LEO Restaurant & Bar

LEO Restaurant & Bar occupies the fifth floor of Globus at Schweizergasse 11, placing an Italian restaurant and rooftop bar above Zurich’s Bahnhofstrasse. The setting combines the energy of the city with a dining room shaped around Italian food, house-made specialities and a rooftop atmosphere. The venue also provides space for events and catering, giving it a broader role than a restaurant for everyday meals.

The kitchen follows a contemporary Italian approach with a menu structured around antipasti, primi piatti and secondi. Antipasti selections draw on familiar Italian traditions, while the pasta course focuses on more individual and creative preparations. Main courses are served with potatoes and seasonal vegetables, keeping the menu connected to classic Italian meal structure while allowing seasonal variation.

House wine forms part of the restaurant’s identity, alongside dishes prepared in-house. The overall style is modern and urban, with an emphasis on polished cooking rather than a casual trattoria format. Italian influences remain central, but the presentation and setting are suited to a city restaurant above one of Zurich’s busiest shopping streets.

The rooftop bar adds a separate reason to visit. It provides a place for drinks in an elevated setting, while the venue’s event offering brings food, hospitality and the city backdrop together for private or public occasions. The atmosphere is refined without being limited to formal dining, making LEO suitable for an Italian meal, an evening drink or a planned gathering.

LEO works particularly well for diners looking for Italian cuisine in a contemporary setting, groups arranging an event, and guests who value a rooftop location near Bahnhofstrasse. The address is easy to pair with time in the surrounding shopping district, while the fifth-floor position gives the restaurant a clear sense of separation from street level. Opening hours and reservation arrangements should be checked directly with the venue before a visit.
