Went for dinner. Ambiance authentic & service was excellent. Had no clue what to order but they were very helpful in introducing us to greek food & flavors. And also recommended a fantastic greek wine to go with our meal(try the Alpha Estate wine with meat). Dessert also was a revelation. Must try their local bread, & their greek dessert. Worth another visit!

The food was really nice (a bit expensive but it’s Geneva), the staff was kind and attentive, while the jardin was beautiful it was extremely hot even in the shade which made a bit difficult to enjoy our lunch.

The service was very bad. The waiter kept forgetting to bring us the beers and extra bread. For a round of beers I had to wait for 40 minutes, and the bread was brought after we have finished the dinner.

Lovely table by the large open windows on a cool June evening. Perfect ambience for most of the evening. Excellent small plates and very good service from our perfectly bilingual waiter.

Original food, really tasty. Small portions. Service was nice but a bit pushy. Overall I would recommend for a nice dinner, it is not cheap but this is Geneva.

I had expected that some meals would be general continental and not only Greek, given that it is located in an international city, Geneva. But the service was excellent as well as the ambiance of the restaurant.
Medusa • Owner
Hello Obi, Thank you so much for your feedback! 😊 As the name suggests, Medusa is indeed inspired by the rich flavors of Greece, but also Armenia and the broader Middle Eastern cuisine we love so much. Offering something a bit different from the usual restaurant scene in Geneva is often very much appreciated, and we’re happy it caught your attention. We're delighted you enjoyed the service and the ambiance, and we truly hope to welcome you again soon! The Medusa Team

The food was delicious and quite interesting .. We had an awkward table which my son had to keep moving his chair to allow for towels to be taken out oh the cupboard. Waiters including our own walked past us several times, and we noticed that a popular table who came in after us got served long before we did. I had to stop another waiter to ask for water as our waiter was gone 20 min and actually never brought the water I asked for. Not sure if not asking if we wanted dessert or coffee or a second glass of wine is normal at Medusa but we would’ve actually considered having .. I still tipped about 9% because that’s just who I am and because there were two other waiters (not our own) who were nice and noticed we weren’t really receiving the best service. I loved the decor and the atmosphere seemed cool but the service was less than desirable. I’m actually going back next week with a friend and hope it’ll be different. I also hope it’s not because we were paying -50% with the fork app
Medusa • Owner
Hello Samantha, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed and honest feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that your experience with the service didn’t meet your expectations, especially regarding the table placement, waiting times, and lack of follow-up from your assigned server. This is not the level of care we aim to provide, and we’ll be reviewing the situation with the team to ensure this doesn’t happen again. We appreciate your kind words about the food and the atmosphere — and we’re glad to hear that a few of our team members still managed to make a positive impression. We also want to assure you that all guests are treated with the same level of attention and care, regardless of any promotion applied. Your satisfaction is always our priority. We look forward to welcoming you again next week and hope to offer you a much smoother and more enjoyable experience. Warm regards, The Medusa Team

Hello Peter, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the ambiance, the food, and the fast, attentive service. It means a lot to us that you’d recommend Medusa, and we’ll be very happy to welcome you back for dinner soon! Warm regards, The Medusa Team

Food was good BUT shockingly OVERPRICED. 55FRS for a piece of fish (turbo OK but still!) without any starter or dessert and for a "plat du jour" is insane. It was my second time (1st was a treat) but I do not think I would go back.
Medusa • Owner
Hello Rhoda, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the food, but we’re truly sorry to read that the pricing left you disappointed. We understand your concern and appreciate your honesty. Just to clarify — the turbot you mentioned is a premium fish, and the price also reflects the seasonal quality, preparation, and accompaniments included in the dish. That said, your impression matters, and we’re sorry that the value didn’t feel justified in this case. We hope you might reconsider and give us another chance in the future — perhaps to try a different part of the menu that may better align with your expectations. Warm regards, The Medusa Team

The food was delicious! However, I was disappointed when my main was just a skewer of calamari without any sides for the CHF 40 dish. The meats seem to be full dishes but not the seafood? Otherwise, the atmosphere and service was excellent, and all the tapas were very memorable.
Medusa • Owner
Hello Azadeh, Thank you so much for your feedback — we're really glad you enjoyed the atmosphere, the service, and especially the tapas! We’re sorry to hear you were disappointed by the portion of the calamari skewer. Just to clarify, the dish is actually priced at CHF 35, not CHF 40, and it features a very fresh, premium-quality product that we prepare simply to let the flavor speak for itself. Unlike some of our meat dishes that include sides, certain seafood options are served on their own to maintain a more refined and focused presentation — but your comment is noted, and we’ll reflect on how to better communicate that. We truly hope to welcome you back again soon! Warm regards, The Medusa Team
