Waldviertlerhof

This is our favourite restaurant in Vienna. Excellent food, super kind staff and honest prices. Everything was tasty, well balanced and the portions were generous. Shoutout to Stefan for being one of the nicest person we have came across :) What a great local find with authentic Austrian cuisine.We highly recommend to anyone for their first time visiting the city looking for a taste of local cuisine!

A restaurant that is very close to the hotel I am staying at (and recommended by the the hotel staff), I went there with my colleagues. We did not have a reservation, but the staff very kindly still tried to find a table for us. Super friendly and helpful staff throughout the dinner. We all had the beef goulash, and we were all very happy with jt. Great food, great service, and very nice environment! Highly recommended restaurant…

Awesome spot, the back patio is glorious!! The large tree cover is gorgeous. The roasted dumplings were OUTSTANDING. Like, I didn’t know dumplings could taste this good. Little heavenly pillows. Lovely beer selection and an overall perfect lunch spot.

Great place for local Austrian food and great beer. Service was excellent.

I wanted to try Austria's famous Wiener Schnitzel, but I found that several well-known restaurants required reservations far in advance. Finally, I found this local restaurant online. The restaurant was filled with locals, and the food was outstanding. The soup was very tasty, and the fried beef cutlet (Wiener Zwiebelrostbraten) was excellent (I later realized it was a fried beef cutlet, not a chicken cutlet, haha).

Went here with some friends to try the local cousine. The location is amazing: other than the rooms inside, there is a small garden with 10/15 tables. Quiet, cozy and not too crowded. About the food... it's really good, nothing to say about that. I ordered a schitzel (a must try) and a bottle of water. Ask for the "beere" with the schnitzel - it's fruit jam that they serve in a small bowl with the schnitzel. It costs 1,80 euro but it's worth trying, at least once. Now about the service...I gave one star because the server was pretty rude, didnt take the time to explain what the actual dishes were - my friend after dinner didnt even know what they brought him. When we were asking him about the tip (Trinkgeld) he didnt have the patience to explain and put 4 euros as tip without even asking permission.

Nice place where to have a delicious meal. On sunny may day we really enjoyed the food in backyard of restaurant in the shade of big trees. Service was fast and very kind, and the food was great as well. We definitely suggest this restaurant.

Wow what a hidden gem this is... make sure you book at least 1 day in advance as this is a popular haunt with locals. The 'Martini' Goose was amazing, roast beef and pork is lovely as is the Sirloin Steak. Serves wine by the carafe and bottle and the beer is lovely 😍. Service was superb and on the ball. The waiters have a dry sense of humour and when our daughter asked for the bill in German they loved it! Came here 4 years ago and didn't disappoint then. We have been here on both of our nights in Vienna and will definitely come back again!

We gathered here for seasonal Gansl Essen (goose). From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel welcome. As soon as we entered the restaurant, multiple staff members acknowledged us with "good evening," "welcome," and other similar greetings. While one staff member took our orders, the entire evening was clearly a team effort. Various staff members brought out our food, our drinks were kept topped up, and there was always someone nearby to grab if we needed anything else in between... The restaurant has a very cozy feel, and while we were in Vienna proper, the dining area could have been pulled out of a restaurant in the countryside. The food was fresh, bright, and delicious. Last time I had Gansl Essen at another establishment, I remember the meat being considerably more greasy. While this meat wasn't as greasy, it was still moist and tasty. The salad was light and fresh, and the dessert is unique to this area of Austria. We greatly enjoyed spending time with one another here over the course of several hours, and Waldviertlerhof made this possible.

We were in Vienna and this restaurant was highly recommended. Upon entering we asked if we could get a table for 2 and were asked if we had a reservation. We said no and then were very abruptly told No! That a table outside wasn't available. We then asked if we could sit inside and they were able to seat us. Not the best first impression however, they did make up for it with different servers and excellent food. My husband had the steak and I had Cordon Bleu . Both amazing. However, the salad we had was the star of the meal. I've never, ever, been excited about a salad in my life but on this very warm day, this light & flavorful salad hit on every level. The buratta cheese was the lightest and fluffiest I have ever had. The food here is outstanding.

This place is a gem. Luckily I found it through yelp. Food is delicious here especially the beef goulash and the potatoe salad is amazing. Their service isn't the greatest since English is barely spoken in the restaurant but luckily they have some English menus. This is definitely a local spot so come try it if your around or thinking of making the trek here. Btw, the interior is very nice with a old wooden type of castle feel to it.

Weather was nice and sitting outside and having delicious food was fantastic. I tried their daily menu together with the people working in the neighbourhood and it was wonderful .

