It was my first time at Figlmueller even though I've been to Vienna many times and I can only say the schnitzel was fabulous! We made reservations since the restaurant gets really crowded and after we arrived at Noon, the place got really crowded. The decor was simple, but comfortable, the service was fine, the waiter was attentive enough and... More

With so many people - both tourists and apparently locals - querying up on the outside, you would expect something worthwhile on the inside. And there is. The schnitzel is several steps ahead of any competitor we have tested (simple but tasty, add the recommended side orders), and the service good, queues notwithstanding.

Came here with my wife in May. First, make sure that you make a reservation. It took us a couple night to get in. The interior/atmosphere is basic. The service is also basic. However, you come for the schnitzel (along with every other tourist in Vienna). The schnitzel was solid and, it does seem that this is basically where you... More

The Winerschnitzel was as big as the plate! It was very thin and perfectly breaded, incredible. Even if the "Figlmüller" an absolute tourist attraction is, you should go once there and try their schnitzel, it is exactly the way a Wienerschnitzel should taste, and please order it with potato salad, and nothing else. Enjoy!

Excelente restaurante tradicional de comida alemã. Há dois restaurantes da mesma rede, um ao lado do outro. Um mais antigo outro mais recente, maior, com mais possibilidade de atendimento. Ambos cheios, porém fomos atendidos rapidamente. Um garçon muito simpatico. Comemos a especialidade da casa, schnitzel. Incrível! Fartíssimo! Fomos duas vezes! Excellent restaurant traditional German food. There are two restaurants in... More

The food and service here were great, and definitely worth a visit. The potato salad to accompany the schnitzel was particularly good. We had to queue for around 10 minutes though, arriving at around 5.15pm on Saturday evening. By the time we left, at around 6.30pm, the queue was about 30 people long! Try timing your visit here to avoid... More

This is a very famous restaurant, too close to St. Stephan's Dome. The only thing that matters is that you might have to wait for a free table more than half an hour. Anyway, it really worth it!!!I have been there twice during my stay in Vienna. I tasted different dishes and beers and all of them were excellent. I... More
