ABOUT FWG
The story began in 1991, when Fredy and Anita Wiesner opened their first restaurant in Zurich. With their unconventional ideas, they have invigorated the gastronomy scene and provided a breath of fresh air time and again. Today, it is their sons Daniel and Manuel who are leading the family business into the future with a great deal of passion and new impetus.
At FWG, we are proud of our diversity - be it the range of our restaurant concepts or, in particular, our colorful, unique employees. They are at the heart of our success. With their commitment, they make every visit to our restaurant a special experience.
We believe that extraordinary ideas are born when you have the courage to break new ground. That's why we motivate our team to think innovatively and dare to take original approaches. Of course, not everything always goes according to plan - but that's exactly what inspires us to keep going and constantly improve.
