Golden Lamb shawarma
Mara A.

I was getting a little tired of the countless meat-rich meals in Vienna when I discovered this hidden gem just right around the corner from St. Stephen's Cathedral! Delicious, perfectly seasoned food, great vibes and friendly staff. Highly recommended for anyone looking to take a break from the local cuisine while not venturing far from the sights.

This was my first visit to this location which is a couple blocks from the cathedral in Vienna. While it is close to the tourist area it is a little bit off the beaten path. It appeared to be a solid mix of locals and a few tourists thrown in. This is probably the first hipster joint I located in Vienna. We just happen to be walking by and it looked pretty cool so I stopped in. There are only a few tables in there and it's not very big, there are another four or five tables outside. I thought it was cool but they have this giant farmhouse table that seats probably 18 or 20 persons and people can sit there with other people they don't know. This is a seat yourself kind of place. You order at the counter which is the bar and they are doing some of the cooking back there too. It is kind of loud in there and they're playing music on top of that in a very eclectic variety but interestingly the Music was mostly American. When you place your order at the bar, you grab your drinks out of the cooler across from the bar unless it's something that the girl has to make for you. Menu is quite small. We had a baked sweet potato which is a very basic baked products, there was nothing special about it, the skin was a little bit crispy around the edges which made it nice. We also had this thing they call a smash potato which is essentially another big potato between two sheets of waxed paper that they literally smashed and then spoon some sour cream with chives on top. That was pretty tasty but nothing special. Everything that we ordered was tasty. The place is somewhat expensive for what you get particularly the sodas but that is how they do it in Europe. The Decor is interesting with a mix of random junk and large piles of fresh vegetables lying about. They have this open window which doubles as a sauce buffet which has some various sauces including this red sauce that appears to be plain tomatoes puréed in a blender and poured into the dish. The four stars is more for the atmosphere than it is for the food. The food was adequate but nothing special, the decor was interesting and different then anything around that area. It's also funny when you go in there and you get the typical bartender/waiter/cook Eyeball roll at you because they are ever so hip and cool to be working there and you are not lol. It was cool to visit once but I don't think I would come back.

Great location and easy to find. Stopped in for lunch and had the smashed baked potato and minute steak. The potato was absolutely delicious. The minute steak was cooked as ordered and was very tasty. The pita did tend to fall apart towards the end. Overall positive experience.

Lamb pita

I'd rate this a 3.5 stars - I probably didn't have the best experience since we came here pretty late after not finding enough food at the Christmas markets, so they were out of half the menu which was disappointing. I'd want to come back here again to try the other things they were out of if I came back to Vienna. The seating and ordering is a bit of a mess - there are not that many tables and the place is pretty crowded. Come with 2-3 people in your group and not with more than 6+ people, otherwise you're not going to find many places to eat. There are mostly tables of 2 scattered about, with one long communal table in the middle. If you come during peak times, you'll have to wait for a table - there didn't seem to be a queue, you kind of just have to hover and wait, and it's first come first serve. You order at the front and then go into the back to get your table and wait there and hope that you hear them call your name when the food is ready. I wish they would just give you a number and have it shown somewhere or have someone run the food out. Most of the menu consists of pitas with different fillings - since we came for a late dinner, half the menu was sold out which was disappointing. I asked the cashier what she recommended out of the things that weere left and she was a bit rude and seemed exasperated with my question and said, "I dont know, why does everyone ask me that. What things do you like?" Maybe she was having a bad day, but I feel like if you work there, you should be able to give helpful recommendations and not make me feel like my valid question was something obvious and stupid. Without any help from her, I ended up getting the steak and eggs pita, the lamb patties pita, and then a head of roasted cauliflower. The steak and eggs pita was terrible - I wouldn't order this. The steak was overcooked and rubbery and I couldn't chew it too well. The lamb pita was great - I don't normally like lamb, but this was delicious. The pita bread is also fresh, fluffy, and great. The head of cauliflower is a bit expensive at 8€, but it's delicious nonetheless. It's roasted and comes as a whole head, and you kind of just attack it with a fork and knife. This can be easily shared between 2-4 people if you don't all mind eating the cauliflower straight. Overall, my experience here was a bit mixed - the seating and calling out orders was a bit of a cluster; I didn't find the service to be particularly good. I'm sure the sold-out flavors of the pita are better than what I ordered, but I did like the lamb pita and the texture of the pita bread. All in all, I'd give it another chance on a return trip to Vienna. It's a good place to come if you want a break from Austrian food and it's centrally located in a very touristy area, but I wouldn't really come out of my way to eat here.

A very interesting food spot worth checking out. It's very casual and perfect for a quick bite. The restaurant is rather small but many tables are suited for groups so it is not unusual to find yourself sharing a table with strangers. The must-try items on the menu are their pitas. I recommend the chicken pita but if you're a fan of lamb then go for that one. Coming to Miznon, one must also order the grilled cauliflower. Their cauliflower is served as a whole head with the stem and everything and only lightly seasoned, nothing else. It's simple but absolutely delicious. Remember to grab some of the sauces at the front, which can be added to both the pitas as well as the cauliflower. The staff is very friendly as well and there's just a great atmosphere. It's just a very fun and chill dining experience. So if you haven't been (especially if you're a local Viennese foodie looking to try something special) definitely check this place out.

If you are in city center and you love Orient food- definitely go there. Nice and friendly Israeli fellows serve Tel Aviv street food. Atmosphere is super friendly, all stuff is smiling, sometimes dancing and singing.

