Sher-E-Punjab — Restaurant in Zurich

Went there with my wife on August 12th. As per our order elderly Sardarji served us freshly cooked matar paneer and 7 tawa rotis. Total order cost was a bit pricey at 47 CHF. There was a young guy (I think his son/grandson) who seemed a bit rude. When I asked for water he said you can take bottles from the fridge. I said I need plain water. To this he rudely replied "Wo ni dette" ("We don't serve that") turned back and went away. I mean come on, Zurich's tap water is drinkable and it wouldn't cost you money to serve some if specially asked by someone and that too by a co-countryman. Whatever happened to our Indian Hospitality.

Anyways since the food was good and we wanted to have indian food and another nearby indian restaurant didn't serve Tawa Roti so we came here on the second day too(August 13th). We had just returned from Engelberg with our bagpacks so We had our own water bottle with us this time. After taking order, The older gentleman Sardarji suddenly came and rudely said "Apna Paani peena allowed nahi hai".("You are not allowed to drink your own water here") I just asked normally "I am not even allowed to drink water from my own bottle?" Sardarji rudely fired back "Ab aise to apna khana bhi laake khaane lag jaaoge yahan". ("Likewise you will also bring your own food here to eat") I was like what the hell? Is there no difference between food and water? And why be so rude? Someone visited your restaurant consecutively on second day No hello, No courtesy, nothing and you are stopping him to drink water even from his own bottle. Not even posh restaurants in Paris, Zurich or Milan do that. No wonder this restaurant remained empty most of the time when we passed by during the coarse of our 3 day...

We typically don't eat Indian food when traveling outside of India, but we needed our fix of Indian food. There was no one else there but we still decided to try the place based on the reviews. Food was definitely pre-cooked and just heated before being served. The dal was good. The chicken was okay. The rice tasted stale and the roti was okay. Paid 65 francs for the meal which seemed normal given everything else in Zurich. Only one older gentleman was working and doing everything. Don't know how other Indian restaurants compare to this one in Zurich, but I would say it wasn't that great. Go because you would be helping a nice gentleman who needs...

It was my first day in Zurich, and after searching for an Indian restaurant around me, I was delighted to have found Sher E Punjab at just a walkable distance. But to my dismay, when I reached there, the host a Sikh family was very arrogant and didn't welcome us with a smile but made us feel that we had come to eat at their place for free. I ignored and ordered my food, and we say about food, whatever is sent is a blessing of God, and we should eat it with respect, and I just did that. The food wasn't up to the mark. I would say this place is an avoid without any Sarcastic remark on the food. Please...
