Gasthof zum Löwen in Illnau-Effretikon

Well eaten, nice service, casual boss. We'd love to come back.

Great pub. Very communicative service. Traditional local food. Good selection of daily dishes. Prices are affordable for Switzerland. Selection of wines by glass or bottle. Spacious parking lot. I recommend

Simply great! Zurich Geschnetzeltes very tasty! Meat super tender! Really very good restaurant

We were there for lunch. Ate beef fillet (fried to perfection) with pepper sauce and cordon bleu (filled with a great, spicy cheese). The service is friendly and good. Will definitely eat here again.

Small and nice, nostalgic pub that is always worth a visit for us! See you soon, with incredible quality that cannot be easily matched 🍀

Very good restaurant with excellent service, the food was excellent and the portion was very large 😊

I was in the restaurant with my son. I ordered a sausage cheese salad garnish. Since I couldn't eat it all, I took the leftovers with me. The next day I had a terrible stomach ache and felt nauseous. My wife said that the sauce on the salad was no longer good at all. I went to work and a short time later I spent the morning in Uster Hospital in an emergency. So we definitely won't be eating at Löwen again. The fries were also very salty and my daughter didn't like them. Even the waiter told me that I wasn't the first guest to say that. The chef oversalted the fries........ The Löwen used to be the perfect restaurant with the food. But unfortunately not anymore. I had to take medication and couldn't go to work for 3 days. We immediately threw away the salad.

Despite many guests, the food came immediately, friendly service, great boss, highly recommended!

Food was good, fries were a bit soft. The service staff didn't dress very appropriately, in leggings and a T-shirt

My wife had the Coupe Denmark and I was craving something spicy. The half chicken in a basket for CHF 18.50 was really delicious. The spicy sauce is great. Where else can you get something fine for under 20 Stutz? Was really surprised...

Lunch menu large selection, food very good. Price performance is good, service is friendly, nice garden restaurant, pleasant drinks prices

Very good offer and friendly conditions

Nice restaurant with a large selection of food and drinks. Very friendly staff.

Sensational service and very tasty food. The homemade spaetzli is a real tip.

Super good food, friendly service

I've been coming back for 25 years. It's always delicious and the quality of the food always impresses me. The staff and the boss are also extremely attentive and friendly. That's why the restaurant is always full. I always make reservations. A good address, it's worth coming here.

Super great restaurant with incredibly fair prices and great service. The food is absolutely top from A-Z! I can warmly recommend it.

Very friendly and attentive service. Personally, I would offer smaller portions. The food tasted really great, it was just too big a portion.

Very friendly staff and very good food

Good restaurant with delicious food and great service.

We have been enjoying coming over for dinner for more than 3 years now. It's always just great and very tasty. The service is top and the employees are always extremely friendly and professional. Our daughter also always receives a very warm welcome. Thank you very much for the lovely family evenings in your restaurant. Best regards

Pleasant and local economy. Friendly service, good home-style food. Patron welcomes the guests.

Visiting the Lion is always great! The food is very good, the service is very friendly.

Very great service and very good food

Were there on Sunday. It was Wild Zyt and really, really good. Fast and good service. I can highly recommend the hunter toast!

Very good food, great selection. It's all ok

A reliable value for decades, home-style Swiss cuisine with generous portions at top prices. Young and comfortable. Best restaurant in the region.

Super friendly service and delicious food. For children there is an extra card and a lollipop to say goodbye. Always my pleasure.

Simply good and the service makes an effort, which is not easy at Voll Haus.

Cozy restaurant. Good for a meal in between

The waiter was alone for the entire terrace including the office. He worked up a sweat with our group of +21 people.

Hiking group 38 people green salad, schnitzel in herb sauce with homemade spaetzli and chocolate cream with pears. 👍

Great rösti eaten, nice service

nice rustic restaurant. nice staff and very fine cuisine. Thank you very much

Typical Swiss place... beautiful, plentiful dishes and very good quality - good price and very helpful and friendly staff. Advise

A good middle-class restaurant with delicious cuisine and friendly staff. I always enjoy coming here.

Very nice restaurant! The food tasted great and the portions were very generous. The staff was really friendly and the atmosphere was pretty nice, but of you sit outside it's right next to the road so it's a bit noisy. Limited parking, but I was there on a really busy evening.

Good food, nice service. Thank you for your commitment

Very nice garden restaurant. Food was also very good. Price-performance fits. Staff very friendly. I'll definitely eat there again

Home-style cuisine, large selection, large portions at a low price! Just as it should be in a “village club” ;-)

Good food served quickly at lunchtime

Always have a good evening with good food here!

The only place where quality meets quantity 👌🏻. I've been here three times and I've always been satisfied. Very good cuisine (also seasonal), very friendly service and large portions. Price-performance is also right. I recommend this!

Enjoyed wonderful food in the garden. Would love to come back.

Very fine dining restaurant. Inexpensive

Chicken in the Chörbli My grandmother was here for lunch. She ordered chicken at Chörbli. When it arrived it was bloody, then it was fried in the deep fryer. It was dry and she didn't want to eat it anymore and gave it back. Totally inedible. She still had to pay for it in full.....😒 Totally disappointed. Otherwise she was always happy.

