An unforgettable Viennese experience at Griechenbeisl! ✨ Visiting Griechenbeisl was like stepping into a living piece of history! The atmosphere is absolutely magical — cozy, authentic, and full of old-world charm. You can literally feel the centuries of stories within those walls. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making the whole experience even more special. The food was simply outstanding — perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and full of traditional Austrian flavors. Every bite felt like a celebration of Viennese culture. I especially loved how the restaurant combines elegance with a truly homey feeling — it’s the kind of place you never want to leave. If you’re in Vienna and want to experience the heart and soul of the city, Griechenbeisl is an absolute must! I left with a big smile and a heart full of joy. ❤️ it’s an experience to dine in this heritage preserved-building! the location is in the middle of the city, easy to reach. the food is amazing —we ordered the goulash, the duck and pumpkin soup. the service is fast. will recommend people to at least go here one time while visiting Vienna We came across this restaurant and decided to stop due to the location. Best decision ever. The service was amazing, and the food was divine. When the waiter said, "See you tomorrow," we thought, why not. There was another dish we saw coming out we really wanted to try. It did not disappoint. In fact, it turned out to be one of the very best meals we have had on our European trip so far. The crispy pork for 2 was amazing. And the accompanying dishing compliment it perfectly. 10 out of 10. And the staff were fantastic. Hope we get one more chance to dine there before moving on.

Definitely the best Wiener Schnitzel! I highly recommend it and suggest adding this place to your “must-visit” list. The service was perfect, and the atmosphere is classic and wonderful. I have no negative comments — everything was excellent. You won’t regret it!

Great spot! People here is nice, food comes really fast and loved it. Tried the Tafelspitz and the Sacher Cake. The Tafelspitz was super delicious, got the recommendation from a blog in Tripadvisor and gave ot a try, yup, worth it. The Sacher cake is not my favorite because is like a compacted "dry cake" and I dont lile these cakes much, but wanted to try it and the flavour is good actually, a good mix of chocolate and apricot jelly inside. The place is beautiful, you can see is a really old location.
