There were loads of interesting things on the menus and I opted for a cream of game soup that was predictably rich and delicious and then a goose and vegetable risotto that less predictably worked very well! Great comfort food on a chilly night. It was super quiet on a Wednesday night so a bit lacking in atmosphere but overall I liked the simple rustic feel and the variety of the dishes.

Apparently the oldest surviving restaurant in Spittelberg, which once upon a time had a shadey…read morereputation. I've eaten here probably three or four times over the years- think somewhat modernised spins on Austrian classics( e.g tafelspitz with citrus) The set menus are not to be sniffed at, nor the excellent wine list (of essentially local wine only). I'd recommend coming in the winter, when there are fewer tourists, it's not as rammed - although the outdoor seating is nice in summer- and the service is a bit more attentive.

I'm surprised at the low overall rating for Witwe Bolt - we had a very good experience here…read more Originally, we had tried to go to Gasthaus am Spittelberg but they have winter hours and were closed. Witwe Bolt was across the square and had a non-smoking room, so why not? Dinners start with bread and tasty spreads and I opted for a glass of Prosecco as well. Sadly, it was flat - but that was really the only downside of our meal. We split a mixed salad which was nice and fresh, and I opted for the tafelspitz. Witwe Bolt's version was tender and not fatty and served with carrots, parsnips and turnips. It was the second best tafelspitz of the trip, edged out by Boheme down the street. My husband tried Zweibelrostbraten - essentially flank steak with onion strings. He was really happy with his dinner - he said the quality of the meat was very good. Our waiter was really friendly, and never let glasses go dry. The other patrons were quite friendly as well - we ended up talking to an Austrian/British couple who recommended some of their favorite local places for dinner which was really nice. As a bonus, the restaurant is quite historic - it was built in the late 1700's and one door bears an inscription letting you know that Emperor Joseph II was kicked out of here back in the days when this was a tavern. If you're interested in Spittelberg history, our dining room had several books on this, including one with photos of buildings pre and post restoration.

Nice place, garden and food. I was here due to a recommendation for ribs. Many flavours with one…read moretype of rib. The ribs were 'Austrian' style as I was told, which meant cooked but tough. Personally I'm not a fan due to the following: - I like my meat to fall off the bone, - I don't like strings of fat or chew in my bites. If you are the opposite of me, then you'll love these ribs! We had 4 portions of the 3-rack sampler giving us the flexibility to try all flavours. Stay away from the cheese ribs unless you like wet and stinky meat. Otherwise for the tough rib, these rank high with the likes of strand café and zur alte kaiser mühler. I also tried the crepe with nuts inside. OK if you want watery tasting nuts in a wet crepe.

The menu is simple in its pleasures you have your staple Spare Ribs etc and the other menu items have a good value for money e.g. Schweinsbraterl im Hirter Schwarzbiersafterl mit Sauerkrauter & Serviettenknöderl which at 10.50 euro is ok. The service at the restaurant is very good and would totally agree with Stefan H. previous review that it is a rare sight indeed in Vienna that the service / people would apologize for not getting it right 1st time..... However the service is good even when full to capacity the waiter / waitresses are from my observations alert to the needs of the paying customer. Ok the Bierstöckl is a little outside of the main city (Gurtel) but if you're paying a visit to the Schönbrunn then it is no harm and taking a little walk further on from the / Die Gloriette on a tree lined street to the restaurant. The location also has ample parking and is easily reached via the obligatory!! :-) SATNAV The outside area is tree covered and directly behind the outside area is a small play-park / Kinderspeilen area for the kids to have some fun while waiting for their food. All in all I give it 4 stars due to the reason that My family & I are quire regular visitors to the Bierstöckl and the food on nearly every occasion has been very satisfying, the staff make you feel most welcome and the location is for the most part child friendly. Go check it out! if you're out that way maybe you will be on your way back from Lainzer Tor all in and make your own mind up. Now looking for the next ( yummy yummy) Restaurant to check out

The menu is mixture between American and European meals and they have a large beverage selection. I can recommend the burgers, ribs and wings, and the tasty Enchiladas. The outdoor seating is great during the summer days/nights and its a perfectly OK to bring along the children of all ages. Above all the service is excellent and the location is completely clean. The waiters are multilingual and completely friendly. Edelmann you've been Yelped! ;-) See you there! The Texan
