Gasthaus Waltz in München

Am liebsten würde ich noch mehr Sterne geben. Fantastische Küche, super guter Service, traditionelle, gemütliche Atmosphäre und eine ganz tolle Weinkarte. Einfach ein Traum.

Tolles Essen, eine herausragende Weinkarte und ein herzlicher Service in einem schönen, rustikales Ambiente! Immer wieder einen Besuch wert!

Ois Leiwand. Hans Moser und Josefine Mutzenbacher hätten dieses Gasthaus wohl nur zu gern erlebt. Eine Ode an die österreichische Küche! Eine Weinkarte, die süchtig machen kann. 3 Gang Menü Mittags bestellt. Saures Rind - Wiener Schnitzel - Rhabarber. Hmm. Ich liebe Wiener Schnitzel und habe wohl am Sonntag das beste meines Lebens gegessen. Nur was mache ich jetzt? Wo kann ich jetzt noch Wiener Schnitzel essen wenn nicht dort? Gäbe es 7 Sterne ich würde sie geben. Denn auch das Ambiente ist stimmig und einen so unglaublich flinken und herzlichen Service findet man heutzutage in der Münchner Gastronomie selten. Bist deppert war des geil!

Fantastisches Restaurant. Alles war hervorragend, und der Service war erstklassig. Ein wunderbarer Start in eine München-Reise!

Sehr freundlicher und profesioneller Service, ausgezeichnetes Essen und eine angenehme Atmosphäre. Man fühlt sich direkt willkommen und das Personal ist aufmerksam und herzlich. Danke für den schönen Abend!

Wirklich phantastisch! Ohne wenn und aber. Ein ,Gasthaus‘, wie man es sich wünscht! Vielen Dank!

Gutes Essen, warmes und einladendes Ambiente und guter Service.

Gekocht wird hier auf allerhöchstem Niveau. Freundlicher Service, zumindest an einem Samstagabend muss man aber genügend Zeit mitbringen. Die nicht-alkoholische Abteilung der Getränkekarte könnte ein paar österreichische Akzente vertragen, etwa ein Soda Zitrone oder eine der vielen originellen Kracherl-Varianten. Auch ein sortenreiner Trauben- oder Quittensaft wäre ein Gewinn.

Kundenservice gleich null, hatte dort einen Tisch reserviert, bei der ersten Buchung wurde meine Kreditkarte nicht akzeptiert, bei der zweiten hat es dann funktioniert, diese wurde auch von mir ordnungsgemäß storniert aus gesundheitlichen Gründen. Ein paar Tage später werden mir dann 100€ belastet, daraufhin schriebe ich das Gasthaus an, und teilte mit das ich storniert hatte und auch eine Mail dazu erhalten habe. Die Dame erklärte mir dann das sei für meine andere Reservierung diese nicht storniert wurde, ich erklärte ihr das ich hierzu nichts erhalten hatte und nur eine Ablehnung meiner Kreditkarte erhalten habe, trotz mehrfacher Erklärung meinerseits, hat die Dame auf die Reservierung verhart, ich sagte ihr dann okay wenn die Zahlung nicht zurück genommen wird, lasse ich diese zurück gehen. Nun ja ich hab mein Geld wieder erhalten, aber das Gasthaus diskutiert immer noch mit meiner Bank. Einfach nur unprofessionell wenn sogar ersichtlich ist das die Buchungen beide von mir getätigt worden sind, da in beiden mein Nachname ersichtlich war, gleiches Datum und gleiche Uhrzeit. Von so einem Gasthaus würde ich erwarten per Mail oder Telefon gefragt zu werden ob es sich hier nicht um ein versehen handelt und mir nicht hier noch Geld abbuchen.. sicherlich kein Besuch wert !!

Einer unserer Lieblings-Läden um Geburtstage zu feiern 😊

Ich habe den Service als sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend empfunden. Das Essen fand ich vom Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis durchschnittlich. Beim Gericht Fledermaus befand sich in dem mir servierten Gurken-Kartoffel-Salat ein scharfes Stück Plastik, das ich von der Aufreißlasche fertig verpackter Salate aus dem Supermarkt kenne. Durch gutes Kauen konnte ich das Plastikteil rechtzeitig im Mund spüren. Der Kellner meinte, dass der Gurken-Kartoffel-Salat in Verpackungen gelagert würde und dass das Plastik von diesen Verpackungen stamme. Ich habe dann einen Ersatz-Gurken-Kartoffel-Salat bestellt, hätte mir in einem Restaurant dieser Preisklasse aber mehr Entgegenkommen der Kellner gewünscht.

