The owners used to have a place on the Pilgramgasse near where I live but about a year and a half ago they relocated to the Naschmarkt ... .with tasty results. The Pelmeni here are simply awesome - no matter what filling(s) you choose. With sour cream and some hot sauce, these small dumplings melt in your mouth. And of course they have Pirozhki ... in several varieties. And if you like Uzbekistani food as I do, they have the tastiest Manti in Vienna. I wish they carried even more Uzbek food since Vienna's main Uzbek restaurant closed a year ago unfortunately due to a lack of business. (When I'm in Philadelphia I'm lucky to have several Uzbek restaurants to choose from so all is not lost.) But my favorite dish to take out (or eat right there) from Zarewna's are the Pelmeni. They take about 15 minutes to prepare so it also gives you time to chat with the owners ..... whom I find to be always friendly. Priyatnogo appetita!!

The best part - my treat filled me right up for less than EUR $3.

The décor is beautiful and feels like stepping into a classic Viennese dining room with Michelin star feel. We had the seafood bisque, boiled beef, and veal schnitzel, finishing with their world-famous Sacher cake. The bisque was the best I've had in a long time - creamy, rich, and packed with flavor. Schnitzel was excellent, crisp yet tender, while the boiled beef was just okay. Service was top-notch, five-star level, and the setting made the whole experience feel special. And yes, the cake truly lives up to the hype. Definitely recommend!

Make sure to reserve in advance and wear appropriate clothes bc there is a dress code (they weren't too happy with my micro bubble skirt oops). They start you off with a warm, chewy potato bread with three types of butter & grilled eggplant in watercress juice that tastes refreshingly bitter. Worth the cover charge imo ‍ We ordered the green melon gazpacho, very light and fruity, but our fav was the foie gras tarte! Chocolate and liver make an excellent pair The liver had none of the metallic flavor, just tasted glorious with the elderberry jam and apricot gelée. The main dishes, while beautifully plated, tasted average. Both the beef and chicken were overcooked for our liking. Not bad but we had higher expectations. Rly good fresh linguine tho! And for the finale, Sacher torte I wanted to like it but it was unbelievably dry with a dense crumbly cake layer and a strong, garish sweetness that deters you after a couple of bites. Not even the whipped cream & strong coffee could save it.

First two bottles of vodka and appetizers covered by the host, and then the main dish covered by us. And somehow I still ended up paying 35 Euros for a less than impressive meal. The house requested we accept their choice of plates. I saw nothing really Russian in their choices (I've traveled to Russia and had Russian food before). I even spoke to some of my Russian friends about the food we ate there they were surprised. Maybe its what the house brought out, but mash potato paddies, and steamed broccoli and cauliflower are not very Russian to me. I can't even remember what else was on the plate because I was so less than impressed. Save your money, go somewhere else. At least the paintings on the wall was nice and the table cloth and napkins represented St Petersburg.... This place gets two stars because the Vodka was decent and I didn't get food poisoning.

We were seated at a table by the window, and served by a nice older waiter who spoke excellent English. We made the mistake of asking for water and ended up paying for expensive bottled water. We ordered a smoked salmon salad, sausages wrapped in bacon and served with fries, gnocchi in pesto, and tartufo. The salad had plenty of salmon, but not much else in the way of dressing, which was a bit disappointing since the rest of it was just lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers. The sausage plate came with one sausage wrapped in bacon and one sausage more like a polish sausage, and plenty of fries. The sausages were good, but a bit too heavy for lunch. I'm not sure how the gnocchi was since my sister pretty much devoured it. We all enjoyed the tartufo, though that may have just been because it was chocolate and we were stressed. The bill was a bit much for what was adequate but not particularly outstanding food. Ambiance was pleasant but bland in a sort of hotel-restaurant style. Two-ish stars, with maybe an extra half-star for the nice waiter.

As I pointed out to the waiter at the closing of the accounts that I booked via delinski; he replied that this is only possible if I announce this in advance. Delinski is a Plattform where you get discount at a restaurant if you book online. I then talked to the owner who also told me this and asked if he could take the discount into account as we had booked. However, he started to get aggressive and very loud and told me that here his rules apply and that he doesn't give a damn what I think and that in his restaurant his rules apply. He also took an alcohol bottle on me in throwing position and started to use very aggressive body language. In the end he told me what a loser I am and that I can "sneak". Absolutely Not recommended !

Though there are many other nearby places to dine, Zum Leupold, with pleasant al fresco seating that flanks the sidewalks, was impossible to miss. Though many of the tables are outfitted with "reserved" signs and you'll be asked if you have reservations, I dined here twice with no advance reservations, landing an outdoor table on both occasions. Was it a place that's worth dining twice at though? That's the question. Here at Zum Leupold I think one should stick to foods that are traditional to the area and not stray from that regardless of the what's on the menu. Goulash and goulash soup were perfect representations; roast beef far less so. I grew partial to the fried Emmentaler cheese dish that's served with berry jam because, well, fried cheese. I'm uncertain of the origins of this dish but harbor a belief that fried cheese is never a bad thing;in fact, it's quite delicious. Pleasant and tasty if you keep things fairly basic, this full service restaurant proved quite satisfying on both visits.

They had live music going, which added such a nice vibe, and the ceiling décor alone is worth a moment of appreciation--seriously so pretty. The ambience? On point. Service? Super friendly. People? Very sweet. It's one of those places that just feels good to be in.

For drinks, I tried the Noelle (Dewar's 12Y infused with tonka beans, cacao white, gingerbread, orange, and lemon, topped with honey espuma/foam) -- it was like sipping a yummy dessert. Tonka beans are not available in the U.S., so I had to try this drink. The Triple Berry (sparkling water with strawberry, wild berry, raspberry, passion fruit, and vanilla) was also refreshing for summertime. I only came here for dessert and drinks, but others have came for breakfast and dinner and enjoyed the food as well. A restaurant with amazing views and good food and drinks? That's a triple threat!
