About us
Our restaurant is located in Zurich Wipkingen, in the immediate vicinity of Wipkingenplatz and the GZ Wipkingen, on the banks of the river Limmat. The house looks back on a long gastronomic tradition: built in 1930, the restaurant “Grüntal” was established and has been in operation ever since. In its long history of more than 80 years, it has served countless guests from near and far.
Over the years, the cuisine at “Grüntal” has changed from traditional Swiss to European and Asian specialities. Now the restaurant continues its culinary journey in India. From now on, the restaurant “Grüntal” will spoil you with the culinary art of India as “Indian BBQ”!
We are proud to continue the tradition of the restaurant. Our team will do everything to make you feel at home in the “Grüntal” and guarantees excellent authentic Indian cuisine.
