Herzog's Wirtshaus

If you are looking for Authentic Austrian, this is the place. The schnitzel was outstanding and massive. the spaetzle was creamy, cheesy and addicting.

If you are looking for a special night out, go elsewhere! For a casual average meal with average service this was ok. Menu was all handwritten german which even my german friends couldn't read: menu limited and we had to wait ages before our food...came (to be fair they did apologise as a huge group had come in before us... but we had booked some weeks before so really this should have been planned for). Just not my cup of tea all in all... cosy and good for chatting with friends on a casual night out...food didn't wow at all. But was freshly cooked. Would suggest a nice place to take the kids for some Austrian food.

Leicht, aber zu gut

While there is not only traditional Viennese cuisine to be found here, everything is hand hand selected, hand cooked and served in incredible quality. The tables might have a more rustic charm, but don't let them or the simple entrance fool you: this is a place of highest cuisine. If it would be located in the first district it would be renown around the world, but on the other hand, maybe it's better that it's still a more unknown place to most visitors of Vienna.Just let me say this: if you stumble across my review and you like to go where tourists normally not go and then be overwhelmed by one of the best cooks in Vienna, I would recommend this place to you.Please call and reserve your table, it's quite small and the menu is most times handwritten on the same day. Don't expect that you can order from dozens of dishes. Better don't expect anything, except one of the best culinary experiences you can have in my town.

We enjoyed a delicious home cooked meal of simple and delicious Austrian traditional cousine: the pork cheek with mesh potatoes and boiled meat with pumpkin puree. They were both very well made and fulfilling. Soul food Austrian style. Highly recommended.