Ausgezeichnetes Restaurant. Ich komme wieder!

Ausgezeichnetes Essen und Service, dabei bleibt die gemütliche Atmosphäre eines traditionellen Gasthauses erhalten. Ich empfehle das 5-Gänge-Menü.

Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit, die Bedienung war sehr nett und das Essen hervorragend! Absolut empfehlenswert 😊

Tolles Gasthaus mit gehonener Küche aus Österreich und superfreundlichem Service. Nicht ganz billig, aber das Geld wert. Meine Frau und ich werden wieder kommen.

Das Erlebnis entsprach dem Preis. Man zahlt viel, bekommt aber auch viel.

Einfach authentisch auf höchstem Niveau. Die Weine, der Service so unfassbar auf den Punkt. Irre wie genial man Wirtshaus bezogen auf die Gerichte interpretiert. Menü flexibel wählbar zu einem unschlagbaren Preis.

Unglaubliches Essen, unglaubliche Auswahl an verschiedenen Weinen und toller Service.

Ein gemütliches österreichisches Restaurant. Das Essen ist gut, aber etwas zu salzig (vielleicht Geschmackssache). Service und Essensausgabe sind ebenfalls gut. Ach ja, das Käseeis ist wirklich sehr lecker.

Ausgewählte Gerichte, sehr sehr guter Service, schönes Ambiente, hervorragende Weinkarte - einfach ein gelungener Abend :)

Wir hatten heute einen tollen Abend im Restaurant Waltz! Das Essen war vorzüglich, der Service sehr herzlich und jeder Gang wurde erklärt. Die Atmosphäre war super gemütlich! Wir kommen wieder! Toll!

Einfach erste Klasse. Essen super lecker. Service charmant und mit so viel Empathie. Das ist Ambiente zum wohl fühlen. Obwohl das Restaurant bis auf den letzten Platz gefüllt war, konnte man sich gut unterhalten. Ich komme definitiv wieder

Excellent food. Traditional German cuisine with a modern twist. High quality that comes at a price.

Excellent food, excellent service!

I was very satisfied with the food, wine pairing, and service.

Simply amazing! This restaurant is perfect for anyone who wants to experience affordable, lovingly cooked, and absolutely perfectly seasoned food. Classic Austrian/German cuisine with a modern twist and a solid concept behind it. The service is super friendly and attentive, and they're always up for a quick chat. Please keep up the great work! :)

An evening at Gasthaus Waltz in the Glockenbachviertel district is definitely worth the trip. The evening begins with incredibly attentive yet pleasantly relaxed service – you feel welcome and well taken care of from the very first moment. The cuisine follows a clear vision: Styrian-influenced, regionally inspired, and executed with high-quality products. The menu is deliberately concise, resulting in a focused and coherent experience. Instead of classic pub fare, you'll find creative interpretations of traditional dishes that surprise without denying their origins. This very combination of tradition and modern flair is what makes it so appealing. The very flexible menu policy is particularly impressive: whether you opt for four or five courses, you can largely combine dishes freely from the menu. Such flexibility is rare, allowing you to tailor your meal precisely to your own taste. The wine list is equally impressive: extensive, thoughtfully curated, and featuring many interesting bottles beyond the usual suspects. Those who follow the team's recommendations will be rewarded. All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable culinary experience. The Waltz convincingly demonstrates how a modern inn can function today – Inn 2.0. Highly recommended.

Very nice ambiance and outstanding service, including coat check. Some of the food was lacking: The salad. The yeast dumplings. The cheese dumplings, however, were very good. We missed having Wiener Schnitzel on the dinner menu. Interesting wine list. Mini wheat beer (0.33l). Plenty of schnapps selection. The 2cl for €9 was not a revelation. Perhaps the €24 one is better?

Although very crowded and correspondingly loud (as is almost always the case), it offered excellent food and very good service.

Excellent Austrian cuisine with a modern twist, superb, friendly and incredibly attentive service, relaxed atmosphere. A place you'll want to return to.

It was our first visit here with the family and we felt completely at ease. The food was outstanding – delicate, perfectly balanced sauces and exceptional dishes. The service was very attentive and friendly. We will definitely be back!

The ambiance is simply beautiful and invites you to linger.

