Labstelle

I’ll start by saying that I had high expectations and left a bit disappointed. We had the tasting dinner menu with wine paring. The food was presented beautifully and the restaurant was lovely. However… I personally had the vegan menu and it was really lacking in flavor. The wines were mostly Austrian, and they were just good. The service was quite bad. Our server was always rushing when delivering the dishes and describing them. And it took them more than 25min to bring final dessert course - and all we got is a quick “sorry for the wait”. Overall, 6/10 :/

Overall mid. Every single dish was well executed and beautifully presented, however most of them seriously lacked flavour and imagination. Positives were also their focus on regional and high quality ingredients. In total we paid 220€ for two people (including tip), which was simply too much for this experience. Most dishes did not have an interesting or innovative flavour profile, with a few plates having either one very overpowering component (lingonberry on an otherwise very light carpaccio) or little to none flavour at all (veal tongue roll with mayo on top and some type of mayo-based coleslaw in the middle). Highlight of the meal was a very small and delicious lamb taco. In my opinion, this is an ideal restaurant for people that look to emulate a casual fine dining experience without actually caring about interesting food or depth in flavour.

Probably the best thing I had in Vienna. I got the tar tar which was incredible and had the beef cheek for dinner which was so good it will be on my mind for a few weeks. Also one of the best martinis I’ve had this year. My gf had the vegan kolrabi steak which was one of her favorites. I wish I could have gone back one more time. The service was really great as well, super friendly and prompt.

Incredible experience for the lunch service, the preset menu was excellent & the service was exceptional! Beautiful ambience throughout the service!

This restaurant should be on everyone’s list in Vienna. The concept from farm to table and the usage of local ingredients is remarkable. The staff is so attentive, polite and friendly - matches the overall atmosphere. The food was incredible tasty, and the recommended wines matched the dishes we’ve ordered. Thank you for everything, well done!

3-Gänge Menü. Staff were very friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. Great wine pairings. Nice atmosphere outside. Well sourced produce for ingredients, always something new with the menu.

The labstelle is the lovely and modern restaurant with the high quality and well presented and seasoned food. They have lunch set menu for choices and the detail and presentation are up to the standard. Most importantly, the food was amazing. Worth to spend a wonderful time with family and friends.

I had a lovely lunch at Labstelle. The food was delicious and the sommelier, Fonzy/Alessandro was extremely knowledgeable. I really appreciate that they’re serious about their offerings of wine by the glass. It’s great for individual diners like myself or tables who would like to taste and experience different wines. There was a couple small mixups and Fonzy went above and beyond to make things right. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a restaurant work to make up for some modest issues with so much effort and generosity. I will definitely be back next time I visit Vienna. In the meantime, I strongly suggest you visit.

I had dinner here with a large group and we were seated outside at one long table. The ambiance was elegant, but casual. Because we were a large group, we were able to share all the appetizers and all the desserts. I highly recommend doing this, by the way. For the appetizers, my absolute favorite was a salad of Michi Bauer's butter lettuce, strawberries, crispy bread, and elderflower -- it had the most amazing dressing. I liked it so much that I ordered a second one for the table. The oxtail croquette with lovage, radish, and daikon was an honorable mention -- it had a nice contrast of soft oxtail meat on the inside and crispy fried panko bread crumbs on the outside. The remaining appetizers (kohlrabi, heifer tartare, smoked eel in aspic) were all great as well. We even asked for the wild herbs soup with brown bread cream, radish, and watercress to be split. Yes, they can split a soup! That was a great soup. For the entree, I picked the sturgeon fillet with brandade fritters, beurre blanc, orange, and fennel. It was not bad. Several of my friends liked their veal schnitzel a lot. For dessert, because we shared everything, we got to try all three desserts from the menu. My absolute favorite was the elderberry foam -- it had a nice, light tang which was perfect for a summer evening. The chocolate cake with Michi Bauer strawberries was a close second -- very rich and decadent. I did not care for their caramelized rice pudding much. I was surprised they had Tanquary 0.0%, so got their Gin & Juice. The mixture with Gruber Röschitz grape juice and lemon was super refreshing. Labstelle's motto is "Slow down and enjoy slow food," which was exactly what we did. Service was kind and timely. We did have one waitress who was anxious, but she did not ruin dinner for us; she could use some slow down and slow food.

A privilege and a pleasure to mean each of the stars in each category. The food respected the basics. Salt and acid, overdone in other Michelin starred addresses in Vienna, were understood here. The composition of each dish demonstrated respect for gorgeous and simple basics, with room for refined, non ostentatious creativity. The service was, in my opinion, able to outshine the food here (best I've eaten in Vienna); tender, perceptive, and warmly intelligent. You are part of a fully harmonious and conscious moment here, and I deeply congratulate the staff and management for their success in making a solid experience from kitchen to plate. Thank you, Labstelle!

We were in Vienna last week and decided to give this place a try. If there's a place that has a Michelin star or two near us while we're traveling we'll generally try to get a reservation me check it out. We've eaten at some of the best restaurants in the world and we're hopeful for this seemingly new, edgy place. The ambiance is cool, and we were excited when we sat down. We both order the tasting menu with wine pairings. The service was solid. The highlight of the evening was the sommelier, which promptly delivered our pairing with enthusiasm, and showcased each wine for us. Honestly, we should have ended the evening there. The food was completely subpar, and I don't mean simply by Michelin star standards, I mean by even fast food standards. The tasting menu's dishes were tarted-up and looked the part, but the flavors were non-existent or missed the mark entirely. The main course, each of us only took a few bites of. Same goes for the course that preceded it. Honestly, the best thing we ate was the amuse-bouche. My wife, a world class cake fan was super excited for the dessert course and hoped it could salvage the otherwise incredibly disappointing cuisine. It was not to be. The final disappointment. The single star is for the ambiance, and sommelier. I would give zero stars for the food If I could. If you want to spend $500 for bland food and leave hungry, this is the place for you. If not, stick with one of the cities other establishments

Wow. Amazing food and reasonable for lunch. We recommended it to several folks we met and would go back in a heartbeat. Great food. Great service and nice atmosphere.

