They require reservations (and were full) but managed to squeeze us in. So glad they did! The manager was super friendly and the house and staff were of an older period, like a rustic old Inn for weary travelers. DH had the special pork shoulder and dumplings. The meat fell off the bone and was super juicy and tender. Potato and bread dumplings stick to the ribs and soak up the delicious sauces. My pork snitzel was excellent. Pounded flat, battered and baked it was tasty and tender. The super generous portion of crispy fries made me feel at home having chicken fried pork! Perfectly satisfying meal to finally eat 'off the boat' on a chilly day.

Austrian-Bavarian type fare, but light and day per fresh. Plenty of vegan and vegetarian options and great for groups big and small. The service was fantastic. Super family friendly. Will have to find reasons to be in the neighbourhood again! Worth noting that they don't take credit cards.

Just excellently prepared Austrian inspired, Michelin starred cuisine served with heart and soul. We ordered the Esszimmer tasting menu which was more seafood centric and came out with the amuse Boucher and another added course to 9 courses. Everything hit its mark and was just the loveliest. It's not a pretentious restaurant, I've had American Michelin starred restaurants like Manresa and Providence and those bored me and were disappointing. Everyone here was friendly even though my German is non existent. Photos don't do it justice. Highly recommended when in Salzburg.
