The best restaurants Austria

Located in the heart of the village, this charming address shines in the Gschnitz valley. The perfect place to recharge your batteries before or after a hike or a day's skiing, with breakfast, brunch or a delicious organic ice cream snack. Wine lovers will be delighted by the ^17th-century vaulted cellar, rich in selections. The delicatessen features products from regional farmers and producers, perfect for gift-giving. What's more, it's possible to stay in this historic building, which bears witness to over 300 years of history.

With a lunch menu priced at 14 euros, it's the perfect break for the city explorer, with healthy, exclusively vegetarian options and record-breakingly fast service. The menu is concise but punchy: the same ingredients are used in starters, main courses and the daily menu, guaranteeing freshness, seasonality and, above all, a surprising creativity. Because yes, even if the ingredients repeat themselves, the flavors are there to surprise us with every bite. And on weekends, we swap lunch for a colorful brunch!

Wilten doesn't just create delicate cocktails. It also offers a wide range of beautifully presented breakfast and brunch menus, concocted exclusively with organic ingredients: from freshly baked bread to homemade fruit juices and coffee from Innsbruck. This surprising combination is to be enjoyed in a pleasant, friendly atmosphere, suitable for everyone, whether you're with family, friends or your significant other. Perfect value for money.

A typical Tyrolean atmosphere, with waiters in traditional costumes and wooden furniture, for this restaurant which will please carnivores in particular, with an abundant supply of meat (beef, veal, lamb...) from the pastures of the Zillertal. Generous portions and efficient service. Next door, the Butcher Bar, which belongs to the same establishment, offers, in a modern setting, cocktails, wines and beer brewed by the house, to be served with or without a meat dish or an assortment of specialities.

The former school building in Zellberg, which stands on a panoramic balcony above the Zillertal valley, has been converted into a hotel and restaurant where gourmet cuisine is served. The products of local suppliers, such as river char, cheese, meat, wild herbs and vegetables, are used to create colourful and refined dishes that follow the rhythm of the seasons. The establishment also offers 8 comfortable and well-equipped apartments, some of which also have a balcony or terrace.

Restaurant ideally located on the banks of Möserer See, with a pleasant terrace inviting you to relax after a hike or a swim in the lake. The menu features traditional dishes, invigorating soups and delicious desserts. The dishes on offer are very affordable. The overall atmosphere is warm, intimate and lively. Their motto (which is apparently attributed to Socrates): you don't live to eat, you eat to live! Well-presented tables, pretty crockery, occasional live music outside. Top-notch desserts.

Managed by the Haselwanter family, the Alt-Mösern delights guests with its exquisitely decorated restaurant, its terrace with panoramic views of the snow-capped peaks and its sophisticated, tasty cuisine. Chef Alexander draws his inspiration from all the region's produce to create elegant, flavorful dishes: mountain herbs, Leutasch trout, Karwendel game. The establishment also rents out well-appointed, comfortable apartments for 2 or 4 people, where you'll feel right at home!

In the historic Hotel Lamark, located at the foot of the Hochfügen alpine ski slopes, ideal for a lunch break between two runs or after a ski touring outing. Charming historic setting, a little stuffy but pleasant all the same. It's a great place to sit and eat! Be careful not to bite off more than you can chew, as the portions are quite impressive. Prices are quite reasonable. Vegetarian options and local specialties, such as goulash soup, cheese spätzels and other local delicacies.

A traditional restaurant in one of the city's most famous landmarks (it's home to Austria's famous arch bridge - which can also be booked for a romantic dinner for two!) Great choice of Tyrolean dishes, including Käsespätzle and Spinatknödeln, and, for dessert, a delicious Kaiserschmarrn. Good wine selection. Well-presented table and plates, which don't detract from the pleasure of the eye. A restaurant that can be in demand, so remember to book a little in advance.

The plates are copious and the traditional dishes delicious. We like the good atmosphere of this address frequented by locals noisily drinking beers! Family dishes well done and without fuss. A neat decoration (materials, plants...) and a beautiful outside terrace in summer. It is also possible to simply go there for breakfast, plates of fruit, vegetables, good bread, sweet treats but also cold cuts, etc. The place also rents out rooms by the night or by the week. Internet connection.

