Gasthaus Griesbauer - Mariatrost

The Gasthaus Griesbauer is a great traditional restaurant in the green belt of Graz. This place is located at the city limits therefore very idyllic when it comes to nature. Here you can have a perfect time out from busy city life. You will get many of the traditional and authentic local food of the Styrian/Austrian cuisine. When the weather is right you can even sit outside in the fine guest garden with many tables under the trees. As for meal, we had a Breaded Fried Chicken with Bread Dumpling and a Fried Liver with Jam and of course we had a table in the patio under the trees. The Griesbauer is quite popular for multiple reason. From Graz with Love! Dr. Dr Immanuel Fruhmann

Traditional restaurant near Graz. English speakers and very friendly team. The traditional chicken and the cakes are very good. There is a nice space for kids.

...you might enjoy it if not, tough luck! It happened to me twice in a row that we prebooked a certain table, only to learn on arrival that our table was given to some of their regular bussi bussi customers. But according to their management no problem, as all of their tables are ok so where 's the problem? Also tried their garden...big mistake their untrained and inexperienced service staff walk by dirty tables emty handed, they have no idea who just arrived, who needs a menu or even is ready to order all the while leaving dirty dishes from previous customers on the tables in front of new arrivals even after having eventually taken the order, walking away emty handed yet again. However, the food is really good and the Manageress/Owner is usually very friendly. Good food, bad handling of reservations, poorly trained service staff on weekends all in all a 3 star experience...

Food fine. Service terrible. The waiter was motivated, but alone for 30 tables. Wait time was 1:30 h.

Big and very attractive playgrounds for the Kids, great Food, small menue, good Drinks at average Prices (low for a Suburban area). Due to Sunday afternoon and nice weather the place was packed with People so the Service was a Little slow but that did not affect the moods since everything else was perfect!
