Excellent!

I had the pleasure to eat at Chimy's in the evening: the all you can eat buffet was simply delicious, lots of variety, everything cooked fresh, all the dishes except two were vegan, and the service was very friendly. I loved it, and I most certainly am going back soon!

Fantastic vegan buffet for an incredible price

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 outside) and 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 don't enforce it).

We felt safe, welcomed and full with delicious food!
This place is a MUST-TRY!

Pros: Lots of delicious vegan options, Great price, Great protocols in place to protect us from Covid

Best place for a vegan asian buffet in Zürich

If you love vegan asian food, visit this place. You can eat "all you can eat" from the buffet for around CHF 30 (which is a great deal for Zürich). I am usually there for lunch. You can fill a box from the buffet for Take Away for a lunch price. Best place to go for vegan asian food.

Amazing buffet

As a Vegan you will find your heart at Chimy's.
From Sushi, to Satay sticks or Curry, you will definitely not go with an empty stomach.
The staff is friendly and the place is easy to find.

Just be sure to check the options, bc they have vegetarian options too.

Definitely worth checking out.

Reasonably Priced Almost Entirely Vegan Buffet

Chimy's has an almost entirely vegan all you can eat buffet. As mentioned, the only non-vegan item when I was there were cheese filled momos (I asked to confirm this), but there were vegan momos available. There were a wide variety of different dishes, ranging from vegan sushi (pretty basic veggies rolls), to Indian dahl, sweet and sour eggplant, momos, Chinese style noodles and veggies, etc. It would have been nice to have more dishes with protein, especially some tofu dishes (there was a chickpea/kidney bean curry and the dahl, but that was it), but compared to other vegetarian places in Zurich, this was quite reasonably priced and nice that it's all you can eat. The space is not fancy, but is fine, with drinks including wine/beer for purchase.

Pros: Mostly vegan buffet, All you can eat, Good variety of dishes

Cons: Limited protein offerings

Awesome buffet

The dinner buffet is on the expensive side (26 CHF) but honestly worth it. All of the dishes were vegan except one cheese bread. They also had lychee, my favorite Asian fruit. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Would recommend!

90% vegan restaurant

New restaurant opened in happening part of Langstrasse area. Food very fresh prepared, no mock meats, but otherwise lots of CHINESE and Indian influences.
Except for Momo with cheese, all dishes from buffet are vegan. Vegan Momos are also served though.
Vegan Sushi - all you can eat - is a feast for eye and palate.
Will come again.

Pros: Reasonable price, All u can eat buffet, Wide variety

Cons: Dessert in buffet limited (no big deal), Tap Water costs, if you don’t order a drink

Plastikzwang beim TakeAway

Ausgezeichnetes Essen, leider Plastik-Zwang bei Take-Away. Das mitbringen von eigenen Gefässen wird von den Mitarbeitern abgelehnt mit der Begründung, man setze ausschliesslich auf Einwegplastik beim Take-Away.
Das eigene Gefäss, welches ich stets zum Lunch brauche wird in allen anderen Take-Aways im Kreis 5 ohne Probleme akzeptiert. Wirklich schade, dass ein vegetarisch/veganes Restaurant, von dem man Nachhaltigkeit erwarten dürfte, eine derart rückständige Umweltpolitik verfolgt. Ich werde bis zu einer Anpassung dieser Regelung auf einen Besuch im Chimy's verzichten.

Pros: Gutes Essen

Cons: Plastik im TakeAway, Keine Container möglich

Wonderful Asian Buffet

I enjoyed the food so much at Chimy's that I went there two nights in a row. If I was still in Zurich I would eat there again tonight. The buffet was mainly vegan with some dumpling like items labeled as containing cheese. It wasn't a huge spread but everything was very tasty and satisfying. The Rendang with pineapple instead of beef was especially good, as was the Papaya Salad.

Pros: Great Food, Good Salads, Pineapple Rendang

Cons: Somewhat Expensive, but this is Zurich, Not all vegan, Labels in German

Amazing

Cozy place in Langstrasse area north of the railway tracks. Very wide vegan selection at the “all you can eat”-buffet. Different salads and Asian dishes like curry’s are on offer for a fair price. If you eat on site around noon, you pay 24.- including one drink. Take away box is 14.50. In the evening, it’s a little more expensive. Staff is very friendly. I’d say this is the best vegan restaurant in town. I guess I can save a lot of time because I don’t have to cook at home anymore.

Asian mostly vegan buffet?!

Awesome selection. I was told everything is vegan except for the mono’s (dumplings) with cheese. They had four types of vegan sushi and several fried items, in addition to curries and salads. Excellent!

Diverse asian buffet

Restaurant with a large unlimited buffet (all vegan except one) and some a la carte options. The buffet items ranged from sushi to momos and jackfruit curry. We had a seat outside on the sidewalk. Due to the unlimited food, the buffet was in a good price range for Zurich

Pros: many vegan options, unlimited buffet

delicious food and friendly staff

They offer a buffet, the food on the buffet is freshly prepared, nicely presented and very tasty, almost everything on the buffet is vegan (only exception: momos with cheese), you can find sushi, springrolls and momos on the buffet as well as salads (such as green Papaya salad etc) and delicious warm dishes, I will definitely come back and my non-vegan friends really liked it, too. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.

Pros: lots of vegan options

But missing food like: stir fry, pad thai , or chinese . Surprisingly small space, but we had no problem with it. everything was super good:)

Pros: very tasty food , kind and careful service, good price for what you can get

Good place to eat vegan in Zürich

We went several times at lunch and dinner. Central place which offers menu a la carte and buffet. Service is still not the best (it depends from the people: some are really friendly - some are very shy). You will enjoy and not starve. Everything is homemade with some interesting variations.
90% is vegan - I do not understand why they are not switching to fully vegan ... anyway : Worth a try.

Pros: good vegan food, easy to reach, Good prices - cheap

Cons: service needs improvement
