I had a good, authentic Austrian dinner here with beef goulash, spinach ravioli, and their…read moresignature "Affensteak" (a pork chop with cheese and vegetables that has been on their menu since 1989). I liked the spinach ravioli the best, with lots of spinach and cheese stuffed into fresh pasta sheets. The beef goulash was served in a basic tomato sauce, but there were only few pieces of beef (1 star off). The pork chop was hearty with all that cheese piled on top. I liked how they offered several salad options too, as I was missing having a big salad after traveling in Germany and Austria. Lastly, my favorite item here was actually their "Cremeschnitte" (cream sandwiched between phyllo dough); the cream was absolutely divine. The portions were large already, but I wished I had ordered two of those cakes. It was that good!

Dinner here was fine, but not the 4.5 star experience Yelp led us to believe. Yelpers so…read morerecommended this place that we tried to go our first night in town, and were advised that it might be a 30 minute wait -- but the staff *also* told the 7 parties ahead of us that it might be a 30 minute wait for them, too. 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.

If you're planning on having dinner in Salzburg and it's not at the Christmas market, I highly…read morerecommend eating here. 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.

Our first night in Austria and we decided to take a walk down the road to see what was out there…read more We found Almbar and went in, they happily took us even without a reservation. The rustic ambiance wasn't just for show here, it's the real deal. They were super friendly and even offered us menus printed in English. Alfons was such a friendly waiter and was wearing lederhosen to boot! They brought us each a cup of homemade cream of celery soup as a gift from the kitchen. It was delicious!! We ordered the weiner schnitzel that was made of pork and had some kind of jam to dip it into and the game pasta with homemade noddles. Both were amazing. I was pretty sure what kind of game I was eating but decided to ask Alfons after I finished just to make sure...it was venison (and in case you were wondering I was right).
