suitable name also needs to be on the menu. Penne with onion sauce.

Good Italian restaurant, food is really good, almost perfect, only the risotto was slightly overcooked but still very good. Wide wine selection. Kind staff, good service. The location is nothing special with the terrace completely closed in with a high hedge, which also hides a bit the entrance of the restaurant itself.

Delicious pasta and great service!

Brilliant mega super very very good!

The Antiquario is my absolute favorite restaurant! Everything is just perfect! The atmosphere, the service and of course the food! Top restaurant and definitely recommended!

Delicious food, seasonal and nice service…

First-class and genuine cuisine with a pleasant atmosphere and service. So again at any time

Had a great time at Antiquario da Marco. The food was very good: tasty and delicate. The appetizer with fried squid is to die for! Not giving 5 ⭐️ due to the wine: an Italian restaurant in Zurich could avoid serving Californian wine…

Apart from the fact that it was very loud, far too crowded and therefore uncomfortable in the small restaurant, we were deeply disappointed by the incredible unfriendliness of the host. After dinner we asked him about the meat declaration because we noticed that the beef comes from Australia, it couldn't have come from further away, and is hormonally treated. An absolute no-go for such an expensive restaurant. The host was so unfriendly and responded to our simple question about why the beef came from Australia with a snide "It's my restaurant and I run it the way I want!" and a "Beef from Switzerland costs 25% more and we don't want that." We replied that we had expected Swiss quality at such prices and he snapped at us: "Yes, then you probably expected it wrong". Like a toddler being insulted - and by a grown man. Quite apart from the fact that at prices of 50.- per main course (the six of us paid over 660-.) a few francs more for Swiss beef would certainly be tolerated by customers, it is an absolute indictment if a restaurant Owner becomes so rude to a simple question from customers. We have rarely experienced something so unpleasant and we will definitely never come back.

Best pasta in Zurich and centrally located. The pasta with veal and cream sauce is so good I became addicted and had to go into rehabilitation. I can now only try the pasta once a month.

Great restaurant. Marco is a friendly host with a great team. The food was also great. Recommended restaurant.

Top restaurant. Ate very well. The pasta was great. Nice wine list. And the service is over the top. This is gastronomy at its finest. I can only recommend.

You feel like you're in Italy. Super quality combined with very nice service. Good and very nicely furnished outdoor area!

The food was delicious! Was definitely hard to choose with their menu :) will have to come back to try more!

What Incredibly Good Food!! Thank you for the food and wine tips. We'd love to come back. 👍👍👍

Excellent food - good value for money. Will definitely come back!

October 2020 review: I usually check the Google reviews to choose a restaurant. My experience in Antiquario da Marco showed to my girlfriend and I that google reviews are not always reliable. To be honest, it has been a long time that we have not been welcomed this way in a restaurant. The waitress was annoyed and unpleasant (advice: if you don’t like hospitality, please change your job). Finally, a way to describe the food would be basic. It was not that tasty. Lack of flavors. They pretend to be a typical Italian restaurant but cookers are definitely not Italian (Pass by the open kitchen to go the bathroom and you will make your own conclusion...). To conclude : making our own Barilla pasta at home would have been definitely a better alternative. Finally, the worst way to end this diner was to get ripped off 10 CHF with the credit card payment, billing 190 CHF instead of 180 CHF by the supposedly « friendly » boss of the restaurant.

Willkommen bei Marco im Antqiario da Marco. Der wohl mit abstand authentischste Italiener der Stadt Zürich. Essen sensationell. Service Aufmerksam just in Time und immer ein lächeln im Gesicht. Ich komme wieder und wieder und wieder. Danke

Simply world class! I would happily recommend it to anyone...

aufmerksamer Service sehr nette Bedienung ausgezeichnetes Essen auch an andern Tischen Komplimente ich bekam das Dessert offeriert mit Wunderkerze da ich Geburtstag hatte.+++++ wir werden uns noch lange an dieses fabelhafte Essen erinnern wir kommen wieder!

Great food, and great wine, gladly again :)

Wer in Zürich gut essen will, muss ins Antiquario da Marco! Ehrliche Küche und heimisches Ambiente. 10 Sterne statt 5 Sterne!

Für Vegetarier nur bedingt geeignet, da man leider nicht jeden Mittag auf ein vegetarisches Menü zählen kann.

Weibliche, sehr magere Bedingung mässig freundlich. Weinpreise exorbitant. Trüffel musste extra bezahlt werden und überstieg Preis des Mahles- auf unser Erstaunen hin hiess es, das würde doch auf der Karte stehen. Trotz Corona enge Tischverteilung. Essen ok. Viel Möchte-gerne Publikum. Also nichts für uns....

