Affordable and Welcoming…read more We strolled in at about 9:30 pm tonight, clearly looking like tourists with our backpacks from the day on but got no weird looks or attitude from the servers or people in there. (Could've been because our backpacks are both black?) There was a little booth by the door which we nabbed with no problems. Plus plenty of people there but not so many you can't move. Mostly 20 something year olds but some older too. Generally attractive. The server came up to us right away to take our order even though the place looked busy. Plus the servers share their tips here. You can tell because we had at least 4 or 5 servers who waited on us. And they were all nice. I couldn't have asked for more attentiveness (one waiter got rid of an inebriated guy who clearly didn't get the hint that we weren't interested in speaking with him). I had two Johnny Walker Blacks, two Merlots and one Coke for roughly 22 euros!!! What a deal. The clincher for me is that they also play music I like which includes a whole range of house to hip hop to pop. I would have given them 5 stars had their Scotch menu been more extensive. Either way, I highly recommend!

With around 150 bottles and several taps pouring Belgian classics and local craft brews, its selection is impressive and carefully curated . The friendly bartenders--including Stefan--often guide patrons through the menu based on taste, creating a welcoming, down-to-earth vibe rather than a flashy experience . The atmosphere stays comfortably laid-back with great music, a small space that fits about 35 people, and a relaxed crowd that includes both locals and curious travelers. Just note: they operate on a cash-only basis, and the owner can occasionally be abrupt--though most visitors praise the service and ambiance overall.

You would think a restaurant inside Mozart's birth house would be super touristy and cheesy…read more However, this restaurant featured innovative and delicious cuisine that ended up being up one of our favorite meals in Salzburg! Instead of catering to tourists with clichés of Austrian cuisine, this uses elements of Austrian cuisine and other cuisines (French, Italian) to create novel, memorable dishes. - Chestnut cream and bacon soup. This was the most memorable part of our meal! The flavor is a novel blend of both sweet and savory, and the combination of textures in this soup is fun -- light froth, creaminess, the crunchiness of croutons, the chewiness of bacon. This is a dish I will remember for years. - Fried salmon. It's really more grilled than fried. The salmon is solid and well-complimented by the saffron cream sauce and the beets. The presentation and mix of colors is also beautiful. - Truffle risotto with steak. The risotto has a good consistency, and the steak lends such rich flavor, and was cooked perfectly. Additionally, the atmosphere is hip and modern and overlooks the old town. The salt and pepper combination shaker caught our attention and you can actually buy it at the front! Anyways, I highly recommend this restaurant, especially after exploring Mozart's home!

The food portion sizes were larger than any you would find in a tourist spot in the city centre. However I still found the portion size too small for €12, due to the thin size, though the quantity (2 large schnitzels) is more than you would find elsewhere in Salzburg. The restaurant is fortunately devoid of tourists. I would come back. But there's also so many other restaurants I want to try in the area!

If anything I'd say it is a nice place to enjoy a beer or two.

Carpe Diem is a one starred Michelin restaurant at the end of the pedestrian zone, near the church…read moreand parking lot. From the outside, it looks like a typical bar and patio setup. Tucked away inside and upstairs is their fine dining area. I had the "Salzburg" menu for lunch, since I was stuck in traffic and arrived after the cutoff time for the larger "Carpe Diem" menu. The menu says it is for 2 people, but they will make it for 1 person as well. At the time, I was a little bummed because I wanted more food, but I am glad it turned out that way because I was stuffed. Started out with two amuse bouche items, one with duck, and one with scallops with a mango maracuna (passion fruit/lilikoi) sauce. The scallops paired VERY nicely with the sauce, as I love both mangoes and passion fruit. Next, was the goose liver with kumquat and Brazil nuts. The goose liver was cold/frozen and shaped into small ice cream like scoops and came out with some shave ice type flavors. It made it really easy to eat, but also had to eat it sort of quickly so the shave ice didn't just melt. The candied kumquat skin added a nice tartness to the goose liver. Third, was the black cod, coconut miso, tamarillo, and green asparagus. This was my favorite dish of the set. I had never heard of tamarillo before, but it tasted like papaya. After I looked it up, it is supposed to taste like a mix of passion fruit and tomatoes. Either way, the coconut miso had just enough flavor to complement the fish, but not overpower it. The final dish (before dessert) was veal, cream of spinach, mushrooms and blueberry. I was unsure of what to expect before it arrived, but worked nicely with the tender veal. For dessert, was chocolate, banana, and passion fruit. On the hot day that I dined here, it was perfect to cool off before I headed back out on the road. To top it off, they gave me two chocolate balls to take to go! I am glad that I ended arriving a bit late because I was stuffed. Next time I go to Salzburg, I will make sure to have the "Carpe Diem" menu for dinner and arrive hungry!
