Quite tight seating. Restrooms are not accessible by people with limited mobility. No baby changing stations. The food is okay. The schnitzel was fine and so was lamb. Okay to eat but not memorable. Caprese salad was tasty. In conclusion, if you are passing by and hungry, feel free to stop by. If you are looking for a memorable lunch/dinner experience, plan to visit a different establishment.

In the land of Schnitzels, how does one decide on which has the best? We were referred to Gasthaus…read moreand decided to try it out. Besides Schnitzels, they have a lot of other traditional comfort foods. I had the schnitzel cordon bleu. The meat was perfectly fried and stuffed the ham and cheese was delicious. Don't forget to ask for extra lemon to put on the huge schnitzel! It also comes with a side salad which was average. This restaurant is little off the beaten path and I wouldn't necessary come out of my way to eat here. But if you are staying in this neighborhood, it's a good choice The service here is really friendly and it feels like a family owned business.

After a early morning tour, our group met and walked over to Zum weißen Rauchfangkehrer for our lunch... about 35 people. We all grabbed a seat at the family style tables and prepared ourselves for what was about to be a very [very] robust lunch. Happily, everything was picked out for us. Our first course was a beef broth soup with one very large dumpling. Rich-tasty and delicious. Our main meal consisted of Schnitzel with potato salad. This was and remains the best schnitzel of the trip. Delicious, fresh and incredibly tasty. And, of course, we hd to end with a Strudel. This was just amazing. I also loved all the wines that we had throughout the meal The old style decor of this shop was wonderful and the service team was amazing, friendly, and helpful. I really wish it was a bit closer to me here back in the states. I could not reccomend this place enough. KUDOs to the team at Zum weißen Rauchfangkehrer

There is automatic cover charge of 5.5 € per person for bread butter and sun flower seeds that the restaurant call "small surprise ". When asked, the waiter said that all Austrian restaurants include that . Ordered Schweinsweiner, kavalierspitz, and consume soup. The soup is so salty so the house took it off the bill. Very unfortunate for a Michelin mentioned restaurant. The ox spitz has the crispy bread crumbs on top with soft meat on top a bed of veggies. Highly recommend. Vienna Schnitzel is ok but the schnitzel one is better. Service is good. The house did bring out the cucumber cold soup to clear the palate and the cold chocolate to end the meal on the house. Very nice service.

Food dreams can be restored in future nights to come. I guess I just did not care what anyone thought. I took pics anyway. I just thought I was being sensitive to other patrons. Let's just say I tried to not be too obnoxious about it. So, yes I did consume with my camera first! I can say with absolute certainty, that this was our most perfect and intimate dining experience in Vienna. It was just lunch! The surrounding patrons appeared to be locals with huge platters of piping hot Wienerschnitzel, succulent looking meat falling off the bone....oh my, I could go on and on. Lord help me, that was a great experience. I ordered an exquisite Riesling that was perfect with my meal. I ordered the Goose Soup to start with. I shake my head now in disbelief of how perfect this soup was and LUSCIOUS. It had this potato dumpling in the middle that absorbed the creamy broth with every single bite. I was sad to see the dumpling and soup go away as I savored every spoonful. My husband had a potato soup that included mushrooms and he was pretty much freaking out about his soup as much as I was (in his own, subdued, calm manner....opposite mine!). Then Meine Damen und Herren. We have the Weinerschnitzel. Oh my goodness. We split the massive and simply prepared veal weinerschnitzel with the lemon wedge squeezing the only and perfect seasoning you need for this deliciousness in front of you. I cannot even express the greatness of the potato salad that accompanies. Smooth and creamy mustardy goodness. I would seek out this restaurant again. If every authentic Keller type dining experience is this good in Vienna; I am in big trouble!

Our waiter spoke enough English to get by with us, and they had an English menu available.

I'd rate Gasthaus Zur Eisernen Zeit four and a half stars…read more One of the few places that was open a Sunday afternoon. The gasthaus had a wonderful aroma as soon as we walked in. A smell of deep caramelization. We were fortunate to walk in as soon as a table left. All the other tables were occupied and many customers were sadly turned away. We opted for the classics: beef goulash and veal schnitzel. Both were excellent. Goulash had a rich earthy and savory taste. Felt like a lot of love was put into making it. Beef was tender. I requested a roll to mop up every bit of the remaining gravy. Schnitzel was super crispy, juicy, and well seasoned. It came with a side of potato salad. Drink wise, I started with an espresso with milk and then pivoted to a blonde ale. The staff was attentive and the pacing of the food was quick. Despite being busy, we did not feel rushed.

Nice and cozy on the inside, nice ambient noise with idle chit chat from the other dinners, wait staff was very welcoming and were quick to switch over to English seeing we didn't speak German. Had a helles style draft that was refreshing and cold. We tried a celery cream soup which was warm, well bodied, and not too rich - just a bit of the celery came through. Of course we did have the schnitzel, a must with the potatoe salad - it offers a nice contrast to the fried schnitzel, we were told it's the traditional way to go and did not feel let down! The goulash was tasty, bread dumpling was interesting and complimented the beef well. Apple strudel was delightful, nice spice and tartness coupled with the sweet. A delightful way to end the meal. Overall, nothing life changing - but a nice meal in a warm and welcoming environment.
