The best Viennese restaurants: culinary treasures to discover!
Vienna and its host culture – they simply belong together! The Viennese are particularly fond of the small, traditional pubs. From rustic to modern options, the selection is spread across the city and offers something to suit every palate. So if you want to look for new culinary experiences, we have put together the crème de la crème of Viennese restaurants here.
Let's start with the **Edel-Beisl**, located at Braunhubergasse 6 in the 11th district. Peter Zinter serves upscale tavern cuisine at the stove and offers an extensive wine list that perfectly complements the food. Here you can enjoy selected dishes from Wednesday to Saturday from 5:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. If you would like to find out more, you can find out more on the Edel-Beisl website or make a reservation by calling 01 7493370.
Modern cafes on trend
There is a completely new concept in **Reznicek**, a modern pub that was only opened in 2022 by sommelier Simon Schubert and chef Julian Lechner. Here the traditional cordon bleu with mountain cheese and ham becomes a real treat. The Reznicek can be found at Reznicekgasse 10 and is open from Tuesday to Saturday - you can feast here until 1 a.m.! The Reznicek website provides further details and the telephone number is 01 3104407.
A true classic among the pubs is the **Grünauer**. Here you will find consistent, upscale tavern cuisine in an inviting ambience at Hermanngasse 32. From Monday to Friday, guests can stop in between 6 p.m. and midnight. The Grünauer website offers an overview of the menu, and reservations can be made by calling 01 5264080.
Variety from creative to traditional
The **Jagetsberger** is one of the new Beisln that serves creative cuisine that goes beyond traditional Viennese Beisl cuisine. Manuel Jagetsberger and Anna Pawlik have created a place at Märzstrasse 87 that delights guests from Tuesday to Friday from 5:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. More information is available on the Jagetsberger website or on 0699 10620026.
Also not to be forgotten is the **Schreiner**, which not only offers a typical Beisl ambience with a beautiful garden, but also Mediterranean influences on the menu.

And to make a reservation, just call 0676 4754060.
A place with history: Rosnowsky
When we talk about Beisln, we can't forget the **Rosnowsky**. This authentic Viennese pub has existed since 1823 and combines traditional interiors with modern flair. Owner Mladen took over the restaurant two years ago and offers dishes such as beef tartare, Wiener schnitzel and beef roulade. In the hidden guest garden you can unwind in the summer. You can enjoy the food Monday to Sunday from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Further information can be found on the Rosnowsky website.
These pubs are more than just restaurants; they are a piece of Viennese culture. The word “Beisl” itself has deep ecological roots and is often not understood outside of Vienna. It is a place for togetherness and conviviality, where good food and drink are very important. There are many other pubs that are worth visiting, and the cultural significance of these places should not be underestimated.
If you've now whetted your appetite for Viennese beisl culture, you should go on a journey of discovery and enjoy the diverse, creative and traditional dishes in these charming restaurants!
