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.

There are also three…read morefloors of seats inside when it's colder (or wetter) with a real (but modern) beer-hall atmosphere. Most of the dishes are traditional Austrian: schnitzel, veal, etc. They have lots of great beers, of course, but also a good list of interesting wines. It's down amongst the backstreets and so not filled with tourists. Still, it can get very busy, and they didn't seem to have quite enough staff on so service took a while. Mains were in the EUR17ish range, but tasty.

So, it was our first night in Vienna and we stumbled upon this hidden gem. I honestly can't believe…read morethat it has only been reviewed a handful of times. Anyway, here is my review... The seating is indoor (fairly small - but enough room to not feel cramped) or outdoors. Outdoor seating was plentiful, but like most people in Vienna, the locals all seem to smoke. So we opted for indoors. Our waitress was kickass. Right off the bat she was welcoming and on it. We ordered Gruner Vertliner wine, which arrived promptly and a carafe of water... which was nice touch. Our waitress recommended the "fried chicken" (which was similar to schnitzel, but with chicken - and only better) and the gnocchi with smashed peas and chorizo. Both were fire. We also ordered the no bake chocolate cake and it was really good. The food was amazing and the service was excellent. We may be going back tomorrow.

Once you first enter the main doors of this restaurant, you will walk down a flight of stairs which leads you into a larger dining area. I was told a lot of people have tripped on this staircase before because its steps are uneven, so be careful! The decor has so much history and class. I spent quite a bit of time looking at the many displays exhibited around the dining tables. Service was excellent. Our server asked us to wear their signature feather hats! It was fun taking pictures with them! VEGGIE SOUP (3/5) It was a clear soup with lots of veggie flavour. I would've preferred it if they toned down the salt. PORK SCHNITZEL (5/5) Omg, this was delicious! The pork schnitzel had the right thickness to it - not too much flour and not too much meat. This dish also came with potatoes and salad on the side. Loveddd this! APPLE PIE (5/5) One of the best apple pies I've ever had. It's hard to balance out the soury and sweet flavours from the pie and the apple. This dessert had it done right. It came sizzling hot, which was another plus. I'd recommend this restaurant to my friends who plan on visiting Vienna :)

Located at The Prater amusument park, the Schweizerhaus is ENORMOUS! There is much more outdoor seating than in, and outdoor seating is actually easier to get! On our first visit, hubs had the Schweinhaxe (pork knuckle), a salad and 2 beers. I had the Schnitzel, Spargelsuppe (asparagus soup), and a coke. Hubs enjoyed his pork, and I enjoyed my Schnitzel, but the soup was outstanding! I had never had asparagus soup, and as it is a beloved springtime dish in the Germanic countries, I wanted desperately to try it. It was so creamy and the asparagus was cooked to such a tenderness, I almost wanted to get another bowl! On our second visit, we both got the Znaimer Gulasch, 2 beers, 1 coke, and a Powidltascherln. Again, everything was decent, but I preferred our first night's meal better. Each night was well under 100 Euros for the two of us, so it was definitely affordable. If I am ever lucky enough to be back in Vienna, I would absolutely come back here for a meal! 44/2025

Cool atmosphere but disappointed by the food…read more I liked that it felt very old school... Lots of regulars and experienced wait staff. It was clean and efficient. My beer was good. On the negative side, I have had better wiener schnitzel in Ohio. It was below mid tier. No crisp, just vaguely mushy. Fries were good. For an amusement park it's good. For Vienna it's not good. So overall an average rating.

The restaurant ambiance was like a pub but at the same time very calm (maybe due to the time we went at ). Also, it's greatly decorated and you might lose phone service when we go inside because we did, which is ok.
