We were fortunate to visit this heuriger with my cousin and her family who are from Austria so fluent German speakers in our midst. This heuriger was so accessible to the central parts of Vienna--it was only one transfer us via tram and a short 30 minute ride and a ten minute walk from the stop. I love the history attached with the winery--Beethoven supposedly was living here when he wrote his 9th symphony. The food was fantastic particularly the side dishes--roasted potatoes, sauerkraut like I haven't had before, pickled peppers with cream cheese, roasted vegetables. The bread as in Austria was wonderful as well. The meats were good as well and particularly liked the schnitzel. The wine was really good, we were a bit worried with it being young wine but enjoyed it especially with soda water. Our 17 year old enjoyed being legal in Austria and partook of it a bit too generously :). The interior was clean and comfortable with its traditional wooden tables and benches. Dessert was wonderful too with a chocolate molten cake and cream strudel..,. if we lived there could imagine coming here for regular family meals... wish they had such lovely welcoming spots where we live! read more

Must visit in Vienna! Good food and the ambiance was old school and fun! I recommend the Schnitzel. Also the Mayer Red and white are yummy, we ordered a couple carafes. read more

This was such a great dining experience. The food and the atmosphere were amazing. The restaurant was filled in the middle of the week but the service was still prompt and friendly. Menus were available in German and in English and I really appreciated the little bit of history that was included there. Such a great place and I highly recommend it! read more

Mayer am Pfarrplatz - Roasted potatoes, a veal and cheese sausage that was delicious, and some amazing pork. - Wineries Near Me - Vienna, 9

I wanted to show a friend who was visiting from the US a true Viennese experience. And this place was a good choice. I had to look for a Heuriger that was open on Sundays for a really long time. I am thankful that I found this place. It had a nice courtyard and a very Viennese ambience. The wine was great! We shared a bottle of Riesling and they gave us as much tap water as we wanted. Heuriger are always though for me because I don't eat meat. So my choices were limited but what they had was fresh. The buffet seemed a bit expensive though. The waiter and waitress we had were very friendly. The people preparing the Food at the Heuriger-Buffet had difficulties cracking a smile. And I wish they would wear plastic gloves when they prepare the food. And because the courtyard is so small it would be nice if it was non-smoking. read more

Mayer am Pfarrplatz - Geeister Kaiserschmarrn - Wineries Near Me - Vienna, 9

We came to this place because it is one of the better known Heurigers in Vienna and easily reachable by public transit. We were there on a Saturday evening, and it was less than 1/5 full. I ordered the buffet, and wish that I'd ordered from the menu - no suckling pig, huge language barrier, less-than-helpful servers. This was a Rick Steve's recommendation - and I think if we toured the way he does (with a local interpreter) we would have liked it better too. I will say that it was reasonably priced, and the wine was very good. read more

Loved everything about this place.. as you walk up towards it you just know it is going to be good. charming, great wine, and a beautiful spread of Austrian dishes. So very glad we stumbled upon it. Danke!! :) read more

Mayer am Pfarrplatz is a Heuriger located in the suburbs of Vienna with a beautiful garden/outdoor setting. When we came for dinner, Mayer happened to be doing a "mushroom-themed" week, where they served a number of dishes centered on mushrooms. To drink, we ordered a glass of the house-made white wine (a must-try) and a glass of Mayer's Grüner Veltliner (a classic white wine of Austria with strong herbal/grass notes and refreshing acidity). To eat, we had the roasted pork medallions served over a creamy mushroom risotto. While the risotto didn't really stand out to me, the pork was cooked to medium and was savory/juicy on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside. In addition, we had a dish of bread dumpling (Semmelknödel) with a creamy mushroom sauce. While I found the texture of the bread dumpling to be intriguing (it was like a very dense ball of dough/bread), I found it rather flavorless (and the mushroom sauce wasn't all that memorable either). But my one big complaint about this Heuriger is that we had to wait about 40 minutes to receive our food after placing our order, which seemed a little excessive to me. read more

This place was okay. I know the atmosphere would be better in the summer because you can sit outside and enjoy the vineyard, but the inside had nice atmosphere too. We made a reservation, though it appeared as though we probably didn't need one...which surprised us because it seemed like everywhere else a reservation is needed in Vienna! The staff was nice and gave us suggestions on what to eat and drink. I do feel like suggestions were a bit catered to being a tourist, but maybe I'm wrong. We ordered a spritz wine, but that didn't end up being that good. I think we just should've ordered their own wine. For food, we had wiener schnitzel and a sirloin with mustard, fried. The food was okay, but very rich and filling. I think I'd like to try a different vineyard, maybe one that is only open in the summer months. read more

This was our favorite place when we lived in Vienna, very nice courtyard, decent food and nice wine. We visited this place frequently and brought friend. Our very fond memories of this place destroyed the latest experience we visited there. Food is still decent and the place is great. We tried to purchase a bottle of wine, but we were told if we bought three bottles of the same wine, it will be 5 euro discount AND it will come with a wooden box. So I decided to go for this option. When we pay, a different lady, Miriam, if I remember correctly, she is Manager, told me that the box would not come. I explained the reason why I bought the three was a discount and a box. She was extremely rude and identify herself as OWNER (she is not OWNER, and just Manager and said extremely rudely.. "if you do not want to buy, YOU ARE OUT!" . I was very surprised by her attitude. I would not return this place as long as she is there..... read more

I was looking forward to trying a heuriger wine garden restaurant. From the outside, it looked very promising. We arrived on a Friday afternoon around 5pm. Unfortunately, we did not have a reservation. We were told we could sit, but must leave by 7pm. This would not be a problem, but the 2 men in charge were not the least bit friendly. We expected a certain experience, atmosphere, that we just didn't get. It certainly was not worth the trip from town. You can get at least as good wine & food, if not better, at many of the restaurants in the inner stadt., with a smile. read more

I enjoyed very much this place that Historically and aesthetically has great charm. It is a winery, a tavern and this is the reason why you go there. we had very good huerigen, a young wine, which was served with several brettljause, plates of cold food such as cheese, spreads, bread, and charcuterie, served on a wooden board. As it was goose time, And Saint Martin was no so far away I did not miss it....It was succulent, cooked in the oven with red cabbage and potatos dupplings. the service was average, but you do not expect more. they also had live traditional music. read more
