The most culinarily ambitious of Zürich's many Zunfthaus (historic guild hall) dining places, this fine restaurant is also the most architecturally spectacular, combining a wooden barrel-vaulted ceiling and 30-foot beams. Slick modern improvements—including a glassed-in elevator—manage to blend intelligently with the ancient decor and old-world chandeliers. Innovative entrées might include cream of parsley soup with snails, or duck breast in honey ginger sauce. The river views are especially impressive at night; ask for a window table.

While the room is amazing the food is just OK, especially for the price. We dined here Sept. 2008.
