Chimy's in Zürich (Kreis 3)

The buffet was tasty and fresh. Two things we didn’t like, and hence 4⭐️:- There used to be far more protein options. They had various vegetable and carbohydrate based options, also momos, but almost all protein options are gone. There was sweet&sour soy and that was about it.-buffet starts at 6pm but there was no momos until 6.45

Can really recommend this place, I eat lunch there every week. Tasty food and good prices + very friendly staff.

no more to add, one of the cleanest food in zrh

One of my all time favorites

Small place, nice and friendly with tasty vegan food. Will sure come back :-)

Really excellent quality food. Simple and cozy place. I am certainly coming back.

The buffet is an absolute feast. Delicious food and the staff is very welcoming and friendly. Highly recommended.

Overall ok. Nothing special in my opinion, but the price is really fair, so…Buffet is not really my thing, I believe. 😅Why not five stars? Momos were simply filled with spinaches and I was expecting a bit more. I’ll be back if I want to have an easy dinner with friends.

I was really happy with the buffet. The food was so good. Also they have super friendly staff.

I was very impressed with Chimys all you can eat vegetarian buffet. They have momos...MOMOS!!! And they taste so good!My friend and I arrived around 8pm on a Friday with a reservation. The place was totally packed. Our waitress was quite busy but made sure to check on us and bring our drinks quickly. The buffet was really excellent and had many hot and cold options. I cant tell you exactly what all they had but as I mentioned before, I was totally psyched that they had momos. I was also really excited that they had sweet and sour fake chicken. For whatever reason I feel like its quite difficult to find that... but they have it and its really delicious. Way to go Chimys!

Probably one of the best places I’ve ever eaten out in Zurich. The staff was very friendly and helpful regarding questions about the food. The food was delicious. I am always afraid to eat out and try Asian kitchen because I can’t really deal with spicy food but that was not at all a problem here. The buffet might seem small at first but it has a wide range of foods and everything tastes amazing. I was surprised how much I liked since I am a very picky eater. The fried rice and the fried tofu were both the highlight of my dinner there. All in all just amazing food. I will definitely come again. The place is rather small but I like that.

Great and healthy food. Wide variaty of asian food. Very good service. Cozy place. 💚🌱

Little nice restaurant located right around the corner of the famous Langstrasse. Really good all you can eat asian buffet, but also nice à la carte menue abd did I mention that the staff is really friendly?Nearly every dish from the buffet is vegan except the vegetarian momos, but there are vegan momos to. They have different dishes to choose from every day. For Swiss standards a really affordable restaurant! If you like Asian food and buffet this is your place to go!

Been twice now, great vegetarian food for a really good price. All you can eat so try to come with an empty stomach.

Update Nov: Ordered again wanting to eat something green, but instead the vegan momos today were filled with mostly glass noodle and some mushroom. Probably I was simply lucky the previous time. I would have rated this glass-noodle momo 1-star. I realise now that their momo fillings are not standardised, so it is luck of the draw when ordering.Oct 2021: Their vegan momos contain lots of green vegetables! This is unlike most other places here, which I’ve noticed seem to use more bulk-filler ingredients such as potato (nothing inherently wrong with potato filling). The ones I had today were filled with spinach and were very good.

Pleasant buffet at a good price

Very disappointing. We called ahead and made reservations. When we arrived, we were seated at a crowded spot right next to other people. We showed our valid vaccination cards upon request, but an additional person was called over and proceeded to loudly discuss the details of our vaccinations in front of the whole restaurant. After all that, we were then told the only option to eat was a buffet (we specifically made reservations at this restaurant because we did not want a buffet). We ended up just leaving and had to start over figuring out plans for the night. Waste of a night in Zurich. Not sure why they gave us menus when we couldnt order anything.

We loved this place and look forward to coming back again in the future! The restaurant offers a la carte or buffet. We chose a la carte and order the cheese and spinach momo, green curry and tibetian noodle soup. The momos came with three delicious and fresh sauces, green curry was creamy and spicy and the tibetian soup was so flavourful. The prices were pretty decent for zurich and the staff were very kind and helpful. Looking forward to our next meal here!

Very tasty ! Had some « à la carte » dishes but they also have a wonderful looking buffet. Very friendly staff !

The food was not.impressive. They served the wrong wine which tasted old and vinegary. We complained, they changed the wine for another one which was as old and vinegary as the first. Their excuse was that they were not wine experts. Points for the waitress that was trying to be accomodating.

Excellent vegan food and very friendly staff! Good prices for Zurich.

What a fantastic find! We drove all the way to Zurich to try their food and were astound by the quality and taste of the food - especially for the price!We got to the restaurant before they opened and asked if we could sit inside while we wait for the dinner service to start (it was freezing outsideand they sat us down right away, took our drink orders and even let us start having the dinner buffet before the opening time of 6pm.In addition to the mouthwatering vegan buffet, the thoughtful staff and the amazing price (especially for Zurich!I was also impressed by how clean the restaurant was and how much effort they put it to help protect themselves and their clients from Covid.The tables were properly deprecated to keep us safe, everyone had to wear a mask while standing and at the buffet, but more importantly they asked their guests to wear protective gloves they provided when grabbing food at the buffet and they made sure to remind everyone to wear a mask when getting food (most places just assume guests will and dont enforce it).We felt safe, welcomed and full with delicious food!This place is a MUST-TRY!

