Description: This is a small but very popular restaurant. We didn't have reservations and were lucky to get the last table; it was the least desirable being the closest to the kitchen but we were happy to have it. Our waitress and the hostess were both very friendly and between the two of them were able to help us to understand the specials. They had one menu in English which we shared.
For an appetizer we had a plate with a sample of all their appetizers. These included bread and cheese dumplings with walnuts and scalloped cabbage and artichokes. We were given a bread basket with homemade warm rye and white bread.
Our salad course was wonderful with a variety of field greens, yellow peppers and cherry tomatoes all covered with an excellant balsamic vinigrette. For my main course I ordered lamb chops which were four of the most tender and flavorful chops I've ever had. They were arranged on a bed of homemade fettucini and whole baby carrots and an onion that looked like a large scallion.
One of the others in our group had a half of a roasted chicken done with rosemary and artichokes au gratin. My husband had weiner schnitzel and parsley potatoes. Everyone raved about the food.
For dessert I had white chocolate mocha mousse which was presented beautifully with cinnamon and powdered sugar. The other dessert we tried was mango parfait.
This is a first class dining experience. The cost was about $30 a person. I would eat here again and if you are in Vienna I would recommend that you give it a try. But remember we almost didn't get a table in January without a reservation so I recommend you book as much in advance as you can, the quality of the food here is no secret with the locals.
