Hi English Forumers,

For the meat-eaters in Zürich, I would like to share ideas regarding the best place to have a good steak here! One of my best surprises until today was the Eisenhof near Langstrasse (super steaks on hot stones), but I am sure some of you have better ideas, w/ budget?

Thank's in advance!

Alexandre

best piece of meat is in langstrasse? i guess that makes sense

i heard there is a very good place also in oerlikon.

Most likely either

or

while in Zürich downtown, this one
http://www.churrasco.ch/
is to be mentioned

and up the lake on the Western side in Oberrieden is

for sure one of the best restaurants around

and in Dübendorf, I recently by chance detected (not yet tried it)
http://steakhouse-texas.ch/kontakt.html
which looks really good

Maybe a bit off topic but i read the other day that SWEG Südwestdeutsche Verkehrs – Aktiengesellschaft runs a bus service from Zürich to the shopping center in Weil and Lörrach and back. Tenderlion in Migros 20-odd CHuff's in marktkauf 5euros topps.
Maybe an idea for a day trip?

...even better, safari animals are in the 3.5kg customs-free category, not the 500g one!

Roaaaaaar!

Got to be Rollis in Oerlikon or Kloten, but I prefer the former. I am a regular. It does a variety of steaks, not just beef, on hots stones with great chips ( UK type). It's not cheap ( but also not usual Zurich prices) but it is fair value for the quality. Suggest you book as many people are turned away who turn up on spec.

I had the best steak ever at Goodman.

It was really amazing.

This may well be, but when looking at their menu, it is obvious that their prices are exorbitant, and miles above my budget.

Totally agree went there when it opened first and number of times after was not cheap but fantastic food and service.
One of things i miss from zurich

Yeah, and really expensive too

True, expensive but worth trying. We went once for a special occasion and had no regrets.

Went to Hawksmoor Covent Garden with a mate and shared the 900g bone-in ribeye.

Was truly amazing, and it hurts to see how expensive steaks are in the Zurich....

I wonder if Zürich has an equivalent for the TasteCard.

The trial I took up was really worth it.

Goodman comes very highly recommended from everybody I ask, will be checking it out ASAP. the prices look to be pretty much the same as any high-end steakhouse back in the States, steak is just about the only thing I never go cheap on.

I dunno; asking someone else to cook my steak for me is never a comfortable experience. I prefer to cook them myself rather than handing them over to another man to fondle and get wrong...

Ps, great meat at Hornecker's at Albisriederplatz in Zurich. They know how to hang and how to cut.

900 grams ?? do you mean per person

While I may easily spend as much for a good Shawarma Kebab (Döner Kebab) or Shish Kebab, I would not for a Steak.

I agree! Had the most amazing steak there 800gm on the bone Ribeeye with a side of bone marrow and hand cut chips. WOW!

Try and look for LUMA Beef. It's an innovative Swiss product which is not too easy to come across.

Hand picked cuts of Beef are dry aged on the bone 5-7 weeks with a special Mould which matures over it under laboratory conditions. You can compare the results to how wine and cheese improves with aging. Not cheap though but good!