On the ^8th floor of the Hotel Ferdinand on the Ring, this new rooftop restaurant offers a Mediterranean ambience with panoramic views from the terrace, and a menu with a southern accent: from bouillabaisse marseillaise to ravioli alla carbonara, from salade niçoise to poulet à la mallorquina. Le Limon in the colors of sunshine and lemon is open to all, hotel residents or not. Reservations are strongly recommended. Le Limon is also a chic, festive cocktail bar, where you can relax and unwind.

This is one of the three restaurants in the Grand Ferdinand Hotel, on the Ring, and the most affordable, with a Hungarian cuisine trend and an excellent goulash, as the name suggests. You can enjoy breakfast in the morning and coffee with a pastry or snack throughout the day and well into the evening. The daily menu is tasty and generous. It's less sophisticated than the Grand étage, on the hotel's ^8th floor, and more traditional than the neighboring Meissl & Schadn, temple of traditional and XXL Viennese schnitzel.

Slow-food, farm-to-table? Let's just say that here, ingredients from the family farm are transformed into Tyrolean specialties. This is the credo of this family-run inn. From the aperitif at the bar, to a wine tasting at the table, to the digestif that soothes satiated stomachs, the selection of wines is the fruit of deep-rooted ties with the region's winemakers. In short, authenticity and tradition. As for the décor, it whispers tales of the past, while the waitresses in dirndl stroll with the grace of aristocrats of yesteryear.

We climb Hendl Fischeri even without skis in winter, for the ultimate excuse to fill our gullets with this absurd but fun signature dish: The Lobster & Chicken. A plate with whole lobster and chicken served with garlic bread. And no, you're not dreaming! In addition to this never-before-seen culinary attraction, an XXL pan of Kaiserschmarrn will serve as a welcome on the doorstep. An army of waiters wearing graphic fleeces will then take over to seat you around an organically carved wooden bar.

Loca is one of these new-style restaurants, offering inventive, locavore and healthy cuisine in a soothing, uncluttered setting for a moment of pleasure and rejuvenation. The menu is composed in such a way as to offer variety, with dishes designed to be richer in vitamins than in calories, while remaining nourishing, without sacrificing taste or pleasure, of course! We also appreciate the beauty of the plates. Nice little terrace in summer.

A very good table of traditional cuisine, simple and generously served. Fresh products from the surrounding farms. Homemade dishes, some of them very inventive and successful. A menu with typical Tyrolean starters, main courses and desserts (speck, cheese, stews, etc.) but also vegetarian options. The desserts are the best way to finish the meal. We went there for the first time to try it, and we want to go back. An address as we like them, not too expensive, without fuss and especially with a delicious cuisine.

This establishment, run by Markus Mraz and his sons Lukas and Manuel, is a veritable institution on the Viennese gastronomic scene. Tables of this level on the outskirts of the city are an exception. The Mraz family concocts avant-garde cuisine with disconcerting flavors. Let yourself be surprised and trust the 15-course menu. Just specify any allergies you may have, and the chef will take care of the rest. Save room for cheeses - the cart offers around forty! Wine and food pairings available. A great gastronomic moment.

A rural and gourmet stopover on the Viennese wine route, very convenient if you are driving, as it is located on the main road connecting the villages of Heiligenstadt and Grinzing. This spacious Heuriger can accommodate more than 450 guests and has a particularly pleasant garden terrace. You are sure to enjoy the wines from the Wagner vineyard, which has been in existence since 1683, and the buffet offering an abundant choice of typical Austrian rustic cuisine. There is also a wide selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes.

In nightclubs, night owls are often hungry. The Goodmann's has the good taste of serving hot dishes late at night. This bar-disco restaurant also has an atmosphere that never fails to impress. A steak tartare, a spaghetti plaster, or a Tafelspitz are prepared in the oven for those who are not yet at breakfast! All at very reasonable prices, not to mention the fact that the entrance is free (let's not forget that this is a disco). And of course eating does not exempt from drinking and vice versa.

This is the bar-restaurant of the luxury Motto hotel. A trendy address with a rooftop bar in summer, comfortable lounge areas, green plants and a cupola, all of great charm. The menu is inspired by French cuisine and modernizes Austrian dishes. The emphasis is on fresh, organic produce and seafood. From breakfast to late-night cocktails, brunch, tapas and main courses. The bar is often crowded and welcomes the whole of Vienna.

