Food Scene

Great Italian cuisine, and family ambiance. No reservations and very popular. For dinner, if you go early, as in before 18:45, service is lightning fast. Prices are not cheap, but what is in Geneva.

A simple formula. Fast service around the horseshoe counter. Top quality pizza, pasta or salad. I normally go for pizza (Angelo). Thin base, great toppings, splash of chili oil, delicious! Cash only.

Arguably the best fondue in town! Excellent seasonal menu, great beautiful terrace, prefer the tables for at the top floor, but make sure to reserve! A nice place for a chilled out lunch or dinner.

I rarely eat out at Indian restaurants as I get the best authentic Indian cuisine at home - seriously. Yet I was happy with this one. The service is friendly and the food is tasty with fair portions.

Fancy Vietnamese? Comparatively inexpensive for Geneva and you get an OK service. I order chicken Pho (you can also get duck). It comes in a bowl, with rice noodles in fragrant broth and vegetables.

The place has great atmosphere, beautiful jazz and some pretty nice artwork adorning the walls. I get the signature salad - basic chopped up vegetables with chunks of lard and yummy salad dressing!

One of the few places in Geneva where you can get bagels. They also have sandwiches made to order on delicious fresh breads along with a nice selection of salads and freshly squeezed fruit juices.
