"This diminutive noodle bar is the kind of place you would recommend to a good friend. The place has an authentically Japanese feel, thanks to the charming and traditional Far Eastern decorative touches, vibrant atmosphere and polite service, not to mention the fresh, authentic cuisine. The udon (noodles) are a must – with or without broth. Or perhaps you're in the mood for donburi (rice bowls), available here with vegetables, fried chicken or raw salmon with wasabi dressing. You can choose to supplement your meal withippin– small dishes such as wakame salad or sashimi omakase. Our tip for cooler days: a house sake – served warm!" - Michelin Inspector

Lovely food and atmosphere. The service was very friendly and fast. Everything was very authentic and I'm happy to find such a place in Switzerland. It felt like I was eating in Japan! Will come again.

Delicious Japanese food! There are various options, also vegetarian! Both the noodles and the rice are amazing. The price is very good, especially considering the quality and the big portions. The restaurant is on the smaller side (and so a bit chaotic maybe), but it is well decorated and very colourful. It is a nice place where to have lunch. The service is polite and friendly.

Super friendly, helpful and fast service. Despite the digital ordering and machines being out of service, they were still swift with the service and apologetic. Food came out quickly, and portions of noodles were bigger than expected. From reading reviews, we thought it would be too little food. But we had more than enough with the noodle bowls alone. And also got starters. Udon was perfect, we tried the Japanese curry noodles without broth and veggie udon with broth. Natto beans was a very odd stringy texture, never tried it before. Chicken karaage pieces were large and filling. And they have cloudy, unfiltered sake here, which is hard to find in Zurich Japanese restaurants - yum!! Wonderful terrace seating, just a block from the bustle of Bahnhofstrasse yet calm and enjoyable for dining. They even brought little kids chopsticks and kids fork for our son. They could improve for kids food options by offering a kids menu (smaller portions of karaage or plain noodles, for example).

Staff were not very welcoming, maybe because they were overwhelmed by the workload? There was no menu or qr code of “food and drinks” on our table at first(which they got it on every table except ours), so I went to ask for the menu. The staff totally misunderstood what I said in English, and started warning us not to move to an outdoor table by ourselves because it would rain soon, she didn’t put us there, and this restaurant was not free-seating. Meanwhile I was just asking for a menu after sitting there for 5 minutes, left unattended. Cannot be more confusing. For the Karaage Chicken Don, it tasted like an cheap instant meal. Everything in the bowl was barely warm. And for the ebi udon, it was average. The broth had an overly strong ginger taste. In this price range, higher quality food is expected. In conclusion, food was way overpriced compared to the taste, and I can receive a better service from a food truck than here. Instead of trying hard to make the restaurant look like a Japanese one, how about try harder to actually earn the taste of Japanese food and the service of Japanese people.

The Best Japanese Foods 🍜 in Zurich, Switzerland We can't book a spot on the website since it's already fully booked. So, we're heading over to see if we can get in straight by any chance—it's only a minute's walk from Ruby Mimi. This place is a Michelin-starred Japanese noodle bar, and the service is top-notch. Once we sit down, they bring us hot, fragrant towels, which really makes us feel refreshed. 温 きつね kitsune (without Tenkasu: V) - 26 Japanese mushrooms, fried tofu, leek, tenkasu The noodles are amazing—super chewy, smooth, and taste like freshly made. The soup is really comforting. The flavour is spot on; not overly salty. It reminds me of happiness home of taste, and I absolutely loved it! 温 スイス swiss - 25 Eggs (raw&onsen), cream, Gruyère AOC, bacon, nori, roast onions, spring onions When you're in Switzerland, you definitely to try the cheese. we went for a Swiss cheese bowl of noodles, it was a super rich and creamy. For those who appreciate a robust flavour in their cheese bowl, this dish is well-suited to your palate. The addition of bacon provides a delightful enhancement, complementing the noodles exceptionally well. After enjoying the bowl, consider sipping sencha green tea followed by matcha mochi; this combination serves as the perfect way to achieve a harmonious balance. The flavour of Japanese green tea its authentic grassy fresh teas, just like I have at home. We drink tea every day, and there’s nothing quite like relaxing with a cup in hand. The Japanese mochi has a delightful chewy texture, wrapping around matcha ice cream that strikes a great balance. The matcha flavor is just right, and I really like that it’s a firm ice cream rather than the softer varieties. 1 pot for 2 - sencha tea - 13 1 pc flavour of choice - 5 Thin mochi layer with matcha ice cream filling. Tsuru tsuru noodlebar spot in Zurich is amazing; it really captures the authentic flavour of Japan. I've been a fan of Japanese snacks and foods and teas, since I was a kid. I have a deep appreciation for Japanese cuisine, especially the authentic dishes found around the world, not just in Japan. We relied on our UK debit card for all our Swiss Franc transactions in Switzerland, which is a completely cashless city of Zurich. It made traveling around Europe so much easier for us! The total for our lunch comes to 69 Swiss Francs. (£62). It is definitely worthwhile! The team at Tsuru Tsuru Noodlebar is highly skilled and maintains professionalism, even during peak hours. When I visit Zurich again, I’m definitely hitting this spot up. The noodles are amazing, the Japanese teas are excellent, plus, the service, atmosphere is great.

Fantastic little gem just off the main run off the busy Bahnhofstraße. After reading great reviews we arrived as a group of 3 ( 2 adults and a 7 year old) on the off chance we might get a table whilst in town late Saturday afternoon. The place was clearly already quite busy but our luck was in and we were seated by a super friendly waiter close to the bar. The menu is small but the food was phenomenal, super fresh ingredients and very little wait time. My daughter’s sashimi was fresh and delicious, my husband and I had soup to start ( me Miso, he noodle) and both were served hot and delicious. Mains were equally incredible and whilst I really enjoyed my fried chicken dish my husband’s pork belly dish was far and away the best I’ve ever tasted! And I don’t usually like pork belly! The decor and set up is really authentic and reminiscent of an actual Tokyo noodle house and my daughter loved the plain soda and of course the the 2 franc pot luck toy vending machines 😊We tried a Japanese beer which we hadn’t had before and it didn’t disappoint. The place filled up very quickly but we were never overlooked and were well looked after by staff throughout. They were friendly with our daughter and clearly passionate about the menu, the ingredients and Japanese culture. We can’t wait to come back!

Great location, fast service, people inside are nice, and food was fantastic. They also have vegan broth and a lot of vegetarian options. Would highly recommend
