Came here after seeing excellent reviews on Yelp…read more Not impressed. Waited about 15 mins to get seated even though multiple tables were empty. The staff is limited and looks exhausted. Quite tight seating. Restrooms are not accessible by people with limited mobility. No baby changing stations. The food is okay. The schnitzel was fine and so was lamb. Okay to eat but not memorable. Caprese salad was tasty. In conclusion, if you are passing by and hungry, feel free to stop by. If you are looking for a memorable lunch/dinner experience, plan to visit a different establishment.

While on its own it can get a bit one note, if you pair it with the sauces and potatoes, it's a wonderful mix. Service is fine, but food is delicious and a local nearby rightfully raved about it

The people on the table next to me were playing a board game, the place is nicely decorated, uses traditional furniture and the service is as friendly as can be in Austria. Not expensive either.

The Steirerstöckl is a classic and ambient country restaurant and Gastgarten in the city ....well…read moreactually it's in a part of the Vienna Woods which happens to be technically within the city boundaries. It's in the attractive Pötzleinsdorf neighborhood of Vienna at the end of the Pötzleinsdorfer Schloss Park. This rustic culinary institution (founded in 1917) is fairly easy to find and well worth it. In winter it is a warm outpost when the world around it is clothed in white. In summer it can be a welcome stop on a hike in the Vienna Woods. And that is important to know. Though the food is quite good here and nicely highlights the cuisine of the Steirmark, it is also definitely not cheap to eat here. But you can also just enjoy some great Styrian wine in their outdoor garden before completing your hike and returning to the city. Anyway, if you're living in Vienna, learn where the Steirerstöckl is as there is not really another eating & drinking establishment that close to it. You never know when you might be in the Pötzleinsdorf neighborhood or surrounding Vienna Woods!

Excellent Austrian cuisine with a Styrian twist! My rating is based on the taste of the food and…read morehere are the details: Chanterelle mushroom cream soup - very good with a lot of tiny chanterelles in the bowl. Creamy and yet not too heavy. I also liked small potato chunks in the soup which added additional texture. Styrian beef carpaccio - also very good, properly dressed and well balanced. Sheep cheese carpaccio - thinly sliced home made sheep cheese with rucola and pesto. I combined it with the above beef carpaccio which made a killer pairing. Chicken skewer on a bed of salad. Woohoo! The best chicken skewer I ever had. Three different pieces of chicken on a skewer - plain, bacon wrapped and stuffed - cooked to a phenomenally juicy perfection. Pork schnitzel - breaded with an addition of pumpkin seeds and pan fried in butter to a golden perfection. Extremely tender and juicy and perfectly seasoned - possibly one of the best ones I ever had in Vienna. Ice cream dumpling - a sweet tradition that shouldn't be avoided. Hazelnut brandy - a must have. Like a liquid, alcohol rich nutella in a glass. Overall, a great performance by the Wirtshaus Steirerstöckl. The service was great and friendly and the only thing that I didn't like is that (like a lot of other restaurants in Vienna) Wirtshaus Steirerstöckl is cash only!

Overall, a very good experience, and an easy walk from the Courtyard Marriott. We both said we would go back next time we are here.

Food dreams can be restored in future nights to come. I guess I just did not care what anyone thought. I took pics anyway. I just thought I was being sensitive to other patrons. Let's just say I tried to not be too obnoxious about it. So, yes I did consume with my camera first! I can say with absolute certainty, that this was our most perfect and intimate dining experience in Vienna. It was just lunch! The surrounding patrons appeared to be locals with huge platters of piping hot Wienerschnitzel, succulent looking meat falling off the bone....oh my, I could go on and on. Lord help me, that was a great experience. I ordered an exquisite Riesling that was perfect with my meal. I ordered the Goose Soup to start with. I shake my head now in disbelief of how perfect this soup was and LUSCIOUS. It had this potato dumpling in the middle that absorbed the creamy broth with every single bite. I was sad to see the dumpling and soup go away as I savored every spoonful. My husband had a potato soup that included mushrooms and he was pretty much freaking out about his soup as much as I was (in his own, subdued, calm manner....opposite mine!). Then Meine Damen und Herren. We have the Weinerschnitzel. Oh my goodness. We split the massive and simply prepared veal weinerschnitzel with the lemon wedge squeezing the only and perfect seasoning you need for this deliciousness in front of you. I cannot even express the greatness of the potato salad that accompanies. Smooth and creamy mustardy goodness. I would seek out this restaurant again. If every authentic Keller type dining experience is this good in Vienna; I am in big trouble!

If you really want to experience Austrian tradition and Austrian hospitality then you are just…read moreright here. You can choose between smaller intimate rooms and huge rooms for celebrations. There is lots of wood and stone, which makes it kind of cozy - a typical winery. In the huge garden there is lots of green and flowers, almost like being in the parks of the Castles of Salzburg or Schoenbrunn. S'Pfiff literarily means the Whistler. But Pfiff describes a special size of beer mug that is in between the large and the small ones. This location is a very successfully renovated traditional winery of this Viennese area, called Glanzing/Döbling. The prices are a bit high, but this is compensated by the ambience and the quality. The service is excellent and the variety of food and drinks is amazing. Besides you get traditional Austrian food you can hardly find nowadays. The variety of Schnitzel and desserts is great. You even get Austrian tarts, which became kind of rare nowadays. Buffets are also arranged upon request. A great place for getting to know Austrian tradition.

Average food in an above average establishment sums up what this restaurant is all about…read more Several meals I had there were not memorable, but were definitely acceptable. The menu is Austrian and with so many Austrian restaurants around Vienna (and this goes for a lot of places in town not just this one) the food has to be exceptional to stand out. Unfortunately, s'Pfiff has an extensive menu that looks as if every dish served in the entire country is included. With a menu of that size, it is hard to produce anything that is really stellar and s'Pfiff is a perfect example of that. On a positive note, the outdoor seating area is nice and the service is fast and friendly.
