RICO'S in Zürichsee (ZH)

We’ve been to several Michelin restaurants, so we had a high expectation for the special dinner here but left with mixed feelings. The food was great, not heavy and entertaining. I think it was clearly qualified. However, the service was very questionable as a Michelin restaurant. We came as the second early group but were led to the worst table (the closest one to the front door). Our table was covered by two or three persons (so it was not a personal mistake) but we had to pour the wine and water by ourselves. No one asked if you need more bread or took care of napkins. >15 minutes waiting time for a machine to pay. The most unexpected thing was that they randomly used tableware to serve the same dish to different tables. If they liked you, they would use more decorative sets to surprise you. Of course, not everyone got lucky.

Great food in a cozy atmosphere. Creative implementation and stylish footwear during service. Pepperoni/Orange Cappucino = best soup ever! Thank you Rico - always happy 🏳️‍🌈🦄🫶🏽

Excellent birthday dinner. The duck was fantastic.

We really enjoyed the evening at Rico’s. We experienced an exquisite dinner that delighted all the senses. The sophisticated cuisine impressed with creative dishes, perfectly coordinated flavors and first-class presentation. The attentive service and stylish ambience helped make our visit an unforgettable dining experience. A star restaurant that promises the highest level of enjoyment. The duck was an absolute highlight!

"A truly exceptional experience at this gourmet restaurant! The culinary creations were a feast for the senses, from exquisite flavors to perfect presentation. The first-class service helped make the evening unforgettable. I highly recommend this gourmet restaurant Recommend - for anyone who is looking for the highest level of enjoyment."

Simply amazing from start to finish! A great front of house service team, attentive and friendly. Amazing and unique menu concept delicious dishes, absolutely worthy of Michelin!

food was good but not impressive in terms of the concept - expected more from this michelin star restaurant

Excellent lunch menu with exceptional dessert. Highly recommended.

What a delight. Once again. Wonderful. Thanks to Rico. Love you

Great, courteous staff and an excellent menu ❤️

We had dinner with my friends in this restaurant some weeks ago. The visit left us quite unsatisfied, and I feel it's important to share my experience honestly. Read this review if you want to avoid the same harsh experience! While the ambiance and service were okay, I cannot overlook the significant issue we encountered after dining here. Unfortunately, a few hours after my meal, we experienced severe digestive discomfort, and it was evident that the food was the reason, since three of us had the same issue for consecutive 3 days. This was quite disappointing and uncomfortable, to say the least. Moreover, after contacting the restaurant with an official letter stating this issue, no answer was received from their side. Honestly, it was the worst dining experience in my life. The restaurant where we spent almost 1000 CHF should have food of better quality than this. This is absolutely unacceptable and looks like a joke. We will make sure to inform our immediate circles, including family, friends, colleagues, and social networks about our suffering and be sure that none of them in the future visit this place, to avoid wasting money and damaging their health. I believe it's essential for a restaurant to prioritize the quality and safety of the food they serve to their customers. The fact that we experienced gastrointestinal issues shortly after dining here raises concerns about food safety and preparation! I hope that can take this feedback seriously and take steps to ensure the well-being of their patrons. We won't be returning to dine here until we are confident that such issues have been addressed.

Brilliant food! Michelin stars well earned as this is creative dining that can be limited in Zurich. The staff complement the food well & my 8 wine pairing with the degustation was the perfect match.

Rico is the best chef in the canton of Zurich. You can tell that he learned his culinary skills from Maitre Robouchon.

When we first arrived we were somewhat confused by the entrance, as we tried to open the front door, which was locked. It was only here that we realised this restaurant had been granted two Michelin Stars. When we walked back around to the little garden, staff seemed rather stressed and unorganised which continued throughout the evening. Decor consisted of fake flowers on the table and fake ferns as bushes. Bread arrived after our amuse bouche and the wine pour was so stingy we thought it was just the amount given to tase the wine. My partner and I decided to go for a different set of dishes, however our waitress got confused and thought we wanted everything twice. We later managed to correct this. The food itself was delicious. Especially the Foie Gras dish is a must try here. We loved the gazpacho and the pigeon dish too. Cooking pigeon like that requires some true skill, as it is such a lean meat. We would have also loved to try a dessert but service was so slow we figured we'd rather get the bill and head home. Over all, this place is not worth it. It doesn't have a particularly nice view and decor is cheap, service is slow and confused, and the food isn't good enough for me to believe this place really has two Michelin Stars.

Disappointing food, service was abrupt and impatient. Confusing menu

This is not a 2 star michelin, but a 2 star restaurant. I have never had such a horrible experience from the entry through an empty restaurant, to water dripping on our table and on our foods and ending with the server asking for a tip after being rude to my fiance. the food was totally meh with the only good thing being the duck liver. shrimp was clearly overcooked, but they did not seem to care. When we asked for explanation about the food we were treated with superiority and arrogance. Something must be wrong with the Michelin guide..