A good fine-dining restaurant with very good service. Unfortunately, when booking a table for 6:00 PM, you only have two hours to eat a four- or five-course meal, which the kitchen can just barely serve within that timeframe. Five minutes later, you are already asked to leave to make room for the next guests. Considering a bill of €330, this is rather questionable behavior.

Lovely atmosphere, excellent service, and good food. We had a wonderful evening and will definitely come back. The food was good, but a few minor things bothered us. The salad was dressed very acidically, and some of the main course portions were a bit small. Overall, though, everything was really delicious!

Gasthaus Waltz offers upscale cuisine with traditional references at good and fair prices. The service is very attentive, and the extensive wine list features many excellent selections. It was a wonderful evening, and we'll be back soon.

Today, a group of five, we visited Gashaus Waltz for the first time, but definitely not the last. The service was fantastic, friendly, and attentive, leaving absolutely nothing to be desired. We opted for the five-course menu and were more than thrilled. The food was incredible, the combinations were wonderful, and the presentation was superb (whether fresh from the kitchen or served at the table). The timing between courses was also perfectly balanced. Thank you for a wonderful evening, and we wish the team all the best.

A superb restaurant with consistently friendly service and excellent cuisine. Refined, but not pretentious. Plus, always an interesting wine list.

I was looking for a restaurant with a little bit of a higher quality than the average to celebrate a special occasion and found this. The place is pleasant, the service is attentive (even though at times it might not be fully consistent), and food quite comforting. With a Bib Gourmand classification, I look at the experience through a different lens of expectations.

We had the most romantic incredible meal here when visiting Munich and so sad that we will never be back to try your food again 🥲 The staff were really lovely and friendly looking after us, talking through all the dishes and spoke great English to help us! Would highly recommend to come here as you won’t be disappointed by the gorgeous food they serve

A very, very nice inn with Austrian cuisine. Excellent service and good value for money on the menus.

From the warm welcome at the door and the effortless, friendly service, to the delicious food, beautifully and tastefully presented, the evening was a delight. I almost deducted a point for the ambiance due to the noise level, but the cozy and welcoming atmosphere made even this minor drawback seem perfectly natural. Kudos to the entire team!

We were there on a Sunday as a couple and felt things were a bit chaotic. Our table wasn't ready, and it took a while for our drinks to arrive. We didn't get our first meal (delicious bread) for almost an hour. The service improved, and the wines were very good. The food was good, although the hazelnut cream soup and the veal cheeks weren't entirely convincing. The price-performance ratio was good, but we felt it was a bit low for a Bib Gourmand.

Excellent service, great atmosphere and food. A highly recommended place!

We had lunch at Gasthaus Waltz on a Sunday and had been wanting to try it after previously visiting their sister wine bar, Garbo. I was initially a bit surprised by a confirmation call about an hour after making our reservation for the next day, though I’m sure there are good reasons for it, and it ultimately adds to the personal experience. From the moment we arrived, we had a wonderful lunch experience. The service is incredibly kind, personal, and genuinely humorous, and we felt truly welcome throughout. The interior is cozy and inviting, offering a refined dining experience in an upscale, Wirtshaus-style setting that feels both relaxed and special. The food was excellent across the board, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. We especially appreciated how accommodating the kitchen and service were - one of us chose the lunch menu while the other ordered à la carte, which was handled effortlessly and without hesitation. That level of flexibility is quite unusual and very much appreciated. The wine list is outstanding, and even if you don’t want to commit to a full bottle, there are excellent by-the-glass options that pair beautifully with the food - some with exceptional value for money. We’ll definitely be back. One of the unpretentious stars of Munich’s restaurant scene!

A great inn, but excellent nonetheless, thanks for the amazing evening! 🫠

The food is the same as the atmosphere: classic German food with German hospitality, but what it sets it apart is it’s wine list. From the greatest German wines to classic France; everything is there. My favorite restaurant in München.

Very nice restaurant serving Austrian cuisine. We had a place at the bar which was great. Reservations needed as the place is usually quite packed.

We had a 5 course menu (which takes around 2 hours). I was surprised that you can choose whatever you prefer (e.g. two mains, instead of soup and main course,…) which offers a lot of flexibility. The service was great and the restaurant doesn’t feel too packed, as there is space between tables. This place could have been on Vienna!

