"Waterside" Restaurants in Austria
There is hardly any other chef who has managed to leave such an exquisite mark on fish cuisine and represent the gastronomic Salzkammergut internationally. Lukas Nagl is one of the best!
You could pull out one pleasure arrow after another from the quiver of superlatives and always hit the mark. Because what Philip Rachinger achieves here can only be described with superlatives: Ois.
Richard Hessl has been in charge of the kitchen for what feels like an eternity - and the modern interpretation of the Alps-Adriatic line has retained its appeal. Magnificent view of Lake Wörthersee.
The Stockerwirt has long been the best address in the Vienna Woods. With a superbly successful renovation - the ambience has been carefully embellished - and a sustained improvement in cuisine and wine. Chapeau!
The fish come from the restaurant's own ponds and around 200 herbs grow in the idyllic garden. The dishes Michael Sicher creates with great esprit are among the best fish dishes in the country. Great wines.
A popular address on Lake Attersee with a cosy garden and traditional cuisine. The Wiener Schnitzel is one of the best, and fresh fish from the lake is always on the menu. Top wine list.
The Pfefferkorn family's hospitality and wine treasures are legendary. Thanks to the kitchen team led by Thomas Hammerschmid and Daniel Biedenkopf, the experience in the gourmet parlours is even better!
Thomas Gruber integrates Carinthian and Mediterranean flavours into his fine bistro cuisine. Freshly caught fish come from the hotel's own lake. Ambience and service are of a high standard.
Emanuel Weyringer has stood for cosmopolitan, artfully composed and flavourful cuisine for many years. From the famous fried mussels to the fantastic Salzburger-Nockerl (famous light and airy pudding) – an experience.
The gastronomic flagship of Therme Geinberg; a very nice place to sit by the water lily pond. The kitchen knows how to refine special cuts or dry-aged beef. Extensive wine list.
Urban and Far Eastern ambience in the mountains of Salzburg. Grilled dishes, ramen and great rolls come from the show kitchen and the sushi master. Japanese gastronomic culture at its best.
In the Salzkammergut's flagship restaurant, chef Hermann Poll manages to delight his guests every year at the highest level. Sweetbreads and backerl with autumn trumpets is one such unforgettable creation.
It has long been a magnet right on the lake, because there is no better place to dine. The cuisine mixes the traditional with the international, with freshly caught fish or game from the restaurant's own hunt. Exquisite wines.
Top chef Hubert Wallner combines light bistro dishes with a Mediterranean touch and sophistication, while the freshly caught Wörthersee fish are a real treat. The sunsets are unbeatable.
In the cozy parlours by the idyllic lake, Christian Hofer serves up plenty of local specialties from his kitchen, as well as delicious lobster tortellini and the popular crêpes Suzette, which are flambéed at the table!
Important when staying here: breathe in, breathe out. The robust home can quickly take your breath away. But the potato dumplings with truffles will take your breath away - pure aroma!
The atmosphere on the new terraces is casual and elegant. Delicious dishes with Wörthersee fish enhance the feeling of well-being, and the pasta is home-made. The day finishes in a relaxed atmosphere at the bar.
The Ledererhaus opens your eyes to what is possible in the Salzkammergut and how the path from tradition to modernity can be successful. The XO beef tartare is pleasantly truffled. It is served with naan bread.
From a business lunch to a gourmet trip in the evening, the emphasis here is on special indulgence. You can taste this from the Carinthian mini casnoodles or Asian delicacies to the complete menu.
It's worth asking for the catch of the day from the sea. But the menu also offers everything else imaginable in terms of fish and seafood. Very good wine list and cigar specialties.