Very accommodating in service. Ambiance can be improved as the music and decoration had no concept. Unfortunately, plastic flowers as table decorations are also a no-go in this price range, just like Ikea side tables or old scratched champagne coolers, which are more likely to catch the eye as a cheap second-hand alternative. Apart from that, the food in the 3-course menu was lovingly prepared and prepared as expected. There was no price list for the drinks, but they were also heavily calculated. Unfortunately, confusing pricing creates a lack of trust.

Very private place, particular and recommended for a quiet dinner. Exceptional staff and very refined cuisine. I highly recommend trying this restaurant.

An absolute must 🔝🔝🔝🔝 and one of the best 😍 Rico🙌🙌

We were having bad luck with food in London and Zurich completely changed the tone. Rico’s was absolutely fabulous, both the meal and service! There was miscommunication between our concierge and the restaurant about our reservation but were able to accommodate us. Thank you Rico’s!

We really enjoyed the fine dining cuisine at Ricco's yesterday. Thanks to the whole team. It was great cinema. Ricco's kitchen and his team are world class, every course is a dream. The wine accompaniment to the menu was excellently coordinated and explained at the table in the old school way. Bravo, big praise for the attentive service. Thank you again for the lovely evening and the nice conversation. Greetings from Pfungen

Had a wonderful evening at Rico's. The menu was excellent. The service was attentive and very friendly. The sommelier had a very extensive knowledge. It was a completely successful evening. We recommend.

The portions are really made to be tasted, as is the bill, normal, we are in Switzerland

Perfect service. Excellent wine pairing and paradisiacal ambience. We would be happy to come back because we know that the price is appropriate for the perfect evening that we were able to enjoy.

A complete pleasure and thank you very much for it

An interesting and modern tasting menu. Unfortunately, I found the large wooden chairs uncomfortable.

Simply amazing, you can see 100% passion here. Great plate with 100% taste. RICO simply top restaurateur.

The place is very beautiful, but we did not taste the food. They were having a wedding party. They greeted us at the door and apologized nicely

This restaurant looked better on the website. More funky and cool, however, in reality, it was more like a modern Michelin star restaurant. The service was excellent but very cold. We did not connect with anyone. The wine selection was wide and there was a very knowledgeable sommelier. The food was nice for the price but no surprise. We honestly expected more.

The high gastronomic expectations were fully repaid. The only very small flaw in the service was the serving, halfway through the meal, of carbonated water to those who drank it plain and vice versa. Nothing serious of course but impeccable attention is expected at these levels.

18 points - overrated A lot of staff, communication was also rather difficult and with 2x5 courses and 2x 4 courses the service was already overwhelmed. During the fourth course we asked what the butter knife was still uncovered for...bread? Aha, but no bread was ever brought to us! The menu was ok, but definitely not 18 point level. When making the written reservation I mentioned that we were celebrating mother's birthday, when saying goodbye I expressed my disappointment, they brought us a small orange ball in a box... that thing rolled around in the box, we then have this unimaginative gesture in the milk crate Ricos deposited. With a dinner (4 people) costing CHF 1150.- we would have liked more professionalism!

Unfortunately a disappointment from A to Z. The food was ok, but doesn't deserve a Michelin star, let alone two. The garden ambience was nice, but the style was more like a Colombian garden restaurant (chairs rather uncomfortable with fun but not stylish cushions). The service was also okay, but nothing more. The only thing that really deserves 2 stars was the prices. A below-average espresso for Fr 8.- actually says it all. Arrivederci forever.

After a long break due to Covid, we were back at Rico's in Küsnacht yesterday. Reception and service are friendly, courteous, attentive and extremely professional in all respects. The quality of the cuisine is absolutely excellent - all the stars and points are more than deserved. We had a wonderful evening and will come back!

The level of chefs and the price can be summed up very briefly: incredibly high. Essen was great, but had to sell several organs to the East Syberian Mafia to pay the bill.

Food quite good. The amount you get for the price? An impudence. The numbers on the menu card are far too small.

Excellent service made us feel comfortable throughout the whole evening. The food was exquisite both in flavor and presentation

The food is really amazing! One point deducted for the stilted, unnatural service

Great food in a very harmonious atmosphere.

Excellent food and very friendly service

Top chef at work! A unique experience

The lunch menu is so perfectly tailored to a working day that you'll want to come there every day. There's not much more to say about the food itself, the stars are deserved, the self-image has been adjusted, the table decorations and the audience are louder than in the Kunststuben's time. At some point I'll come back more regularly in the evenings, but sometimes the appeal of the new is missing. Great sommelier... Once again, after the outstanding Ms. Sommer...