This restaurant has a nice simple wooden interior. The atmosphere is moderately quiet with only a few scattered conversations going on. I ordered the Suckling Lamb Pork Chops and they were absolutely delicious. It had this potato like pasta that was very good as well. I would order the dish again in a heartbeat. The flavor was rich and not oily at all. My stomach hadn't been doing so well from the food I'd eaten in Hungary but this cured me. I felt great after eating here. I would definitely come here again, and I would easily recommend this to my friends. The service was great too. The waitress was very attentive and was always ready with suggestions and to take my order. It was a nice change of pace after being in Budapest. I was the only English speaking customer while here, which I think is a testament to how good the restaurant is if it's frequented by so many locals. Do yourself a favor and stop by here while you're in Vienna.

More of a local spot, had an English menu that I could use, but glad I came with an Austrian friend who spoke German. Restaurant is very warm, I have on a medium sweater and am sweating. Food was good, but I like very clean meat and the goulash had some fatty parts which was not something I loved. The potato salad and schnitzel were very good.

Here at the Waldviertlerhof you are in the heart of Vienna's 5th district. Surrounded by a nice ambience in this fancy neighborhood the Waldviertlerhof restaurant is an institution for Vienna where you get authentic delicious Austrian food in a traditional environment. We had the delicious Waldviertler Gröstl with bacon, scrambled eggs, potatoes and green salad. What we also had was the Beuschel, to be specific the Kalbsrahmbeuschel, a creamed and chopped calf's light with bread dumplings, also a delicious traditional meal from the Austrian cuisine. The staff is friendly, the prices are in the midrange segment and you get good quality for your money in a traditional Austrian ambience. With Love! Dr. Dr. Immanuel Fruhmann

So, folks, if you like bacon, this is your heaven! Me ... Can't even stand the smell of bacon, or fat meat, or pork... So here I am in an Austrian restaurant, looking at a menu in German and see that pretty much everything is repaired with "speck" and with my very limited German I assume it's bacon. But then I request the menu in English and it doesn't really say that bacon is used in preparation of everything, so I order my meal just to discover it's cooked with bacon:-( Good thing I had a very decent soup and salad before that. My husband felt sorry for me and offered so kindly to share his meal with me, which he loved, but guess what?... It was cooked with bacon bits as well:-) Anyway, Bon appetite to all the bacon lovers!

We came in late, but they are a little judgy of Americans. Only gave us two options to chose from. Definitely mostly locals. Have beer and wine. The beef tartare is great. The potato soup is good. beer is good. They give you a carafe of water. It is hot in the restaurant. Glad we came but wish they were less judgy!

The Waldvierlerhof is one of my favorite neighborhood restaurants and one I often recommend to people visiting me for a taste of traditional Viennese cuisine with a few culinary specialties from the Waldviertel in Lower Austria added in. With this combination you can't go wrong. What is my favorite dish here? Well I like many but you can't go wrong with a traditional Viennese Zwiebelrostbraten or a Tafelspitz. The decor is really cool .... almost like being in a museum except it feels much warmer than most museums. And when the weather is nice, you can dine & drink out in the gemütlich Gastgarten. Yes they have great Austrian wines and beers. So if you're in Vienna and want a traditional neighborhood Beisl experience, head to the highly recommended Waldviertlerhof in my neighborhood of Margareten.

Very good, soups with boiled beef and veggies rocked. I also had the rump roast with sliced garlic and an awesome brown sauce. Loved it... You can smoke in this place but we ate in the non smoking room. no smells from the smokers. I recommend for sure.

Perfect Austrian restaurant ! A lot of locals ... Excellent good en service. I highly recommend this place if you're visiting Vienna !

Wonderful Austrian food with friendly waiter service. Don't miss the special garlic soup. The Wiener schnitzel and the beef were both excellent

Delicious! We had a wonderful meal on our first day in Vienna. Amazing Wiener schnitzel. My husband ordered something mysterious that was like a beef stew with big dumplings. We got home and translated it and it was calf's lung and heart! Hahaha. We didn't care because it was truly delicious! And we loved the local beer. They have a lovely back garden. Highly recommend this place. We're hoping to go back before we leave.

Just a beer before we hit the local Burger bar but have to say the food smell was delicious ! Will need to come back and try.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Vienna! They have awesome traditional dishes, and priced well. The ambiance is also very Austrian. MUST TRY!

Sat outside in the back of the restaurant. Warm evening but pleasant on patio. Smoking a slight nusance. Great service, staff were friendly once they warmed up to us. English menu is abbreviated version of German menu due to changing daily specials. Staff explained daily dishes b based on our interests. Meal was good. Prices 8 to 17€.

We had a lovely evening here, the ambiance was warm and inviting and the food was an excellent example of traditional cuisine. Staff was very friendly, helpful & attentive. Would highly recommend!!
