The 33 Essential Zurich Restaurants

"Lai Siam is a little bit out of the way for anyone in central Zurich, but with Swiss public transportation, getting uphill to the Thai restaurant is a breeze. It’s a quieter dinner than you might have in Altstadt or along the lake, but no less delicious. The kitchen turns out excellent noodles, fried rice, and papaya salad. Be sure to try the plaa nung manau, a whole fish steamed with garlic and lime, which flakes gently apart at the slightest touch." - N.A. Mansour

Colorful and tasty Thai restaurant. I was here for dinner and enjoyed the salad with shrimps and Jungle Thai curry with beef. Both dishes were good, although a little bit more quantity would have been nice for the price, which is fair, but slightly above what I had in mind. Service was very friendly. The place is quite unique, in bright pink and full of Thai décor. There are a few seats and many were available on a weekday night. Good for couples or going with a small group of friends.

New shop from experienced thai restaurant owner. The mixed appetizers were tasty, with various kinds - satay, fried wonton, etc. The service is done partly by the owner herself, totally friendly. There are around 7-10 tables indoor. You can book in advance as well. The parking is behind the building. The menu has enough main dishes variety. I'd recommend to try. The location is superb as well, just in front of milchbuck tram station. Recommend to try 👍

Authentic little please with convenient parking right up front. Appetizers where great but the some of the main dish were not amazing. Service was great but it did take a hot min for the food to arrive. Pictures on the menu was helpful but for English speaking folks it was not really enough.

We only went for starters and a beer. I had spring rolls and my friend had fried Wanton, which I also tried. Both picks for sure were worth it. The main dishes sounded very good also and I can't imagine that it wouldn't be good.

First visit: Chill atmosphere and amazing food. This place is a gem in Zurich! We will surely come again. Second visit: I came again with friends (group of 8). Everything was perfect! The pad thai with duck was delicious.
