    So i did a little wiki'ing before I sat down for this review and i can't help but laugh at the experience. This was the FIRST meal we had in Austria. After checking in on Saturday around noon, we were starving. By the time we got to Karlsplatz station, I was willing to eat anything. Since we didn't really know anything nor the area, we found the first restaurant sign that seemed okay. Weinerwald, meaning Vienna Woods, or what I would have translated to Wiener World or Vienna World, seemed like a proper place to eat. As soon as we walked in, my boyfriend said, "man, this place looks like Denny's - I don't think we should eat here." At that moment, I was too hungry to care. My argument was, "look, if someone came to the US and they never tried Denny's or iHOP, they wouldn't really get a sense of the real american culture. So maybe we need to get a real sense of the Viennese culture." In some ways, I was neither wrong nor right.... Apparently, Wienerwald used to be a fast food chain that started in Munich, then made a spinoff casual dining restaurant in Austria, and then bankrupted because everyone thought they sold, well, weiners...their specialty is supposed to be CHICKEN, but we didnt order that, of course not. The menu had all sorts of Classic Viennese cuisine, and not knowing the place was known for chicken, we ordered "Viennese Classics". We ordered a steak, smothered with gravy, and a Viennese minced veal sausage like dish. Neither of which I now know the name. So no, we didn't order the chicken, and was confused as to why there were roosters on the door (see pic). Each dish was approximate 12EUR. Anyway, the food was no good. It was salty but bland in flavour. My boyfriend to this day, still grumbles about having had to eat there. So I think unless you're a local and want to eat some fast food chicken, you might want to avoid this place.

    Went last night. There was a notice on the door in German. Not sure why they were closed - for renovations, perhaps.

    There I was, fridge empty again... sick of everything... but ya gotta eat! I Google "What's for…read morelunch" and come up with sub shop... suddenly I am craving subway. You see, the interesting thing about chains, esp one that has more stores than McD's (2010, 1,000 more, yes I am serious), is that they are consistent. You will, or rather should get the same experience in all Subway locations. So, here is my experience here vs. back home in the States. I think the breads are the same, aside from that fact that they seemed a bit more limp I didn't notice much difference. Flavor is on point, and the more rye breads look and taste like it. Meats at this location (particularly Chicken Teriyaki) seemed to be of slightly higher quality. Also, since they don't use little paper trays to add meat, but spoons, you get a little more! As for cheese, you can definitely get more types of cheese at an American location. Here they have two types, one is a shredded cheddar, and the other... well when I asked the clerk what kind of cheese it is, he answered "cheese". There are for sure fewer vegetable offerings here, I can say banana peppers and spinach were missing, but can't put my finger on what else. I will say that an advantage of this is that when it comes to vegetables, for me anyway, it is easier to say "everything", rather than have to list all the things I want. I do like that they have the same selection of dressings as U.S. locations, as from my 4 months in Austria, I get the impression that dressings are not as much a thing in this country as they are in the States. I deducted a star for more limited cheese and vegetable offerings. While it is nice that the meats seem to be of slightly higher quality, it does not over-rule the negatives.

    Basically it is shot that this is the only one left in Vienna and it is small and not nice at all…read more For a branch in the chain of Subway it is a HUGE let down for the entire company as it is negleted for a long time now. However as there is no other option for Subway in Vienna it will have to do. But the food and so on is very much like in all other subways i have been in. I wish they will renovate it one day SOON. My Personal points system out of 10, standard for Vienna is 5. Location: 7 Atmosphere: 2 Decor: 2 Size: 2 Non Smoking Area: YES all non smoking Service(*1): 5 *1=(Standard in Vienna is 5 on my scale) this is based on that you get serviced fast but you have to work hard to pay at the end)
