“I was there for an aperitivo and I got pleasantly surprised by this place. I would say is probably one of the best authentic Italian aperitivo you can get in Zürich. The prices are totally fair considering the city standards and the ambience is warm and the personnel very kind. Highly recommend!”

“Comfort food in Zurich - Italian edition! Il Salotto is my favorite low-effort but always a pleasure type of place. For breakfast, dinner or drinks, it never disappoints, especially the aperitivo. Can recommend for first dates 😉 instant green flag”
“Great Italian apero bar in Zurich! Super authentic vibe, friendly service, and the best Campari Spritz I've had here. They even brought out a plate of snacks — something you rarely get in Zurich. Will definitely be back!”
“Casual and friendly Italian bar, great for aperitivo. Every drink comes with a plate of snacks. Don't miss the Aperol Spritz granita – refreshing, original, and well made.”
