    We ate here a month ago and I thought I left a review but I must have not so here we go: Food was delicious but the best part was Franz the owner. He’s so welcoming and caring. He made our visit even more special. Apparently he just celebrated his 60th and he had some of the bottles of red he had ordered for his birthday left and we were able to drink a wine that is normally 60-80 CHF (for the bottle) by the glass at a very very reasonable price and it was absolutely delicious!! Schnitzel was delicious too, and so was desert. We’ll definitely be back :)

    Great food, great service, great place. The owners and staff were all very nice, and very accommodating of every fancy. I took up their suggestions and am glad to have done so - the food was exquisite, and the accompanying Austrian wines were very accomplished. Even in early spring the place has a summer atmosphere. And outside, the shimmering light on the lake turns quiet to let you enjoy all the shades of light in a delightful and quiet post-meal stroll.

    (Translated by Google) Excellent again today! Super fine eatery, excellent and very varied cuisine. Of course you can enjoy the Emperor's food from the home of Felix, but other fine dishes and daily updates fish and meat can be found on the beautifully designed map. Felix and his team are the perfect hosts. Again and again ..... Also on 04.10.19 we have eaten wonderful again. The fresh porcini mushrooms were like the rest of the food a poem! (Original) Auch heute wieder hervorragend! Super feines Lokal, hervorragende und sehr abwechslungsreiche Küche. Natürlich kann man beim Kaiser Speisen aus der Heimat von Felix geniessen, doch auch andere feine Gerichte und Tagesaktualitäten Fisch und Fleisch sind auf der schön gestalteten Karte zu finden. Felix und sein Team sind die perfekten Gastgeber. Immer wieder ..... Auch am 04.10.19 haben wir wieder wunderbar gegessen. Die frischen Steinpilze waren wie die restlichen Speisen ein Gedicht!

    My wife and I spent our 1 year anniversary here and the food was excellent. From the starter salad to the kürbissuppe, absolute delight. Kartoffelsalat which came with the famous Wienerschnitzel was one of the best I have had. The owner Franz is a sommelier and he is a very very friendly owner. He has immense knowledge with wine and is always ready to make good recommendations. Styrian wine needs no introduction but if you have never had any, this is the place to be. Overall, i would highly recommend this restaurant if you want to eat Austrian, but even better, Styrian dishes in Switzerland.

    My favourite Austrian restaurant in Zug. The owner and his staff are what I consider real hosts. It is even worthwhile to drive from Zurich. And we were here again. What surprise the owner was cooking today and guess - it was super. The staff as always perfect, friendly and efficient. The menu great and the owner so special - a real Gastronom. We would love to duplicate and bring him to Zurich. With the good weather the terrace is a nice place having lake view and as said with the menu and the staff your visit will be magnificent. Ein Servus nach Zug.

    Food was excellent. The decor is what you would expect with a name as such. Excellent and attentive servers. Wish they had some more choices as far as their uniforms go. Together with the Playboy shares posted in the men's room, this gives an indication of where the owner stands on gender equality.

    (Translated by Google) Delicious, great atmosphere, friendly ... we in the country of the emperor. But has its price, for train but probably normal. (Original) Sehr lecker, tolle Atmosphäre, freundlich... wir im Land des Kaisers. Hat aber seine Preis, für Zug vermutlich aber absolutes Normalmass.

    (Translated by Google) Here you can get as well: friendly and fleet upper. As far as I am concerned, my husband and I have already ordered the whole menu up and down. The food was served very fast. The location is knotty easy to reach! The convenient transport links make a jaunt there feasible. I found the bid particularly appealing. Super tasty summarized. (Original) Hier erhält man sowohl als auch: freundliche und flotte Ober. Was mich angeht glaube, mein Mann und ich, haben bereits schon einmal die ganze Speisekarte rauf und herunter bestellt. Das Essen wurde besonders schnell serviert. Die Location ist astrein leicht zu erreichen! Die günstige Verkehrsanbindung macht eine Spritztour dorthin flugs machbar. Ich fand das Gebot besonders ansprechend. Super lecker zusammengefasst.

    Sublime, but pricey Austrian food. Please reserve in advance. I tried walking in multiple times and got turned away really often, therefore I reserved a table. So worth the wait and the sticker shock.

    Big surprise for food quality and freshness. Anniversary dinner with impeccable and very friendly service, another great surprise in Switzerland. The Plum sauce was so good & stunning, they packed it up for me to take with! iRecommend.

  • 5/5 Manuela W. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) From our point of view, a visit is definitely recommended. The things I ordered on the menu were nicely arranged and are always brought warm. The chairs are extremely comfortable and I think the distance between the seats is very adequate. There you don't get the slightest feeling like eating cucumbers in a can. Not only the attentive staff was the absolute bestseller when I visited, but also the good climate. (Original) Aus unserer Sicht ist ein Besuch da durchweg empfehlenswert.Die Sachen was ich auf der Karte bestellt habe waren sympathisch angerichtet und werden jederzeit warm gebracht. Die Stühle sind ausgesprochen bequem und den Abstand zwischen den Plätzen finde ich überaus adäquat. Dort bekommt man keine Spur das Gefühl, wie Gurken in der Dose Abend zu speisen.Nicht nur das aufmerksame Personal war bei meinem Besuch der absolute Bestseller, sondern ebenfalls das gute Klima.

    Nicht nur eine tolle Lage am Zugersee, auch toll ausgestattet mit viel österreichischem Charme. Super netter, schneller und kompetenter Service. Wenn ich jetzt noch vom Essen anfange, werde ich mit dem Schwärmen nicht mehr fertig 😊 Wirklich excellent ❗ Wen die vorbeifahrenden Autos stören, sollte sein Tisch drinnen reservieren. Uns hat es nicht gestört, wir konnten einen tollen Mittagservice geniessen. Grossen Dank an das Team 👍 Wir kommen gern wieder.

    (Translated by Google) This restaurant really has potential to become my new favorite, the decorations on the tables and in the whole place are appropriate and aesthetic. The bathroom is always clean and all in all the restaurant gives a great impression. What I really recommend is the desserts. My boyfriend and I have now been there for the second time and have tried a little something new each time we visit. Really quick and polite service. I think that all the local staff did a good job there. (Original) Dieses Restaurant hat wirklich Potential mein neues Lieblingslokal zu werden.Die Dekos auf den Tischen und im ganzen Lokal ist angemessen und ästhetisch. Das Bad ist immerzu sauber und allem in allem vermittelt das Restaurant einen tollen Eindruck.Was ich echt befürworten kann, sind die Desserts. Mein Freund und ich waren nun zum zweiten Mal dort und haben bei jedem Besuch ein wenig Neues getestet.Wirklich schneller und höflicher Service. Ich finde, dass das ganze Lokal Personal dort einen guten Job gemacht hat.
