Absolutely amazing. Decent meal with nice, cozy ambient and excellent service. The price of the meal isn’t too high, actually it is very valuable. We come in 5 people but order 4 meal and 1 soup, staff quickly suggested that these could be enough for us and offer the share dish for us, it was really considerate. They keep asking whether we would want anything else or are we enjoying our meal. Steak was great. Not the best but totally acceptable. The side dish is delicious and perfectly goes together with the main course too. Sausage and fish is good, I personally like how they fried, it wasn’t coated with too much flour so the fish was still juicy and tender. Lamb was good, but would prefer it much when it wasn’t deep fried. However, turn out to be that the Garlic soup was the best. It was creamy and so rich in texture. The smell of garlic was so nice, totally it was so flavorful. And it was only around 4.50-4.99 euro per dish. All in all, a very nice restaurant. Fantastic atmosphere. Ans we really enjoyed the meal.

This restaurant appears on many food lists for good reason. While it has a slightly touristy vibe, it’s also a spot where locals come to enjoy a meal. The cuisine is classic Bavarian fare, with some tweaks to make it more accessible to international palates. The service was excellent. A group of friends and I showed up without a reservation, and we were informed that they could seat us but would need to turn the table in about 45 minutes for a reserved group. However, after our order was taken, it took around 30 minutes for the food to arrive. Noticing something might be amiss, one of the waitresses checked in with us. When we explained the situation, she empathised and assured us she’d see what she could do. A short while later, she returned with a warm smile and said, “All is good. Please enjoy your dinner.” That simple gesture elevated the experience all around. The food was not only comforting to our bellies but also to our hearts, knowing everything worked out.

I came here after a recommendation and I am very disappointed with my experience with this restaurant. The food was good and the customer service was decent up to a point. When I went to pay the bill at the end I noticed that I was being charged for tap water. I had asked for tap water because I didn’t want to pay for mineral water that they offer. On the menu it specifically says if you order “something else” that you don’t have to pay for water. I did order something else- I ordered two entrées. I spoke with the manager and he said there’s nothing he could do and by ordering “something else” it means by ordering “a different drink.” The menu was not clear, and they could’ve been accommodating and understanding that the menu didn’t reflect what they meant. He told me that it was his bosses rules and he couldn’t change anything. Because of this I would not recommend going to this restaurant due to the poor customer service I received on something that was their fault because of their miscommunication. There is no such thing as pleasing a customer or “the customer is always right” here. They took absolutely no responsibility for the errors made on their part. I will not be returning here and wouldn’t suggest you go if you care to have good service.

This famous traditional Austrian restaurant has been around since the 17th century. After reading the multiple positive reviews of this establishment, I decided to make this my 1st choice for Austrian food during my trip to the country. I did not reserve a table and had no trouble finding a spot. A reservation can easily be made via the restaurant website. It might be a good idea to reserve if visiting during the evening / weekend. The server was courteous and professional. No language barrier whatsoever as English is widely spoken. Looking for an authentic and delicious Wiener Schnitzel? Look no further. The schnitzel came with parsley potatoes and cranberries. It all tasted wonderful. The Austrian beer (Augustiner Weissbier) was very good as well. I ordered the classic Austrian dessert of Apple Strudel. It did not disappoint. My meal was so good that I decided to revisit the place again. As with my 1st visit, the 2nd visit was also excellent.

We really enjoy our lunch at the Barenwirt this weekend. They were kind enough to find us a table even without a reservation. The place was extremely busy, partly because of the really grotty weather (rain and super cold, all weekend long...). They also allowed our Golden Retriever girl in, which was so good. She was cold and wet, and wanted to climb on the bench next to me, to curl up against my leg - which she did - and the server didn't tell us off. Thank you! The place is famous for their deep-fried chicken, which is simply to die for! We also enjoyed the potato salad (very Austrian, very well balanced between tart and salty). But it was their Kaiserschmarrn that stole our son's heart :) Lots of caramelised sugar, fluffiest pancake, and served with a very delicious plum jam ... so yummy! The atmosphere is very warm and cozy, the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy the day, and partake of their lovely cooking. We would gladly return.

Anspruch und Wirklichkeit, der Abstieg eines guten Restaurants (Besuch am 24.09.24 von 17 bis 18:30 Uhr): Eigentlich hätte ich zwei Sterne gegeben, jedoch sollte das Gesamtergebnis „aktuelle Bewertung über 4 Sterne“ mal relativiert werden. Vorgeschichte: Ich war vor 3 Jahren dort und musste sagen, dass ich beim Bärenwirt einen sehr guten Kaiserschmarrn (siehe Bild 3) gegessen hatte, weswegen ich unbedingt wieder dort hingehen wollte. Doch das Resultat (siehe Bilder 1 und 2) ist wie folgt auszudrücken: Desolat! Ich glaube, dass ich zu den Bildern nicht viel mehr sagen muss. Jeder, der einen sehr guten Kaiserschmarrn zu würdigen schätzt, lässt einfach die Finger davon! Ich habe dann dem Kellner die Bilder (siehe 1-3) beim Bezahlen gezeigt. Der scheinte wenig überrascht gewesen zu sein und meinte, dass es immer noch dasselbe Küchenteam wie vor 3 Jahren sei und er es an dieses weitergeben würde. Mein Fazit zum Kaiserschmarrn vom Bärenwirt: Wer, und laut Kellner dasselbe Küchenteam, vor drei Jahren einen so guten Kaiserschmarrn gemacht hat, nun aber jetzt das dem Gast kredenzt, der hat auf diesen keinen Bock mehr und muss sich dann eine so schlechte Bewertung gefallen lassen! Zu den anderen Gerichten: Wir hatten noch den Bierschopfbratl (Masse statt Klasse) und das 1/2 Backhendl (erinnert irgendwie an die Gerichte vom Wienerwald). Diese waren ok. Mehr aber auch nicht. Gute Österreichische Küche sieht anders aus! Weiteres unter meinem Gesamtfazit! Service: War dienstleistungsorientiert. Wir hatten zudem eine Zeitslot von 17:15 - 19 Uhr. Ist schon irgendwie Systemgastronomie… Ambiente: Naja, um uns saßen im Raum (1. OG) 90 % nicht Deutschsprachige. Ich sag mal besser nichts dazu! Da wären wir besser ums Eck in den Biergarten beim Augustiner-Bräu gegangen. Gesamtfazit: Ich gehe gerne essen und wenn es gut ist, zahle ich auch gerne den (höheren) Preis dafür! Der Bärenwirt lebt vielleicht noch von seinem guten Ruf, den ich selbst ja auch vor drei Jahren genießen durfte. Wer aber mittlerweile untere Mittelklasse (Übrige Gerichte) bzw. katastrophale Gerichte (Kaiserschmarrn), was jeder mit der Fertigmischung von Dr. Oetker um Welten besser hinbekommt, anbietet, der darf sich am Ende des Tages auch nicht beschweren, wenn der Gast eine wirklich schlechte Bewertung schreibt! Genießer und Menschen, die gute österreichische Küche zu würdigen wissen und u.a. deswegen nach Österreich kommen, sollten einen ganz, ganz, ganz großen Bogen um den Bärenwirt machen! Wer gerne mit reinen Touris zusammensitzen möchte und nicht viel Wert auf gutes Essen legt, der kann dort gerne hingehen! Ich hab mich aber geärgert, dorthin gegangen zu sein 🙈🙉🙊
