Great place. This is the place for fondue on Zurich. Hands down! Started with pumpkin soup which is seasonal. It had roasted pumpkin seeds which added to the taste. Had typical fondue with bread and potatoes. Perfect consistency throughout. We got the mild cheese but they had many stronger variations. Topped dinner off with the banana split which was served with warm chocolate sauce. Amazing! Finally, service was well above average. Our server, Alex, was friendly and attentive. Highly recommended! We showed up without a reservation and even though the place was packed, they found us a table really quickly. The service was excellent, and the fondue (the main reason we came) was absolutely spectacular, worth every penny! We also ordered a ribeye, but honestly it wasn’t our favorite, mainly because of the size and flavor (in America we’re used to larger portions, so my husband felt this one was a bit small). Other than that, the place is super cozy and the staff was really attentive. Like everything in Zurich, you do have to keep the prices in mind, but it’s totally worth it for the fondue experience. We ordered a fondue for three plus individual main dishes, and it was perfect. We had the classic cheese fondue and it came with a huge basket of bread. The cheese was fragrant with wine. We added grilled chicken. We had the Rosti with egg n cheese. Rosti was not crispy though Overall experience was fine. Nothing too fancy but I guess its quintessential swiss meal have re the fondue. We wanted a seat inside but do not have. Asked about how long it would take, the host , without checking inside, just told us she does not know. She could have checked the inside and let us have an idea. In the end we sat outside

⭐ 3/5 – Famous Cheese Fondue Spot in Zurich 🧀🇨🇭 🍽️ What We Ordered We came here to try the local cheese fondue, ordered the non-alcohol version, and added pickled vegetables and diced beef as side dishes. Do note that each person must order a main dish according to their table rule. 💧 Drinks & Prices The waiter asked if we preferred still or sparkling water — both are chargeable at CHF 9.50 per bottle. The cheese fondue costs CHF 36.50 per person, and since we only ordered three mains, we had to take two pax portions (CHF 73) for fondue. 💰 Food & Value The fondue was creamy and flavorful, but honestly, the price is on the higher side compared to portion size. 🕐 Timing & Queue We arrived around 11:50 AM, and a queue was already forming before the restaurant opened. We waited about 10 minutes to get a table. 👩🍳 Service Service could be improved. We noticed that some staff seemed to be racism, so we waited longer even though we arrived earlier. It was slightly disappointing ✨ Overall A nice place to experience traditional Swiss cheese fondue, but not a must-visit. There might be better spots in Zurich offering similar fondue with warmer service and better value.

I have been waiting to eat fondue in Zurich and we were not disappointed. Adler’s Swiss Chuchi was excellent! The flavor of the muiti-muiti fondue was delicious with unlimited bread. We also had onion soup with baked pastry and meat board. All cooked to perfection. The pastry on top of the onion soup was light and flaky and the soup was a delicate balance of onions and broth. Enjoyed it immensely!! Our server Tobias was friendly and attentive, and gave us wonderful food suggestions. Thank you.