Cauliflower and chicken pita

Came here to get some lunch, and was lucky enough to get a small table close to the bar. We had already checked out the menu and wanted to try the pitas and the cauliflower. The restaurant is quite small and most of the tables are suited for smaller groups. It is also possible to sit at the bar if you don't mind the people working there screaming out the names and of the people whos food is done. We thought it was a bit amusing listening to them, but as you might imagine it is a noisy place. We got one big pita, two smaller ones and a cauliflower. It all tasted nice, but it wasn't amazing. Also I thought it was quite pricey considering what you get. I would definitely not pay 10€ for a cauliflower with some salt on it.

Sit at the bar and you won't miss out on their celebratory shots on the House! The staff are funny, welcoming and delightful. Felt like a family and they were welcoming us into their home. Food was fresh and delicious as I would expect from most Israeli places, but some of their dishes also make them also unique. I asked what they recommend and was pleased with the order. Tried both ciders and they were on point too. When I go to Israel, I will def check out their other spots. So cool that they have this one in Vienna!!!

Baked, carmelized cauliflower. Simple. Awesomely delicious.

Genuine Israeli street food, right around the corner from Mozart's Domgasse apartment. Try the head of cauliflower or a spicy Intimate Meat Moment. Great, casual, fast food. In the evenings, it gets crazy and fun!

We made a reservation here about a month in advance, and I am so glad we did! This place was packed…read morewhen we arrived, as expected since it is one of the most well-known schnitzel spots in Vienna. I was worried this place was over-hyped and more of a place you have to "check off the list" than somewhere you want to eat because of the food. If you have any doubts like I did, forget about them because this was actually the best schnitzel we had on our trip! Their potato salad and tomato salads, also amazing! I love that they had option for their schnitzel - the chicken and original were our favorites! Definitely check this spot out when in Vienna - you won't be disappointed!

This is probably one of the most popular schnitzel restaurants in all of Vienna. Do not come…read morewithout a reservation unless you're prepared to stand outside for quite some time. I had a reservation at 11:30am and there was already an insane line just to get in. Then once they opened the doors other groups of people completely ignore the line outside and just start rushing in. They're in absolutely no rush to seat you so don't have any hope that they'll let you in early. Once you're seated the service is pretty fast. The schnitzel is quite large and good for sharing. I had the original schnitzel with pork. It was thin and crispy but under seasoned in my opinion. The potato salad was the star for me I could have had one all to myself. It was creamy, a little sweet, and tangy. I also tried the soup with clear beef broth and sliced pancakes. Nothing memorable but a nice clean soup if you're in the mood.

There she is. We found her. Why are you out and about, possibly intoxicated, in a European city…read morewandering aimlessly in the cold? You're looking for a rotating mountain of meat like an oasis in the desert so that you can get a doner wrap, sandwich, or box. I have good news! I've found where you should be, and it's Berliner Doner. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? There is seemingly always a line a Berliner Doner, and that was the case even on a windy and intermittently rainy Sunday evening when there were seemingly no other people in the entire city of Vienna. Fortunately, the line at Berliner moves real quick, and even ten deep you'll have your food within twenty minutes tops. Star. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? I genuinely cannot get over the price points at Berliner. My standard chicken doner sandwich was, wait for it, €3,50. That's it. That's all. That's the tweet. I obviously should have gone double meat for one euro more, but in summary is the best deal in town full stop. Star. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? And just like that it all came together. The fresh pita, the flavorful chicken, the fantastic peripherals with red and white sauces that could easily rival any high quality stand in London or New York or Los Angeles. This was marvelous and there was no weak link. Period. Two Stars. Star 5: Would you be excited to go back? Every damn night if I could. Star.

Um, yum! Cheap,…read morecheerful, delicious. We ordered the lamb sandwich döner. Have never had one in Austria, but heard it was great. And yes, it's delicious. Yummy fresh salads, delicious sauces, shavings of lamb on top, washed down with a couple Gösser beers - perfect post drinking fare. Under €20 - awesome value. Way better than doner kebabs in Australia! There's some outdoor seating. Ambiance is simple, quick, outdoor takeaway. Nothing fancy. Would I take a date here? Probably not. Would I make it a required stop after a big night drinking? Hell yes. I ordered in German, the guy didn't switch to English. So not sure if they speak any English here. Recommend!

I guess if it's good enough for Ed Sheeran…read more.. The line was rather lengthy when I went here (at least 30 minutes) and I shared a table with a couple of middle-aged Italian ladies. I really like the older decor here and which made it feel more authentic. I went for the gordon bleu, which was schnitzel stuffed with cheese and ham. The fried offering was rather thin, with thin layers of cheese, ham, and pork. Each layer was pretty flavorful and did not overpower each other. The schnitzel wasn't greasy either. The mixed salad had a nice combination of tangy cucumber and potato salad. Service was standard for the area and while it wasn't warm, it was efficient.

However, my personal favorite restaurant for authentic Austrian cuisine is Schitzelwirt! They have an exceptional Biergarten in the front of the restaurant or inside dining if you want a more romantic setting. I recommend enjoying their traditional Wiener Schnitzel with Herb Potatoes. Aperol Spritz & local Sturm Wine pairs nicely with this meal. The service was excellent! They are able to speak English but restaurants are the best place to try using your Deutsch and the staff will be very pleased and create laughs around the table. Also, this restaurant isn't very close to an U-Bahn station so I recommend using a taxi or Uber to arrive and continue your night.
