Schönau in Zürich

I ate here with a friend in the summer and with three work colleagues in the winter, and everyone was unanimously happy with what was on offer. The menu focuses on vegetarian/vegan dishes, and it's great how many vegetables are used here. The philosophy of the house is based on sharing meals. With four people you can get away with six to eight dishes and be full. However, I have a small objection when preparing the dishes: I think the creamy-sweet flavor dominates the majority of the dishes. The spicy, salty and sour areas are somewhat missing. There's still a lot to be gained in terms of variety of flavors...

One of my favorites in Zurich, went there to celebrate my birthday and the food was delicious. Last time we went was a little noisy, as it is a small place, but still everything was tasty and the service was nice

Food was delicious and the service unbeatable. The concept of sharing the dishes makes you want to try the entire menu. All dishes were very good, which makes it hard to recommend only one :D We went there to celebrate a birthday dinner and they made it the best.

Wonderful place for dinner and drinks. My wife and I ordered the surprise menu and the staff did an excellent job coursing our meal out.

Absolutely delicious dishes. I really got flashed 👌🏼🤤❤️‍🔥

We were there with a larger group. The Travoltola offering was outstanding - super tasty and something for everyone. Everyone loved it. The service was outstanding, I have rarely experienced such good and courteous service. Absolutely recommended!

Attractive and not overloaded menu, super nice and attentive staff.

Very nice staff and the food was good too. 80% vegetarian

Excellent dishes. Several menus to choose from.

Stumbled on this place while staying in Zurich. Super friendly waiter asked the kitchen to stay open for us. Food was excellent - eclectic mix of vegetarian and meat dishes. We had a light dinner and enjoyed all of it. Highly recommend.

Very good food. Not the usual. Super friendly and attentive service. Resti in a cool location with lots of life.

It was our first time here and we ate extremely well! Would love to come back.

On this beautiful, warm late summer evening, experiencing such a wonderful soul food tavolata was simply fantastic. The market-fresh products, seasoned with so much skill and served with so much attention to detail, was great! The wine accompaniment was A1, the dessert was great, keep it up dear Schönau team.

Amazing location for food and service

One of the best restaurants in Zurich, super friendly!

Great relaxed place, great food and great service! We will be back! Thank you for the lovely evening with you!

beautiful chill place with great service and good food

Super friendly place opposite a nice park. The food was smaller plates to share and every one of them was executed to perfection! Minimalistic, but refined. We had a wonderful evening. If you eat one place in Zürich let this be it. Thank you!

Good Food fast Service and good Location A lot speaks for this Place just next to the Park.

Was thrilled with the food. The prices are a bit high but also correspond to the better cuisine compared to other restaurants. Staff and location (on a closed summer street) very chill.

Ate at Schönau often, and every time the food was fantastic. And the service too. Thanks!

Wonderful. A very nice atmosphere, excellent, friendly, attentive service without any chichi. And the food - a lesson in the fact that creative vegetarian food leaves absolutely nothing to be desired. You can probably eat meat here too - but you're missing out on the chance to have a great veggie experience. Thank you and again at any time!

A cozy, hospitable atmosphere, creative fine cuisine! Also good veggie selection. I especially like the sharing dishes. The service? Friendly. The drinks? Great, surprising creations from the bar. Price? Absolutely fair!

Delicious food and lovely atmosphere

We received excellent service from Fabian, very courteous, attentive and patient. We were undecided about what to eat because everything sounded really good. The food was wonderful, creative and everyone could eat their fill. It was a very beautiful evening. I can warmly recommend Schönau.

A really nice experience! We had mushroom ragout, lamb, potato cakes and, for dessert, amaretti fresh from the oven. It was all very good! Balanced, creative, a culinary delight. We particularly liked the tavolata style: dishes come in the middle and sharing is fun. The staff is very friendly and attentive, the atmosphere is cozy and pleasantly quiet. Lovely again!