This is the restaurant and rooftop bar of the friendly Hotel Zoku, close to the Wien Messe. The atmosphere is relaxed and the decor original, combining plants, wood panelling and a variety of intimate spaces. You'll find people working on their computers around a large table, a group sharing an aperitif, a couple on a romantic dinner date, students enjoying a coffee on the terrace. Sumptuous views over the Prater amusement park and the city. The dishes are refined, but the bill can quickly climb.

Coup de coeur for this wine bar opened in 2017 by Matthias Pitra and Steve Breitzke. On the plates, a range of garden dishes and a few hand-picked meats. Inventive, healthy and delicious. You can tell that the chefs have worked in the kitchens of vegetable enthusiasts, including the Michelin-starred Paul Ivic. Three dishes of the day to choose from: meat, fish and vegetarian. Dessert is a highlight that rounds off the gastronomic adventure perfectly. Excellent local wines and beers. One green Michelin star.

An offshoot of the Mochi on Praterstrasse. Since 2017, it has been offering ramen, that Japanese soup with fresh noodles in a broth of your choice - dried fish, shellfish, pork, mushrooms... - and a soft-boiled egg marinated in soy sauce. Very comforting and warming in winter! A nice spot in the alleys of the small market that goes up in the second district, a stone's throw from the campus and Messe Wien. We appreciate the relaxed atmosphere which, combined with the Japanese refinement, symbolizes the Viennese way of life. Kanpaï!

This is the bistro of starred vegetarian chef Paul Ivic. In a trendy passageway near the MuseumQuartier, under the large glass roof or in the dining room, pretty little dishes combining vegetables, cereals, spices, fine herbs and flowers, such as the inimitable beet and mushroom tartar, or this salted butter with leek oil, are served. The garden menu surprises with its flight of colorful and tasty seasonal dishes. The desserts are just as good! And sincerely the meat is not missing.

Here is a rather atypical space between the Beisl and the Lokal, which exists since 1988. It is a friendly and plural place that honors wine and wines and is particularly suited to catering. You can eat veal schnitzel and beef tartar, pork ribs and burgers, and even, in the spirit of the times, excellent oriental-inspired bowls, including a vegetarian bowl. Every autumn the big harvest festival takes place here, celebrating the end of the work in the fields, a very nice address.

Rough cement walls, wooden tables, a minimalist industrial decor - as in New York - and an open kitchen, a young, nerdy clientele, an organic, seasonal menu - this is the landscape of Zweitbester, a recent establishment that has quickly found its feet and its clientele. The daily menu is perfect. The à la carte dishes are seductive, inventive and healthy. The brunches and breakfasts are definitely worth trying. We love the homemade crème brûlée and the cheeseburger. Fresh fruit juice cocktails.

A trendy address from renowned chef Eyal Shani, with an open kitchen that welcomes you for gourmet Mediterranean-inspired dinners, a blend of French and Italian influences. The secret of this original establishment lies in its choice of top-quality ingredients and, for a trendy touch, its emphasis on vegetables and even heirloom vegetables. Here you'll find pastries, parsnips and a variety of cabbages. But it's also possible to enjoy a 450g rare rib steak or a fine fish! We eat on long, shared tables.

This modern restaurant welcomes you to the castle grounds and shady terrace. The menu features Austrian specialties and Viennese wines, particularly those bearing the WienWein label, from the castle's vineyards, which were already present during the reign of Empress Maria Theresa. Today, the WienWein group produces the famous Wiener Gemischter Satz on the plots adjacent to the Orangery. The Heuriger Joseph II is accessible even after the park has closed.

Salads, kebabs and pasta, fast and efficient for those who don't want to fill up on schnitzels again after a day's skiing, all at very attractive prices. A special mention goes to the Kebappizza, perfect for the indecisive. Vegetarian options available. You can also opt for snacks such as hamburgers, chicken nuggets, schnitzels, hot dogs and more. It's not gourmet food, but it's an interesting option if you don't have the time to spend an hour or two in a restaurant.

