We'd rolled into Salzburg and were ready for that full Austrian experience. PitterKeller was…read moreperfect: one of the oldest beer cellars in the city. It has that charm you feel when you enter, with wood paneled walls and an Alpine ambience. I was all about the Wiener Schnitzel (veal, "Viennese style") with parsley potatoes and cranberries. It was executed perfectly. My husband and I went all out and ordered the Salzburger Nockerl. This is the dessert meant for two people made famous in Salzburg - a vanilla egg soufflé whipped to look like three peaks then served with a raspberry or cranberry sauce. It's like a meringue or soufflé. I'd hoped for raspberry but the cranberry we had was still good and contrasted well with the meringue. Do not attempt to eat this by yourself though! Definitely come here if you'd like some great Austrian food.

Beautiful, quaint restaurant near Mirabell. Our server was good and friendly. However the food was…read morefair. We had soup (beef broth with cheese dumpling)-it was very salty. My husband and i split a dinner bc we wanted a dessert after dinner. The ribs we had were so salty as well. A side was a small corn on the cob and it was chewy and dry but I think the corn is just how it is in Austria-more chewy than soft. The dessert we were looking forward to-Salzburger Nockerln-was very tough. Like the egg whites had been beaten too long and hardly sweet at all. We have had this many places and it was just not good. Very disappointed in the caliber of the food. Normally I write glowing reviews but tonight this was just meh.

We loved the Schnitzel and the Surbaten / Schweinsbraten combo was a great way to try the traditional pork and pickled pork. The potato salad was amazing (under the Schnitzel).

The menu, like most in Austria, was clearly marked with allergens present in the food. There was not much to choose from as far as vegan options go. I selected a potato and vegetable medley. I wasn't expecting much. When the dish was brought out, it looked a hundred times better than what I expected. The veggies appeared to be fresh and were nicely roasted. I took a bite and was blown away. Perfectly oiled and salted with an excellent texture. This was a great veggie medley. Overall, my wife and I were pleased with our experience here.

I'm sorry, but I was left terribly unimpressed with this place…read more I was with a group touring Linz, and we had booked this place to have lunch. While I understand that the options in terms of food will vary, I still hold them to the same standard of food quality, and some standard of service. Here goes... Service: Service was good, considering we were a very large group. However, there was bread on the table, and the group and restaurant had to debate whether or not it was free. I get that serving bread before the meal for free is not customary in Austria, but why put bread in the middle of tables if it might cost money... and how do you intend to have people pay for a communal bread bowl? Food: Out of the given options to my group, I chose the beef soup, the chicken, and a salad was provided to everyone. Beef soup was beefy salty broth with small pieces of pancake noodles. Not a piece of beef in sight. Salad from the salad bar was good! There was a good variety of ingredients available, and ingredients were fresh and of good quality. Chicken, as well as the rice and vegetables that came with it, were cooked perfectly. However, the sauce/marinade with the chicken while pleasant made the chicken way over salted. Vegetables and rice lacked any seasoning whatsoever; they were just boiled rice and vegetables. Suffice it to say, if and when I visit Linz again, I will not be returning to this location.