Super fine food, very creative cuisine, just wow! Cool, uncomplicated atmosphere, top service from Fabian. It was a nice evening with friends where everything was shared. I'd love to come back

The four of us ordered the surprise menu for dinner on Friday evening. With wine accompaniment for 110 Sfr. per person. +Friendly staff +Vegetarian alternatives +Intolerances are taken into account +Fast service and no long waiting times +Price/performance +The dishes are consistently shared! :)

Higher end dining, (between classic food and gastronomical), very tasty and served in large quantities. Service was professional. Will definitely go again.

For me an insider tip in the city of Zurich. This restaurant offers everything you need for a cozy evening. Great ambience, friendly service (you feel at home) and delicious menus to share. We'd love to come back!

Lovely place for lunch. Modern design with a lot of wood. Staff is super friendly. And don't get me started about the food. With just 4 options they make something special for everyone.

Delicious food, great service in a pleasant atmosphere!

Very very yummy! We really enjoyed the Tavolata in the group! We'll be back soon!

Super delicious food with a sharing principle. We were wonderfully positively surprised. All courses were delicious - and the service was excellent.

Great food and friendly staff- I can really recommend Shönau

Very fine food and very nice and attentive service. We ordered 5 portions (3 starters and 2 main courses), which was perfect for three people. We'll definitely come back.

Seasonal kitchen with portions to share, nice environment and very friendly personal.

Fine food, ambience and very friendly service ☺️

Every dish was delicious and enjoyed by all. Recommend going in a small group and sharing. Roughly 2-3 dishes per person was more than enough. Service was very friendly.

super delicious food. Every dish ordered has a unique taste and is beautifully served. Very great food concept, especially if you want to try a lot of things but don't want to overeat. All food you order is intended to be shared. Beautiful decor and very attentive and committed service. All in all there was a relaxed and nice atmosphere. We sat on the forecourt of the restaurant, which is on a pedestrian street. There is plenty of space and some plants between the tables. You don't feel crowded or too close to other guests.

The food is great, the prices are a disgrace! It's clear that eating out in Zurich is more expensive, but 39.- for 3 flat-pressed little chickens - something? And then you have to order something extra and you're still hungry. Seriously? I think there's a limit somewhere...

Really very nice, but small portions... ..not enough for a decent lunch...

Was alone as a lunch guest in this very tasty restaurant. Extraordinarily delicious risotto, fine salad as a starter. Truly recommended!

Great evening, I celebrated my birthday there, such delicious food! I would come back at any time! Thanks to the friendly staff!

Very good location, next to a park with outside seating in the summer. They serve very good food and have friendly staff. Requires reservations for dinner. Also good lunch options. Check their website for the daily lunch menus Still awesome!

The food is absolutely delicious and drinks are really good. The thing that makes it stand out is the staff!

The hammer. Everything is right here.

Been there a few times with different people and it is always a hit. Concept is to order many dishes to share. Fresh and good quality products.

*** definitely a place to go - who wants something cozy - relaxed - uncomplicated - family-like and of course if you want to spoil your taste buds !? you are at the right address here !!! because I associate all of that with Schönau !!! by the way is Schönau one of my top 3 favorite restaurant in that price range . i would like to take this opportunity to thank the Schönau-team for their great work - professionalism and friendliness!!! keep it up - bravo!!!

The food and drinks were great and the staff was very friendly. An all-round successful evening 👍

The food is fine, had the 4-course surprise menu. As a starter, a salsiz with olives and bread. We sat outside, it's nice with the bakery behind it. There is a skate park next to the restaurant, but it doesn't bother you. The coffee is very fine and strong. As a farewell drink there is a glass of ginger, which is nice. A waitress brought the ginger to the table and I politely declined and she offered me the ginger several times, finally she slammed the glass on the table in exasperation, but what's wrong with saying no!! Seen this way, I can't rate this as positive, that's why it's only 2 stars.

At the end of the evening we were annoyed by the service. Questions were answered rather bluntly. Although the concept of the local needs to be explained. But the food, I have to say, was really great! At an excellent level. The mozzarella is delicious, the meat is tender, the tomatoes still taste like tomatoes... Despite the service, we are considering going back. A really big compliment to the kitchen!! One star deducted because of the service, otherwise ***** Update 2021: Different service, equally delicious food!! Really a very good place in the city of Zurich!