Immerse yourself in the Viennese tradition of the urban Heuriger, far from the vineyards but with good tastings and dishes typical of wine inns. This Stadtheuriger is one of the finest in the city center. The terrace, shaded and calm, allows you to enjoy Viennese wine in peace and quiet. The buffet is packed with shanks, sausages, cabbage and potatoes, the staff are particularly charming and the interior well-kept and well-decorated under the auspices of Bacchus. And best of all, the cuisine is locavore and based on organic produce.

A restaurant-pizzeria that brings gourmet Italy to the heart of Austria. This is a very representative establishment of the very bobo Spittelberg, where the art of living is cultivated against a background of dolce vita, that is to say, Italian cuisine is enjoyed from antipasti to desserts, from pasta to pizza. We speak and think in Italian, and we like it. It is sometimes difficult to find a place in this large, warm and noisy wooden establishment. Quality cuisine, young and relaxed atmosphere. Local customers love the chef's pizzas.

Ideally located at the very beginning of the Prater park, in the middle of the rides and other attractions, the Kolarik family establishment has a beautiful and huge terrace. In summer, reservations are required to ensure you have space. It is colossally large, but also always full. The "House of the Swiss" is also an institution, the Stelzle of Pork, the roast pork shank served by the kilo. And the beer is flowing. There's also a small snack outside with chips and potato roasts to take away.

Chef Massimo knows how to pop pizza dough and top it with tasty ingredients. Viennese diners flock to this Italian restaurant every evening. No checkered tablecloths here! While the decor of the large vaulted dining room is rather sober, the tables are well laid and the red lacquered bar clearly marks the boundary between kitchen and dining room. The chef excels in preparing fresh pasta, and his spaghetti with clams is legendary. He also likes to work with fish, and his tiramisu dares to be original. Espresso Italian style!

A humanized rabbit, complete with clothes and top hat, symbolizes the brand. The Stellas, part bar, part wine bar, part beer bar, part delicatessen, is a convivial place for an aperitif with tapas, a restaurant-grill with generous, tasty dishes. The chef juggles Mediterranean and Asian inspirations with an Austrian twist. Gourmets appreciate this address. The Stellas is also known for its long list of cocktails and wines from near and far. Another Stellas, Stellas 3, Landstraßer Hauptstraße 44.

A small Austrian-style pancake... The Viennese Palatschinken are a little thicker than the Breton pancakes. The house uses organic eggs, flours and local ingredients. We liked the emperor's pancake served with a compote of quetsches and the amazing meringue pancakes ... But whether they are spinach/salmon, walnut/brie, sheep/veal or minced meat/gouda, all are tasty, hearty and with side dishes. A very good value for money.

In the heart of the MuseumsQuartier, a quality fast-food restaurant where you can eat in the dining room or on the terrace, or you can take your snack to nibble in the large courtyard, on the contemporary and colorful urban furniture that brightens it up. There are dishes full of freshness, with vegetables, some completely vegetarian, even vegan, but also classic burgers. The service is efficient and smiling. You can also stop by just to quench your thirst between two museum visits. A lot of young Viennese for breakfast and aperitif. Low prices.

Casual address with a menu focused on meats, grilled or in sauce, and river fish. There are also some invigorating soups and salads. Nice bar, too, just for a drink. They really know their meat, which is their specialty, so they can cook a steak just the way you like it. The choice of sauces to accompany the meats is impressive. Every Thursday, Friday and Saturday, the spotlight is on dry-aged steak. A perfect address for meat lovers.

We love it. In summer, the terrace with its greenery is very popular. This evening-only address offers a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity. The decor is bold, with a scribbled ceiling and waiters dressed in white. The menu is simple, renewed according to the season, and the dishes are Austrian-influenced, with a few international touches and an obvious French influence. The atmosphere is hushed and inviting. Recommended for a romantic dinner, for example. Skopik&Lohn is also a bar.

Another old-fashioned pub, 100% authentic Viennese. It's been around since 1952 and distills tradition in a pleasant way. You'll enjoy a lovely interior, with several large, characterful rooms, or a small terrace overlooking the street. Service is meticulous and Viennese cuisine makes a few concessions to international flavors. The establishment maintains its good reputation in the city's gastronomic landscape. Feel free to order Austrian dishes at mealtimes, or just come in for a drink to enjoy the scenery.

