    I had the best vegetarian burger of my life there. It was such a rich, creative and non-conventional combination that impressed me (I usually don’t order burgers since they tend to be the same). Besides that, the view and the atmosphere were amazing. Can’t wait to go back and try the new options.

    Aaron made this experience one of the best we have had in all of Europe. This is a 10/10 on all fronts; food, service, atmosphere. Make sure to ask for Aaron and make this a must stop on your trip in vienna

    Nice surprise spot to have brunch/lunch at the top of the library building. Food was correct for the price but nothing fancy. Service was very nice and quick. Would go back but would try some other dishes.

    Came here for a Saturday late breakfast. The place was really quiet. There are cute tables outside, lot of shade provided by sun umbrellas, cool ambiance. I got the vegan breakfast, my bf got a salad and a side of chips. Really creative, fresh food, extra points for enticing presentation! The service was really nice too, always a plus in Vienna!

    The panoramic views of this restaurant brought us here. The waiter was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. He helped us chosing a special Viennese beer, it was fabulous. Then we had the Miso creme brulee topped with peppercorns which pleasured our taste buds as never before. Highly recommended and say a hi to the waiter for us if you find this review helpful.

    Went there for brunch on a sunny and hot sunday. The brunch buffet was ok, a bit crowded, food was good, but the service not so much. Since it was a hot day, I wanted a bigger glass for my water instead of the small ones from the buffet (it's just more comfortable to get a bigger glass in summer instead of having to run to the buffet multiple times just to refill it with water) So I asked the waitress if it was possible to get a large glass. She said it was not possible to give me a bigger glass because otherwise everyone else would want one (or order a large tap water?) and they don't have enoug large sized glasses for everyone (uhm ok?) and that's just included in the buffet so that's what I get. If it's the policy then I kind of understand this, but just from the customer standpoint it's really unflexible and not rational. I'm already paying for the buffet which includes the water there, I'm just asking for a bigger glass so I don't have to get up and refill my glass every 5 minutes (in summer). The glasses provided at the buffet are really small, like the small ones you get when you order coffee, so not even 0,25L.

    AMAZING place for a Sunday brunch! Open buffet for 29,90€. Everything super tasty and good. Although, I suggest to put a label near the plates, it was difficult for me to understand which were the vegan option and I always had to ask. During the summer there's a nice terrace and also a nice view :) I recommend to book online.

    Amazing food. Tried the Backhendl Salat and the schroomsmoker the taste was very good frisch, delicious and organic. Friendly staff. Nice view over vienna.

    Our family of 5 came here for brunch and all enjoyed our food so much - it was definitely a highlight meal on our trip! Not touristy (which is always nice) and the views of Vienna from the restaurant are unique. Definitely recommend.

    Very good quality, value lunch menu, polite staff and quiet location.

  • 5/5 Iris S. 4 years ago on Google
    Great place with nice kitchen and wonderful view through the city. We order business lunch which included salad and chicken curry. It was well cooked and served quite fast Will definitely recommend it for all my friends.

  • 4/5 Stefan L. 4 years ago on Google
    Great location on top of the city’s library. Good choices of various breakfast combos at great value. One star reduction because the coffee was quite bad - please adjust your coffee, grinder and machine setup.

    My friend and I came for the brunch, which includes buffet, one hot drink and one glass of Prosecco or beer (plus non-alcoholic alternatives) and costs 29€. The buffet includes a variety of salads, two warm main dishes as well as crepes, and a variety of cheese and ham. The waiter also did some rounds were he offered scrambled and soft-boiled eggs. There were only two kinds of bread, and I would have preferred to have some more options. Since I'm a little bit picky in this regard, I noticed that not all plates as well as the cutlery were perfectly clean, which was the biggest minus for me personally. Besides I should mention that the food was very fresh and got replaced several times. All in all it's definitely a nice option for brunch, also the staff was really really friendly but you should not expect something too fancy.

    Tucked away above a library, this spot has some nice interior vibes. The prices won't totally wreck your budget - pretty much what you'd expect for a meal in a restaurant like this. And let's not forget, the drinks here are lit. So, I rolled up and decided to go for the classic steak. But: the fries were a total letdown, lacking that essential crunch and going a bit overboard on the salt. And the steak? Well, it was kind of a dry spell. Honestly, if you're all about the aesthetic and up for some nice drinks, this place is a vibe. But when it comes to the food, it might be worth looking elsewhere.

    Great place, however, DO NOT COME WITHOUT PRIOR RESERVATION. The capacities are 100% full on weekends. The website says "visit us if you didn't reserve anyway" - no

    The waiter was really nice and attentive. It has a great view. The hamburger classic was tasty. The not so good thing was the air conditioning... It was so hot inside and the AC wasn't working
