L'Age d'Or in Genève

Top server and an intact childhood memory 😉

One of a kind pizza, a treat!!!

I love this place! For me, it is a mythical place linked to my youth and very good memories. In all these years, nothing has changed and that feels good! Their pizzas are always just as good, their salads too, not to mention their iced coffee! If you are looking for large, thin pizzas, no this is not where you should come. But come and try it all the same and I bet you'll come back to it :)

Unmissable pizza place. The pizzas are unique. They are not very big but very good. The dough is filled with Swiss cheese. We always find a table, the service is friendly and efficient. I adore

Good restaurant close to the station with very good cuisine and a successful decoration.

Excellent place and very friendly waiters!

Quantity too small, prices too high

Very bad experience, the restaurateur is allowed to say thank you miss. Very poorly behaved restaurant. I do not recommend it at all.

Bad service without any knowledge of English and very small amount of food compared to its price

Still the best pizza in Geneva for over 50 years. Traditional ham format, my favorite

Really nice We will come back Very pleasant welcome, we always eat there with pleasure

The pizzas are special, because they are made with thick dough, but really excellent. The cheese also has more flavor than traditional mozarella and that changes us. The homemade pasta menu is also very good, served with a nice green salad. The pizzas are really cheap. The restaurant is also well located, very close to the Cornavin station. It was a pleasant surprise to discover this original restaurant and a great experience. It's a shame that I don't often have the opportunity to go to Geneva.

Very good, every time, mention: excellent to Patrick, David and Christian.

Good pizza but not traditional thicker dough but so good with super raw ham, delicious

Pizza are more like the Chicago style deep dish pizza with a very thick dough. But fast food quality. Ingredients on top do not meet the quality standards of the place. Service is weird the guy is quite familiar with clients.

Delicious qnd unique Pizza in Geneva since 1955. However, issue is they close very early and stop serving, almost by 21.45 des pite the fact last order should bebtaken by 22.30 pm. Clarification is required as to what time exactly last order is taken and what time customers must be out of the door. The time of ordering and closure is very random and vague. Otherwise, a superb, kind, professional and experienced team.

It's too tight between the tables, no privacy and the service is not very professional

Friendly enough, pizzas came in smaller sizes which was useful but not Italian pizzas as we know them. We had a salad nicoise without anchovies which was disappointing as it was loaded with capers and so much dressing that the lettuce was soggy. Not enjoyable. Difficulty in getting served with a second drink but in fairness they were busy.

Like always. Gluttony. For 35 years I have been going to this pizzeria without any regrets, I don't understand why there are people who say nonsense about the pizzas. Or are restaurateurs or bad people...

When I order a pizza I expect a pizza not a biscuit, extremely small. The dough wasn’t cooked, and the topping very sloppy. One of the worst pizza’s I’ve ever had!!

I was a fan of this restaurant until it changed ownership, very bad reception from the Albanian mother who screamed at us to tell us to close the door even though we hadn't even come home yet.. a big weirdo who shouldn't not receive customers but lock yourself in a cellar. This woman is pitiful!

The Pizza was great and the prices are also really good.

Very nice restaurant. The focaccia dough is excellent, the portion is sufficient. It must be understood that in 1955, pizzas in Geneva were not very well known, hence the confusion between a pizza and a focaccia. They chose focaccia dough, which in my opinion is far superior. I think it was easier to call it "Pizza" because it's more known around the world, and they were right. The proof is that it’s always full. So, people who criticize the size of their pizzas should do their research, because they will not be able to eat a focaccia like the one served in this restaurant, the size of a traditional pizza.

Time passes but it is always with pleasure that I go

Absolute secret tip The Jambon cru pizza is awesome!

Pizza? The Golden Age is the unmissable place in Geneva. Nowhere else will you eat one like this. Do not hesitate. I'm 62 years old, my parents were already going there. Nothing has changed.

Cozy spot for a pizza dinner. The menu isn't huge but there's a good selection of toppings you can add to customise your pizza. Well made and the small size is great for one. Super quick service and very reasonable prices.

