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.

Worth a go if you're looking for a solid Viennese meal. We were able to walk in to get a high table…read moretop table but after us there was only bar seating for walk in's. They may seem half empty at times but that's because most tables are reserved. The soup with fried pancakes was delicious. Flavorful soothing broth and the cancels had good textual chewz The tafelspitz was overall tasty. 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

We are in this area once a year during the summer months and always look forward to eating here…read more No matter whether you go with or without children, the food is excellent, the service impeccable, the terrace serene. Nondescript from the outside, the interior seems to have seen better days but what is truly beautiful is the enclosed terrace with its little pond, the different sections, the plants and flowers. The food is wonderful, definitely bordering on fine dining. If you happen to be there for the famed "Candle Light Dinner" (a seven course meal consisting of seasonal delicacies) you will think you've gone to culinary heaven. Not to be missed and definitely the best restaurant in a wide radius.

The wienerschnitzel was very dark, a minute more and it would have been burnt. The venison ragout was so dry. And the goulash had hardly any tomato or paprika flavor. We sat outside and were swarmed by bees. Overall, one of our worst meals in lower Austria.

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!

The chicken Schnitzel was prepared perfectly! It wasn't oily at all and the chicken was so tender! It was so delightful, because "honestly, I haven't had a good piece of chicken like this in a long time! I loved where it's also located- nestled in a cute alley way'. The decor is also the traditional carved wood. I really love the traditional ambiance you really felt like you're experiencing the culture.

Hey -- late lunch or early dinner works for me! The place is always full, but once you're seated, the service is quick and professional.