Sensational food, great service, beautiful location. A really wonderful place for a lovely meal, thanks to the team!

***** still excellent. Service perfect. Highly recommended!

The best Foresta Nera I have ever had!

We celebrate our anniversary there🥂. We enjoyed a lot. Everything was perfect. Highly recommend! 👍

This is worth the trip. Bravo RICO & Crew, you're doing fantastic.

The food was wonderful and the service was perfect! :)

Extraordinary and excellent evening at Rico's. We really enjoyed it.. great pleasure.

The furnishings may at least challenge individual tastes, but the food reconciles them with the first course. A local classic among fine dine shops that is expensive but has been really solid for many years.

Definitely not a 2 star experience. (Even 1 will be too much as well) The waitress are nice and kind, but they are under personal, therefore the service is not up the the expectations for two stars experience The quality of food is sort or mix that some are excellent while some is not that good- the risotto is definitely over cooked and is more like congee. (They removed from the check)

Fine food at a fair price. Top wine advice, quick work from the crew. The people understand something about the products you sell and are happy to give information. The company seems relaxed and not as cold as the other two.

Wir waren Mittags bei Ricos und haben das Menu genossen. Es war einfach grossartig. Küche vom allerfeinsten und der Service war sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und kompetent. So ein Gourmettempel kann ich nur weiter empfehlen. Die Preise sind im oberen Segment, jedoch absolut gerechtfertigt. Sie bekommen echt etwas dafür!

Rico and his Crew are outstanding . Rico is simply the Best! The Food is excellent and Rico and his Staff makes your stay unforgettable.

Always top, even in Corona times

Cadre un peu surrané, un mélange de rustique, désuet, moderne, fou, ecléctique, quoi, mais sympa. Un menu unique jusqu'à 9 plats, mais possibilité de faire comme on veut, à partir de 5 plats et jusqu'à la totalité des 9 plats, ce que nous avons pris. Tout était parfait, 2 petits amuse-bouches pour débuter, puis une succession de 9 plats absolument parfaits, les goûts, la présentation, tout y était.

Nice food and excellent service

(Traducido por Google) Muy recomendable (Original) Absolut empfehlenswert

(Traducido por Google) Muy sabroso con un gran personal. (Original) Sehr lecker mit tollem Personal.

(Traducido por Google) Comer como en el paraíso, cada bocado es un sueño, maravillosamente presentado, excelente comida, también para vegetarianos. Por supuesto, esto tiene su precio, esto es arte real que Rico conjura con su equipo. Restaurante en el jardín idílico, elegante, pero no distante. Me gusta increíblemente, estaré feliz de volver el año que viene 😊 (Original) Essen wie im Paradies, jeder Bissen ist ein Traum, wunderbar angerichtet, excellentes Essen, auch für Vegetarierinnen. Natürlich hat dies seinen Preis, dies ist wahre Kunst was Rico mit seinem Team zaubert. Restaurant im Garten idyllisch, chic, aber nicht abgehoben. Gefällt mir unglaublich, werde gerne wieder kommen, nächstes Jahr 😊

(Traducido por Google) El mejor Michelin donde he estado. La operación está muy orientada al cliente. El sabor de la comida es tan colorido y lleno. Todo gourmet debería venir aquí al menos una vez en la vida. ¡Recomendado! (Original) Das Beste Michelin wo ich war. Die Bedienung ist sehr kundensorientiert. Das Geschmackt das Essens ist so bunt und voll. Jeder Feinschmecker soll mindestens 1 mal im Leben hier kommen. Empfehlungswert!

Zu Coronazeiten einen 70. Geburtstag feiern, bei RICO’S stimmte trotzdem Alles. Zu Sechst im intimen Freundeskreis, mit 8 Gängen kulinarisch auf eine Reise mit vielen geschmacklichen Höhepunkten entführt. Die Präsentation ein farbliches Feuerwerk, die Weinempfehlungen vorzüglich, vom Personal familiär zuvorkommend begleitet. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

(Traducido por Google) Excelente de principio a fin. Desde el aperitivo hasta el postre, una perla culinaria siguió a la otra. Platos sofisticados y muy bien presentados. El hecho de que un vegetariano estuviera allí sin previo aviso fue respondido de manera flexible con alternativas igualmente deliciosas. La velada estuvo acompañada por un personal de servicio muy educado, amable y atento, pero nunca intrusivo. ¡Gracias por la maravillosa velada! (Original) Durch und durch hervorragend. Vom Aperitif bis zum Dessert folgte eine kulinarische Perle der anderen. Sehr schön präsentierte und ausgeklügelte Gerichte. Darauf, dass unangekündigt eine Vegetarierin dabei war, wurde flexibel mit ebenso köstlichen Alternativen reagiert. Begleitet wurde der Abend von sehr höflichen, freundlichen und aufmerksamen, aber niemals aufdringlichen Serviceangestellten. Vielen Dank für den wunderbaren Abend!

