About

Old Vienna is a beloved local spot known for its authentic Austrian cuisine and the charismatic owner, Werner. Most diners rave about the high-quality, flavorful dishes like lobster ravioli and schnitzel. While the service is generally praised for being warm and personal, a few guests have noted long wait times and inconsistent portion sizes. It is a small, intimate venue that feels like a home-cooked experience. Booking well in advance is essential to secure a table.
