In fact, I had the same few times during my stay. ;) Also enjoyed salad and fruit varieties/options which change everyday. Dinner: I don't normally dine at the hotel restaurant (nothing against it, just trying to enjoy local restaurants), however, the Bank Brasseries was recommended by a couple of people particularly on their beef tartare and Wiener schnitzel. I'm glad that I did - those two dishes are definitely highly recommended. Service: Great during both breakfast and dinner. The server during dinner (Andrew, I think) was professional and great in providing excellent suggestions.

Beef tartare on the other hand was absolutely full of flavor. The bread served with the tartare was also a great accompaniment! Dessert was spectacular we had the apple strudel! This is a great place to sit, relax, and get lost in the beauty of The Bank!

As part of a birthday weekend getaway, my husband treated me (us) to a birthday dinner at the…read moreMichelin-starred Le Ciel. I felt like an Austrian princess the entire time, with staff on hand to catch a napkin before it fell to the floor and live piano music for the duration of our meal. Our meal started with a selection of freshly baked bread, two types of butter, and amuse bouche. Appetizers were steamed broccoli with bulgar/ smoked eel greaves/ etc and the lobster with pickled veal tongue in a lobster bisque and crispy rice with marinated palm hearts. Both were exquisite, especially the lobster. I savored every bite, especially knowing that it would be a rare find back in my new home of Berlin. For our main courses, I had the Pike Perch with asparagus/ citrus lemon/ saffron and my husband had the Arctic Char. For dessert, we opted for both the Milk and Honey. Milk was burnt milk ice cream with cardamom, dried barberry, Beetroot granule, peanut cream, roasted milk, Amaranth cress and crispy oat. Honey was cookies with Mara de Bois strawberries, dehydrated chocolate mousse, rose jelly, honey cream, and fried batter pearls. Both were, for lack of a better word, also exquisite. On top of all this food, the chef also sent out a couple of additional dessert bites, which went great with our decaf coffee. If you have a special occasion to celebrate, or if you just want to "treat yo self," Le Ciel is a great place for it. To date, this was one of the best birthday dinners I've had.

I had super high expectations for this place considering that it was a Michelin Star(s) restaurant…read more I'm glad I took the recommendation to dine at lunch for their Lunch special (3 course meal with wine for 48 euros), as it wouldn't break your wallet. The service was impeccable and the meal started on a highlight. The aperitif was delicious and for my starter I had the onion soup which was the best onion soup I've ever had! The bread and butter they provide was ordinary. For my main dish I ordered the pasta with cabbage. The description of this dish sounded plain but I was looking forward to how they would execute it. Eh....pasta was el dente but the pasta tasted sweet, like a desert. Not my thing. We ended with a dessert, which was an orange creme brûlée. Good but nothing exceptional. The wine they gave you was ordinary, no wonder bottomless. I was disappointed, expected much more in terms of flavor.

The bartender and server were attentive, and happy to offer options. They also provided me several amazing beers to go, as I was about to hop on the train. I got the cheese stuffed sausage for food and it was really tasty, but felt a little strange just served with a side salad and some sliced bread and mustard. Then again, I'm not Austrian! Ultimately, really excellent dining experience highlighted by the amazing service and tasty beers.

Yelp Review 2023 # 37:…read more My first time here. I reserved a table but it turns out, I didn't have to reserve a table for 10:30am. But I didn't want to risk it. I arrived at 10:30am but the doors were locked and no signs of life. So, I walked around - it's a touristy shopping area. I came back close to 11am and got seated immediately. I was the first person there. I had my tastebuds set to have currywurst since I won't be going to Germany on this trip. Austria is Germany's neighbor so, why not? The lovely server/ bartender gave me the breakfast menu which of course didn't have currywurst. I politely asked her if it would be possible to have currywurst. She nicely told me she would ask the kitchen if they can make it happen. As I waited for an answer, I was looking at the breakfast menu for a plan B but I simply wasn't feeling breakfast food. She came back with great news! They can start the fryer for the fries but it would take a while which was fine. At least, I was in a warm place in the middle of winter! My currywurst hit the spot! It was hot, had the right flavors, and the fries were fresh, hot and crispy. If beer is your jam, this is the place to be. This is a bar after all!