Ein toller Abend mit guten Freunden, was will man mehr? Das Essen war hervorragend und trotz vollem Haus perfekt serviert. Speziellen Dank an Toni, der uns durch den ganzen Abend führte und perfekte Weinempfehlungen abgab. Jedes Mal ein Erlebnis

Service supergut, Essen megafein, Getränkauswahl top, Umgebung ansprechend, aber nur Portionen etwas sehr klein.

(Traducido por Google) Guau (Original) Wow

Nach langen Jahren, waren wir gestern Abend, mit adäquater Erwartung zu früher, wieder einmal im Rico‘s in ZH - Küsnacht. Wie Viele hier bewerten, war der Service wirklich sehr nett und aufmerksam, deren Outfit dann doch etwas ungewohnt, speziell, wenn man an früher und Doris Petermann denkt, vermutlich Zahn der Zeit.Das Essen, bis auf die beiden ziemlich simplen amuse bouche, war ok, leider aber nicht auf dem Niveau anderer Restaurants mit weniger Sternen. Was für einen Gast dieser Kategorie jedoch unverzeihlich ist, wenn man um 19 Uhr als Erste in die Seitenflanke des Sternerestaurants gebeten wird und einen Tisch geschätzt 3 m weg von der Seestr. mit Blick auf diese und das Splittgerät der Konverteranlage bekommt. Hätte meine Frau nicht Geburtstag gehabt, wäre das ein Grund zur sofortigen Abreise gewesen. Letztlich wurden wir dann zwar etwas abgerückt aber die Stimmung in diesem „Seitenstreifen“ hat einfach Abschiebungskarakter.Wir haben Corono und die, die es mit am Schlimmsten getroffen hat, ist u.a. die Gastronomie, was mir nicht entgangen ist und ein Grund hier Milde walten zu lassen.Dennoch könnte man solche zum Glück selten erlebten „Upturner“ leicht mit einer ggf. mobilen und bepflanzten Schallschutzwand mit überschaubarem Aufwand abfedern. Das wäre zumindest ein Vorschlag, um Gäste, die hier 200 Sfr. aufwärts pro Person investieren nicht weiter mit Seestr. - Entertainment ihrem Schicksal zu überlassen.

(Traducido por Google) Para expresar el aprecio correcto por el restaurante Ricos y su equipo, deberíamos escribir un largo informe aquí. Así que tratamos de describir el mejor rendimiento de la mejor manera posible en breves puntos. Gracias a nuestra rama profesional, ya hemos podido equipar los mejores restaurantes de Suiza, Austria o Francia. Ya conocemos los mejores restaurantes del mundo y, por lo tanto, tenemos una comparación directa con Rico's. De manera puramente objetiva, podemos decir por la puesta en escena, el ingenio de los platos, cómo se coordinan los componentes, la calidad de los platos o el ambiente y, por último, pero no menos importante, el excelente servicio del personal es de primera clase mundial. Estamos felices y agradecidos de tener al mejor chef de Suiza, Rico, en Küsnacht, y no sin razón. Hay leyendas como Lionel Messi, que representa al mejor futbolista, Michael Jackson, el rey del pop, Usain Bolt, el hombre más rápido del mundo, o Rico, la leyenda viviente que disfruta del arte de la cocina. ¡Rico vive su elemento! Nadie cocina como él a este nivel todos los días. Estimado equipo de Rico, es un placer tenerlo aquí en Suiza. ¡Espero que seas el primer restaurante del mundo en recibir 20 puntos! ¡Ya tienes 3 estrellas! (Original) Um dem Restaurant Ricos und seinem Team die richtige Anerkennung auszudrücken sollten wir hier einen seitenlangen Rapport schreiben. Also versuchen wir, als gut als möglich in kurzen Punkten die Spitzenleistung zu schildern. Dank unseres beruflichen Zweiges, durften wir bereits mit die besten Restaurants aus der Schweiz, Österreich oder Frankreich ausstatten. Wir haben bereits weltweit die Top Restaurants kennenlernen dürfen und haben daher einen direkten Vergleich zu Rico's. Wir können rein objektiv von der Inszenierung, dem Einfallsreichtum der Gerichte, wie die Komponenten abgestimmt sind, die Qualität der Speisen oder das Ambiente, nicht zuletzt der exzellente Service des Personals ist Weltniveau Platz 1. Wir sind froh und dankbar, den nicht ohne Grund besten Koch der Schweiz Rico in Küsnacht zu haben. Es gibt Legenden wie Lionel Messi der für den besten Fußballer steht,Michael Jackson der King of Pop, Usain Bolt der schnellste Mann der Welt oder Rico die lebende Legende im Genießen der hohen Kunst des Kochens. Rico lebt sein Element! Keiner kocht wie Er auf diesem Niveau und das täglich. Liebes Team Rico’s, es ist eine Gnade euch hier in der Schweiz zu haben. Ich hoffe, Ihr seit das erste Restaurant weltweit welches 20 Punkte erhält!! 3 Sterne habt ihr Bereits!

