4.4 / 5.0(29,771 reviews)

My husband booked this restaurant as soon as we booked the flight to Vienna. I saw many people have been waiting outside, so I’d recommend to book it before. The schnitzel was amazing! The size was so big. They’re both great with pork and veal. But if you’d like to try the original one, I’d recommend the pork schnitzel. The service was spectacular. I don’t remember the name of the gentleman who serviced us, but he’s been amazing. So kind and very service-minded, also very helpful for choosing the wine. We love this place. The food, of course. But the service really made it better. Great experience! We had the schnitzel, spinach dumplings, potato salad, and the kaiserschmarrn. We loved everything! The schnitzel is MASSIVE. And if I went again, I maybe wouldn’t order the spinach dumplings?? Though they were absolutely tasty! Kaiserschmarrn is a must though, so save room. I would recommend a reservation though, even on a week night! I’m giving this 3 out of 5. The food was great, don’t get me wrong. But a 45 minute wait, the food was on our table 5 minutes after ordering. It felt like an anti climax. To find out the main is quite expensive and literally comes with nothing else on the plate. Sides are all extra. Had the fries, which were mostly batter and very little potato. The salad wasn’t bad though. With a good mix of veg. There are better restaurants to visit where you’ll have a better atmosphere and not have to queue for a ridiculous amount of time. My bill came to about €74. Two mains, two beers and two sides.

Nice place. Very touristy. Very pricey. It’s usually full, but if you eat at odd hours (at 16h, for example) they are still open, so you can get in without issues. The waiters are very nice and helpful, ambience is great. The schnitzel was good - we ordered the traditional (veal), the house specialty (pork), and the vegetarian one. Nothing special, but really nice. The salad that came with the veg option was a stand out. It was unusual for the server to directly ask for a tip, but otherwise service was great.

Tonight, I ordered marinated fried chicken and fried pork chops! The tomato salad was delicious! The drinks were also good, but unfortunately, the food was too coated with flour and the meat was fried too thinly. The ingredients were fresh, and the atmosphere and the waiters were very friendly!
