I think this was my best schnitzel (yes, better even than Figlmuller) in Vienna, and it was…read moreliterally the first meal I had. I was jetlagged and didn't feel like doing much, hotel restaurant was supposed to have good schnitzel - easy peasy. In other news, I need to dial down my hotel restaurant stigma at better places, especially in Europe, the restaurants tend to be entirely decent.
It was huge, but without being pounded wafer thin, it was tender, it had really nice mild veal flavor...really delicious. The breading in particular was really tender and not overwhelming, very buttery. Came with the standard kind of mixed salad and potato salad.
I see in a couple of other reviews that service was bad or rude - I didn't experience that at all, either at this meal or at breakfast (although maybe me staying at the hotel changed the service culture), it wasn't overly friendly, but certainly wasn't rude. Price here was a smidge higher than most other meals I had in Vienna, but still not out of line considering how much I enjoyed it.
