 | Vienna Figlmüller Reviews | 1 - 10 of 22 |  |
The Figlmüller seems to be on everyones lips when they are regailing you with tales of thier first culinary march through the centre of Vienna but I must say, I do wonder why. It serves local dishes - well, one in particular! - and it's certainly touristy, though I wouldn't condemn it for that. No, what it's REALLY famous for, is the size of its schnitzels. There must be photolab technicians all over the world ready to slash their wrists if another snap of a tourist pointing to a stupendously enormous plateful of flattened breadcrumbs hoves into view.
I hate to say it but, as my dear wife says, size isn't everything! Food should surely be judged on taste on quality rather than size...or am I preaching to a world totally won over by the mystifying allure of the Big Mac? If you want to taste meat with your breadcrumbs you'd do better going elsewhere; the Landtmann for example. Or stay put at the Figlmüller and ordering one 'natürlich'. On the other hand, if you really really do want that extraordinary photo...
I believe the schnitzel is almost compulsory. Sit between two other tables that have ordered one and you could almost share theirs without paying!

 A nice bulding across the
Albertina Museum. by Caniko
Until I saw that big snitzel plate, I was thinking that people are stingy since they order one snitzel for 2.
Good service and good food and reasonable prices.

It is a rather popular place to eat especially the ultra humungous Wiener Schnitzel.
They have several branches, we went to the one at Backerai Strasse, very close to the St Stephans Cathedral.

 scnitzels and salad and calf
liver by Audrey118
I odered the pork chop with potato salad accompaniment - euro 14 while Sharrie had a calf liver with roasti spuds euro 11, and after that both of us dived into desserts...she had cheese dumplings with poached apricot and I had hazelnut parfait...both very rich but awesome.
The total bill came up to45 euro.
quiant looking restauratn, lots of dark wood finishing with some black board menu, and a modern lamp shade above.
as the evening was rather warm, we sat by the windows with passerbys gazing into our dinner!!! Leave a Comment

 a genuine figlmüller-schnitzel by WStat
Figlmueller's is either in Wollzeile-street #5, first district or Baeckerstrasse #6
also 1st district. Have a look at the website and map and find telephone numbers at
http://www.figlmueller.at/
The "original" Wiener Schnitzel: it is made of VEAL (!), but also available (not really original) of pork and NEVER (!!!) served with any kind of juice, like sometimes in the UK or Germany . It goes usually with potatoe-salad .

Figlmüller is probably one of the most famous places to buy great Austrian food, but it has such a good reputation for a reason.
The thing that struck me the most about Figlmüller was its cosy atmosphere. It wasn’t a huge place, but being so close to everyone else made it feel quite homely and welcoming. It is a family run business and I think that shows quite clearly in the atmosphere they create. (They have been open since 1905!)
The food was fantastic, as it was by far the best Schnitzel I had whilst in Vienna (And I went to quite a few different places). To begin with the value for money was very food as the Schnitzel was enormous and very tasty. The service was also very fast and good, our waiter was a really friendly Austrian gentleman and he made us all feel very welcome.
I can highly recommend visiting this restaurant, I have even made a reservation again for later this year myself!

Even if we knew that the local "schnitzel" would be different here, the surprise was total. And pleasant!
Don't miss it...
If you want to go there, I would recommend you to make a reservation. It uses to be very busy during the lunchtime.

Oh my god, I don't know how someone can enter this restaurant, aren't u irritated by the smell? Sorry but I don't know any locals who would ever go there to eat...the biggest tourist trap !!!
Ok, the Schnitzel is big, but so what..do u cook at home with old oil ( thats exactly the smell at Figlmüller)
Never would eat something there! I am local I should know! Theme: German/AustrianComparison: more expensive than averageAddress: next to Wollzeile, Bäckerstraße

 Food by TinKan
Not much in the way of other options so you need to like schnitzels.
Schnitzels what else?
And try the roast potatoes with a mixed salad.
There is no beer and no coffee so just drink the wine. It is good wine.
