Blaue Ente - Réserver une table

Stay away if you have any food restrictions!! When we booked the table, we informed that I needed gluten-free food because I have celiac disease. Arrived, I communicated the fact very clearly to the gluten-free options. The waiter elencate her in Swiss German when I already asked if he could speak English without showing her on the menu. Finally we order, I double check with the waiter 2 times that my order is gluten-free and it confirms. I get my first course, a tartar, without bread, because even if they knew someone with celiac disease, this night did not even come 1 piece of GF bread. But whatever. The second course comes, I ordered the lamb, really pretty. I started eating and realized that the cover tasted delicious. Before I take another bite, I ask the waiter whether it was really gluten-free. He confirms. But I see that he's running into the kitchen, which disturbs me because I already had a full bite of my meal. He comes back, not even in a hurry and tells me that my meal has gluten, not only the bread on the top, but also the meat was prepared with gluten ingredients! At this point I panic, knowing that 1 whole bite of bread formation would cause me 2 weeks of rash, pain, cramps, etc. plus the immunological consequences that come with the triggering of an autoimmune disease. Because yes, Zöliakie is an autoimmune disease and the restaurant solved my disease by feeding me gluten! It's not a joke and I would expect people to work in hospitality, how dangerous it can be. If I were allergic to fish and the guy would confirm it wasn't fish sauce in my meal??? Anyway, they offered me another record in exchange, but at this point I knew I had a maximum of 20 minutes before I felt sick, so I refused the offer. I waited for my friends to finish their meal (it is sad because the quality of food is good. Even if the white wine was served without something to keep it cool, but whatever) and we asked for the bill. After they poisoned me, they told me I didn't have to pay the meal I couldn't eat. Thank you for not coming to GET POISONED when I told you in advance and checked twice and three times in the restaurant. In 6 people, we paid almost 500 CHF to poison a person. Great. If you have allergies or celiac disease, stay away from there before they try to kill someone else.

I've often been for lunch and dinner at the Blue Duck and the experience was always positive, but the last lunch was not so great. Atmosphere and service was very good, but the choice of food was very moderate. A lot of strange dishes. I ordered the keviche and the Risotto. I guess the quality of the ingredients was good, but both dishes had practically no taste and I had to add a lot of pepper and salt.... Maybe it's just my taste, but my business partners had quite the same experience. I understand the urge to be different from other restaurants, but please make sure that the guest really likes the food. My proposal is less imagination with names of dishes and ingredients, but also make sure that the dishes taste good. Nevertheless, I come back and hope to see some improvements

We were there on Wednesday night in August 2021. The location is really nice and close to Lake Zurich. Although I have to say there is no lake view, we already knew. Food was delicious and not too expensive for a cozy restaurant in the city. All ingredients seem too local based on the description at the end of the menu, which is a great plus I think! The staff was super nice and professional, they pay attention to details, but were never inappropriate. There is also a parking lot near the entrance, which is also really appreciated in Zurich. Of course, the parking is not free. I would definitely recommend this place and visit it again soon!

What a wonderful find. Loved the location, the ambiance, the service, and most definitely the food. We tried a number of dishes and the only one I would shy away from is the Kalbswienerschnitzel. At 51 CHF, it didn’t live up to my expectation. Not withstanding, we’ll return and can certainly recommend this restaurant without reservation.

I love this restaurant, the service and the food were always impeccable. I have organized a team dinner here and again, it was faultless, in fact, my team are now all the big fans of this restaurant. I even bring my family here when they visit cannot praise the Blue Duck (Blue Duck) enough.