This Beisl was opened by Matthias Czaak in 1926, in the Postsparkasse district, a little off the beaten tourist track. It's an authentic Beisl offering tasty, hearty local cuisine at reasonable prices. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, with a touch of artistry and intellectualism, and the service is efficient, which is not often the case in touristy Beisl... An address that really deserves to be known. Perhaps you'll make it your canteen? Tuesday is roast pork, cabbage and dumplings...

We're in the Viennese tradition here, with typical decor and a warm, no-fuss atmosphere. We appreciate the pretty inner courtyard, the kitsch decor and the wooden furniture. In the picturesque Grinzing district, Rudolfshof's Heuriger offers Viennese specialties such as vegetable puff pastry, tender meats in sauce, cabbage, sausages and melt-in-your-mouth desserts. All tasty and calorific, especially as the portions are copious. It's a refreshing change of scenery, but still quite touristy and popular.

A cosy, traditional, family-run establishment since 1957. You can sit down in a clean room and enjoy friendly service before seeing generous, appetizing plates arrive. Here you can enjoy good value for money in a cosy, friendly atmosphere. Friendly cuisine with hexagonal touches: the chef worked in Paris for several years. We love his boiled beef, goulash and escalope viennoise. The cellar houses a wide variety of wines. A good address!

A typically Austrian address with a very pleasant terrace, in the heart of a neighborhood that's home to some trendy new addresses and close to a university. Here, you'll enjoy caloric, honest local cuisine at affordable prices. The bright, high-ceilinged dining room is a delight. You'll bump into local regulars and a few students. Traditional, friendly service. There's also a small store where you can buy a drink, bread, pastries, sandwiches, fruit... Closed in July.

You will certainly appreciate the warm atmosphere of this traditional hostel style establishment. Everything is clean and a little outdated. You will discover a small menu but good dishes in this restaurant popular with the locals. The place looks like a tavern, the service is attentive and the whole has character. A few tables are set up on the terrace on sunny days. A la carte: dishes based on organic meat and vegetables. It is copious and tasty. The wine list is carefully selected.

A rather warm restaurant with a wooden ceiling. A varied cuisine with several traditional dishes. Very good pizzas cooked on a wood fire. The arugula on some of the pizzas is very fresh, as are the vegetables. Pizzas well topped and thin dough. Many other dishes are offered: meats, fish, soups, sandwiches, polenta, bruschetta, several kinds of pasta, burgers... In short, there is something for everyone. The little extra: the children's menus which will please the bambini ! A nice address.

Kostner is the cafeteria of Mayrhofen: in the morning, the sportsmen and women have a competitor's breakfast, at lunchtime they sit down to a sandwich, a salad or a schnitzel with breadcrumbs, and at snack time they enjoy an apple strudel or a large bowl of ice cream. It is also an excellent bakery, with a nice variety of breads and pastries. A large room and, above all, a large and pleasant terrace that occupies three sides of the building. A beautiful address where it is really good to spend time!

It is as if the very essence of Sankt Anton is concentrated here! Built in 1912, this former hunting lodge in pure Tyrolean style was the birthplace of the history of skiing in Sankt Anton. This fascinating story is open to visitors on the first floor in the various rooms of the museum, and is presented in the kitchen on the ground floor by the chef Manuel Hoffmann, who brilliantly uses local products in a traditional and innovative Austrian cuisine. A must-see!

Look out for the elephant sign! An excellent address. This is the small restaurant of the 4-star hotel of the same name, housed in a historic ^13th-century building in the heart of the old town, just off the Getreidegasse. Enjoy hearty, tasty traditional Austrian cuisine in the dining room or on the cobblestone sidewalk, in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Excellent value for money. It's also a bar where you can make a pleasant stopover during your visit to old Salzburg. The new generation of the family is at the helm.

The two hands in the logo symbolize fraternity between peoples. Slogan: falafel against racism! Habibi & Hawara, two words of friendship, one for the Maghreb, the other for Israel. Popular with families and students alike, this brand is characterized by its ethics, employing migrants, creating a warm atmosphere and generously offering Oriental flavors. Hummus, labneh, tabbouleh, stew and even baklava are all perfect! The lunch buffet is superb, as are the stew dishes. A real favorite!