I have been eating at L'Age d'Or for more than 30 years about once a year at each of my annual visit to Geneva (except last few years during covid). This last visit was probably the worst, service was amazingly rude (both of the servers on the patio) and the parma ham pizza, which I am eating as mentioned for 30 years, was ...off. I could not put a finger on what went wrong but it is not what it used to be. The ham is the same, I think the tomato sauce is the same, the dough was a bit different maybe and probably the cheese as well. They are very tiny deep dish pizza, you normally need 2 for a full meal. Far away from a real neapolitan pizza but unique in their own genre and I crave them each time I am in Geneva. I will be back hoping the off-taste was a one-off, as there is no other reason to go there. Last time I was there in 2019, service was cold as expected in Geneva, but this time it was bothersome. It is a pity because these pizzas are good, normally, unique for sure, and the setting is very nice. Service has always been famously cold but this time it was bad.

The general impression is wonderful everything..

A good surprise, very close to the station, not a very big menu, but quantity is better than quantity The pasta with pesto sauce and the one with mushroom sauce (boletus) are very good and hearty and served with a large salad. The server was very friendly and professional. The boss, I think it was him, was much drier….

Microscopic pizza for a sparrow's appetite charged 20 francs and arrived cold (1 hour late). Ashamed.

Great professional service, super traditional, this dough wow is something.....1st pizzeria in Geneva probably not for nothing.

Coolest pizzeria!!! The pizza is simply incredible in taste, I recommend it!

I love this pizza, different from the others

A pizzeria that reminds me of my childhood

Having been going there regularly for over 40 years, I think I know what I'm talking about. Please understand before reading the rest: We don't come in our golden years to eat the pizza that we find in all the Geneva pizzerias 1. The service has not changed, the longevity of the servers attests to this. And for me, service is the No. 1 criterion. 2. The pizettes have been identical since 1955, still not made over a wood fire, still of a size significantly smaller than the usual pizzas (which is why old people who hate waste return there alone after losing their spouse). You will never find an identical pizza, it is a recipe that is old and which has made it unique and successful. 3. Are you in a hurry? That’s good, because here we don’t wait. We welcome you quickly and we serve you quickly. 4. The decor is in its period style with its statues of black servants (poorly viewed today) but I love it

We are Genevans by birth but have never tried the golden age before! We returned by chance after 9:00 p.m., very hungry. Given the welcome, we thought about turning around and then finally we ignored the palpable tension to concentrate on this rare moment of eating alone. What was our surprise when we saw our pizzas arrive. If you don't look a little bit you'll think it's a joke! It's actually the size of a traditional wood-fired pizza. They are therefore no bigger than your hand but I must admit that they were delicious! Just the right amount of contour, hot, melted cheese, not 3 tonnes of tomato sauce as we are used to seeing and good raw ham for my part. We each had a second one which makes a good ticket for a pizza outing but the quality was there, we didn't have any more room for dessert.

Truly an exceptional server, many should take an example from this man. Really great.

Very disappointed by this so-called "mythical" pizzeria. I order a Coca-Cola zero, I am served a Sinalco Cola which does not have the same taste, without first informing the customer. The pizzas are very small. The menu stipulates 2 choices: "new pizza" or "traditional pizza", without clear details on the menu for the customer. There were 3 of us at tables, we ordered 2 traditional ones (smaller according to the server) and 1 new one (the larger one). When the pizzas arrive, the diameter between the small and the large is almost the same, except for the price of course. The dough is soft and the pizza is average. For dessert, I ordered a pineapple (certain that I was going to be served a 1/4 of a fresh pineapple, as I am used to) and there, surprise, a cup of 2 slices of canned pineapple in a syrup, like in the canteen. My husband had a chocolate pear, the pear also taken out of the can with an industrial chocolate cream on top. There were 3 of us at the table for a bill of 90.-frs and we left hungry. Frankly, this pizzeria is a great scam, very disappointing!!!

The pizzas are smaller than usual but that suits a lot of people. The place is original and is located on several floors. Non-stop cooking, also very practical!

