Gasthaus Reinthaler

We visited this restaurant to try traditional Austrian food, and overall it was a really nice experience. We ordered a pork schnitzel and a sausage (wurst). The portions were big and satisfying. The sausage came with cabbage that had a bit of a unique taste — not something everyone will love, but I personally found it interesting. The sides (salad and potato salad) were fresh, and we also enjoyed some beers with the meal. The line outside was quite long. We came without a reservation and waited around 20-30minutes to be seated. The waiters were polite and everything went smoothly. About the seating: they use a shared-table system. If you’re a couple, they’ll seat you at any larger table where two seats are free, even if other guests are already sitting there. It’s normal for this place, but it can feel a bit unusual if you’re not expecting it. Luckily, we sat next to a lovely older couple, so it turned out fine. If you insist on having your own private table, be prepared to wait a very long time. The atmosphere inside is cozy, traditional, and a bit vintage, which I really liked. Overall, great food and a nice experience! I would definitely suggest making a reservation if you want to avoid the long queue.

Fast delicious food that fills you with whimsy and a touch of happiness. It’s like Oma’s kitchen, she has everything you want and she makes it just how you like it. Great staff, lots of choices and a great beer to wash it all down with. 10/10

Visited during Christmas holidays. Went here for dinner and we were lucky that there was a free table for us. The crowd was big and the place was packed to the brim. I saw lots of locals sitting with their families having a good time. And I’ve really liked the merry atmosphere even if it was so crowded. We ordered two Vienna schnitzels, salads, non alcoholic beer and soda water. Everything was delightful. No complaints, food was delicious, beer good and the service nice without any additional fuss. Definitely would come again whenever I visit! Additional note- maybe it’s best to reserve a table in advance because as we were leaving the restaurant, there were people waiting in line to be seated.

Good, hearty Austrian food. I cant tell you how authentic it is but this place had a very rustic-taverny feel, it felt like i had stepped back in time when I entered. Felt very out of place in Viennas tourist centre (3 minutes from the state opera). I went for the pork schnitzel which needed a good shake of salt and pepper but had a lovely crisp. The waiter allowed me to swap my salad for a potato salad (I had read this was more traditional) which paired really well as it was light and tangy. Overall great food, friendly service and very reasonably priced for the location!

Lovely simple Austrian food. Attentive and helpful service. Understandably popular with locals. The tables are large so be prepared to share with others if you're alone or in a couple - which all adds to the experience. Highly recommend.
