Best Street Food Restaurants in Styria
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.
A bistro with burgers, bowls and bagels. There are plenty of variations, with bagels served with cream cheese and "carrot laxx" or bacon. Burger fans like the "cheese and bacon" version, vegans the one with sweet potato rösti or beet patty. Pleasant atmosphere.
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?
"Fresh, homemade and made from regional ingredients" is the motto. The sausages are made according to an old recipe by a local master butcher. The plant-based alternatives, for example with polenta and oat flakes, are top. There are also handmade spelt rolls.
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.
The food truck stands out with its stylish exterior, and the Mexican street food even more so. Authentic classics such as tacos, burritos, quesadillas and the bowl of homemade chilli con carne taste delicious. The spicy salsas served with them are the icing on the cake.
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.
A café and restaurant under one roof, serving a variety of baked potatoes to satisfy small appetites, garnished with salmon, meat or with vegan toppings such as corn, chickpeas, red cabbage and walnuts. The burgers (the trout burger, for example) are delicious. The pasta and pizza are also popular.
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.
Some oriental flair and hippie elements, plus house sounds. The menu also moves away from the usual. Beetle bean hummus, melanzani with paprika caramel or venison sashimi are on the menu. Sausages from the restaurant's own bison and water buffalo are also delicious.
After a tour of the shopping center, it's good to have a bite to eat. The food truck has just the right menu for this. The 200-gram burger with gherkin relish and fried onions, for example, is perfect for hungry people. There are also meatless options, such as burgers with an oatmeal patty.
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.
It's hit the mark with an aim to create modern dishes with high-quality regional products. A star dish "Just Another LEMON Tree PASTA" with ribbon noodles made from Ennstal eggs in a lemon cream sauce is delightful. Also, to try, the 12-hour cooked pulled pork and seed oil mayo on the menu under "Bratl Börger".