Our experience here was excellent. The service is very attentive, and they provide excellent descriptions of everything on the menu. The food is delicious and nicely plated. A very nice experience for an elevated casual meal.

When you are tired of Austrian schnitzel and wiener, this is the perfect break with great cocktail, fresh bread and amazing entrees. The Saturday brunch menu was a bit light so my friends and I returned for dinner and nearly ordered the entire menu. The ambience is great! Nice, quite and modern. A fresh change from the touristy feel of beer and Main Street and really friendly service. It completely put us at ease and felt just like home. The fig appetizer and duck two ways are must haves. The bee sting cake is delicious!!

I enjoyed the sophisticated space - a long rectangular restaurant with high arched ceilings and unique clusters of lights. It created a nice atmosphere, and I don't know how they managed to keep the sound to a reasonable level on a Saturday night in which the restaurant was completely full (reservations recommended). The bread provided at the onset was very good and plentiful. The rye was particularly good. Began with the veal two ways appetizer - carpaccio and tartare. It came with a lot of carrots. The tartare needed more flavor, especially just some salt. It would have also have been better if it were served on a crispy cracker or bread. One entree was the veal with dumplings and asparagus. It could have used more asparagus; it was perhaps just one stalk cut up into small pieces. The dumplings were interesting and the veal was well prepared and tasty, but it was still missing something - like a jus or gravy to help bring the dish together and make it sing. The other entree was the venison (deer). There were two pieces of loin and steak. The loin was particularly good, although all the pieces were rather small. It came with some grilled salad greens that were covered in too much balsamic sauce, along with a large bread dumpling that was surprisingly filled with shredded venison. The shredded deer was fairly tasty but a bit dry, so the bread helped. Began with the Gruner Veltliner Terrassen, which was very tart, and the Gruner Veltliner Federspiel Treu, which was minerally. Both were way too cold. Then we tried the Zweigelt Hauslinie, which was a bit too light for the meal, and the Blaufrankish Samt & Seide. For dessert we had the St. Laurent Classic which was the best (it did have rather high acidity) and the Cuvee Heideboden, which was earthy and the heaviest of the wines. All of this was 110 euros.

Wonderfull, if this app had more stars I would add! Amazing food! I had an organic chicken and my husband had a Lamb, both were fantastic.

Great find, very upscale located down alley on 6 Lugeck. Excellent lunch, great staff (Daniel and Morin) great atmosphere just away from chaos. Can't give high enough praise!

A unique, modern and very sleek restaurant in the very heart of Vienna. Together with it's modern interior, Labstelle also serves some amazingly delicious and very honest food. Daily lunch specials includes a 2-course menu for a very - and surprisingly - low price, while the dinner tends to get pricier but still very affordable and valuable. Drinks are especially good here too. Go for one of their many cocktails from the large assortment, go nuts on one of their many no-alcohol drinks or drink a glass of wine from their well-paired wine list. Everything is beyond amazing. I really love the beautifully designed space - very Scandinavian inspired - with Wegner chairs, Menu salt and pepper grinders and Vipp in the bathroom. It really talks to my interior design heart. The staff is really friendly too. Nothing to blame this restaurant for. The food is honest and very good, prices are low and the space is utterly beautiful. A hidden gem in a jungle of many - not that great - restaurants in Vienna.

We did the four courses and while it was a little pricey it will definitely fill you up. They served cheese, fish, steak, a melon soup, a fruit creme, and a goat cheesecake. I'm giving it 4 stars cause there's not much of a view and we sat outside and all the tourists walked by and ogled at our meal. Which I'm not too crazy about. But the food was good and flavorful.

While visiting Vienna my wife and I stopped in for dinner. The prospect of a "surprise" menu really appealed to us. As it turned out it was 6 courses of "whatever Chef wants to make tonight" and I really could not have been happier. I have eaten at James Beard Award and Michelin star restaurants, even those of Iron Chef Mike Symon and I preferred this. The food is creative, the balance is exquisite and it is clear a great deal of thought/care goes into every aspect. When we asked for a wine suggestion, the waiter brought a new glass for each course. The service was impeccable and the dining room is a truly nice place to sit. I was provided an English menu, and the wait staff all spoke English and went out of their way to accommodate my poor German and make me feel comfortable. In short, a must visit. Please trust the chef, your faith will be handsomely rewarded. A bargain at twice the price.

Nice atmosphere and good service, but the food is not worth the price. Meat was too well done which should be medium and my main dish was missing the main ingredient. For 50 EUR per person I'm expecting far more quality.

Great little spot with a nice ambiance and good food. The pumpkin soup is delicious-- fresh and not sweet, and the spinach salad with goat cheese was yummy. The lunch menu is very limited, though.

the labstelle is a very trendy almost new place in the inner city. it really reminded me of the chique place you can go in new york city, very stylish. the service is quick and furthcoming, and always there when you need it. the food was very good, although we didn't eat much, the portion was a bit small for the price. the ambiance is modern and I felt very comfortable there. One friend of mine had a rose sparkling wine, but this wasn't good at all. mainly lokal things are served, no foreign wine.
