Best Street Food Restaurants in Graz
The large selection of bread rolls is already legendary, accompanied by a freshly tapped Pfiff beer, a glass of house prosecco or sparkling wine - simply perfect! Small desserts round off the package. The aperitivo cocktail bar Ciccio is the perfect place to round off the day. An icon in Graz.
Southern flair sets the perfect mood for the burgers, which are prepared with freshly ground meat from Styrian Alpine cattle. Other products such as salad and vegetables also come largely from regional organic sources. Vegetarians can choose from five veggie burgers.
Try something new, that's the credo. Many small courses in colourful bowls and plates are served and everyone can help themselves. The flavours of Levantine cuisine made from regional ingredients with exciting oriental aromas unfold on the palate.
The high-quality regional meat is cooked super-tender in the smoker from the USA, and the house classic is the sandwich with pulled pork belly, smoked feta and roasted onion cream. The "Franzl Burger" delights with smoked beetroot and a balsamic reduction.
A special kind of café. Moussa Moussa offers delicious bites from his homeland in the Middle East: vegan and vegetarian dishes such as falafel, hummus, baba ganoush and muhammara. Also cool: the house coffee is made with beans from Yemen and refined with cardamom.
Oh My Dog strays off the beaten track when it comes to street food. The stylish food truck in Graz's old town offers night owls exciting creations, such as bratwurst with tempura prawns, wakame seaweed, teriyaki sauce and wasabi mayo. Or how about the king oyster mushroom and chickpea sausage?
Sandwiches and hot dogs become an experience because the ingredients and preparation are top-notch. The weekly specials always shine with great ideas. A snack? The sandwich with organic blood sausage, sauerkraut, apple chutney and fried onions or vegan with braised purple haze carrots.
A very urban Asian restaurant - a graffiti artist from Graz was even hired to give the walls a cool look. The gastronomic focus is on traditional ramen. There is even a noodle soup version with roast beef from neighbour Sepp Mosshammer. Plus rolls and curries galore.
Industrial design and international cuisine go well together. The concept is called "Steak'n'Roll", and the meat quality is correspondingly fine. There is a large selection of sandwiches, each well-filled with 150 grams of churrasco steak or vegan with grilled tofu.
The shiny red and black bricks are already a trademark. The beef patty is served with prawns, while meat-free alternatives include mushroom and pumpkin seed vegetable patties. The wine list is dedicated: with 50 biodynamic, natural and orange wines.
Vegan cooking has been practiced here since 1976. The fresh vegetables - even sweet potatoes - are sourced from local farmers. Authentic international dishes are served: mainly Indian cuisine, but also dishes from Peru and Thailand are conjured up.
"All you can eat" with a difference, because the food is not presented as a buffet, but freshly prepared. The Asian food selection is quite large; it ranges from miso soup, gyoza dumplings and tempura prawns to bowls, dim sum, sushi, nigiri and maki.
Ramen is a philosophy of indulgence in Japan, and now it is also practiced in Graz. The hot broth made from beef, chicken or vegetables with delicious noodles is served in many different variations - depending on the topping, for example with egg, bamboo shoots, spring onions and meat.
Gourmets have been making the pilgrimage to the Wilding for more than three decades. One thing is certain: they won't leave hungry. The classics "Cheesebörger Speck'und'Ei" or "Hühner Cordon bleu Börger" guarantee a full stomach. A lighter option is the "Mozzarella Börger".
The shiny silver-grey food truck has a lot to offer. Falafel or grilled halloumi taste great as starters. Wraps, burritos, burgers and bowls offer variety, while the pulled chicken burger is a classic. The fried cauliflower stands out among the side dishes.
The best location on the Mur, a quiet atmosphere, a beach with palm trees and a playground are a top combination. The Steckerlfisch with grilled vegetables and potato salad is fun, and calamari and scampi are also served. A "ban" is the fish soup; thirst is quenched with beer.
The name says it all, as the house specialty is Pad Thai: traditional homemade rice noodles in homemade tamarind sauce with prawns, tofu and vegetables. Another hit on the menu is of course the Tom Kha Gai. The various curries are also delicious.
Yamamoto is a Graz classic when it comes to Japanese food. Here the sushi and sashimi come in many different variations. The tamago (egg omelette) as a starter, followed by maki (filled with fish or vegetables), sashimi or a bento box - it's all very good!
Hawaii meets Graz. At Humuhumu, colourful poké bowls combine wonderful exoticism with freshness and delicious taste. If you feel like it, you can even put together your own dish and choose your own rice, fish, chicken, tofu, vegetables, fruit, mayonnaise and toppings.
