Shiki Japanese Fine Dining | Brasserie | Bar

outside its nice to sit but way too loud due to the touristic main street next to the restaurant. food was amazing as expected. service was super friendly but felt a bit too professional and cold. I didn't feel comfortable enough to come again and spend 120€ per person. (the vegan nigiri are world class!)

I had dinner at the Shiki fine dining Food: The dishes were delicious, with a authentic Japanese flavor not common in western cuisine. However, they lacked the wow factor I was hoping for at this price point. Service: The staff was wonderful—kind, friendly, and professional. Ambiance: The atmosphere was cozy and intimate, but perhaps a bit too enclosed for my taste. The lack of windows and dim lighting made the space feel quite dark. Given the high expectations set by the menu prices, I was hoping for a bit more in terms of both food and ambiance. While the quality was good, it didn’t quite match the premium pricing compared to similar restaurants in this category. Overall, I had a good dining experience with delicious food and excellent service, but I felt the price was a bit steep for what was delivered.

The Japanese restaurant offers a delightful culinary experience with its delicious food and elegant ambiance. The fine dining atmosphere is complemented by attentive and friendly service. Though, it’s worth noting that the price for this experience might not be suitable for everyone. While the quality of the food and service is commendable, there are other options available that offer a similar experience at a more affordable price. Nonetheless, if you are willing to splurge, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

Celebrated my B-day here. The food was disappointing as for fine dining. From the 7 items set only 2 were okay. Dishes with the stains. Can’t even describe the matcha lava cake with incompatible textures and finger print on the decorative elements. No one asked regarding the satisfaction of the meals and overall experience. On top of that the waitress behaved like we were visiting her own apartment with no invitation. And for a high end restaurant NOT congratulating guest on a Birthday is totally a joke. Even though it was specifically mentioned on the reservation and during the visit. Used to like this restaurant since they provided quality service and food but not anymore. Birthday dinner was disappointing.

The tasting menu is super tasty. We had sake pairing which was perfect with all dishes. Highlights for the wagyu and lobster with wagyu ragu. The niguiri was ok, the shari has room for improvement.

Delicious food with a lot of effort put into presentation The prices are as to be expected but I think it’s worth it

As a Japanese, I confirm that this is where you can enjoy decent Japanese cuisine in Vienna!!😁 of course it’s not very cheap and affordable to go there every week, but it is definitely worth a try. I had best matcha lava Kuchen! Sushi quality was on top! You cannot get this high quality of sushi anywhere else in Vienna… Tenpura was also very very yum🥹

We went to shiki on our anniversary because we both love sushi and it said to be Viennas number one place to get you sushi fix. With those high expectations we ordered the sushi menu up and down, like the foodies that we are. The disappointment could not have been greater. The rice was undercooked and underflavoured(with rice vinegar). The tuna was not fresh and some of the makis were not well rolled. Everything we ate lacked flavour and technique. What we got was fast food for fine dining prices. The one good I will mention is the desert which was delicious and crafty. The staff was very friendly and took some stuff that we couldn’t even eat off the bill. The vibe is good until you get your food. How they got mentioned in guide de Michelin baffles me! Very unfortunate for the hype around it

Very rude staff with no sense how to talk to kids and senior citizen , unpleasing experience , would never recommend.

Coming from California and having traveled all over Japan i was inspired to hear about this Japanese/Viennese chef having created this experience in Vienna. Shiki was very highly recommended by our concierge who was constantly being challenged by us to find a restaurant that served something other than goulash and snitzel. The rolls we ordered were boring. The sushi was ok. The ambiance was sophisticated and very pleasant. It made me miss Ventura blvd and the myriad of sushi restaurants that dot it for a two mile stretch in the valley. I will never complain about the sushi in Los Angeles ever again!

Had wagyu burger, taste was great and better than expected. Service was also great. Thanks

Let's just say the fish chef should get some training how to cut fish. Very poor skills. I think the owner should sharpen the knives.

Certainly this was the best meal we had in Vienna over our 6 days here. While I loved sampling the food stalls at the various Christmas markets we visited, the Viennese cafes, and the European fine dining, after a few days my body was done with European food and just needed some Asian flavors. Shiki did not disappoint. It was all my Japanese comfort foods, heightened to beautiful new heights. I really loved how there was classic Viennese and European ingredients but done in a very Japanese way. Chef Hattori really shines brightly with desserts. While our entire meal was heavenly, the desserts are what stood out and were absolutely memorable. In a city filled with amazing desserts, I didn't expect for the very best - most enjoyable, artfully presented, and delicious - to come from a Japanese restaurant. They were so good, that it put the Cafe Sachers, Landtmanns, Demels and all the other "classic" Viennese places we tried, to absolute shame. Coming here for our last night in Vienna was a beautiful way to say goodbye to this amazing city. Having dined here makes me less sad that I am missing Osechi-ryoori (traditional Japanese New Years meal) at home with my parents. I highly recommend Shiki for a beautiful meal. I look forward to coming back someday.

Do not order the bento box !! They did not make any of it fresh-- tasted like a buffet at best. You can tell it was very old. For the price - very bad value. The service was great though.

Nice chic place in the heart of Vienna. They don't have the most authentic Japanese cuisine available in Vienna, but certainly do a very good job in a romantic and well-designed location. Plus the opening hours are very accommodating and not usual in Vienna: They practically open all the way from noon to midnight.

Probably one of the worst sushi I've ever had. You might as well have sushi from a grocery store. The sushi is seasoned terribly, the nigri was minuscule, and it was far too expensive for bad sushi. This place should stick to the basics because this weird sushi was bad.

A very nice place. The room in the front is beautiful and feels tranquil, lounge-like, maybe like the hip cafeteria of a well-designed modern art museum. The staff is attentive and pleasant without stiffness. The food was of excellent quality with a noticable love for flavor nuances. Many subtle spices and tastes took the food into interesting directions. From the brushed-on soy sauce on the perfectly cut nigiri pieces, to the saffron in the potato cream complimenting the juicy Loup de Mer. Even the Gelber Muskateller was a nice pick with not too much fruit. It was a great experience and I am looking forward to the next time.

I visited this place for dinner. Very nice and classy ambience. You wouldnt know that this was a japanese place if not for the sushi chefs at the front of the restaurant. The food and ingredients were fresh and beautifully presented. If you are planning on visiting, dont expect a traditional japanese restaurant. Its a modern take on japanese ingredients, so the flavours are quite different from typical japanee cuisine. The menu items are also very different from a typical japanese restaurant. Slightly pricey in my opinion, but this is definitely a nice place to try if you are into fusion japanese food in a beautiful setting.

Brasserie on one side and fine dining on the other (back). Neither fish nor fowl: Somewhat weird, experimental Austrian-Asian (Japanese? It is not! Don't bother trying the sushi!) cuisine. On top of everything quite pricey it is. Service is good but entirely un-Japanese.

Stay away as this is the mother of all tourist traps. Even though the target group appears to be the local it is really the rich tourists strolling-by. Food is below average by any standard. The cut of the sushi is poor, only the ingredients (fish and rice) is good. Unfortunately even the service quality is not exactly the best in town either. Most eye-catching is the interior.
