Staying in Villach for 2 nights, we tried to come here on the 1st night but arrived to town too…read morelate due to a missed flight. The restaurant was closed when we stopped by around 10 p.m. on a Thurs night. I don't know why this surprised me since I thought it would be open later during the summer. We came back on Friday night and it was packed. It was a little confusing to figure out how we get seated....did we ask to be seated or just sit down when a table opened up? It seemed to be the 2nd option but is awkward when multiple groups are standing and waiting. Once we were seated (outside), I ordered the schnitzel with potatoes. As pics show, the portion is large so I couldn't eat all of it. It was good though. Service was a little odd and unfriendly but our food came out promptly. The menu had English subsections which was helpful. The overall vibe of the place was nice and I enjoyed the experience.

Since it is allowed to smoke in here, u better make peace with that. We were just happy that on this weekday evening not many tables were already taken. The waiter/owner quickly recommended us 2 pale ales, which were of a nice and rich hopp smell, just what I needed after a beer crafting workshop Yelp event in the famous Eiswerk brewery in Munich last week. He continued to pay a lot of attention to us, but I cannot say if this would have been the case with a more crowded situation. Music was very blues oriented and a good fit to a rather low lightened odd decorated small little bar. After the second IPA, we all agreed that this is a little treasure in Villach, where according to my local colleagues it is considered a sensation if you can order sth different that the local Villacher beer. This was already my second time, and considered now as a linked event for my business trips to Villach.

It was a beautiful night so we looked forward to sitting outside and having some cocktails. Drinks were very affordable (at least by Philadelphia, US standards) and service was friendly/prompt. There were even some live musicians singing a celebratory song which was a lot of fun. We talked to some of the locals and got some good tips about places to see. This was a great little spot in Villach.
