Estia Home of Taste is an event kitchen on Hohlstrasse 365 in Zürich that can be booked for company cooking events from 12 to 45 people and for private dinners or brunches from 20 to 45 guests. It describes itself as the first private restaurant of the city and has hosted closed-group events since May 2025.
Seminars and company events
The venue is built around cooking together. The team-building format runs from 12 to 45 people. Participants cook under professional guidance, then sit down to a dinner that the group has helped prepare. The menu is designed with the client. Estia names workshops, offsites and client events among the uses, and it presents the space as a company event location in Zürich with room for exchange. One blog entry on the site describes a Zürich firm that has returned five times for a four-course team cooking evening, from the aperitif to a Greek dessert.
There is no conference room with a stage or a projector listed on the pages read. The format suits a team evening, a client dinner or the social part of an offsite, rather than a plenary day. If your programme needs presentations, ask the venue what can be arranged.
Weddings and receptions
The site mentions private parties such as birthdays, and one article describes a 40th birthday with 40 guests, with an aperitif on the terrace and two kitchens in use. Weddings are not part of the offer on the pages read.

Catering
Catering is in house. For private dinners and brunches, service and preparation are included, and so are drinks and wine pairing. The menu can be tailored, with many options, and the kitchen runs a wood oven that bakes focaccia and sourdough bread for the Sunday brunch. The venue's inspiration is Estia, the Greek goddess of the hearth, and the menus often lean on Greek and Mediterranean cooking, as the pop-up dinner on the home page shows.
History and setting
The venue opened its doors in May 2025 and sits at Hohlstrasse 365 in Zürich, in the 8004 postal district. Besides private events, it runs public cooking classes, a monthly dining experience, a Sunday brunch and a shop. Public classes are useful if your group is below the minimum of 12 guests.
