    Vienna restaurants recommendations

    Salzamt (Typical Austrian food, well-prepared)

    Ruprechtsplatz 1, 1010 Wien

    +43 / 1 / 533 533 2

    http://salzamt-wien.at/

    For a good Austrian-style restaurant in first district, Salzamt is next to the Ruprechtskirche (the

    oldest church in Vienna) and has delicious food. It's near the spot where salt arrived and was

    taxed and distributed until the mid-19th century; it's also in one of the oldest parts of the city,

    which was at one time heavily Jewish (the Synagogue is right there as well). Now that area is

    called the Bermuda Triangle because of all the bars -- people vanish there for weeks. But this

    restaurant is lovely, designed by a well-known Austrian architect (Hermann Czech) with typically

    Austrian food, very well prepared.

     

    Schützenhaus (Delicious cuisine and unique decor in fascinating architectural setting)

    Otto Wagner Schützenhaus

    +43 1 21 24 222

    http://www.wienerschuetzenhaus.at/

    For architecture lovers there is a restaurant on the Danube Canal near the Salztorbrücke called

    the Schützenhaus that was designed by Otto Wagner to run the never-completed lock system

    for the canal; it's now a restaurant. It's recently restored, and not entirely satisfactorily so in

    some ways, but it's very attractive, and has plans for the lock system on the walls. The food is

    quite good, the decor is unique, and the location is great. For some reason it doesn't get as

    much traffic as one would expect -- perhaps because the entrance is on the canal itself, not on

    the street.

     

    Cafe Museum (Historical café with fabulous pastries)

    Operngasse 7 A-1010 Wien

    +43 1 24 100-620

    http://www.cafemuseum.at/

    Near the opera the pastries at the Cafe Museum are very nice indeed. The Esterhazy torte is

    one of our favorites. It's in the Operngasse, a block from the opera (and right by the Akademie

    der bildenden Künste, which has a small gallery with a Bosch Last Judgment that is really

    something to see). The cafe was originally designed by Adolf Loos in a style of modernist

    reaction against Jugendstil and ornament; it was then remodeled in a warmer style by a later

    architect. The management tried to restore it to its original Loos appearance, but patrons made

    such an uproar about the austerity of the decor (and, we gather, the hard, wooden seats) that it

    was re-re-redecorated back! A great story and really fabulous pastries.

     

    Unger und Klein (Attractive wine bar with excellent Austrian wines, as well as cheese and

    salami small plates)

    Gölsdorfgasse 2, 1010 Wien

    +43 1 5321323

    http://www.ungerundklein.at/

    For wine lovers, there is an attractive wine bar (they also have cheese and salami small plates)

    called Unger und Klein where you can try some very good Austrian wines. The hills around

    Vienna are full of wineries, and along the Danube out of town the Wachau valley is a big wine

    area. Gruner Veltliner wines are typical of Austria, but there is also a Viennese wine called a

    Gemischter Satz that is quite nice (it's made of a mix of grapes, but they're all grown together on

    a single hill). This wine is pretty particular not only to Austria but to Vienna and Styria, another

    Austrian province. Winery Christ is a local winery that makes very good wines as are Bernreiter

    and Wieninger.