Great Food and cool ambience...pricey, but well worth it. Love the food sharing concept.

The food was simply sensational 10/10 The Pessoal was super friendly, I felt very comfortable and would definitely recommend it

Absolutely sensational cuisine, best service in town, we always enjoy coming back

Simply delicious and super nice service! would love to come back

Tolles Ambiente mit angenehmer Bestuhlung draussen neben der Bäckeranlage. Das Menu ist übersichtlich aber jedes Gericht klingt spannend. Wir haben nur Vegi Gerichte gewählt und sind damit sehr gut gefahren. Alles hat hervorragend geschmeckt, werden wieder kommen und andere Gerichte ausprobieren.

Gemütliche Stimmung draussen, tolles Ambiente, leckere Drinks, nettes Team. Komme gerne mal zum Essen vorbei.

wie immer ausgezeichnetes Essen...Service perfekt..danke für den schönen Abend auch in einer kleineren Runde

Lockere,coole Atmosphäre, super Essen, top freundlich und dazu noch stylisches Restaurant. Ich war gestern schon zum zweiten Mal in der Schönau und war erneut begeistert. Ihr macht vieles richtig was in der Zürcher Gastroszene oft falsch läuft. Nach nur zwei Besuchen seid ihr zu meinen Lieblingsrestaurants aufgestiegen…. Weiter so

(Traducido por Google) ... no comido tan bien en un restaurante durante mucho tiempo! Tan bueno que ahora vengo a escribir mi primera reseña de Google. Mi madre y yo solo seleccionamos los platos vegetarianos, tanto para empezar como para los platos principales. Me parece que en realidad hay muchas opciones en esta dirección, teniendo en cuenta que todo el menú se mantiene compacto. Aunque hoy me consideraría un vegetariano simple, que también está bastante satisfecho con un sándwich, arroz y verduras o frutas, estos platos de Schönau fueron tan populares conmigo que nunca quisieron demasiado y nunca demasiado poco: ¡a l p u n t i n o! Y la garantía de esto fue dada por mi madre, a quien no le gusta algo más rápido que al revés, ¡y en esta visita fue al revés! Eso me impresionó de que los ingredientes más diversos en los respectivos platos fueran tan sofisticados que básicamente tuve la sensación de que "estoy comiendo mi comida favorita", aunque la mayoría de las combinaciones de sabores eran nuevas para mí, ¡loca! El servicio fue muy amable y atento. ¡Incluso me vendieron una bebida sin alcohol que realmente no quería hasta que tomé el primer sorbo! Se podrían mencionar más observaciones y experiencias, pero esto debería ser suficiente por ahora. Me hubiera gustado pagar la factura en cualquier caso, pero estaba, en este caso, tengo que decir: ¡por desgracia! - invitado. :-) Merci beaucoup! F. (Original) ...schon lange nicht mehr so gut v e g e t a r i s c h gegessen in einem Restaurant! So gut, dass ich hier nun dazu komme, meine erste Google-Rezension zu verfassen. Meine Mutter und ich hatten ausschliesslich die vegetarischen Gerichte ausgewählt, zur Vor- wie auch zur Hauptspeise. Mir viel auf, dass es in die Richtung tatsächlich reichlich Auswahl gibt, in Anbetracht dessen, dass das ganze Menu doch kompakt gehalten wird. Obwohl ich mich heute zu einem simplen Vegetarier zählen würde, das heisst durchaus auch zufrieden mit einem Butterbrot, Reis und Gemüse oder Obst, kamen diese Schönau-Speisen in meinem Gaumen so an, dass sie nie zu viel und nie zu wenig wollten: a l p u n t i n o ! Und die Bürge dafür gab meine Mutter ab, die eher schneller etwas nicht mag als umgekehrt und bei diesem Besuch war es eben umgekehrt! Das hat mich beeindruckt, dass doch verschiedenste Ingredienzen in den jeweiligen Tellern so ausgeklügelt daher kamen, dass ich im Prinzip die ganze Zeit das Gefühl hatte "ich esse mein Lieblingsessen", obwohl mir die meisten Geschmackskombinationen neu waren - abgefahren! Der Service war sehr lieb und aufmerksam. Mir wurde sogar ein alkoholfreier Drink verkauft, den ich erst wirklich wollte, als ich den ersten Schluck daraus trank! Es könnten noch weitere Beobachtungen und Erlebnisse angeführt werden, doch soll dies hier zunächst mal reichen. Mir wäre es auf alle Fälle eine Lust gewesen die Rechnung zu zahlen, ich wurde jedoch - in diesem Falle muss ich sagen: leider! - eingeladen. :-) Merci beaucoup! F.

