Top 10 Restaurants in Wien

Our editorial restaurant selection for Vienna

Vienna is probably the only city in the world that has given its name to a unique style of cuisine - Viennese cuisine. This is characterised by a mixture of different influences, which is due to its long history as an imperial city. Bohemian, Hungarian and Italian elements have led to a varied and refined cuisine. From hearty dishes such as Wiener Schnitzel and Tafelspitz to sweet delicacies such as Sachertorte and apple strudel, Vienna offers a wide range of culinary experiences. In addition, the "Viennese coffee house culture" is world-famous: excellent coffee, a cosy atmosphere and a large selection of pastries.

By the way, the Gourmet Club of the Restaurant Rankings has often met in Vienna for joint club evenings. If you are interested, you can find our current annual programme here.
