Be it the extremely attentive, polite, and courteous service from both the staff and the chef himself. The Italian food at Restaurant Karrussel was delicious and individually delicious. The accompanying wines were so well selected that we immediately ordered some online. And when everyone at the table thought: That was great, it got even better: The planned four courses suddenly became seven courses with three intermediate courses. Before the appetizer, there was a pre-appetizer and a welcome from the kitchen. Instead of dessert, we had two. At the end, we were very full, well-intoxicated, and simply thrilled. We 'll be back!

La Grappa is a great address for lovers of Italian cuisine on the northern edge of the Südviertel district, just a stone's throw from the main train station. The small, quaint restaurant has something of a cabinet of curiosities about it – lovingly chaotic and full of character. The host: a picture-perfect restaurateur. I was there for a business lunch with wine pairing – a great little escape from everyday life. Perfect for anyone who appreciates good food and an authentic atmosphere. Highly recommended for connoisseurs!
