Samigo Amusement is a lakeside venue on the shore of Lake Zurich at Mythenquai. Its concept blends gastronomy with entertainment: the menu features dishes such as beef tartare, falafel, ceviche and Neapolitan pizza, while the stage hosts drag performances, burlesque dancers and fire artists. The terrace, overlooking the lake and the Alps, is especially popular for extended brunches.
The venue is run by restaurateur Sami Khouri, previously known for organizing pop-up restaurants across Zurich before settling into this permanent lakeside location. Beyond dining, the rooftop also hosts seasonal fitness classes such as boxing, boot camp and yoga.
Samigo is one of the venues for Kiki, one of Zurich's well-known queer party series, which regularly takes over the terrace during the summer season, making the location a gathering point for the city's queer community as well.
