Casa Mora — Restaurant in Vienna

Casa Mora brings a taste of Colombia to Vienna, offering a cozy atmosphere, warm, welcoming staff, and a menu that, while small, focuses on quality and authenticity. It’s a refreshing alternative to the city’s familiar dining scene, introducing flavors and drinks rarely found elsewhere in Vienna.

Service: both the server and the cook are very nice people and extremely helpful (service-oriented people 👌). This is a very hard feature to find in Vienna.

Ambiance: the Colombian music is the greatest part of the ambiance. Pictures could be changed to show the Colombian beautiful landscape, places, food, people, etc. (At the moment, the place is decorated with...
