If you're searching for an authentic slice of Thailand in Zurich, look no further than Lowen Siam. Tucked away on Baumackerstrasse, this charming Asian restaurant is a hidden gem that boasts an inviting atmosphere, delicious cuisine, and warm hospitality. The moment you step inside, you'll feel as though you've traveled straight to Thailand, thanks to the beautiful and cozy interior that creates an ambiance perfect for casual dining.

Lowen Siam is celebrated for its genuine Thai cuisine, a delightful fusion of flavors that transport your taste buds. While the menu boasts a variety of dishes, customer favorites like Pad Thai shine through with their perfect balance of sweet, sour, and spicy elements. Many patrons rave about the generously sized portions; as noted by Celine G, it’s a place where you’ll find satisfaction in every bite with food that is not just tasty, but also made with love.

However, fair warning for those who aren’t accustomed to spicy fare—some diners, like Marianna Zangrillo, found the buffet selection limited and predominantly on the spicy side. So, if you’re not a fan of heat, it might be beneficial to check in with the staff for recommendations or stick to specific dishes that cater to your palate.

Another aspect that accentuates Lowen Siam's appeal is the attentive and friendly service provided by the owner herself. As georgebabag rafailis highlights, her warm welcome encapsulates the spirit of Thai hospitality, making every guest feel valued. Reviews consistently applaud the staff for their friendliness, creating a casual and homey environment that makes you want to return.

If you’re looking for a cozy spot to enjoy a meal that tantalizes your senses, consider Lowen Siam. As Duy Tam Nguyen succinctly puts it, this is an authentic Thai kitchen that prides itself on quality and presentation, promising to deliver a meal that you won’t soon forget. Whether for a casual bite or a family dinner, this little oasis of Thai food in Zurich is sure to have something for everyone. Plan your visit and discover a hidden culinary treasure in the heart of the city!

I went there for the second time and I love this place they served a good portion of food and it is really tasty. The place itself is a bit outside the city in a quiet area near the train station, and inside it’s cozy . I definitely recommend this place for Thai food. I liked their pad Thai :)

Nice place, good food and friendly staff. But the buffet selection was limited and most of the food spicy (included a soup that they said was not spicy), so the buffet price was quite high for what we could actually eat (only 2 things were not spicy).

it might not look inviting from outside - but as soon you enter the door you are in thailand. beautiful & warm interior. the welcoming is so real & warm. all dishes are really made with love - and they are sooo authentic (had a biz in thailand for 14 years) - even better and fresher than in thailand. - really delicious and such a warm and wonderful service by the owner itself. she is gold. - we had and enjoyed amazing dishes - that phad krapao is not of this world and them salads& curries and by far the best pad thai - don't know where to start. fantastic! we will keep coming back when in switzerland. - kop khun mak krap

Authentic Thai kitchen. Fine, above average dishes, nice presentation! Friendly staff. A little bit above average prices, but you get what you pay.

Very tasty food (also vegetarian) and very friendly service. We will go there again. But it took too long until we were asked if we would like to pay. We always needed to ask for it. And the atmosphere isn't classy. So I totally recommend it if you are searching for a tasty meal. But not for a perfect romantic dinner.

The buffet was amazing! Felt like I ate homemade food, so great. If you are here around please go to this wonderful thai resaurant. It ended with a warm cloth to clean our hands. Love from Sweden!

Redesigned old Swiss Bar from the looks of it. They put good effort in it, brought their own charm to this place. Very nice and calm relaxed atmosphere. Great starter soups with much in it, not just water, and we very much liked the curry's as well. Spicyness has been lowered a bit for Swiss people I assume, but you can ask for more if you want. Very recommendable.