This place is incredible. The food is amazing. The prices are practically impossible to beat in Zürich. The owner and his staff are super nice and help you with everything. Its no upscale fancy restaurant but the atmosphere is cozy and I like it very much.The owner told me hes now trying to eliminate processed foods from the menu and to become completely vegan over the time; over the course of time I went there, they went from having three dairy products to just 1.

Good food, good price! The acoustics in the restaurant are not so nice: we were a little disturbed by the loud noises.

Wonderful restaurant - outstanding food! I particularly enjoyed their interpretation of the classical momo. The service was also very warm and friendly, highly recommend!

To me just ok- food tasty, prices standard, very small space, loud music.

my favorite restaurant in zurich! everything Ive tried was always really delicious, fresh and it tastes like it has been cooked with love! almost everything is vegan on the all you can eat buffet (a variety of salads, sushi, fruit, momos, different curries, dahl, different vegetables, pakora, rice, glassnoodles, sweet and sour chickn, tofu dishes and so much more, always varyingand many dishes from the menu are vegan too. the waiter is super friendly and kind, always smiling and making sure everyone is having a good time. the chefs are lovely and very talented. always a pleasure having dinner here!!!

Great Buffet, no meat, fair price and absolutely testy!! Would recommend it also (not yetnon-vegetarian :-)

I like the buffet! Its a combination of small space with full access to the buffet makes getting food suuuper quick. Definitely worth checking out!

Very basic vegeterian food. Nothing extra-ordinary, standard curries, dumplings and simple steamed vegetables. You need good timing to get fried stuff fresh! Quality of foid moderate, canned fruit for dessert!

The place is not so cozy, but the food served here is great! We tried curry and dumplings, very tasty. Service is good and friendly. Highly recommended! Better book a table.

Great food, very inexpensive AND with quality. Buffet during weekdays is full of delicious options and suit any Veg fans. Take away has a fantastic cost x benefit and you can fit quite a lot in the container.Chilled atmosphere, relaxed place.Totally recommended

Fresh food at its best! Nice buffet with vegetarian and vegan options. Try the homemade iced tea. Delicious!

Fantastic, fresh food.We had the evening buffet and loved everything. The only downside was eating a little too much! 😋Our server (Tselekwas so friendly and attentive. We’re definitely coming back here.

Had a great meal here. Lots of options, all tasty. Not sure why this is listed at one Euro sign, the buffet was 26 Franks, which is pretty much normal to a little expensive. Still worth it though.

If you are after vegan with fusion and explosion of flavours this is your place. Each dish had its own distinctive personality and it was a joy to eat.

Excellent little restaurant serving mostly vegan Tibetan and other South Asian dishes. The buffet is very good, especially the cooked side, but also the salad side has good things to offer. Super reasonable prices and very kind service. Highly recommended.

Good choice of delicious vegan/vegetarian food options at their buffet. At lunchtime you get to eat as much as you want and a softdrink for 24 CHF, which is a good price considering its in Zurich.

Really nice mostly vegan restaurant. Great for lunch and take away. Theres always a buffet full of different tasty asian dishes (sushi, curries, salads, dumplings, fruits and more).

Lovely food.. Nice ambiance.. Friendly staff.They charged my 3 year old daughter half price for the meal. So reducing one star.

My new favorite vegan restaurant in Zurich :There is mostly one dish (momo with cheesethat is not vegan. It’s labeled though.All dishes are delicious and the staff is friendly. Really great offer for the price.

One of the best restaurants Ive ever been to. Amazing food, perfect service and all you can eat buffet for chf 26. This is unbeatable! Loved it sooooo much!

Buffet with lots of vegan options. The curries and dumplings were nice, but I didnt feel like any of the dishes were really standing out in taste.

Extremely delicious all you can eat asian vegan lunch buffet. Quiet ambience, friendly service.Make sure to visit al least once a month to profit from the 5.- voucher.

Having visited Tibetasia once before, we were curious to try out Chimys and see how the food is here (they are sister establishments). They couldnt contrast more. While we were welcomed warmly by the owner/manager at Tibetasia, the one in charge at Chimys was cold and stern. We got the impression that we have been sent to the principals office. Where Tibetasia was crowded and lively, Chimys was almost empty on a Friday evening. The menu was quite small and unimaginative. When we ordered drinks, I was told that the drink I wanted wasnt available. Fair enough. I took a few seconds and decided on another one. The waitress/manager told me that it wasnt available as well and has been so for months. I got the impression that Im doing something wrong. We chose the buffet and I have to say that the food was decent but nowhere close to being authentic.All in all, what could have been an average dining experience was rendered bad by the behavior of the waitress/manager.

Very tasty .Fantastic selection of food for vegetarians. the sushi and salads are great:)! Also its for reasonable price. Its one of my favs from now on:)

Yummy Vegan Food!

The first time I came here, right after theyd opened, I had a great experience. However the second visit this past week was quite the disappointment. The server was rude and inattentive and the buffet food was just generally disappointing. To top it all off, we were charged 2.75 CHF (!!per glass of tap water. We had planned on ordering other beverages but the server never returned. Needless to say, we wont be back.

Very good food and a good selection. The price is super for dinner buffet! I loved the variety on the salad bar. The steam buns and momo are lovely! Definitely will go back..

Delicious buffet, friendly staff, tidy up and familiar atmosphere!