Sensational horse fillet with asparagus. Highly Recommended! Anytime again 👍🏻

Real Swiss food with generous quantities. We would love to come back 👍😃

Service really very friendly. Chicken Cordon Bleu was just absolutely nothing... Even the cheese inside and the filling weren't good. Very unfortunate...

Rarely experienced, authentic friendliness from the boss and staff combined with an excellent and very rich meal. Thank you for the lovely Saturday lunch with son and daughter-in-law.

Excellent food, large portions, wide selection of food and wine, moderate prices. Looking forward to the next visit.

We were served by a very friendly waiter and the food was very good.

Thank you for the super nice service and the very good food. We'll be back and recommend it to anyone who likes to eat down-to-earth. Many greetings from Bern

The service is absolutely top class.

We had the lion steak with fries, it was very tasty. We'd love to come back.

Typical country inn with friendly staff and a huge menu

Friendly service, very good quality of food. I ordered a horse entrecote and the service employee asked me 'how hungry are you?' For a small additional charge I was able to order the larger portion (+5.-), sensational 👍 The children got their taste and the chicken nuggets we produced ourselves with crispy breading convinced them 😉 We enjoyed the cozy atmosphere. Many thanks to Nathalie and Urs💐

Friendly staff. Good value for money. Nice outdoor area. Enough parking spaces available.

A good restaurant for spontaneous as well as planned visits. It's worth calling in advance. Because it is always busy, even during the week. Home-style cooking with decent portions.

A nice atmosphere and friendly service staff. The food was tasty and the portion was good. Sensational “Flädlesuppe”. Excellent restaurant, can only be recommended. :-)

Rich selection, excellent cuisine. Very reasonable prices and quick and friendly service. Only recommended!

Recommended, good cuisine, perfect value for money, always happy to come back

We spontaneously went to eat at Löwen. The food was very good. The dessert (chocolate cake) was burnt because the microwave was set incorrectly. A new one was brought immediately.

Fine lunch menus for craftsmen at a fair price. Very attentive staff and harmonious atmosphere!

Very friendly and the guest is here 👑 Lion King

Nice restaurant with delicious cuisine

Friendly service and very fine food

Friendly service. Food - well - if spaghetti with raw ham + sage is on the menu, I don't expect a carbonara with 2 pieces of ham and 1 sage leaf. Rather little taste. Lunch menus on the website are not current.

The waitress is friendly and food are good 👍

It was a pleasure!! The food always tasted very good and the service was impeccable.

The only thing that reminds you of “Gasthof” is perhaps the ambience. And that shouldn't be a bad comment :) The service and especially the food are of a very high standard. Brilliant cuisine with a large selection of different dishes. Looking for a parking space (it may be that there are no free parking spaces left), but then you just sit back and enjoy. Many thanks to the whole team 💪

We always enjoy going there. Great food 😋 nice team, you feel like you're at home. keep it up 🥳

It was very tasty... and good portions...

Very good service, food super fine, staff extremely friendly and competent, price-performance ratio thumbs up

It's great that you never have to think about whether they're open or not because they're open every day. Nice big sandwich and generous portions in the evening too. Another pleasant place to eat. It is also positive that the prices have not changed so far.

Very good cuisine can only be recommended

The food is good home-style and seasonal dishes. Price performance matches. Keep it up

There are lots of good dishes at a fair price.

Good attendance, service tip top👍

Good food and service and very nice outdoors in summer

Yummy. Service was friendly and accommodating.

Despite the parallel wedding party and a full house, the food was excellent as usual. The service was nice and polite... Always my pleasure....

Very friendly staff. The food was great.

We were there today and it was just perfect. Even though there were a lot of people in the restaurant, we were served quickly and very friendly. The food was really excellent. The meat was fried to perfection, the fries were perfect, and the sauces too. Large portions, so unfortunately there was no room for dessert. But what was served around looked really huge and beautiful. The price-performance ratio is also right. Were here again today a year later just for an ice cream. The staff didn't have it under control at all and were unfriendly. We had to wait a long time for our cups.

We were there later on Saturday evening for dinner. There were game specialties. We had sliced ​​venison and deer möcki. Both were very tasty and we were very satisfied.

Good food, nice service, nice portions, price/performance ratio is right

We went here for dessert, it was good

Everything is just right... food, friendly staff and traditional, exquisite cuisine. Nobody goes home hungry. TOP

Super fine food, really beautiful garden terrace. Price is right too. Mega friendly service. Always happy to come back

Super nice hosts and great food.

Really great service. Food very good. Always worth a visit.

Great kitchen/staff and a nice terrace. Reservation is an advantage!

I decided to go there after 4 p.m. and was immediately offered a shady spot. The food was great, the service too. Thanks!

Very good food and extremely child-friendly. thank you for the great evening

I can highly recommend it, I really liked it and the staff was friendly and the boss was also very nice! I would love to come back😊

Had dinner with our family and were thrilled by the great hospitality and hosts. Excellent cuisine can only be recommended👍👍🤗🤗

Gasthaus Löwen deserves more than 5 stars. The food is great. The portions are generous. The service is top.

Very fine food and super friendly staff

Good CITIZEN just simply HONEST..... Grate. Beni

Mostly fully booked country inn. But if you find a spot, you can enjoy hearty cuisine. The service could be a little more attentive.
