New hotspot in Vienna: Xpedit impresses with innovative dishes!
The Viennese gastronomy landscape has an exciting new opening to offer. Today, November 6, 2025, the iconic Xpedit restaurant, previously known as Expedit, opened its doors in a former warehouse near the Danube Canal. Operator Ivana Markovic and chef Ismael Faye, both under 30, bring a breath of fresh air to the Viennese food scene and rely on a creative culinary concept that puts “sharing dishes” at the forefront.
Ismael Faye, who has already cooked in renowned restaurants such as Villa Joya in Portugal and the Dogenhof in Vienna, has put together a menu that delights with natural ingredients and innovative combinations. The plates include pumpkin with hemp seeds and broccoli flowers, venison carpaccio with ringlet paste and black garlic, and rigatoni with basil pesto and walnuts. The motto of the new Xpedit edition, “nature to table – Italian inspired – produce driven”, shows a deep connection to nature and the ingredients used, which can be found directly on the menu – including information about the producers.
Transparency and regionality
Xpedit not only focuses on taste, but also on transparency. A new kitchen window was installed, which gives guests a view into the kitchen. In addition, the various suppliers are explicitly referred to in order to raise awareness of regional products. An example of this is the fine char from Schwarzau im Gebirge, which at around 400 grams is just the right portion for sharing with friends.
The wine selection at Xpedit is also a delight. Mainly local and selected Italian wines are offered here, which match the variety of dishes and make the visit an all-round successful experience.
Welcoming atmosphere
The interior was redesigned with great attention to detail. Original elements of the former warehouse were retained without creating the impression of excessive luxury. An inviting, casual atmosphere is created that is suitable for both a relaxed dinner and social evenings.
