Hello NeeluGarg,
How nice of you to share this information about vegetarian restaurants in Lucerne with everybody. I think personal recommendations are always worth a lot!
Tibits is one of my favourite vegetarian restaurants too, quite widely spread throughout the country and good quality food.

In Zermatt, we found that most restaurants had vegetarian options. Both the Stubli and Brown Cow in the Post hotel had quite a few options. You can get pizza and fondue at numerous places. Puro in the Cervo hotel had options too. There were soups and salads at the simple restaurants we could ski into as well as changes to the tasting menus–most of the restaurants had choices. At the more expensive restaurants, we made reservations well in advance and inquired about changes, etc.
