It is on the small side but that only adds to the charming atmosphere. The food here is very decent - think tasty classic Viennese and Austrian specialties. I was there recently because they had a special menu with a Pumpkin Cream soup, mixed salad, and a Tirolean Gröstl which I always like a lot. (By the way they also had as a decoration the largest pumpkin I have seen in Vienna this year.) There are lots of old fotos on the wall which are interesting to look at .... but be careful as we sat at a table underneath an old Rapid Vienna team photo which I never would have done if I had noticed it before sitting down. I felt like writing "Austria Wien Rules" underneath that foto, but I resisted the temptation as I didn't want to get thrown out before devouring the authentic Gröstl. Now what are some of the negatives? Haas-Beisl certainly is a little bit too "Bieder" for any real hipster. Perhaps for some, it might be a little too smoky (I didn't think so but I'm not that vigilante about smoking like I know some people are). But to me, I think there is only one major negative - the service. This is a Beisl filled with Stammgäste (regulars) whom the wait staff all know and seem to treat pretty well but those same waiters can be pretty perfunctory and unsmiling to outsiders. If you are visiting Vienna and feel that you have somehow missed out on the "mürrisch Kellner" (grumpy waiter) treatment, dine here and there is a good chance you will experience it in live action!!

The restaurant is located in the middle of the Prater amusement park and the ambience and energy is lively and great. Staff is very friendly, and were very accommodating with English menus.

This is a very traditional-feeling Austrian restaurant which was neat to experience. They have a ton of seating both inside and outside. We opted for outside to enjoy the theme park views. I got the traditional schnitzel and it was decent. It's a very basic dish so I wasn't in love with it but it was an enjoyable meal overall. The service wasn't great but we really came for the experience.

To make a long story short the waiter that we asked to be served saw that my wife had sneakers on and declined to seat us, our complaint is as simple as that. The stupid act of one waiter turned us off completely off and in fact the waiter said they only had one table in the corner available for dinner when the entire inside was 95 per cent empty. Thus if we sat down that means they would have turned away any other guests that came in. The time was 7:30 PM. I will make certain to inform all my friends to NEVER eat here.

Our server, Gregory, made the night so unbelievably special. He was incredibly kind and helpful, taking the time to explain the dishes to us and helping us order the right amount of food for the table. His service truly made the entire experience. As for the food, just order the entire menu because everything was incredible! Every single appetizer we had somehow felt like the best thing we'd ever eaten. There was an artichoke dish in particular that was absolutely unbelievable. We had a party of five and made a reservation a few weeks in advance, which I would definitely recommend doing. The atmosphere inside is so funky and fun, but we ended up choosing to sit outside on the patio, which was such a wonderful experience. It sounds a little crazy to say that a night out at a restaurant became a core memory from an entire Europe trip, but it truly did. Great hospitality can completely make an experience and Gregory went so above and beyond for us that it turned an incredible dinner into a night we'll never forget. This is one of those restaurants we'll be telling every single person we know about!

Skopik & Lohn is featured in the Michelin guide that serves traditional Austrian food with a modern twist. Portions are gigantic and designed for share. Pricing is elevated. Check-in was prompt with the host and included a complimentary coat check. The restaurant was modern and staff were super cordial throughout the evening. Started off with the XO Beef tartare and it was tasty. The toast was fresh and the beef was tasty, topped with some creme fraiche. Portions were perfect for a couple diners. Moved on to the Wiener Schnitzel with veal and it was tasty. The veal was lightly breaded and lightly fried served with a potato salad along with a lingonberry side. Portions were gigantic and the entree could easily be shared for a couple diners. Finished off the meal with the Bienenstitch and it was tasty. This was a lighter way to finish off the meal. Again...portions were gigantic and perfect for a couple diners. It was interesting to see that the vast majority of diners were tourists...

The presentation of the food here is also very artistically done. I recently enjoyed a paprika-coconut soup here. I wish it could have been a one more ladle larger portion as the bowl did not really contain a great amount of this tasty soup. A lightly fried Wels filet (catfish) was perfectly done and served over a zucchini bean salad. Water and salt & pepper were brought to the table upon request. The only annoying thing here was being grilled by the chef/owner about taking photos in the restaurant. He certainly could have been friendlier about this. And c'mon - it's 2017 and people are taking photos in restaurants. In fact I've done so in hundreds of restaurants in Vienna and elsewhere with no problem and in actuality it has been good free publicity for the restaurant. Anyway other than feeling lectured to - Duspara is a good creative restaurant.

I got the chicken in the smaller portion and it also came with a pickled salad (cucumber and potatoes). The smaller portion still looked pretty big. I always thought it was weird that restaurants charge for tap water and it's the same price as if you get a beer or soft drink, so might as well get a beer. The alcohol levels aren't as strong as in America either. Overal the meal was really good and service was fast. We've been lucky and most places speak English.