To flee! Tiny pizzas, no mozarella but emmenthal, very low-end products on top. Very expensive price on the other hand for the product and the quantity served. The spritz contained as almost as water. Go to a real pizzeria!

Quite a warm welcome and accommodating given the number of us there. Friendly setting. And very well located: train station/theater. But the pizzas are small (like: for children). And the very simplistic salad. Too bad the frame doesn't match the contents of the plate. And even more unfortunate that we cannot give a completely correct opinion without an inappropriate response. Professionalism is just as important here through a few words as within the establishment!

I have always loved this restaurant. The waiters are always pleasant, the food is unchanged.

The worst pizzeria I have ever been to, scam on the size of the pizzas, not big enough for a child so imagine for an adult

Haughty and unsympathetic boss. No hello, tight face. Poor welcome and more than average cuisine. I won't come back again...

What was my surprise when I discovered my pizza: a Piccolini! Normally I eat several because they are really small but given the prices I settled for just one.

Very good historic pizza. To discover.

Very good, warm atmosphere, fast service, friendly staff

Super good small traditional pizzas and served very quickly, atmosphere and original decoration.

Impeccable service and reception, the waiter very friendly, the pizza good, 🙏

Very irregular, sometimes excellent pizza dough and sometimes very average! Bad salad dressing but they apparently still don't get it! All my friends say the same thing! Nice staff….

The food is good with fair prices. The restaurant owner looks angry, but she's just friendly. I loved

Excellent homemade pizza, very good size, good service and fast, recommended

Excellent original pizzas! The dough is super fluffy! Very warm welcome by the waiter, efficient and friendly.

Good place to eat in Geneva. Nice place, well located and dishes with very good quality-price ratio.

Very small pizzas...the one I choose is legendary and also known as the white wolf. So nice

It's the first pizzeria in Geneva, the pizza has nothing to do with a standard Italian pizza. You should expect a small but very hearty pizza that looks like a cheese crust.

As usual, the pizzas were excellent and despite the absence of staff the waiter was efficient and extremely kind.

I came 20 years ago thanks to friends from Switzerland 🇨🇭. The memory of Pizzas from the Golden Age, an unforgettable treat for my taste buds. Coming from France 🇫🇷 seeing our friends each time I talked about the Pizzas of the Golden Age. But what a regret to have waited so long to come back. Last night after a show we went back there. And there, my taste buds were delighted again. In addition the waiter who took care of us, super pleasant and kind. In addition a little digestive offered and a little dessert the best of the house 😉 to share... So I highly recommend l'Age dOr, and what's more a house founded since 1955. I wouldn't wait 20 years this time to come back...

Magnificent pizza, the servers always very friendly. I recommend.

Convincing and theatrical waiter 😂with his bluff pizzas 🤣 Ridiculous pizza. To avoid😜

Mmmm... I love l’Age d’Or pizzas!

Great pizza servers always good customers who are a little elderly..

I went to eat with a friend last night. The meal was excellent as usual. We were served by David, a great waiter who kept a smile throughout the evening! Thanks to him for his energy and efficiency

The Golden Age is an institution with its very special atmosphere! The pizzas are certainly not huge and fortunately so because they are very well stocked, soft with lots of melted cheese. For a little extra I always add an egg on top. You have to ask for them well cooked because the dough is thick but say not burnt please! Then for very big eaters the very advantageous price allows you to possibly order a second one. But with a good country salad accompanied by crispy garlic bread you will get your money's worth. The servers are adorable, you just have to be patient and respectful, which is not the case for everyone! We have been going there regularly for many years and we always return with as much pleasure.

Impeccable service and old-world setting!

I love the little homemade pizzas, the cozy setting, the comfort of the benches, the friendly service.

Always a real joy! The service is fast and the pizzas are still good for so long. Highly recommended for a little hunger which ends with a lot of pleasure.

