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.

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.

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.
