Zur Werkstatt in Luzern

Always worth a visit. Beautiful location with a great and innovative concept. Great cocktails. Nice and attentive service. Great food and very great wines. Update March 28, 2024: We will be back. The ambience, the concept and the service are as convincing as on the first day. Laura was a perfect host! Attentive but not intrusive. Open and authentic. Warm without seeming artificial. A nice evening. Thanks! We'll be back, promise.

There is nothing wrong here. All around great. Great evening spent with great people in a beautiful restaurant!

A small, sweet restaurant with very attentive and friendly service. There was a choice between a meat or a meat-free menu and an additional intermediate course and dessert. The main course was even topped up again if you still liked it. Basically really very good, the only point of criticism is that dinner there is very expensive, but you should treat yourself to it. I would highly recommend it.

Everything was great at the Samsung Brunch

The service is good and friendly. The ambience - not surprisingly - is right. The workshop concept doesn't quite deliver what it promises. The main course tastes good. The salad gets the rating “ordinary”. Carelessly prepared. One could have expected more. The price for the vegetarian version is massively inflated. Notabene half a zuchini stuffed with couscous: 54 including salad. The workshop can only be recommended to a limited extent.

Imaginative and super fine menus. Great ambience: a bit like being at friends' homes.

Everything was just perfect. Thanks to the great team

Well, it all takes far too long given that there is only one menu. The portions are small but way too expensive. You get salad dressing in mini bottles in very small portions and have to reorder 3 times for 6 people. What kind of concept is that? Not recommended 👎

Funny concept, friendly atmosphere and delicious food. What more do you want?

The food is excellent and prepared with a lot of love. Very special how the salad is served and the extras on a separate plate. Price and quality match.

My fiancé and I 👩🏼‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏽 had dinner in the workshop last night and it just blew us away! From the ambience🕯️ to the friendly service staff👩🏽‍🍳 to the food 🥘 everything was perfect! An absolutely wonderful and homely place that I can recommend to everyone! I'm from Lucerne, but I didn't know the restaurant 🤦🏼‍♀️... Now we'll come back! The drinks 🍹 were fantastic too! ✨ Thanks to Jasmin and Nando for the great hospitality and a compliment to the kitchen 🧡

It's a very great restaurant with exceptionally delicious food. What I liked most was the attention to detail; Ambiance, concept, friendly & courteous service. The menus are also sophisticated and the eyes also eat. Can only recommend this restaurant. Keep it up!

Very friendly staff. Fine food and great ambience. You can see what's happening from the seat directly into the kitchen.. I'll definitely go back...

Very pleasant dining experience with an open kitchen. A menu with refill options. Due to allergies, an alternative menu is offered.

Nice atmosphere and delicious food. The sharing-concept was great. A bit expensive but it is worth a try ☺️

Very, very good food, great service, we will definitely be back.

It's a pleasure to eat here: super friendly staff, very fine food, a different kind of concept and a nice ambience.

Very cool restaurant, with excellent cuisine! Gluten-free is also possible, the team works super quietly and accurately right in front of the guests. I can only recommend the restaurant for company dinners, for a cozy get-together but also for a family dinner. The staff is also particularly friendly and accommodating! 10 out of 10 definitely, I'll be back. #glutenfree #celiac disease #Lucerne

We booked the cocktail course as part of a bachelorette party. It was simply brilliant. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, explained everything to us in detail, then we were able to mix and drink our favorite drink ourselves under instructions. There was also a fine aperitif with chips, meat and cheese platter. At the end there was a recipe book with lots of drinks to make at home. The atmosphere is super cozy, very tastefully decorated. Everything is really TOP!!!

Too little choice. Greetings from the kitchen are sensational

We attended the cocktail course at Nando's as part of a hen day program. It was an incredibly fun and educational afternoon.

Great concept, delicious food and nice staff

It was our business team event. We had to prepare our 3-course menu ourselves under the guidance of the chef. We were given aprons with additional tasks written on them (in addition to cooking). Great experience, the food was great, we had a lot of fun. So only recommended. Price performance menu and drinks top. Young team, nice atmosphere. Not too big, I really liked it too. You have to make a reservation otherwise it will be difficult to find a place. Definitely going back again.

Really a very filling brunch. Lots of fruit, fresh egg dishes, good juices. It's worth checking out.

Food top Service top Highly recommended.

Incredibly delicious, innovative creations.

Friendly, delicious food, good wines... We were able to spend an unforgettable evening with friends in the workshop. We will be back.... Ps: Priced at the upper limit.

Original, good food, very nice atmosphere

Great concept and very tasty food

We enjoyed it. You scoop your own food from a plate. Prices are rather high, but still within reason. We would come again.