(Traducido por Google) ¡Adivinar! Han pasado años desde que cené aquí y todavía pienso en la experiencia (Original) Divine! It has been years since dining here and I still think about the experience

(Traducido por Google) Tuvimos la noche más maravillosa allí. La comida era espectacular (el helado de hígado de ganso y el huevo onsen estaban fuera de este mundo), el personal fue increíblemente amable y se esforzó al máximo para que la experiencia fuera excelente. Era el cumpleaños de mi esposo y al final les pedí una golosina extra que le gustó, ¡terminamos yendo a casa con muchas golosinas adicionales! ¡No puedo esperar para regresar! (Original) We had the most wonderful evening there. The food was spectacular (goose liver ice cream, and onsen egg were out of this world), the staff was incredibly nice and went all out to make the experience great. It was my husband's birthday and at the end I asked them for an extra tiny treat he liked, we ended up going home with many extra treats! Can't wait to go back!

(Traducido por Google) Gran lugar, comida y servicio! El chef fue increíblemente amable y compartió con nosotros la receta de una de sus deliciosas salsas. Gran lugar no solo para la cena, sino también para el almuerzo: todo funciona sin problemas y podrá almorzar en 1,5 horas. (Original) Great place, food and service! The chef was incredibly nice and shared with us the recipe of one of his delicious sauce. Great place not only for dinner, but also for lunch - everything runs smoothly and you will be able to have lunch in 1,5h.

Schlichtweg ein genialer und unvergesslicher Abend! Selbst unsere Kinder mit 18 und 19 Jahren haben das Restaurant spontan als das beste Restaurant ever bezeichnet.Service 20 Punkte, Susanne als Sommelier 20 Punkte und die Küchenleistung 20 Punkte. Besser geht es in unsren Augen nicht. Wir freuen uns auf den nächsten Besuch.

(Traducido por Google) Servicio superior, comida superior, vino superior. Bravo (Original) Bedienung Top, Essen Top, Wein Top. Bravo

Wir haben uns sehr darauf gefreut und das Essen war hervorragend. Auch der Service war nett und unaufdringlich, die Sommeliere hilfreich und nett. Das Weinsortiment ist für unseren Geschmack nicht rund, es fehlen Italiener, insbesondere Süditalien ist gar nicht vertreten. Kulinarisch war der Abend wunderbar. ABER: das Interieur ist etwas vom Schlimmsten, das wir je gesehen haben. So virtuos der Chef sein Metier versteht, so unterirdisch ist die Innenausstattung. Aber vielleicht liegt es daran, dass wir in ein hinteres Stübchen verbannt wurden, mit den Worten „Private dining“, da möchten wir das nächste Mal nicht sitzen- hat aber whs. mit Corona zu tun... deshalb nur 4 Sterne

Des présentations superbes et une finesse des goûts exceptionnelles. Nous sommes ravis d’un déjeuner dans ce restaurant et le rapport qualité prix est vraiment tres bon

Die Kunststuben sind moderner geworden, das Personal weniger steif aber sehr freundlich und aufmerksam.Das 5-Gang-Menu kostet 180.00 und beinhaltet zwei Amuse-Bouches.Hervorragend geschmeckt haben der Wolfsbarsch und das Spargel-Morchel Cassoulet, die beiden Gerichte waren auf 2-Sterne-Niveau.Das Pulpocarpaccio mit einem kleinen Gänseleberwürfel war ok, aber keine Offenbarung, das gleiche gilt für den Hauptgang, 2 Tranchen pochiertes Rindsfilet. Haben schon zarteres Filet genossen.Die Desserts waren ok, hatten aber nicht das Niveau von früher.Die Weinpreise bewegen sich im obersten Bereich.Wir haben den Abend trotzdem genossen, aber vermissen die einstige Kreativität und Qualität.

