Stepping into Angkor Restaurant in Zurich is like being whisked away to an exotic paradise 🌺. From the moment we entered, the stunning decor captivated us – a harmonious blend of rich reds, intricate golds, and traditional art that set the stage for an unforgettable dining experience.
The service? Simply impeccable! Waitstaff dressed in elegant traditional attire greeted us warmly and ensured that every detail was attended to with a professional touch. I particularly appreciated the thoughtful gesture of handling our plates with clean napkins – a small but significant nod to their commitment to hygiene and fine dining.
Now, onto the feast! We began our culinary journey with the Chicken Satay, which came with a peanut sauce so divine it could have been a meal on its own 🥜. My wife savored her Virgin Mojito, a refreshing concoction that perfectly complemented her Nüa Pad Prig Thai Orn (Thai chili beef) 🥩🌶️. The beef was tender, with just the right amount of spice to make her taste buds dance.
I opted for their signature Angkor Cocktail 🍹, a delightful mix that set the tone for my main course – the Nüa Pad Thai. The flavors were a symphony of sweet, sour, and savory, each bite leaving me craving more. What truly elevated the experience were the high risers used for serving – not only did they add a touch of elegance, but they also kept our dishes warm throughout the meal.
And let's talk about those plates! Each one was a work of art, meticulously designed and changing with every course. It was like dining in a palace, where every detail was crafted to perfection. The beautiful ceramic dishes were almost too pretty to eat from – almost!
In summary, Angkor Restaurant offers more than just a meal; it’s a luxurious dive into Thai culinary artistry, wrapped in an atmosphere of serene elegance. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in a night out, this gem in Zurich promises an exquisite experience that will leave you with a heart full of joy and a belly full of...
Read moreI came here for my birthday with friends and made a reservation a month in advance. I mainly wanted to come for karoake as it is listed on the website, but sadly it does not exist anymore (please update your website!).
The staff seemed pretty stressed out. I ordered two bottles of champagne for my table and the staff forgot to pour one glass for a guest.
I wanted to order the mixed dim sum for the table and asked how many people does it feed. I guess the staff thought I and others asked how many pieces because they answered “for four”. As we were ten people I ordered two orders. The staff came back with four plates only and the two baskets of four pieces of tiny dumplings. We had to order another two and an additional appetizer to feed everyone.
After we all ordered our food and received it, we did not receive enough plates. The staff seemed angry that we asked more than once for plates because he said I know, as he poured our drinks we ordered after we asked for plates.
We all ordered dessert and finished it. Afterward the staff came and brought me the same dessert I ordered, and sang happy birthday. I was a bit confused, but also questioning why did you not present me this dessert before me ordering it 😂
It seems a bit unorganized here as there were a lot of guests and perhaps because we were a table of 10. Food was good but I would not come...
Read moreFirst off: This restaurant is WAY overpriced for the bad quality of food it offers. I paid 17.- for TWO chicken spring rolls. The "chicken" was an undefinable minced mass inside the spring roll and did NOT taste good. As main I got peking duck. It was somwhat chewy and made the impression that it was cooked some other time and just warmed up. The duck was sliced and served with vegetables. At least three of the duck slices were inedible. I mean unchewable. Like they were mostly made out of cartillage or other duck parts that are not meant to be eaten. Everything was DRENCHED in a sauce, which in my opinion was NOT asian at all. It tasted like they made a base sauce with gravy powder and threw in a few (really really FEW) spices and fresh coriander. Basically Gravy Sauce. Nothing about that said "Peking" to me. Duck was priced about 35.-. The location was nice and the waitress ok, but if I go to a restaurant I go there to eat and I regret not getting a cheap take-away. It would have been way cheaper and...
