Luster Bar

Bar

👍 Very nice place for a relaxed after work night out. Trendy hip bar nicely decorated. Not that much tourists, but maybe better known by locals. Simple menu but with very tasteful food served by friendly service. Mind, that they don't accept payments by card under ten euro. People often mention cocktails, cocktail, nice, night, good, great, drinks, friendly, service, quality,

    My girlfriend and me are very picky with bars and restaurants, and here we discovered the best caipirinha, the best martini and the best negroni we have tried. The service is awesome and professional, very high standard, I mean, even if the drink was made by different guys, the quality is consistent. The quality of the alcohol is also very remarkable. Every time we try something new we are really satisfied with the experience.

    I was asked to make a cocktail using shochu. It was incredibly delicious. The bartender, he has great taste. I will definitely repeat again.

    Hands down one of the most amazing places to spend on a Friday night. After work, pre-drink, or until these sacred halls close their doors. High quality cocktails accompanied by epic sound to give your night out with friends a proper soundtrack. The staff is straight up honest and cater to your every wish. They give you drinks you did not even know you wanted. If you are in town, definitely pass by and start your night out in Viennas night life.

    The ambiance is good, the service too - very nice people working there. But I’m shocked about the quality of cocktails… I got one small cocktail, from the start it didn’t even look good - sort of artificial. I felt unwell already during drinking, it got worse after and I ended up with quite a headache in the morning. Never had that after just one cocktail in a decent place, which looks like this bar! Extremely high price for such a cocktail is another story. I’m fine with paying 13 euros for a good cocktail but not for this one. I see that others left good reviews and photos of their food and drinks look good. Maybe we were just unlucky with a bartender or whatever… We definitely won’t come back and I hope the bar owner will take better care with alcohol quality of the served drinks.

    We came here by chance and we had 2 margaritas, a yuzu spritz and a Mexican standoff. All great cocktails. I'm not a cocktail connoisseur but I've noticed there are always at least 3 flavors well mixed together in the drinks, they felt complex and always enjoyable to drink. Great smells too. The atmosphere is nice and researched but not in an intimidating way. I'd happily do with a different playlist but that's a matter of taste. The personnel was really friendly and the service fast and smooth. For sure we'll come back.

    Very nice cocktail bar with a very wide variety of drinks. One of the pictures is of a son of a sour cocktail which was a standout favorite. The service was very good too, one of the waitresses took care of us all night, had no trouble with explaining the different choices for us. Had a great time and recommend it to everyone visiting Vienna and looking for a nice place to have a drink.

    We went there at 1 AM, when it was just a cocktail bar, and it serves really interesting cocktails. The space is amazing and they pay attention to the number of people they let in, so it is crowded, but never packed so you can't move or talk. We had an enjoyable couple of drinks and ate all of their popcorn. Extra stars for leaving bottles of water and glasses every where, so people don't have to beg for water. This is how you listen to your guests and make it easier on your staff. Great place. One star, since we did not have any food.

    One of the best cocktail bars weve ever been to. Staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. If you have the guts, tell them what you like and let them surprise you with a custom drink, you wont be disappointed!!

    Amazing hand crafted cocktails with complimentary popcorn and savoury drink pairings. Lovely staff and great atmosphere.

    The waiter was rude, the Daiquiri was super expensive for such a small glass and he was even talking about the original recipe of the cocktail thinking he knew better. I didn’t tell him I come from Cuba. Not to mention he directly asked for a tip at the end. Not recommended

    Nothing to say other than go try it out for yourself! Super talented bartenders with a nicely curated menu of cocktails. Their limited food options are also well executed!

    Try Sazerac ... It is better than I expected

  • 5/5 Andy D. 1 year ago on Google
    After visiting other places in Vienna accidentally landed at Luster bar. Was a bit quite at 00:00. But... Barmen Adrian made my night. He made custom cocktails that fited perfectly well to my mood. That was exactly what I needed and exactly what is called a "bar culture" - where you have all-in-one - ambience, great drinks and mood making barmen like Adrian. Would 101% recommend the place. My favorite place from now onwards.

    Good looking place, nice wine. Food not my taste. A little (more) undercooked

  • 5/5 Jeroen D. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice bar. Friendly no nonsense bartenders and service. Good selection and well made cocktails. I do wonder how they reach the bottles on the top shelf.

    Service wad terrible.... cocktails were watered down. Do yourself a favor and go ANYWHERE but here

  • 5/5 Andreea C. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a cocktail bar close to Haus des Meeres. They sport an extensive cocktail list with a lot of house own creations. I had the chance to try two, one was excellent one less so ( not a matter of quality but a matter of personal taste). The bar has a nice ambience, it looks stylish and chill, but be prepared to cuddle because it's not very big and pretty popular. Reservations are not possible. Cocktail prices hover around 13-15 euro. This is a non-smoking place, in summer they have a few outside seats ( terrace closes at 23.00).

😐 The pizza was so good! I’d definitely recommend the place for the people around the area. The atmosphere and the waitress were too nice. The only negative thing about it was the waiting time for someone to come and take my order, and again for someone to bring me the check.
