Schutzhaus Meidling — Restaurant in Vienna

This is a true hidden gem of authentic, home cooked Viennese food. It's tucked away in a business district so most tourists would never come across it but it's definitely worth the trip.

My experience here was so cute and lovely. We sat outside and the lady came to get our drink order. I asked for the homemade lemonade, which she said they were regretfully out of. Ah ha! That's a good sign, I thought, that means it's made fresh and so must everything else be. I asked if they had some other sort of non alcoholic drink and she offered to make me the house special, a combination of pumpkin, carrot and beer. Always one to try something new I said yes. A few minutes later she came by to apologize that the juicer was behaving badly and they wouldn't be able to make the drink. She offered me a soda with lemon squeezed in. As I was about to say yes, the chef came out and scolded her lightly for giving up so easily, they were fixing the machine and the juice would be out shortly. OK then! A short while later she came out with the soda and lemon, having given up on the juicer. Now you might think that this would have put me off the restaurant by now, in fact, quite the opposite. Her charming demeanor, the whole interaction between her, the chef and myself was so much like a Monty Python skit that I was absolutely loving it.

I ordered a schnitzel with mushroom sauce and when it arrived I dug in with gusto. It was very, very good. Simple, well cooked with a wonderful creamy mushroom sauce and home cut fries that were perfectly golden and crispy.

The whole experience was so pleasant, the food delicious, the ambiance and setting perfect for an afternoon lunch.

I cannot recommend this place highly enough, if you happen to be in the area, you absolutely must try them!

If you liked my review please give me a thumbs up👍🏾 and follow me for more honest...

Lovely place where you can not only sit inside the restaurant but also you can seat outside and enjoy the fresh air and beautiful plants while eating. When visiting traditional Austrian restaurant I never have much expectations with finding vegan options, but to my surprise they had two! Both homemade and incredibly tasty! The service is also...

Optisch betrachtet ein typisches Schutzhaus in unmittelbarer Nähe zur Bushaltestelle Am Europlatz, Linie 7A und 15A. Im Vergleich untypisch ist jedoch die Vielfalt bei den Speisen, welche hier geboten werden. Aber der Reihe nach. Murauer Bier vom Faß in der Karte, abgesehen vom Hauswein jeweils 2 bis 3 Sorten Wein in weiß und in rot. Wie bereits kurz angeführt, die Auswahl an Speisen ist recht groß und konzentriert sich auf die klassische Österreichische Küche. Täglich zwei Mittagsmenüs von Montag bis Freitag bis 14.00 Uhr verfügbar. Außerdem bietet die Speisekarte 8 fleischlose Alternativen und 3 verschiedene Burger (einer davon in Veggie Style), was erfreulicherweise für Abwechslung sorgt. Die Griesnockerlsuppe schmeckte jedenfalls sehr gut. Selbiges gilt für den Grillteller. 3 verschiedene Fleischsorten wurden perfekt zubereitet - ungewöhnlich knusprig (und gut) waren dabei die Pommes. Das Personal vermittelt einen netten und freundlichen Eindruck....
