El Alebrije
Weinbergstrasse 107, 8006 Zürich, Schweiz | 0443703344 | Website | Opening Hours
Mexican fine dining restaurant that is perfect for a date night. Beautiful indirect lighting and classy interior.
The authentic dishes are prepared fresh daily by hand by chef Miguel and his team. This starts with the tortilla, which is made from the original blue corn whenever possible. The various signature cocktails at El Alebrije are also handmade.
The tacos and churros are next level and should not be missed! 🙌