Very central, friendly and attentive staff, attractive ambience, two menus with exquisite food with appropriate first-class ingredients, a little expensive but very worth it. Gladly again. Thank you very much

Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, I haven't been there for 4 years because it's about 500 kilometers away. Thank God nothing has changed. Great food, great quality and great cocktails. Please keep it up.

Top restaurant. Everything was fine and the staff was very friendly. With show kitchen :-)

Really cool little nook with a delicious set menu, unique open kitchen layout, and pleasant service.

Beautifully decorated store in a prime location. Suitable for everyone. The food was excellent and the staff was extremely accommodating. Gladly again! 😋

Great concept, very nice and easy to use👌👌👌✌️

Have only been there at lunchtime so far. Super friendly service, really tasty food, 3 courses for 25.- just great 👌 you can even get seconds 😉

Wonderful restaurant with courteous, great service. There is a menu in the evening that you can create yourself. The greeting from the kitchen comes in a box that is mounted on the table. We had a great evening!

The whole atmosphere is special and worth a visit. The way the food is served is really cool. The food was tasty, sufficient, but unfortunately our meat was a bit tough. I will eat there again.

Top. Food and service! Ambiance with top sound, chillhouse and dance. To recommend!

Great concept, very good food and friendly service. Ideal location (3 minutes from Lucerne train station)

I can highly recommend this to the workshop. It's a cozy little restaurant that serves delicious food. What I would like to highlight are the very friendly and attentive service staff. We felt completely comfortable. I would love to come back.

Great concept and great cuisine

We tried the Saturday brunch and absolutely loved it. A lovingly prepared breakfast buffet, Prosecco a disrétion, advertised as "small", but actually a very sumptuous lunch and a mega fine dessert. Plus the friendly service and the atmospheric ambience of the workshop. Excellent!

Pleasant and friendly, that's how I experienced it. Eating experience as you can watch the chefs. Passes by👍

We went to the cooking class. Very good recipes, great support, good equipment. It tasted very good. Highly recommended!

Excessively expensive. Price performance questionable.

Very nicely decorated and the food is very tasty. We'll be back again.

Everything was perfect. Thank you

Unique experience, would love to do it again.

Super cool concept: a single menu every day that changes daily. You can get as much as you like. On the one hand it's food-friendly and on the other hand it's like being at home. The staff is super friendly, accommodating & personable. I would love to come back often. Bravo! The lunch menu price included water (including syrup mixture), salad, main course and dessert.

very special concept & good food. The lighting outside is unfortunately poor, but otherwise recommended.

Well thought-out concept, young, friendly, committed crew, very good food, fresh and prepared with love, recommended for everyone who likes to be surprised. We would love to come back 👍

Good food and value for money is okay

Wonderful and filling Saturday morning brunch

Great time with colleagues at this restaurant where the service was really good as was the meat and the Spanish wine.

Very courteous service. The menu is fresh and regional. If you're hungry you can get more for free. The Vienna menu is small but fine and has a fine wine for every taste.

Interesting meal concept centered around work box. Prix fixe which is ok. First and salad was good. Meat w main was amazing. Sides ok. Veggie main (some sort of pattie) was very disappointing.

Good salads! Excellent attention.

It's always exciting to see what's on the menu. A different salad dressing would also be a surprise.

Very friendly and attentive staff. The food was fantastic!

Friendly staff, funny ideas, delicious food, but it also has its price.

Super delicious brunch with everything you want. Followed by a small lunch with dessert. Very friendly service. Nobody goes home hungry.

Good idea of ​​this concept. The food is very good. The employees very friendly.

over priced, avg quality, long wait time! we opted for vegeterian option which was deep fried cheese, the frozen stuff you can get dirt cheap from your local market. 48 CHf for that!

Interesting and unusual dish combinations, great insight into the kitchen, unfortunately the washing up is clearly audible (by hand).

Great ambience, great food, great people, great system. Changing menu depending on season etc.

Absolute recommendation! Great service, incredibly good food and ambience. Thank you for a lovely evening.

We were in the workshop for the second time and were again very satisfied! The mix-your-own salad was great, the salad dressing was brilliant. The main course (fillet with creamy polenta and oven-roasted vegetables) was also great: the fillet was very tender and the polenta was the secret star of the evening.

I was able to celebrate my birthday in the workshop - everything was perfect: great ambience, beautifully set tables, attentive and experienced service specialists, fantastic food and delicious wine. Many thanks to Jasmin and the team, you are great! We can only recommend the workshop.