Wir mögen die kreativen und feinen Speisen, das Ambiente, den unkomplizierten und netten Stil, ohne Schickimicki-Allüren

(Traducido por Google) A veces siento que la guía Michelin califica los restaurantes en Suiza un poco generosamente, pero la comida en Rico's me impresionó mucho. Todos los platos de pescado / marisco eran fantásticos, especialmente el pulpocarpaccio y la lubina. Encontramos que el plato de carbonara no era de nuestro gusto, y pensé que mi postre era demasiado dulce, pero todo lo demás lo compensó. Las porciones son generosas para cenar, incluso tuvimos problemas para terminar el menú de 7 platos. Muy recomendable :) (Original) I sometimes feel that the Michelin guide grades restaurants in Switzerland a bit generously, but I was very impressed by the food at Rico's. All the fish/seafood dishes were fantastic, especially the pulpocarpaccio and the seabass. We found the carbonara dish not to our taste, and I thought my dessert was a bit too sweet, but everything else more than made up for it. The portions are generous for fine dining - we even had trouble finishing the 7-course menu. Highly recommended :)

(Traducido por Google) Un restaurante encantador, acogedor y pequeño. Ambiente agradable con mucha personalidad. Buena cocina. Todo esta delicioso. (Original) A lovely restaurant, cozy and small. Nice atmosphere with lots of personality. Fine cuisine. Everything is delicious.

Had a superb dinner at Rico's. We went for the full 9 courses menu which is pretty much the limit in terms of quantity as each dish is small but still quite generously served. All 9 were excellent and 2 or 3 dishes were fantastic. A special mention to the pulpetto starter and the beautiful desserts.... and for the dish presentation overall. Service very friendly and efficient, dishes arriving at the right pace, nice and professional sommelier, pleasant decoration and prices remaining quite "reasonable" (well... in that world of course!) especially given the location. Would return anytime.

Endlich konnten wir wieder zu Rico essen gehen. Die Karte umgestellt auf Menü mit maximal 9 Gängen! Das Essen war exzellent und der Service von Toni und Sascha hervorragend auch die neue Dame war sehr freundlich. Die Somelier ist so wie ein General, könnte etwas angenehmer von der Stimme her sein und etwas mehr Melodie rein bringen. Auch sollte sie nicht nur Wein nachschenken sondern gleichzeitig auch die leeren Wassergläser auffüllen. Kommen gerne wieder und freuen uns bereits jetzt darauf.

Where do I start....You always have high expectations of any starred restaurant and therefore you do set the bar high for both food and service, especially places with a coveted second star. Experience listed below.- No welcome on arrival- Served food without being offered a drink- Had to ask for a menu after 20 minutes of being seated- Had to repeatedly fill up glasses for myself and my guests.- Zero guidance from the sommelier who also ended up waiting our table as they were short staffed...- Our order was bought out wrong and my wife was given something she didn't order- It got so bad I went to have a quiet word with the maitre'd so as not to make a scene with other guests and even at that point he did not come over to the table once or take control of the situation.- No apology offered just told 'this is a bad service'- We were told that we (table 26) looked like trouble on arrival by a member of staff - how unprofessional is that?- It was like there was some stigma that we were an English group and tourists which we weren't. The couple we dined with were Swiss and we both live in the neighborhood.The list goes on. The food was pretty average and underwhelming. Fresh and reasonably cooked but very basic and no wow factor. Not good for the price and certainly not two star standard. When you compare it places like the Ledbury in London (2 stars also) it is chalk and cheese. Way, way off the pace. I honestly cannot understand how in anyone's world this could have one star let alone two. The service is certainly the worst I have received in any establishment in Zurich.I was blown away by how bad and below par this place is. It all just seemed very amateur and lost and not what should be a very slick operation. I genuinely felt they didn't care about our experience which is the greatest shame.4 people - 1000 chf.Zurich has a lot to offer in terms of restaurants, save you money - go to Kronenhalle, Conte, Zum Kropf, Bianci, Emilios... the list goes on. This place surely cannot survive long with this lax attitude to customers.

Wir haben uns mega gefreut, als wir hörten, dass Rico ein kleines Angebot als Take away anbietet.Muss abgeholt werden, per paypal funktioniert die Abwicklung sehr gut.So haben wir in unserer „homeküche“ einen weiteren 2**Gaumengenuss während dieser Virus-Krise und unsere Gemüter erhellen sich.Wir wünschen uns, dass Rico mit seinem Restaurant noch lange erhalten bleibt, auch wenn es nicht so einfach ist....... gerne kommen wir wieder ins Gärtli, sobald es möglich ist.

In Zeiten des Corona Virus ist auch das Restaurant geschlossen, so dass wir den geplanten Besuch zum 48. Hochzeitstag nicht machen konnten. Allerdings offeriert Rico's einen Take away Service mit relativ simplen (z. B. Goulasch) Gerichten und Vorspeisen von grosser Klasse. Wir haben dies dann bei uns angerichtet und gefeiert.

