Frankly, Knoll Loibnerhof was not our first choice for the late October evening, as we lived in…read moreDurnstein (2 km from there), and we were looking for some restaurant in Durnstein. But it was a Sunday evening and all was closed, quite, silent. Therefore, we decided try that famous Knoll place, which is usually pretty busy ... and a bit posh. But I have to tel you, we have got the best experience. Great soups (a Fish Soup with safran, a Goose Soup with liver dumplings), Roasted Pork with Dumplings, a delicious Tafelspitz, and Plum Dumplings, hmm. All accompanied with a wonderfully fresh Gruener Veltliner Federspiel Knoll 2012. The pride of this restaurant is its spacy orchard garden, of course, but it was too late and too cold to sit outside. So we were inside this time, in a nice and clean, blue-green interier, with nice white tables. We will be definitely coming back. Thank you!

The views across the vineyards were lovely. the service easy and informative. We chose Sour Blood Sausage in vinegar, the cheese plate, blood sausage with horseradish and mustard and the sheep cheese in aioli/pesto. it was all delicious and easily one of the best meals we have had in our 4 weeks stay in Wachau. I would love to have had time to work my way through those sour dishes. Highly Recommended. I think it was the first turning of the street as you walk into Durnstein village. Big beers and chilled white wine to wash it down.