The food is overpriced. The service wasn't particularly friendly and the waiting times were long. The vegetarian option was risotto with aranchini (fried rice balls) with vegetables. We found this combination of risotto with rice a bit strange. The vegetables were rather bland. What was really delicious was the green salad. The colleagues who had the meat menu also found it rather mediocre. Dessert was cheesecake, but was also quite a disappointment. The place smelled extremely like fried meat because we were sitting right in front of the kitchen. None of us thought that was that great either. Wouldn't go there anymore.

Funny concept. The salad was particularly excellent.

Nice restaurant, friendly staff, creative cuisine.

Great atmosphere and nice staff

We had dinner there for Valentine's Day. The food was simply amazing. From the appetizer to the drinks and the perfect ending with dessert. One of the best experiences I have ever had. Every dish was on a different level in terms of taste. I rarely write reviews, but I had to make an exception here because I was so pleasantly surprised. Many thanks to the kitchen and the service!

Great workshop concept, delicious brunch and super friendly staff. The homemade bread and jams were delicious! Cozy atmosphere… This is how you start the weekend :-)

The two of us enjoyed a very fine menu and very friendly, prompt service. The meat was extremely tender and fine, the vegetables were still crunchy and the polenta was nice and creamy. In addition to the first portion, which was not too small, we received another supplement of almost the same size. We enjoyed it and will definitely come again. The only thing that was a bit negative was the greasy smell of the kitchen. But that probably can't be completely avoided if you eat directly in the workshop (kitchen).

We got the small table right next to the big table where “the boss” was sitting and doing stuff in her office. Firstly, the restaurant is not the office, secondly, she constantly spoke very loudly to the employees and discussed the menu with them. Very unprofessional. The condition instead of serving us they were busy with the ``woman``. Food: Salad like from a Migros bag. Main menu: Meat ok, rest a bit weak. Condition: insecure and reserved, a bit lost Tables: very small Price performance is not right

Price/performance is not right.

Great ambience, very well-positioned team, creative drinks and brilliant food... it's exciting to watch the chef at work in the kitchen, which is located in the dining room! We'd love to come back!

Very tasty food, friendly and attentive service. Deserves the title of experience gastronomy.

My husband found this on the internet because Lucerne was actually largely unknown to us. That was really a pure surprise. Very fine, special surprise menu. You could decide whether you wanted the menu with or without meat and within the menu whether you wanted the intermediate course or the dessert. Of the main course, which was super delicious by the way, you could get a snack if you wanted, but in my opinion the quantity was perfect. So, my husband and I enjoyed this wonderful evening. Highly recommended as the staff was also very friendly and accommodating!

Today's take away menu ("Fine from afar" - Braised beef ragout with Raz el Hanout) was a wonderful treat. We will be back!

Great evening, educational cooking class. Thank you!

Very good ambience and very good service. We cooked ourselves with a team, learned some tips and tricks and ate very well. The chef Yves makes an effort and is very hard-working, thank you very much and see you soon.

Don't think twice about going straight away... Absolutely worth a visit...

Great food and brilliant concept

Super-friendly service. Down-to-earth cuisine, interpreted in a contemporary way. Nice, rustic atmosphere. Gladly again!

Food was good and the service was friendly. However, the portions were rather small for the price and we had to ask for supplements so that we were full.

We had the workshop brunch. Super nice staff, great selection, great location, a cool concept and super tasty! 👍

Really great restaurant, great service!

It's a fantastic place in the heart of Luzern. The service is outstanding and the food is phenomenal! At dinner is choice between two prix fiche options. Creativity and quality go hand in hand! Must try!

Simple... Sensational meat and polenta can be enjoyed

Tasty, a bit high price but really tasty

Delicious, special restaurant. The price is a bit higher. Friendly service - not exactly the fastest - but flexible.

Very nice restaurant. For 25 francs the breakfast offer is very small, the selection is very small without meat on offer, it's a shame 😒😒😒

Food was superb and a supplement free of charge was offered. The ambience and concept are great as well. The real drawback was the mediocre service - working in hospitality myself I have to say that slamming down glasses - not once but all evening - and telling guests to read the menu when asked about ingredients is definitely not the way to go, it’s just plain rude. But who knows - maybe she just had a really really bad day... all in all we had a good time with our friends.

A unique, unforgettable evening that we were able to experience in the Genuss-Werkstatt. Everything was just right now. I'm already looking forward to the next time

The location and the ambience are really great! The cocktails were also fine and at a reasonable price. Unfortunately the waiter seemed very arrogant and you didn't feel welcome.

Very good service. Food prepared perfectly. Always my pleasure. Keep it up
