Casa Aurelio

Great Food and Recommended, Despite Some Shortcomings

Rating: 4.5 Stars

I recently dined at this restaurant and had an overall positive experience. The food served was excellent, living up to its reputation. The flavors were rich, the ingredients fresh, and the presentation was impressive. It's safe to say that the culinary aspect of this establishment is its highlight.

However, I did encounter a couple of areas that could use improvement. Firstly, the service was a bit aggressive. The staff seemed hurried and somewhat pushy at times, which created a slightly uncomfortable atmosphere. A more relaxed and friendly approach would have enhanced the overall dining experience.

Another issue I noticed was the cramped outdoor seating arrangement. The tables were too close to each other, resulting in limited personal space. This lack of privacy detracted slightly from the overall ambiance and affected the comfort of the outdoor dining area. Perhaps reorganizing the layout or expanding the space for outdoor seating could alleviate this concern.

Despite these minor drawbacks, the restaurant is still highly recommended. The fantastic food and delightful flavors make it a destination worth visiting. While the service and cramped outdoor tables could be improved, they don't overshadow the culinary delights offered. With a little attention to these areas, this restaurant has the potential to be exceptional.

In conclusion, if you're looking for a dining experience with amazing food, this restaurant is an excellent choice. Just be aware that the service can be a bit aggressive, and the outdoor tables may feel cramped. Despite these shortcomings, it's a great place to enjoy a memorable meal. I would definitely recommend it to others and rate it at 4.5 stars.

We had a very nice experience. The place has a holiday vibe - busy, a bit noisy, live music, friendly service, great food and a very good selection of wine. We ordered paella and got very positively surprised when we got 2 plates per person. When I asked why, the answer was to ensure the food stays warm. Thanks Casa Aurelio!

Nice Spanish restaurant that also honors traditional Zurich dishes. Cute ambience, good service and tasty food. Like the ambiance better than restaurant Madrid.

nice atmosphere BUT some rude waiters, propose off the menu dishes and then charge you a horrendous sum (110 per person for truffle pasta); on the bill all drinks are listed as the same so no control is possible; wrong wine on the bill, 40 more than the ordered one - this restaurant is a ripp-off. stay away.

An excellent dinner experience. Our waiter Essifi was very helpful and attentive to our needs. He recommended a great wine to go with our dinner. The lamb chops were amazing and the veal ravioli was also very good. The service was excellent for the whole meal including the house dessert of the day. We would definitely recommend

Nice food and nice place, amazing mexikans singing. Price a bit overrated but for once its okai

This restaurant does not care about making good food or making you feel welcome, it’s only about taking as much money out of you as possible. Even after flagging that the wine we ordered was twice on the bill, there was no apology, just a scruff. I do not understand where the good ratings come from. Must be from friends or something.

Amazing place, service, atmosphere and mostly the staff - bravo!