Rico,s is located in Kuesnacht, on the main road and an easy walk from Kuesnacht railway station and the centre of the town. There is also limited parking available to the side of the restaurant building.The restaurant is housed in old building, which gives the place a lot of character. Decorated inside in a flamboyant and colourful style, means that there is always something to look at. The dining area is L-shaped, so bigger parties can take up one part of the restaurant if necessary and not impinge on those wanting a more intimate evening. The menu is interesting, with different dishes available through either a 3-4-5 course fixed menu or the a la carte option. The wine selection is also great. Every dish we chose was beautifully presented, the ingredients amazingly fresh and well prepared and the taste didn't disappoint either. The service was professional but understated. The sommelier had excellent knowledge. We enjoyed a wonderful evening with friends, who were visiting from the UK. Definitely recommended!

2 stars Michelin restaurant with nice interior, excellent staff and delicious food. We’ve had tasting menu and three positions was extremely tasty. High priced, far away from the city center (took Uber) but it’s totally worth it!

(Traducido por Google) Tengo que ser sincero: la comida y el servicio fueron increíbles la primera y única vez que pudimos ir allí. Mi empresa hizo la reserva por nosotros. Parecía que era un club privado, ya que todos se conocían, excepto nosotros. El chef salió hablando poco con todos, excluyéndonos. Lo cual fue un poco extraño, pero esa es su elección. Mi problema con este establecimiento comenzó cuando el mes pasado reservé el restaurante para la cena de San Valentín. Usé su sitio web para reservar para la cena, todo funcionó bien. Pero después de un par de días recibí una llamada del restaurante y una señora dijo que estaban cancelando la reserva. Le pregunté el motivo pero no pudo explicarlo. Curiosamente traté de reservar nuevamente a través de su sitio web, esta vez con un nombre más occidental diferente, sorprendentemente todo sucedió. No recibí ninguna llamada de cancelación. Optamos por un no show y en su lugar planeamos una fantástica cena de San Valentín en el Waterside Inn, Bray, Reino Unido, donde nos trataron con respeto a pesar de nuestro apellido. Es una pena que hoy en día los apellidos importen y estas payasadas raciales sigan existiendo en una ciudad metropolitana y multicultural como Zurich. Sin embargo, les deseo todo lo mejor. (Original) Gotta be honest - food and service were amazing the first and only time we could go there. My company did the booking for us. It did feel like it was a private club as everyone knew each other except us. The Chef came out small talked with everyone excluding us. Which was a bit odd but that's his choice. My issue with this establishment started when last month I booked the restaurant for Valentine's eve dinner. I used their website to book for the dinner, it all worked well. But than after a couple of days I got a call from the restaurant and a lady said that they are cancelling the booking. I asked her the reason but she was unable to explain. Curiously I tried to book again through their website - this time under a different more western name - surprisingly it all went through. I did not recieve any call for cancellation. We opted for a no show and instead planned a fantastic Valentine's dinner at the Waterside Inn, Bray, UK, where we were treated with respect despite our last name. It's a pity that at this day and age last names matter and these racial antics still exist in a metropolitan and multicultural city like Zurich. Wish them all the best though.

(Traducido por Google) Todo fue desafortunado (Original) Das ganze war unglücklich

Was uns an Rico Zandonellas Küche besonders gefällt, ist seine ganz persönliche Linie, die manchmal auch ziemlich frech ist, machmal sogar etwas schräg, nie aber Sterne-Küche-Mainstream, sondern getreu seinem Motto "Ich bin wie ich bin". Vor allem aber: immer hervorragend zubereitet.

(Traducido por Google) Sensacional. Ayer tuvimos el placer de disfrutar del menú de 7 platos. Top de la A a la Z. Buena comida, buen servicio, vinos fantásticos. Las 2 estrellas y 18 puntos rara vez se obtuvieron como en Rico. Hasta pronto y gracias por la gran noche. (Original) Sensationell. Wir hatten gestern das Vergnügen das 7-Gang Menü zu geniessen. Top von A-Z. Super essen, toller Service, fantastische Weine. Die 2 Sterne und 18 Punkte waren selten so verdient wie bei Rico's. See you soon again und Danke für den tollen Abend

(Traducido por Google) Super comido, un servicio atento. selección de vinos es excelente. Sin embargo, los precios tienen en ellos, por lo que dejan una estrella. (Original) Super gegessen, aufmerksamer Service. Weinauswahl ist vorzüglich. DOch die Preise haben es in sich, daher ein Stern abzug.

