Isabelle from Zurich

Hi, I am Isabelle, a Swiss native, made in the 80ies. I have a soft spot for wine, books and sarcasm. When I’m not geeking out over grape facts or losing myself in a novel, you’ll find me chasing nature vibes or hunting urban gems. Spotted by Locals has been in my life for well over a decade. It all began in 2011 with a Spotted by Locals guide to Marseille. SbL became a steadfast comp...

Restaurant Kreis 6 Zurich

For epicureans in hood 6

"Restaurant Kreis 6 focuses on fresh, timeless dishes like Pulpo salad and Wiener Schnitzel. Enjoy al fresco dining on its beautiful terrace!"

It was hard to let this secret slip, but as they say, sharing is caring — and that's what Spotted by Locals is all about.

Right in the heart of District 6 (hence the name), this Mediterranean restaurant is truly one of Zurich’s inside scoops. Not focused on trends, it instead prioritizes quality, freshness and timeless appeal. The dishes are perfectly prepared, without any fuss or pretence (or "Chichi," as we say in Swiss German). Beloved house classics are Pulpo fennel salad, Wiener Schnitzel or chocolate soufflé (with a melting middle — making me drool at the time of writing).

Besides its delicious market cuisine, I head to Kreis 6 because it has the most beautiful terrace with a lush green arbor. It's just perfect for al fresco dining. Don’t miss it!