Gasthaus Waltz is an Austrian-Inspired Alpine Restaurant in Munich, offering creative takes on traditional Austrian and Alpine cuisine. They offer a la carte options, but they also have a 4 course menu for € 69 and a 5 course menu for € 75. We opted to do their 4-course menu, since we wanted to try a few of their dishes. A highlight was the duck terrine appetizer as well as the trout entree with braised cucumbers and Veltliner foam and mashed potatoes. The staff here were absolutely delightful and honestly, I think the best service we had during our entire time in Germany.

From the cozy atmosphere and the attentive and very friendly service to the delicious and lovingly presented food, everything was simply perfect! We will definitely come back.

The authentic Austrian cuisine was great. The people who work there are fantastic and gave fabulous recommendations. Book your reservations well ahead.

good food n warm service :) somm knows his stuff and the team is passionate! thnk u for the great night!

Had a wonderful meal at Gasthaus Waltz. The food was uniformly delicious and the service friendly and attentive.

Great wine list and desserts were fantastic. Thanks Stefan and Markus for having us!

This is a lovely place I liked the clean aesthetic ambiance. Menu done for a choice of having a 4 or 5 course set menu (you can choose from a selection of options). The food was great, good quality ingredients- some dishes were more overwhelming than others, but ultimately we found it was a good value for money in terms of food. Wine was also good we had a sav blanc, on the more expensive side for a white non-aged wine for my liking, but it was very nice. The service was very good - they all were knowledgeable, able to advise, many of the dishes were served at the table by pouring so a bit of a show was performed and all spoke English as well as German (we had a mixed table). The only area of improvement I’d suggest here would be the timing - idk how many times do they turn around the tables per evening, but a 2 hour window for 3 people who potentially want to have a 5 course meal is not enough. We had one of us running 12 mins late (cos Munich on a Friday evening at 18:00 duh), meanwhile I ordered drinks and asked about the menu when they came to ask for our food orders we all wanted 5 courses and they said we will not have the time for that … Now, eating at a place like this (mind I’m a generous spender when I go to a place I like the food at I’ll spend money but I also want to enjoy it) we should not be chased it’s really not a good customer experience. Ofc no one wants people to sit over 1 glass of wine for hours so I get that but we ate and drank properly - they extended our table reservation by some time so we can still have a Schnaps to finish up and enjoy our deserts, but just the notion of rushing us had not left the right feeling behind - so if you can fix the timing (or the Munich traffic -not sure what’s easier 😉) the experience will be elevated even more. Otherwise a nice place, I register on the Michelin gourmet list for a reason.

Perfect in every possible way! Chapeau guys!!!

The staff were so friendly and helpful, and the food was great with generous portion sizes.

Really great food, but service was a bit slow for my taste (server was great, kitchen was behind i think). Still we had a great time.

Overall, we had an enjoyable evening here! The service was phenomenal - really friendly and personable. We did the four course option, which was plenty of food. The bread, char, lamb lettuce and hazelnut soup were delicious and a very strong start to the meal. The mains (pork neck & veal goulash) fell a little bit short in comparison; the pork neck was tasty but not very special, while the veal goulash had some pieces which were quite dry (that was the most disappointing). Dessert (apple compote & spice cake) was then a decent end to the meal. Overall, a really nice dinner and I would recommend it.

A cool combination of local and fine dining.

The servers are incredibly attentive and hospitable, the flexibility and accommodations are incredible, and the food was stunning. Please go here if you’re going to Munich! The owner even works the front of house and is also kind and warm.

Excellent, modern interpretations of Austrian cuisine. I had veal tongue with leek, apple, and pumpkin seed oil cream as a starter, followed by chestnut soup, and then fried chicken and apple compote as the main course. Everything was very, very good. The service and sommelier recommendations were also top-notch! The wine recommendation perfectly matched my taste and harmonized beautifully with the menu. We had a table reservation for 6:00 PM and were asked to vacate the table around 8:30 PM. The service was incredibly friendly, attentive, and unhurried, but we would have loved to stay a little longer. If possible, book in advance and choose a time slot around 7:00 or 8:00 PM. I'll definitely be back.

It really couldn't be better! The food is fantastic! The service is outstanding. We have rarely felt so warmly welcomed and cared for. And that goes for all the staff who looked after us that evening. A definite recommendation. Top-notch food, amazing wine, and outstanding service!

An extremely elegant establishment in the center. The theme here is Austria. Wonderful, traditional Austrian dishes, perfectly prepared. The wine list also features our neighboring country, and even some of the service is from there. The lunch menu is affordable. Compliments!