Wir hatten das Vergnügen, mit Freunden im Rico's ein kulinarisches Feuerwerk zu geniessen: Das von Carlo Rampazzi, dem bekannten Innenarchtekten und Designer aus Ascona gestaltete Interieur passt zur Exklusivität der gebotenen Kulinarik. Die Qualität des gewählten Speisen war einmalig. Der Champagner und die Weine überzeugten unsere Gäste. Der Service war aufmerksam, gut geschult und freundlich. Wir bedanken uns bei Rico und dem ganzen Team für diesen unvergesslichen Abend.

(Traducido por Google) Fuimos a Rico's con altas expectativas para la noche perfecta. Desafortunadamente, estos solo se cumplieron parcialmente. Desafortunadamente, el ambiente no reflejaba lo que habíamos imaginado y todos estábamos decepcionados con los platos. Estuvieron muy bien presentados, pero ninguno de nosotros era realmente excepcional y el postre era demasiado dulce. Afortunadamente, el servicio fue muy amable y extremadamente atento. Eso nos salvó la noche. (Original) Wir sind mit hohen Erwartungen auf den Perfekten Abend ins Rico's gegangen. Leider wurden diese nur teilweise erfüllt. Das Ambiente hat leider nicht so ganz das widergespiegelt, was wir uns vorgestellt hatten und von den Gerichten waren wir alle durchweg enttäuscht. Sie waren wirklich toll angerichtet, aber geschmacklich bei keinem von uns wirklich außergewöhnlich und das Dessert war viel zu süß. Zum Glück war der Service super freundlich und extrem aufmerksam. Das hat uns dann doch noch den Abend gerettet.

We spent our Christmas Eve Dinner at Rico’s in Kusnacht and we have enjoyed very much the dinner. The combination of the food was very good some innovative and the meal was delicious. Their house champagne was a surprising discovery good one and we did all the meal with it.Unfortunately the service for a 2 star Michelin would require some improvements such as no one was in an attempt to take our coat, there was not a dedicated waiter to serve table ( our glasses were left empty sometimes) , they forgot to bring us one dish from the 8 courses menu and we needed to tell them, and the waiting at a point of time was far too long between dishes ( time to finish 3 glasses of champagne so not sure if they have actually forgotten another dish !) until we needed to tell them. What a pity because the meal was just so fantastic.Food for sure is Michelin level but definitely not the service.

Wir waren gestern bei Rico's. Bedienung war sehr gut, etwas unkonventionell für fine dining, aber sehr angenehm und bemüht. Interieur fanden wir sehr cool. Das Essen reicht meiner Meinung nach nicht für 2 Sterne. Sushi geschmacklos. Die Nage zu "schwer". Rotbarbe zu trocken. Ente an einigen Stellen durchzogen. Tiramisu viel zu mächtig (gut, das hätte man ja nicht aufessen müssen). Ausserordentlich gut war das piña colada Dessert. Die Gesamterfahrung war positiv, aber vom Essen hätten wir etwas mehr Raffinesse erwartet.

We have been to most Star Restaurants in Switzerland and really enjoy gastronomy and are from the profession. When you go to a 2 Michelin Star restaurant, the expectations are high and to be fair, set by the Guide. We were on our 20th anniversary on Friday the 13th 2019. We expected outstanding food, elegance in service and impeccable hospitality. First when we walk in, there is a waiter who seems clueless and let’s us stand there and wait for someone else to bring to our table. The menu, was on the table and looked like a pizzeria menu. This we were told was only the Menu Degustation, but the waiter didn’t tell us there was also “A different à la carte menu”. There is no sommelier, and despite a wonderful win list, it’s on an iPad which makes it really everything else than elegant. The waiters were wearing black jeans and sneakers, again, maybe an attempt to be cool and hipster But really, no need for it. The food was very good, no question. But we would have loved to see a cheese plate, but again nothing there. At the end of our dinner, the waitress who was supposed to be the sommelier, comes to serve the last Glas of wine. She shakes the carafe so all the sediments go into suspension again, and while the wine is turning really fast in the carafe, she serves it so all the wine end up on the table instead of in the Glas. The gals only got a bit of sediments left over. What is here reaction to this situation? She takes my napkin to cover up the spot that was about 30x20cm. We left without taking a desert because we felt, this is just not special. Again, the food was really good, but the experience less than average unfortunately. When you pay a meal 400CHF for two, you can expect perfection and elegance on top of good food.

Wieder waren wir hier mit einem guten Freund essen. Rico kam um uns persönlich zu begrüssen. Wir hatten einen gelungenen Abend mit der richtigen Weinbegleitung. Die Gänseleber einfach genial und das Ragout vom Rehrücken fantastisch.Toni hat uns den ganzen Abend professionell begleitet. Freue mich schon aufs nächste mal.
