Chez Fritz, Kilchberg Mediterranean Elegance on the Shores of Lake Zurich
Nestled directly on the edge of Lake Zurich in Kilchberg, Chez Fritz offers a refined Mediterranean dining experience with panoramic lakeside views. Recently reopened under a fresh new concept, this historic restaurant seamlessly blends tradition with contemporary flair.
A Prime Lakeside Location
Located at Seestrasse 195, just across from the Lindt & Sprüngli chocolate factory, Chez Fritz invites guests into a sophisticated yet relaxed environment. The spacious terrace and outdoor bar provide uninterrupted views of the lake a setting that evokes serenity, style, and Swiss Riviera charm.
A Cuisine That Celebrates Freshness
The menu is rooted in Mediterranean flavors with a strong focus on fresh seafood, regional ingredients, and seasonal produce. Signature dishes include beef tartare, Canadian lobster with Jamón Serrano, and elegant vegetable creations. Every plate is designed to highlight natural flavors with contemporary precision.
A Legacy Reimagined
Originally founded in the 1960s, Chez Fritz has been completely reimagined while honoring its family-run heritage. The restaurant now offers a casual fine dining experience, supported by a skilled kitchen team and a handpicked wine selection featuring labels from France, Italy, Spain, and Switzerland.

The Atmosphere
The interior blends clean lines and soft tones, while the terrace offers a sun-soaked space perfect for lunches, dinners, or evening drinks. Whether you’re enjoying a relaxed meal or hosting a special occasion, Chez Fritz delivers a luxurious yet inviting setting.
Press Lunch
We had the pleasure of attending a press dinner at Chez Fritz, as part of an exclusive media gathering. From the attentive service to the beautifully plated courses and serene lake backdrop, the experience was impeccable and captured the essence of modern Swiss dining with Mediterranean soul.