(Original) Nothing special.. i was expecting a lil more in terms of menu and interior (as per the reputation).. but food was ok.. service was friendly..

(Traducido por Google) Muy buen ambiente! Super agradable servicio! ¡El menú sorpresa ha estado muy bien! ¡Puré de habas como en Puglia! Bravi! (Original) Sehr schöne Atmosphere! Super nette Bedienung! Das Überraschung-Menu ist sehr fein gewesen! Favabohnenpüree wie in Apulien! Bravi!

(Traducido por Google) Oh, como siempre un placer. ¡Una "super noche" está garantizada! (Original) Ach, wie immer ein Genuss. Ein "Super-Abend" ist garantiert!

(Traducido por Google) Buen servicio y comida deliciosa, un poco caro. (Original) Guter Service und leckeres Essen, ein wenig zu teuer.

(Traducido por Google) Bijou fantástico, entre mis diez mejores personales en Zurich. El Tavolata no dejaba nada que desear, creativo bellamente presentado y probado absolutamente fenomenal. El servicio también es único, ya que rara vez lo encuentras en Zurich: amable, servicial, personal y encantador. Gran película, queremos volver! Muchas gracias (Original) Fantastisches bijou, Unter meinen persönlichen Top Ten in Zürich. Die Tavolata liess keine Wünsche offen, Creative schön angerichtet und geschmacklich absolut phänomenal. Service ebenfalls eine Klasse für sich, wie man es in Zürich selten antrifft: freundlich zuvorkommend persönlich und charmant. Ganz grosses Kino, we will be back! Vielen herzlichen Dank!

(Traducido por Google) Estuvimos aquí para la comida de cumpleaños, tres personas y toda la comida fue compartida. La sopa de sopa de aperitivo se servía fría a altas temperaturas, lo que tiene sentido, pero si hace demasiado frío no sabrá tanto, demasiado mal ... todos los platos principales, todo muy bien. Tiramisu tenía una capa de hielo y no se recomienda. Casi cuatro estrellas, en realidad tres, pero el personal rompe mucho :) (Original) Wir waren zum Geburtstags essen hier, drei Personen und alle speisen wurde geteilt. Vorspeise Tagessuppe, wurde bei den heissen Temperaturen kalt serviert, das ergibt Sinn aber wenn sie zu kalt ist schmeckt man nicht mehr so viel, schade... Hauptgänge alle super. Tiramisu hatte eine Eisschicht und ist nicht zu empfehlen. Knappe vier Sterne, eigentlich drei aber das Personal reisst viel raus :)

(Traducido por Google) Muy sabroso Fui a almorzar con un colega una vez. Y me gustaría invitar a mi familia allí. Por la tarde tienes que reservar una mesa. Lamentablemente no teníamos reserva. Schaaade. (Original) Sehr lecker. Ich war mal an einem Mittag mit einer Kollegin essen gegangen. Und möchte meine Familie dort einladen. Am Abend "muss" man ein Tisch reservieren. Leider hatten wir keine reservation gehabt. Schaaade.

Wir haben Glück auch ohne Reservation ergattern wir gerade noch einen Platz im Schönau. Wir entscheiden uns für einen Grünkernsalat und Fava, sprich Kirchererbsenpüree mit etwas Catalunya und Olivenöl, beides ists ehr schmackhaft. Danach probieren wir die Zitronen-Gnocchi, die zwar sehr lecker, aber fast etwas zu wenig zitronig sind, ein paar Zesten hätten wohl schon gereicht. Ein Gedicht das Thymianrisotto mit dem ganz feinen, sehr salzigen Speckstreifen.

