A cozy restaurant with tasty dishes and attentive staff nearby the banks of the scenic Limmat River and Lake Zurich. Prices may seem a bit high but hey, this is Zurich! PS: If you're a non-smoker, opt for an inside table further away from the entry to avoid any lingering cigar, cigarette or vape scents.

I was there for a drink with some friends on a Saturday evening. The cocktails are phenomenal, only slightly above the average price for Zurich, and the service was friendly. However, the music was way too loud. You barely understood your own words. A little quieter jazz music would have suited the atmosphere better than the hits of the 80s and 90s. Because you can't dance anyway because of the lack of space. So the mood might be, how can I put it, a little less disco-like. But otherwise a very pleasant experience.

I had breakfast in a historical setting in a nice atmosphere. The taste was good and my plate was very sufficient. Since I went on a weekday morning, I could easily find a seat. I also thought of going to try the cocktail, but then I left saying "next time", I liked it, it is recommended to try it.

We went by chance with some friends during our holidays in June 2023 in Zurich and we repeat every day. The service was great from everyone and especially from John. The food was also very delicious. For sure, we will return! Totally recommended site!

Sunday evening I wanted to have a quick schlumi with my friends. I came in the door, I didn't even have the opportunity to finish my sentence, I wasn't even greeted when he said finished behind the bar, finish, finish. “Cest Le Ton quit fait la musique” I know that you want to finish work, I understand that, but you can still say hello and behave as a good host. A good host might have recommended another bar that was still open, but so unfriendly and unprofessional. I definitely won't go there again.

I like the Odeon. Friendly service, great atmosphere and great location. But a large beer for 10.50 is simply too expensive for me.

Had breakfast here with my family on 03-08-24. We asked for tap water since it is the best in Europe but was told we had to order bottled water. Server was not too strong in English. Kids also asked for tap water. Waiter came back with one large and two small bottles of water. I said we would share the large for $18CDN but he said that he could not “delete” the other two. We sent them back anyways. Food was tasty but very expensive with small servings. At the end the waiter said that he could delete the 2 waters. How could this suddenly be possible….because it was time to ask for a tip (not common in Switzerland) so I reluctantly have him 5CH and left. Total cost for breakfast was $180 CDN and we left hungry. Not coming back!

Since we were recommended to make a reservation, we did so a day in advance. We weren't really welcomed, but then we saw our reservation and just sat down. But we were served quickly at the table. But the employee wasn't flexible enough to accommodate the drinks and food at the same time. But don't worry, we had time. Was served very quickly. Very fine, fresh orange juice and good coffee. The Egg Royal was phenomenal, we would have loved to have another one. What bothered us a bit was that guests were turned away even though many tables were empty. Last but not least came the hammer, a very expensive bill. Which was worth it since not every breakfast we enjoy is that expensive. What I think is very positive is that the evening is only for ages 18 and up.

We were able to enjoy a delicious brunch at the Odeon, and I can highly recommend the Odeon Platter as it has a little bit of everything. The Café Bar has long since achieved cult status and continues to live up to it even after years in the gastronomy scene. Great service, friendly service, fine food and the great location are what define the Odeon. Recommended.

First of all, I would like to write that everything we ordered was delicious. The place is very atmospheric - the center of Zürich and decorated in a classic, old but elegant style. The service was very nice and spoke English. I especially recommend Apfelstrudel and classic espresso.

Staff is very friendly, she took lots of photos of us when we asked. Prices are high but it is also the heart of Zurich. Food and café ☕ great. Unfortunately there are a lot of snobby/arrogant Zurichers there, with a small child you are not welcome and you get dirty looks and unfortunately there was no high chair. We knew it wasn't ideal there, but we were tourists and had to decide spontaneously. You noticed that you were “disturbing”.

The ODEON is a home of the European intelligentsia. It is an orientation and lifestyle area far beyond Switzerland, even beyond the German-speaking area! A group of Zurich residents would have to work to ensure that it was restored to its old size, spatially. For me, every visit is a pleasure. Unfortunately, I'm not in Zurich too often. - The avocado tartar was the best of my life! (Well, it was the first one of my life) Still, I'm convinced I won't find a better one!
