Absolutely amazing food and ambiance. Chef Kurt Gutenbrunner does not disappoint! Must visit! All our friends were raving about the Easter lunch and great wine list. A beautiful restaurant with large windows and tasteful furnished. The art on the the walls is also noteworthy.
Yummy. All the ordered dishes were great. Highly recommend their signature dishes, short ribs goulash, veal wiener schnitzel, and strudel. Highly recommend. : A
Place is great - staff, food, service, all wonderful. If you’re on the fence remember this has been at Michelin star level for 23 years - the sheer consistent brilliance required to execute that, is unthinkable. The schnitzel is the finest I’ve had & the desert, Salzburg nockerel - DAMN that is delicious. Wonderful experience. Easy 5*
What a treat this was. How Wallse never hit my radar all these years is beyond me. Our meal was amazing - I loved the foie gras terrine with pear gelato and requested extra brioche to finish it! The schnitzel was out of this world and compliment by a perfectly recommended Austrian white wine. I look forward to returning!
I was here for my birthday last night. It’s a very unusual restaurant in the west village. One of the best dining experiences I’ve had in New York for a long time. First of all, if you’re looking for a restaurant with a reasonable noise level, this is a place for you. The staff is very attentive and knowledgeable. All the dishes were outstanding, from the presentation to the quality of the ingredients. I had the smoked salmon as an entree (excellent), and the schnitzel as an entree. We all had the schnitzel: out of this world! So light. My friend had the strudel for dessert (very good) and I had the best dessert of the house: kaierschmarren. TRY IT!!!!
An authentic restaurant with a great interior design. I can tell that the service was above professional. They are so many wine 🍾 options so might want to go there to try them, they also have exotic cocktails with Austrian items. The menu was a little bit confusing to me as a first-time guest but they were helpful to make sure we are not lost. The prices are high so our expectations were excellent seeing and taste the duck was really good and the schnitzel but there were few items in the plate that weren't fresh in fortunately.
There's something romantic about this place and it's a great place for a date.
Very pleasant surprise for me, as I never expected much from Austrian food, but both appetizers and desserts are tasty and creative.
First time, but definitely not last. Diners can splurge with many courses, or pick and choose from many items on menu. While reservations are advised, there are some tables available for walk-ins. Eating at the bar seems to be popular as neighborhood meeting place. Staff was friendly, accommodating and handled all requests with grace and efficiency. Delightful experience!
Outstanding flavors and phenomenonal presentation!
The duck break is extremely flavorful, juicy, and tender. It's cooked perfectly. All of the little garnishes on the plate also taste amazing.
The salmon strudel is very delicious as well. I personally think the duck breast oushone everything! Go get it!
Delicious food! Beautiful presentation!! And impeccable service!
The duck entree was unbelievably delicious! The art decor and background music add so much charm to the ambiance.
All around a wonderful dining experience! Pricey, but to be expected for Michelin rated spot. Expect to spend $250 for 2. And it was worth it!!

We had a very nice brunch here. My soft boiled eggs were delicious, the spätzle nice, not as interesting as they could have been, but well made. Linzertorte was very authentic. My wife had the quinoa salad which was also nice.
The ambiance is inviting and bright. I liked it a lot for a daytime meal. Service fantastic. We really enjoyed our time here very much.
A very nice Austrian themed restaurant owned and run by a Michelin starred chef Kurt Gutenbrunner. Quite democratic prices and decent portions supplemented by a good choice of European wines and biers. Its not my first visit and most definitely not my last. Desserts are heavenly and “palachinken” (delicious crepes with apricot jam) is the jewel of the food crown. Service is quite attentive. There are vegetarian and gluten-free choices
