Came here after seeing excellent reviews on Yelp…read more Not impressed. Waited about 15 mins to get seated even though multiple tables were empty. The staff is limited and looks exhausted. 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.

Nondescript from the outside, the interior seems to have seen better days but what is truly beautiful is the enclosed terrace with its little pond, the different sections, the plants and flowers. The food is wonderful, definitely bordering on fine dining. If you happen to be there for the famed "Candle Light Dinner" (a seven course meal consisting of seasonal delicacies) you will think you've gone to culinary heaven. Not to be missed and definitely the best restaurant in a wide radius.

The wienerschnitzel was very dark, a minute more and it would have been burnt. The venison ragout was so dry. And the goulash had hardly any tomato or paprika flavor. We sat outside and were swarmed by bees. Overall, one of our worst meals in lower Austria.

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!

But it was a Sunday evening and all was closed, quite, silent. Therefore, we decided try that famous Knoll place, which is usually pretty busy ... and a bit posh. But I have to tel you, we have got the best experience. Great soups (a Fish Soup with safran, a Goose Soup with liver dumplings), Roasted Pork with Dumplings, a delicious Tafelspitz, and Plum Dumplings, hmm. All accompanied with a wonderfully fresh Gruener Veltliner Federspiel Knoll 2012. The pride of this restaurant is its spacy orchard garden, of course, but it was too late and too cold to sit outside. So we were inside this time, in a nice and clean, blue-green interier, with nice white tables. We will be definitely coming back. Thank you!

Marchfelderhof is truly an Austrian institution -- famous for its over-the-top decor, long-standing…read morehistory, and its popular white asparagus menu during spring (April to June). We came on a Thursday evening as a party of five and were seated promptly (with reservation). As many others have noted, the ambiance is intricate, quirky, and packed with character. Every booth is a mini shrine to celebrity guests; ours was lined with plaques from dignitaries and ambassadors galore -- a conversation starter for sure. While the setting is memorable, the food could use more attention. We tried the asparagus two ways (steamed and fried), asparagus with salmon, and asparagus risotto. The white asparagus itself was well-prepared, but the accompanying dishes fell short. The risotto was overly soft and lacked any discernible grains, the salmon was dry, and overall, the sides didn't match the quality of the star ingredient. Prices are high, though arguably fitting for the ambiance and service. In short: a fun and unique night out with lots of flair, but I'd love to see the kitchen step up to match the setting.
