"Palatschinke" is the austrian name for pancake and in this restaurant you get a really wide choice of them, including one of the best "Kaiserschmarren" I ever had. This restaurant is in the very centre of Vienna, in a side-street without car-trafic and it also has tables in the street during summer !! There are 2 entrances to that restaurant : one in Koellnerhofgasse and one in Grashofgasse4 All dishes are explained in English and French as well ! The restaurant is open daily 10.00a.m.-00.00 midnight 10 minutes of Free internet for each guest !! ask for the internet-coin at the kitchen !!
Palatschinkenpfandl has a large choice of dishes, including 6-8 "Tagesmenues" with a main course + the choice of one of 5 deserts or 5 types of soup and of course you may get it also with soup+desert. Take a look at my pictures : I had a delicious pumkin-soup first (without pic) then a pan full of roasted potatoes, fried turkey&chicken & salad and for desert I had 2 pancakes, filled with sweet chestnuts and chocolate-topping. Such a "Tagesmenu" is 10,50 Euros , when you choose any soup OR desert with it ! When you choose desert PLUS soup, you pay just 12 Euros. Kaiserschmarren is my favorite meal, it is some sort of "thick pancake" with raisins and cut into small pieces - I had mine with "Zwetschken-roester" (thick plum-stew) for 7 Euros - see my main picture ! They have a total of 8 different "Kaiserschmarren" : with apples, cinnamon, poppy-seeds etc.etc.etc. For drinks you may get also Milk, milkshakes, yoghurt and some great austrian wines in addition to the ordinary soft-drinks and beers.

 | |  |  | typical Austrian specialities: Serves one of the Best Austrian Food in Vienna | Tip Rating:     Satisfaction:      |  |  | |  |
I never did like Austrian food until I was brought to this Restaurant by my date. In the past, I find austrian food to be too rich, greasy and too salty. However, Waldviertlerhof changed my mind forever about real austrian food. For the first time since coming to Vienna, I finally had some really good austrian food. It is neither too greasy, rich or salty. The portions were generous and large. The salads were fresh and crisp. The meat was excellent and the austrian wines were wonderful. The desserts were sinfully delicious. I was told that majority of the food served in this austrian restaurant comes from the Waldviertler region of Austria, where the food is of good quality and farm-fresh. As for the prices, it was not expensive at all. For Euro 12, you can get a large full meal including drinks. The restaurant is large, warm and cosy, with typical austrian country decor and pine wooden furnitures. When I enter the restaurant, I forgot that I am in the middle of a city. The place is lively and busy with local patrons, happily drinking beer and wines, and chatting animatedly and loudly. It's like being in the country-side. All the staffs wore typical austrian costume/outfits. The service is good and quick; the waiters are nice and friendly. Some of them can speak English. If you go in Summer, you can sit in the outdoor summer garden, where you will be eating under a huge shady tree. This restaurant is popular amongst the locals/viennese, so if you plan to have dinner there, better if you call ahead and make reservations. The restaurant is not open on Saturday and Sunday.
You must try the Toscana Schnitzel. Very different than the typical Wiener schnitzel, and very delicious. If you are not very hungry, try the Chicken Salad. You can have either fried chicken strips or grilled chicken strips with the green salad. It will be dressed with pumpkin-seed oil, and taste so good and healthy. For dessert, you must try the eispalatschinken or pancakes (crepes) with vanilla ice and chocolate fudge. Mmmmm... so yummy!

 | |  |  | typical Austrian specialities: Must experience the Marchfelderhof's warmth! | Tip Rating:     Satisfaction:      |  |  | |  |
Marchfelderhof is a famous austrian restaurant located in Deutsch-Wagram, an area outside of Vienna. The interior of the restaurant is very unique - you will see so many autographed pictures & photos of celebrities and VIPs covering all the walls; on the ceilings, you can see many kinds of interesting objects such as old violins, banjo, tambourines, drums, cooking pots and pans, masks, shaded lamps; the wood panels around the tables have metal plagues mentioning VIPs who have sat there; You will be seated in a private booth surrounded with lacy curtains, odd objects, antique lamps on your tables, and stuffed pillow on your chairs. You will get free snacks for starters (which was great for me!). The service was good and courteous, although a bit slow. But then, you are there to enjoy the ambience and the surroundings, so the waiters do not wish to intrude too often.
One of my favorite dishes was the fried veal cutlet (schnitzel) covered in pumpkin-seed batter and serve with gnocchi potatoes and vegetables. During asparagus season, the restaurant also serve locally-grown white asparagus, steamed, with hollander sauce. Most of the food were delicious.
