Reviews Summary
Ufer7 Basel is celebrated for its exquisite and unique Swiss sharing plates, particularly the 'Queerbeet' starters. Diners consistently praise the exceptional service and the stunning Rhine river views from the terrace, creating a memorable dining experience. While some find the menu limited and prices high, the overall quality of food and the charming atmosphere make it a highly recommended spot in Basel.
"Very surprised about this location. Been there for a birthday meal, it was top from beginning to the end. Queerbeet starters were the highlight foodwise, so tasty and refined.
A shoutout to our server who was simply outstanding. Perfect knowledge of food and beverage, high English speaking skills, an example how it should be done."
Thomas Rieder
"A charming spot just by the water with lovely and helpful staff. The selection of food is rather limited to basically one of each standard animal you would expect to find in a restaurant and one or two vegetarian options.
I rather enjoyed all that was on offer but I could imagine a world where I want some beef that is not of the Stroganoff variety and end up being discontent. Today was certainly not that day so I enjoyed the meal and would certainly come back to try other things from their menu."
Tudor Leriu
"We were out 5, trying all appetizers (my favorite was the bone with the marrow), then beef, vegetarian and fish dishes. All were really good. Bottled wine can be as cheap as 54 francs, water filtered but comes at cost. Portions are small but filling. Many Spritz available, not just the usual Gespritzter Wein and Aperol. We were sitting on the terrace, great view. Bit noisy from the street, but not disturbing. Service was excellent, by a lovely young waitress."

Not far from the Middle Bridge and right next to the Rhine, this self-proclaimed “urban Swiss” restaurant has a rustic-chic look inside and a wonderful terrace overlooking the river outside. The short but satisfying menu includes an interesting selection of meat and veggie starters, creative versions of hamburgers and fish-and-chips, and a regularly changing choice of shareable dishes using seasonal, local ingredients.

Perfectly situated next to one of the best swimming spots on the Rhine, this local favourite specialises in regional, sophisticated and creative Swiss sharing plates. From March to September, a buvette (outdoor food stall) parks up outside the pretty townhouse facade; in the winter months, cheese fondues are added to the menu indoors.