So impressed by the level of service and the quality of food. We got the five course. Each of us got different dishes so I managed to try most of the menu. The tongue was so much better than I ever expected. All of the dishes were a mix of interesting and creative flavors and textures. It seemed like someone was checking on our experience at every turn. Even the bread and spreads were amazing. And I know it is mentioned in other reviews but I want to echo how good the ice cream with pumpkin seed oil was.

Simply wow! The food was exceptionally good – each dish prepared with such attention to detail that you simply had to savor it. The service was attentive, warm, yet pleasantly unobtrusive. The wines were absolutely excellent, perfectly matched! We felt completely at home, and the atmosphere in the restaurant was truly cozy. An evening to remember – we'll definitely be back!

Outstanding food and service - the kale (Grünkohl) is a must

Enjoyed our dinner at Gasthaus Waltz very much! The servers were very friendly and kind. Food was tasty. There were only a couple items from our dishes that were a bit too rich for our taste but that's just personal preference. Highly recommend the ice cream with pumpkin seed oil, it was a very unique and interesting combo

Excellent food, incredible wine list and very good and friendly service.

Waltz is a revelation in many ways—not only oenologically and culinary, but also in terms of service quality, interior design, and feel-good atmosphere. The dishes are a reinterpretation of country inn cuisine, featuring ingredients like chicken hearts and lamb sweetbreads, which are rarely found on menus these days. The wine list is extensive, some with a surprising depth of vintages. Some dishes are light, fresh, and delicate, like the pork belly, while others are deep and dark with strong sauces, like the chicken hearts and lamb. The quail was sensational, and the vanilla ice cream with pumpkin seeds and oil was to die for. We will recommend Waltz to all our friends and acquaintances and will continue to "edit" the wine and menu the next time we are in Munich.

A place with potential to become a favorite restaurant! Excellent food, a fantastic wine selection, and exceptionally friendly and professional service. Highly recommended – including the bar seats (if you can't get a table at short notice). Authentic, extremely high-quality, refined Alpine cuisine; a casual yet cozy ambiance.

My wife and I had dinner here to celebrate our two year wedding anniversary. We are so happy we chose to celebrate at Gasthaus Waltz. Excellent food, wine selection and hospitality. We will definitely stop by again if we return to Munich.

Simply wonderful! I highly recommend the host and his team! Top!

Everything is highly recommended, but not cheap either: 500 euros for 5 people.

We had an amazing dinner experience here! They fit us in right at opening, and they still made it an extra special experience. All the food was extraordinary, wine list was superb, and espresso to finish it off was splendid. Highly recommend

Delicious food, super friendly staff and great atmosphere ❤️ we'll be happy to come back!

A very limited menu, which is usually a good sign, and the food was 10/10. There is a good selection of mostly German and Austrian wines, but the prices made me think twice. The service was good but too slow - please hire more staff!

Wonderful experience - food was delicious, service was warm and attentive, absolutely recommend!

A great restaurant concept with a very well-curated wine list. The food and the quality of the service perfectly round out the visit. Children are also wonderfully catered to. Highly recommended!

The Gasthaus Waltz is a highlight for us every time. The casual yet welcoming atmosphere never fails to impress. We particularly appreciate the fantastic menu concept, the excellent food, the warm hospitality, and the impressive wine selection. And of course, Grandma's classic is a must on any visit. 😍

It was beautiful, excellent in everything, the staff, the kitchen, the bar, everything good, I recommend it to everyone.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A true gem among Munich's restaurants! Gasthaus Waltz impresses with modern, creative cuisine based on high-quality regional ingredients. The dishes are sophisticated, delicious, and beautifully presented. The ambiance is stylish, cozy, and relaxed at the same time—perfect for a special evening or a relaxed meal with friends. The service is warm, attentive, and highly professional. A great place that's definitely worth a visit!

TRIPLE WOW!! We had the 3-course lunch menu and were truly impressed. From the service to the dishes, everything was spot on. A spectacle at a reasonable price. We'd be happy to go back.

Beautiful dining room, friendly service. The food was excellent, especially the cold bell pepper soup, trout and lentils, and ice cream "Grammy's recipe"

Excellent, creative cuisine, with a strong (Austrian) feel, and very friendly staff – we're always happy to return. Unfortunately, the wine prices (per glass) are too high.

