I'll have to leave to you because not something I enjoy the fish was wonderful. Served with potatoes. Looked like it was broiled with some garlic and herbs on top. Really delicious.

So we went elsewhere. We went back the next night at an off-hour and while the food was fine, I would have been highly disappointed had we waited in line for 30 minutes, let alone 2 or more hours. This restaurant has a prime location and a strong online reputation. And perhaps our experience was impacted by the fact that we went at an off-hour. Still, there are much better options, with equal character, available across the city. Consider branching out -- and check my other Salzburg reviews for other alternatives.

We came in around 5pm for an early dinner before our train back to Munich and was able to grab a table for 4. We got incredibly lucky because the restaurant really filled up and by the time we left, there was a long line down the block. Of course we had to have their Original Wiener Schnitzel, which was so crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. We also had a Salzburger Nockerl, which is a classic Austrian soufflé dessert that is considered a culinary symbol of Salzburg. You do have to order this about 20 minutes in advance, so we ordered it when we made our entree orders. This was really good and honestly, more than enough for our group of 4. I also highly recommend their house beer, which was one of the best beers I had during our 10 day trip.

My husband who loves venison said their venison was one of the best venison dishes he's ever had. Wine and drinks are inexpensive. Its only downside, though it is a big one for me, is that smoking is allowed inside. The high ceilings help and you don't get smoke in your face. There was a group of 8-10 ppl nearby, and 3 of them were lighting up. I haven't been in a country where smoking is still allowed inside for over 10 years, so it was hard to ignore. But again I didn't smell it that much, and everything else was great.

If you want a cup of coffee/tea then it's worth it to sit outside to enjoy the view. Otherwise this place is way over priced and the service was not pleasant. If you want coffee, order at the bar and pay. Stand there and wait for your drinks. If you want to dine in, go seat yourself. There are more tables upstairs. The same person taking coffee orders at the bar was the same person that took our orders so you can imagine the wait once we were seated. He was the same person that brought out our food. In the end, if you pay cash, then you'll have to pay at the bar because they don't carry change. Or you can pay by credit card on the spot. The menu selection was limited. Austria is all about the schnitzel so we got that with a side of potato salad and cup of cafe melange. The food was okay and knowing that you could get more options for much lower price at the village was killing me.