(Traducido por Google) Super menús y muy amables. (Original) Super menus und sehr freundlich.

(Traducido por Google) Dios mío, qué desastre en verdad. Impactante, grosero, espantoso. No volverá Siempre. (Original) OMG, what a disaster indeed. Shocking, rude, appalling. Will NOT come back. Ever.

Was soll man noch dazu sagen? Service ausgezeichnet! Essen unglaublich fein! Besitzer einfach Top! Immer wieder gerne bei euch! Das Restaurant kann man nur empfehlen. Freue mich schon auf das nächste Essen bei euch!

(Traducido por Google) La comida, el servicio de primera clase. Muy recomendable !! (Original) Super Essen, Top Bedienung. Sehr Empfehlenswert!!

Our hotel sent us to another place that wouldn't let us in without a reservation. No worries - a stroll away was Schonau and we are so excited we found it!The menu items are designed to be shared family-style. We ordered a diverse arrangement of items that went well together and we were guided by our helpful waitress. Everything was very good and we enjoyed the dinner and pace of the restaurant. I would definitely return if I were in this area again!

(Traducido por Google) Súper compañía agradable con muy buena comida y buen vino y servicio atento! TODO PERFECTO! (Original) Super nette Gesellschaft mit sehr gutem Essen und feinem Wein sowie aufmerksamer Bedienung! ALLES PERFEKT!

(Traducido por Google) Bonito lugar con muy buena comida y ambiente informal. La comida es interesante y deliciosa, cosas útiles y amables. Totalmente recomendado! (Original) Nice place with very good food and casual atmosphere. Food is interesting and delicious, stuff helpful and friendly. Totally recommended!

(Traducido por Google) Buen restaurante en una zona muy animada y fresca. El personal es realmente amable y servicial si no puedes decidir qué tomar, comida o bebida. El menú degustación es una buena manera de probar mucho desde el menú, pero tienes que venir muy hambriento ya que las porciones son bastante grandes. Así que el precio realmente vale la pena! El ambiente es muy informal y relajado. Definitivamente iré de nuevo. (Original) Good restaurant in a very lively and cool area. The staff is really friendly and helpful if you cant decide on what to have, food or drinks. The tasting menu is a good way of trying a lot from the menu, but you have to come very hungry as the portions are pretty big. So the price is really worth it! The atmosphere is very casual and relaxed. Will definitely go again.

Vom sehr freundlichen, professionellen und zuvorkommenden Servicepersonal, der Lage, über die Atmosphäre passt hier einfach alles. Ich erwähne hier nur am Rande, dass die Kreationen aus der Küche einfach unglaublich fein sind. Sharing is Caring ist hier das Motto. Die Gerichte sind eher klein, damit man mehrere bestellt und sie dann teilt.Leider haben sie Sonntags geschlossen. -Das ist schade.Aber sonst... Eine Perle in Zürich.

(Traducido por Google) Comida muy sabrosa y saludable, buen equipo, gran ambiente acogedor. (Original) Very tasty and healthy food, nice team, great cozy atmosphere

(Traducido por Google) Buen restaurante con un personal amable, comido en forma de los "platos compartidos" - te tiene que gustar ... Se recomiendan 2 platos por persona para el "hambre normal". Los precios son incluso relativamente altos para los estándares de Zurich, los platos principales por plato a unos 20 a 36 francos - 4 estrellas para los platos buenos y variados y un servicio atento, deducción de 1 estrella para el precio en mi opinión no justificado ratio / rendimiento. (Original) Nettes Restaurant mit freundlichem Personal, gegessen wird in Form von "shared plates" - muss man mögen... Empfohlen werden 2 Gerichte pro Person bei "normalem Hunger". Die Preise sind selbst für Zürcher Verhältnisse relativ hoch, die Main dishes kommen pro Teller auf ca. 20 bis 36 Franken - 4 Sterne für die guten, abwechslungsreichen Gerichte und den aufmerksamen Service, 1 Stern Abzug für das in meinen Augen nicht ganz gerechtfertigte Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis.
