Börni's Baizli — Restaurant in Zurich

A homey little restaurant found in google search. As it has very good reviews so went to try with my colleagues as we wanted fondue. With no disappointment, I highly recommend Borni's Baizli!!! Dishes were delicious with good enough portion for sharing or having by yourself. The fondue was yummy and good to go with a glass beer or white wine. The chef cum restaurant owner was extremely nice and friendly man. He cooked and served us and even came back to check on us while we were eating to make sure everything's fine.

One of them even bought us a shot of cherry liquor each to show their hospitality. Will definitely go back again as the restaurant on the whole are very welcoming!!! Thank...

I know life as a restaurant owner can be stressful, but this is not an excuse for frankly indecent behavior towards guests. I would not bring...

I had a great experience here. Came in on a Wednesday at 12 noon, caught the owner a little bit by surprise because I didn’t make a reservation but didn’t know one was needed. Turned out he didn’t really have all the specific ingredients for the meat platter that I ordered but he was kind enough to immediately offer some great substitutes so that we could still eat right away, and he was very helpful and friendly once he learned we were tourists and that we were trying Swiss Fondue for the first time. He made us feel really welcome and gave us very helpful instructions on how to best enjoy the meal and how to heat the fondue to an adequate and perfect temperature and not to...