Such a great little restaurant! We dined outside and enjoyed 4 courses each + bread (at a set price & you get to choose what you have). The staff spoke English and were really friendly and helpful. They chose glasses of wine for us that complimented our food choices. Food-wise, we especially enjoyed the fried chicken and the pork schnitzel. The lemon and cherry deserts were also delightful. I fully recommend eating here if you’re in Munich!

Not my first time here, always good to very good. Yesterday I had a bit of bad luck with the schnitzel. The pieces of meat were a bit large in my opinion and therefore not as tender as they could have been. The highlight of the visit, however, was definitely the table next to me (see the 5x 1* reviews). I've never experienced anyone like that lady in a restaurant before. While it was very entertaining for the rest of the restaurant, I really felt sorry for the poor service staff.

not a place to have a good time..

Always great! We're always very satisfied. Top-quality food, fantastic wine selection. Always a pleasant atmosphere. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Intimate atmosphere, friendly staff, amazing food!

The Gasthaus Waltz aims to bring Viennese cuisine to Munich. The team, with their authentic dialect, does a great job; they're very friendly and attentive. Guests feel welcome. The restaurant is also inviting. And now comes the criticism: The ratio of meat to breading in the Wiener Schnitzel was very much in favor of the breading. I would have expected more. I've seen it differently. We really enjoyed the side dishes, appetizer, and dessert. And yes, the wine list is extensive. Sometimes less is more. The prices are reasonable by Munich standards, but not cheap.

We reserved a table for 6:00 PM on Thursday evening, and it was a thoroughly enjoyable evening! Charlotte, our hostess, gave us an incredibly warm welcome at the reception desk, making us feel at home immediately. Her friendliness, professionalism, and attentive manner made the evening unforgettable. The interior of the inn is lovingly designed with a keen sense of aesthetics and thoughtful details—simply a place where you feel at home. Since we were only a little hungry, we opted for a fresh salad and a truly excellent cordon bleu each. Following a recommendation, I tried a non-alcoholic drink from Villbrygg, which was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be back with friends and send my warmest regards to Charlotte and the entire team. See you soon!

At Gasthaus Waltz, you feel truly at home; the service is very friendly and attentive. The food was excellent. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with its simplicity and doesn't feel overcrowded. I'd be happy to come back.

Fantastic wine list and very knowledgeable and passionate Sommelier 👍

Excellent service – very friendly, personable, professional, attentive, unobtrusive, competent – simply perfect. The ambiance is very nice – quiet, cozy, quaint yet modern. The food is high quality, some dishes are freshly cooked, and everything is delicious. We'd love to come back!

I had the char, my girlfriend the schnitzel, and we both enjoyed it immensely. We were particularly impressed by the attentive and friendly service. We felt very comfortable.

Bread cheese and carrot sauce Each sauce is excellent and the bread is also delicious TROUT CARROT, BUCKWHEAT & TARRAGON The salmon cooked at low temperature has a great flavor and texture, and goes very well with the pumpkin sauce and chips DEEP FRIED GNOCCHI CHARD, LETSCHO & SMOKED BELL PEPPER FOAM VENISON STEW MUSHROOMS, RED CURRANTS & PARSLEY ROOT The ceps are very chewy and the venison is juicy and delicious. LEMON TARTE BAISER, PUMPKIN SEED-PRALINE & HERB SORBET The black bean sorbet and lemon are very refreshing. The sesame is also effective at the bottom.

Unfortunately, this restaurant has more of a Munich chic feel to it than a Viennese restaurant. According to the menu, the food served here "represents the simplicity and down-to-earthness of Austrian cuisine." In Viennese, all I can say is, "You can blame someone else for that silliness." Anyone who rolls up a Gordon Bleu and then serves it in a centimeter-thick breading is wasting good veal, doing no one a favor, and simply underscoring their own helplessness. By the way, there's a difference between speckled and floury potatoes. You can make potato salad (a.k.a. Erdäpfelsalat) out of the former. You can't make the latter. Krautfleckerln (sauerkraut noodles) are a classic of Viennese cuisine. If you know what you're doing, you can conjure up a delicacy. If you're overwhelmed, you'll waste no time messing around with morels and velouté. The service, which on a hot day initially pours a silly tasting sip of grape juice, but then tries to clear the glass before you've finished, seems more tiring than attentive. If effort and fuss are more important to you than quality and authenticity, you can sit down here. The place is certainly cozy.

Overrated. Average food, poorly poured wines, servers who were sometimes good, sometimes rude. Only the dessert was really good. Overall, disappointing.

Great restaurant. Friendly service, great wine list, and superb food.
