Austria-Vienna | 4 Must-Try Century-Old Restaurants in Austria

Who said German-speaking countries are culinary wastelands? Hold up—Austria has plenty of century-old eateries worth trying! Vienna is a paradise for meat lovers and those with a sweet tooth! I’ve personally visited four top-tier legendary spots and compiled the latest prices and ordering tips. Follow this guide to avoid any disappointments! 🔥1. The Meat Feast with Breathtaking City Views Name: Restaurant Panorama Must-Try: XXL Mixed Grill Platter (3-4 servings! Beef ribs, pork neck, sausages, chicken wings, and grilled veggies) Price per person: €35-45 (approx. ¥270-350) ✅ The platter is huge! Best shared among 3 people to save money. ✅ Book window seats 3 days in advance on their website—golden Danube views at sunset paired with grilled meat are unforgettable! 🔥2. Century-Old Fried Schnitzel Spot in the 1070 District Name: Wiener Restaurant Address: Hermanagasse 26, 1070 Wien Must-Try: Wiener Schnitzel + Potato Salad 2 Price per person: €20-28 (approx. ¥155-220) 💡 Authentic way to eat: Squeeze lemon juice over the crispy crust and pair with cranberry sauce! 💡 Avoid peak hours! Arrive before 12 PM on weekdays to skip queues. We visited in the afternoon without a reservation—the service was exceptionally friendly, and we finished every last bite! 🔥3. Internet-Famous Juicy Char-Grilled Pork Ribs Name: GRND Vienna Ribs Address: Karntner str 61 Must-Try: Signature Pork Ribs (with spicy BBQ sauce + pickles) 6 Price per person: €25-32 (approx. ¥195-250) 🔥 Pro tip: Order a "Half Rack" of ribs + a side dish—perfect for avoiding waste, especially for women. 🔥 Be there at 16:00 when they open! Arrive 30 minutes late, and you’ll queue for at least an hour! 🚀4. Heavenly Gelato Passed Down Since 1947 Name: Laromana Must-Try: Double-Scoop Cone (Pistachio + Sicilian Strawberry) Price per person: €4-6 (approx. ¥30-50) 🍨 Secret way to enjoy: Add €1.5 for hot chocolate sauce—an epic contrast of hot and cold! 🍨 Bring small change! This old-school spot only accepts cash. 💡 Quick Tips: Portions in Vienna are huge! For two people, one main dish + one side is more than enough. GRND and Panorama require online bookings! Queuing onsite will test your patience. Carry cash! Many old establishments and gelato shops don’t accept cards. Final roar: Don’t overorder! The portions are generally massive, and you really won’t finish it all. #ViennaFood #EuropeanTravelGuide #MustEatInVienna #GRNDRibs #SpeakingUpForWesternCuisine #AuthenticTravelFood #OasisInTheFoodDesert