The coffee is very good here age de.or the menu at 40 francs is very good the crosant is very good here age de.dor I am Adrián puente Willy I will come with my Mother you were very good at age d or thank you very much to the age Golden

The oldest pizzeria in Geneva and the best. They have their own trademark pizza. Quick and friendly service. Please visit and request Menu du midi

Best pizzaria in Geneva, with the know-how of a family and an establishment dating from the first 👌🏻 a stone's throw from the station. Go ahead, lunch menu 👌🏻

After reservation accepted at 9:30 p.m., knowing that the kitchen closed at 10 p.m. with our understanding we arrived 10 minutes late following a search for a parking space (in the city center & yes...) The reception was very unpleasant so we decided to leave. What a shame the restaurant of our childhood with grandpa makes us feel unknown! The service is tiring with our empathy but a sense of communication is essential despite everything!

unfriendly waiter, when I ask for dessert, he leaves without even listening to what I want and when I tell him that it wasn't what I wanted, he responds very curtly

very rude waiter, only reason would be because we were students ????? he was totally normal with other people.

Incredible discovery, the place is excellent in location, as well as cozy. But the best thing is inside its people, the people who serve you are incredible, attentive, kind, polite and all this with humor and joy. But then it turns out that their small large dishes are the most delicious, that pizzas, massa and cheese are a 5-star combination. And all this at a fair price. Without a doubt a place to go and return and return. Thanks for everything see you soon...MLG

Very small pizza, bad service and way too expensive!

True to their quality of service and dishes!

Great Italian homemade pizza as always for a very long time, thank you

The pizza is delicious! It is different and with exquisite ingredients. In addition, the place is very peculiar, the interior decoration refers to old trams.

Different pizza but very nice , try it you won't be disappointed

Unfriendly and uncourteous staff. Pizza arrived burnt, not to mention the ham/cream pasta, much too peppery. Could this be to cover the taste of the ham at the end of the date? Anyway, first and last time, too bad Doesn't accept criticism or comments either, saddening from a restaurateur

Very unpleasant staff and too peppery meal followed by good gastronomy, don't do it again

Dirty restaurant, and a 20 ball of water bill, that's okay, don't we take people for idiots?

A must-see address in Geneva! Adorable waiters and extraordinary pizzas! Would not change a thing

The best pizzas in Geneva since 1957!

Very very good pizza, we have been coming for years and so have our children. I recommend this restaurant Impeccable service, friendly and helpful staff.

Their pizzas are always just as good and the waitress is very friendly.

Since the 50s the recipe for the dough has not changed and it is very good like that! The first pizzeria in Geneva is always worth the detour and the staff is more than attentive, thank you all 👍👏😊

Quality of service and food simply top notch!!! A special thank you to the service team who are incredible and caring!! THANK YOU!!!!

great experience! its a must when in Geneva.

Lovely restaurant with great service. Delicious salads and pizzas. Very good value for money.

A classic that never goes out of style: excellent pizzas, chocolate pear dessert to die for. Recommended at any time when you're feeling peckish when you're near the station.

Still so good. And what's more, top service

Pizzas as good as ever, really different from other pizzerias. Very pleasant setting, very well located.

Very nice restaurant - pizzeria, decor is noteworthy, friendly staff, unusual traditional pizza, small but very nutritious!

A beautiful place, the meal very good. the staff very friendly.

Nostalgia… The first pizzeria in Geneva: 1955! We came there from Lausanne! We find the first pizzas, small and thick as in the past, but also the "modern" ones, better suited to today's tastes! More than reasonable prices in a 1950s decor!

The staff is smiling. Good value for money

I am always under the spell of this timeless place where the pizzas have the same taste as in my childhood, with my parents we reserved the same table, the one under the sunny mirror!!! It's always a pleasure to walk through the door, thank you!

In the 70's and 80's, I went there with my parents and my little brother, it was THE Saturday restaurant before or after the cinema, then during the 80's and 90's, I went there alone or with friends (e)s. Afterwards I took the one who became my better half and we of course converted the son who now goes without us (or with us when he is broke 😉). The Golden Age is my own Proust madeleine, each bite of a “Maison” brings me back to memories of all periods of my life. I cannot be objective so this opinion is worth what it is worth but it is a unique and unmissable place in Geneva.
