We selected this restaurant for our first evening meal in Vienna, a city we'd not previously visited. The decor has character, the staff attentive and friendly, and the food and beer to be commended.

I like a place where you know the locals eat as well as the tourists. The food is generally good as are the prices. And when you travel you want to immerse yourself with locals, else you may as well stay at home. Great Austrian cuisine. My schnitzel was huge and delicious and my wife's boiled beef was also a...

Meal was really good, schnitzel was excellent and pretty big, service was quick and attentive. Very nice place to eat. Authenticly designed indoors (way too much to my taste) but has an outdoor option as well - street isn't crowdy so it'll be a pretty comfortoble. Recommend.

Restaurant Purstner was recommended by our hotel for good Austrian food and atmosphere. Waiters in lederhosen and decor in old wood and animal heads. The staff was very friendly. We made a reservation in the afternoon and were welcomed as regular customers in the evening. Customers were a mix of Austrian/German and Americans. We both ordered Wiener schnitzel which was...

A quirky decor and the Austrian garb of the waiters and to the ambience . The food is good and not expensive and the menu interesting . Local house wine was reasonably priced

Second best restaurant I've seen so far in Vienna - that would be the best description of this place. Once inside I've been welcomed by a waiter thematically dressed to blend into the interior of the restaurant, which was decorared as a hunter hut somewhere deep in the woods. Animal heads, birds and a lot of other hunting theme related... More

A very pleasant restaurant with genuine warmth of service and atmosphere:-we found irt difficult to fault. Yes the cuisine is straightforward but that is what you expect in Austria. What you get here is well prepared food,served in a friendly fashion and a welcoming atmosphere-what is fairer than that?

Some people like this place. The night we went is was packed. it has every tourist gimmick under the sun.It is dark , in a cellar and you can just imagine the locals swilling back the beer and singing rousing songs Only i would guess very few locals actually come and eat here. It is too expensive. And although local... More
