Eating at the brand new XXXL restaurant on the Mariahilferstraße might be the most surprising…read moredining experience I have had this year. It certainly is the best value meal I can almost ever remember. Here's the scoop: The famous Austrian store XXXLutz has opened up a stand-alone large restaurant on Europe's longest shopping street - Mariahilferstraße . The restaurant has two floors and several dining areas as well as a bar/counter. It is light and airy with lots of floor to ceiling windows. The service is very friendly despite the huge crowds. And for the month of December it is offering some difficult-to-believe special value meals via coupons. For example - a giant Wienerschnitzel and French Fries dinner for only 3 Euros. Why not splurge and have a leg of roasted duck with Knödeln for 5 Euros? These prices must be like 50 years ago. And the food is tasty. For dessert we were given a complimentary gingerbread heart. Of course these prices are temporary and celebrating the grand opening but they are in effect for a whole month and this restaurant is open every day of the week from morning till evening. I think XXXL Restaurant will be a very popular addition to the ever popular Mariahilferstraße and the Westbahnhof Viertel. I def will keep it in mind when I am in the area - especially after their generous opening celebration.

This is a great Interspar! It's very sunny and bright. It's also spacious with nice wide aisles,…read morethough there are a few tight spots. It's heaven if you can go there at off-peak times! On Saturdays it gets very packed and crazy. They have a huge selection including fresh fish. They have a Tschibo product corner and a toy store. The toys are definitely pricey, but when you need a quick gift it's useful. The Interspar is located in a shopping center with lots of other useful stores like Dm, a Tabak Traffik, Kik, Deichman, Ernsting's Family and a book store. There is 2 hour free parking in the garage underneath. You can also run across the street if you need Pagro or Jello shoes. This is a great shopping center for the 16th district.

I miss Vienna terribly and a big part of my missing goes to the delicious desserts in Vienna style…read more I don't know if Felber is kind of the Panera Bread here in the US or not, but it's such a great chain store to try Vienna bakeries and coffee. Shamelessly, I tried every type of cakes here during my very short stay in Vienna (oh year, I did go there everyday...) All delicious and the raspberry mousse and chestnuts cake are the must-haves. Staff were very friendly too!

Felber is one of those rare places in Vienna where they bake their own bread, right in the room…read morewhere you can have your coffee/breakfast/lunch... And it smells so good! Basically, this is like a bakery with a wide offer in fresh breads (even bio, vegan or gluten-free) and a lot of pastries (very good croissants!), but also with a café part. You can seat indoors (nice and comfortable, with blankets and stools) and outdoors for all those who likes getting some fresh air! :) You can order there your cold or warm drinks, and something to eat; or simply get take-away. They have several breakfast menus, adapted to any appetite size, with at least a warm drink and a pastry. They also make some fresh squeezed orange juice as you order it! For lunch, they have a lots of fresh-made sandwiches, snacks and salads. I warmly recommend their salads actually: they are quite generous, tasty, healthy of course, and included in the price you get the small bread (=Weckerl) of your choice!

Illy Caffe is a chain of restaurant/cafeteria. But in Vienna, it isn't a sign of bad quality, on…read morethe contrary! The food it proposes is fresh and modern, with a lot of salads, pasta dishes... and very good Wiener Schnitzel, served with chips and salad! All of those for a very decent price. Plus you have the pictures of each dish on the menu. The list of desserts is also very appetizing... It is open from 7am to 12pm during the week (and even til 1am on friday and saturday), and proposes some breakfast menus as well. The decor indoor is modern and comfortable, but sitting outside is even more agreable when the sun is shining. The only small damper is that at lunch time, the waiters might be a little overload and not always friendly... But don't let it get to you, all in all Illy Caffe is a nice place to have a good meal or a drink!

When we entered I was a little wary as to what this tiny cafe could serve. It looks like one of those many tourist trap cafeterias. But the young lady at the counter was super efficient and friendly. She had sausages on the boil in various containers under the counter. We got our order including 2 melange (coffees) in under 5 minutes and were done with breakfast in 20 mins. Such a change from all the sedately paced coffee houses around town. I do enjoy a leisurely meal, but not when every minute lingering over a meal could have been spent at a sightseeing location, staring at the imperial crowns or a Klimt. 3 breakfast plates and 2 coffees and we had the seating space to ourselves all for the kingly sum of 13.5€ !

The cafeteria here seems to be pretty popular with the locals ...I seriously have never seen such a populated ikea cafeteria area so the food must be pretty good . As far as the selection of items it is a standard ikea . What seems to be different is that the displays / interior design of the displays seem to be less impressive ( less effort in putting things together ) compared to American stores which isn't necessarily a bad thing but just my observation.