Tolle Atmosphäre, sehr nette Bedienungund das Essen war himmlisch gut. Mein persönlicher Favorit waren das Bisonfilet und zum Dessert Toblerone Mouse :) Pluspunkt: das Restaurant hat am Sonntag offen! Vielen Dank an Marco und seine Mama, bis bald

Das Essen war nicht schlecht, aber eine Kellnerin von Service war sehr unfreundlich, auf die Bitte die Geschmacke von "Spezial Menu Ravioli (5 verschiedene Sorten) nochmals zu erwähnen, sagte sie, sie hätte sie schon vorher gesagt als sie die Speisekarte gebracht hat, das heisst 10 min. vorher ! Nicht gerade freundliche Bedienung!

Ordiniamo orecchiette ai cime di rapa e un filettoDi manzo con contorno di rape si presentano in entrambi i piatti con la bietola sminuzzata al posto della rapa.. uno sgarbo alla terra salentina e al palato italiano.. menù scadente.. PESSIMO.. provare per credere!!!

Wir haben online für Freitag Abend eine Reservation gemacht und diese eine Stunde vorher online korrekt annulliert, da unsere Tochter sich auf dem Heimweg übergeben hatte.Darauf hin ruf man mich an um mich zu informieren, dass man sowas nicht mache- eine Stunde zuvor eine Reservation absagen und man uns nun auf die Sperrliste gestellt habe.UNGLAUBLICH- vermutlich wäre ihnen lieber gewesen, wir wären gekommen und meine Tochter hätte über den Tisch gekotzt????Sowas ist uns noch NIE passiert. BIN sprachlos und entrüstet!!

(Traducido por Google) Cocina tradicional pero al más alto nivel. El ojo come y el paladar es feliz. (Original) Traditionelle Küche aber auf einem der höchstem Level. Das Auge isst mit und der Gaumen freut sich.

Not a bad place to be if you enjoy Italian food in the neighborhood. A very good wine list at reasonable prices is a good start. The food is good, but maybe not as refined and tasty as you would wish.

(Traducido por Google) decepcionado (Original) Entäuscht

Natürlich geht man vor allem des Essens wegen in ein Restaurant. Aber bei den hohen Preisen, die in Zürich an der Tagesordnung sind, darf man auch über den Tellerrand hinausschauen. Und wenn man das im Antiquario tut, dann sieht man: es ist edel und gut. So wie es sich für ein Restaurant, das preislich im hohen Segment ist, gehört.Das Essen: ob Minestrone, Kalbsbraten mit einem sehr guten Kartoffelstock, Spaghetti Bolognese oder eine leckere Vorspeise. Es sind Profis am Werk.Ein gutes Restaurant, nicht zentral gelegen, dafür aber mit guten Parkplätzen vor dem Haus. Erwähnen sollte man auch die Bedienung, aufmerksam und perfekt.

Wir waren dort Essen es ist wirklich sehr gut und sehr guter Service. Sehr gute Atmosphäre leider bei Vollbesetztung etwas laut. Raucher haben sogar eine Heizung auf der Terrasse inkl. Sehr schöne Sitzgelegenheit mit Schaf Fellen.Wir kommen wieder und sagen Danke

Real freshly made, excellent Pasta a great variety of fish, meat and other goodies. The service is very personal, observant and professional. Again again and again, one of the best in Zürich

(Traducido por Google) Muy buena calidad y gran servicio. Ambiente agradable en cualquier momento otra vez gracias (Original) Sehr gute Qualität und super Service schöne Atmosphäre jederzeit gerne wieder Danke

Der Service war okay, jedoch nicht so freundlich wie man es nach dem lesen einiger Bewertungen erwarten würde.. genau so war es beim Essen, es war gut, jedoch gibt es bessere Italiener in der Stadt. Die Preise sind gut.

Die Küche zaubert die unglaublichsten Köstlichkeiten aus dem Meer. Will nicht sagen, dass ich nur deswegen hierher komme, aber die geschmacklichen Gourmetkreationen lassen mich jedes Mal wieder aufs neue staunen. Hier wird aber nicht nur der Magen verwöhnt, sondern auch die Seele.

Am Wochenende wird dieses Lokal fast gestürmt. Also ich habe verstanden, warum das Restaurant so beliebt ist. Eine noch auserlesene Speisenqualität macht sich natürlich bezahlt. Beste italienische Küche mit viel Liebe, das mögen wir doch alle. Bis zum nächsten Mal.
