PRO: Delicious, well-prepared food…read more PRO: Charming ambiance. CON: Everything (and trust me when I say everything) is an up-charge. You pay for tap water (and you pay for bread), both of which the staff will gladly and repeatedly offer you without mentioning that they charge €5 to fill a glass bottle from the kitchen faucet. EACH bottle. CON: Prepare to spend a long time at table. It took 90 minutes to get us from appetizers to entrees, and nearly four hours in total to get us through the entire meal from sit-down to pay-the-check. No exaggeration, there, and not a word of apology or explanation from the staff the whole while. CON: Service was delivered with surprisingly rudely (and I say that as a native Austrian), and our server turned stone cold when we asked whether we could accelerate the dessert course after 3+ hours at table by that point. Most striking: Our server's inexplicable decision to pour and drink himself a glass of wine from our bottle. I can report that he paid the price (literally) for that gaffe in our gratuity. I really did want to shine a better light on this otherwise reputable place. - - - PRO: Leckeres, gut zubereitetes Essen. PRO: Charmantes Ambiente. CON: Alles (und glauben Sie mir, wenn ich alles sage) ist ein Aufpreis. Sie zahlen für Leitungswasser (und für Brot), beides bietet Ihnen das Personal gerne und immer wieder an, ohne zu erwähnen, dass das Befüllen einer Glasflasche aus dem Küchenhahn 5 € kostet. JEDE Flasche. CON: Bereiten Sie sich darauf vor, lange Zeit am Tisch zu verbringen. Wir brauchten 90 Minuten, um von der Vorspeise bis zum Hauptgericht zu kommen, und insgesamt fast vier Stunden, um die gesamte Mahlzeit vom Tisch bis zur Bezahlung des Schecks zuzubereiten. Keine Übertreibung, und die ganze Zeit über gab es vom Personal kein Wort der Entschuldigung oder Erklärung. Nachteil: Der Service war überraschend unhöflich (und das sage ich als gebürtiger Österreicher), und unser Kellner wurde eiskalt, als wir fragten, ob wir den Dessertgang nach mehr als drei Stunden am Tisch zu diesem Zeitpunkt beschleunigen könnten. Am auffälligsten: Die unerklärliche Entscheidung unseres Kellners, sich selbst ein Glas Wein aus unserer Flasche einzuschenken und zu trinken. Ich kann berichten, dass er den Preis (im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes) für diesen Fauxpas mit unserem Trinkgeld bezahlt hat. Ich wollte diesen ansonsten seriösen Ort wirklich in ein besseres Licht rücken.

Very delicious food and a cool rustic ambience…read more The portions are small but not tiny so you will have enough to eat. The prices are fair as well. The waitstaff was nice but nothing to special. Although they are pretty genius at selling you stuff you don't really want and then charge you for it. They give you a bottle of water at the beginning but you'd have to pay if you drink it. They ask you if you want some bread and housemade spread as a starter and then charge you. It's just not complementary even if it sounds like it is.

We shared a large salad (really good with a mixture of different veggies: beats, asparagus, cucumber, tomato, rocket, lettuce, corn, onion, radish, hearts of palm, and more, covered with a light dressing), "Our Famous Wok" with chicken (sweet chili, hoisin, and Thai curry sauces, lots of veggies, and chicken), and Thai Coconut Soup (Tom Kha Gai, with chunks of chicken and herbs/veggie). All of the dishes were delicious and well prepared. The waitress and waiter both spoke English well and were genuinely nice, and service was very prompt. Very good value for the money.

This is a great spot for drinks in Zell am See. It has two separate areas that are quite different…read morefrom each other. Outside, they have a fairly small terrace that is ideal for a few après-ski drinks. Like many of the other après-ski terraces, they have some heaters to make sitting outside more enjoyable on a chilly day. They also have the pretty standard drinks selection including beer, wine, several types of schnapps and warm wine. Service is at the bar and was quite friendly and efficient. Downstairs, they have an indoor bar. This is a good spot for drinks later in the evening or après-ski on a day with weather that isn't quite nice enough for the outdoor terrace. A final plus for this establishment is the location. It is well located both for après-ski and after dinner drinks as it is both centrally located in the town and close to the bottom of the trail that you take to get back to Zell am See. I would definitely come back if I go to Zell am See again.
