Very beautifully presented selection of amazing small plates. Great selection of wine, interesting starters to choose from, fancy salt, great bread, not-too crazy, but unique and interesting main courses.....everything was right with great attention to details. The person who took us there is the regular customer to this restaurant, so I think we also got treated a bit better than... More

Despite the change of chef. This restaurant totally deserves the Michelin and Gaut&Millaut rating. The staff was extremely friendly and discrete. The atmosphere is contemporary and stylish

The chef cook, Mr. Lindner, sadly soon is leaving restaurant, thus we went again for a last time (under the old cooking regime). Fantastic food including wonderful adaptions for vegetarians, a very well suited selection of wines for the wine accompaniment and several amuse-bouches and desserts. We will miss Mr. Lindner's delicious combinations and look forward to the new head... More

Having eaten in a large number of excellent restaurants,  it is rare   for us to come across a restaurant that is  refreshingly amazing . We arrived in Zurich, which is surprisingly not noted for great restaurants ( one of its famous restaurants is more famous  for its art than culinary achievement)  We consulted our Michelin guide and picked the latest...

This was a proper gastronomic experience. We opted for the 7 course degustation menu with matching wines - I would definitely recommend this. The service was impecable - polite, friendly, extremely observant and yet not intrusive at all. The food was outstanding and clearly the restaurant deserves it's two Michelin stars - the flavours were intense and beautifully balanced. And... More

We had a perfect experience at Mesa. From the service making our reservation via email through to the amazing food and friendly, efficient hospitality it is hard to find fault with any of it. Expensive yes, but we certainly got what we paid for; seven+ courses with matching wines and service I have not encountered anywhere else in Switzerland. Highly... More

You go there for a culinary experience rather than a meal. Delicate food, plenty of small bits of everything, interesting wines that are selected to go in small quantity with every dishes.

I must confess that I am not generally a fan of avant guard cooking. So Mesa started off with a strike against it. But they did entertain me and the quality and attention to detail was impressive. Said another way, unlike most of the modernists, they pulled it off
