Iroquois

Frommer's Review

The Swiss have never really gone ga-ga over American-style bars and grills, but of the several that exist within Zurich, this is the busiest and most popular. Always crowded and sometimes mobbed, it's a neighborhood tavern whose rough edges and spilled beer add to its image as a rough-and-ready burger-and-fajitas joint that just happens to have a distinctive Swiss accent. Come here for sports TV and the possibility of striking up a neighborhood friendship. The house cocktail is an Iroquois, made with vodka, Galliano, maracuja (star fruit), and orange juice. If you come with a group that tends to get the munchies, consider a Surfer's Platter prepared for multiple diners at a time, that mixes chicken wings, tortilla chips, quesadillas, and guacamole. Other food choices include ostrich-meat fajitas, burritos, chicken chili burgers, and turkey tacos. Don't expect grandeur, as virtually everything and everyone here is aggressively unpretentious.
