Volksgarten Pavillon — Restaurant in Vienna

Check your reciepts.

We had lunch here after some museum-hopping since the park looked absolutely beautiful. We got served quite quickly and ordered the club sandwich the pasta and some local wine. The prices were pretty steep but you pay for the location. The wine was great but the Chicken was raw.(!) We sent it back and they re-fried it and after that it was a decent club sandwich. The pasta was super salty and my wife couldn't eat it so we swapped dishes.

Afterwards we told the waiter we weren't really happy getting raw chicken which is pretty awful and overly salty food and he shrugged and said he'd tell the kitchen. Nothing happened.

There was a commotion nearby with insanely loud music and two hellicopters circling overhead. We asked the Waiter what it was and he told us it was a LGBT-feastival

When asked for the check, the allready expensive prices didn't add up so we peeked at the reciept. Turns out the waiter decided he deserved a five euro tip after serving us raw chicken. That without telling us and possibly expecting even more tips. It's not about the five euros it was the fact that he hid that and added it to the total sum that didn't sit right with us. We demanded the tip back and the other waiters looked shocked.

He most likely has made a system of this so check the reciepts so you don't tip twice.

The LGBT festival turned out to be the wings for life race with 13.000 participants running just next to...

...one of the best culinary experiences I've had while traveling. What started as a simple recommendation from a waiter, when I asked "What's good?!" , a presentation of a dish that is not in the menu, made only for today...ended up to be one of the most interesting combinations ever tried, and, to top it, the complementary desert was even better. Met the chef, a 20-smth, 2 m tall, 60kg guy, cap turned around, dirty apron, and a big smile while explaining what he put in the wine sauce that made everything perfect on that plate. Congrats, whoever and wherever you end up to be, making people feel good, and all the best on your journey down this road...

Somehow this place manages to f up every single event that is happaning in there. -Sound system is not good. -The drinks are extremely overpriced. -The staff is unbelieveably rude. Last sunday at the "Sonntag ohne techno" event, the bartender proceeded to mix us 3 aperol spritz, where he put literally drops of aperol and drops of wine in it.And than he was DEMANDING tips. We ordered french fries:the size, is when you take a handful a of fries, put it in the oven and later pick out the burned ones amd you end up with 12 very slim little fries.Its the worst quality you can imagine and it costs 7 euroes. Never again...
