The long matured ham is not the inspiration here for nothing. Sliced wafer-thin, it delights Spanish connoisseurs and novices alike. Lomo or chorizo from the legendary Ibérico pigs are also sliced for wrapping or tasting on the spot. Muy bien!

Wallnerstraße 5, 1010 Vienna, Austria

The list of hot and cold tapas is as long as it is appetising. It ranges from ajo blanco to croquetas de jamón ibérico and the "spicy" empanadas. With matching wines (Rueda, Toro, Rioja) and still plenty of "corazon", the restaurant is now in its 15th year.

Lange Gasse 52, 1080 Vienna, Austria

The gourmet journey to the Iberian peninsula begins with the Spanish snack board. Pimientos de Padrón, the famous Pulpo a la Gallega or Boquerones are available for all friends who want to explore the tapas menu in sharing mode. As an accompaniment? Spanish wine is best!

Lerchenfelder Straße 60, 1080 Vienna, Austria

Travelling to Spain without leaving Vienna! This is the motto of both the kitchen and the cellar (sherry anyone?). There's a chorizo-flavoured campera tortilla, for example, or the classic mussels from Galicia in the escabeche. Also always there: patatas bravas.

Gonzagagasse 14, 1010 Vienna, Austria

The Spanish chistorra pepper sausage is not often found in the city - here it fills a mini burger that emphasises the creativity of the tapas specialists. Their albondigas or croquetas de jamón ("veggie" with spinach) are also available to take away in practical boxes.

Zieglergasse 44, 1070 Vienna, Austria

At its core, it is a wine bar with bottlings from 25 regions on the programme. However, the small delicacies, for which there is no fixed menu, are also enjoyed with other drinks. These include Serrano ham, boquerones, chorizo and Manchego.

Lazarettgasse 22, 1090 Vienna, Austria
Austrian Cuisine

Austrian tavern cuisine in tapas format - perfect for sampling your way through the menu. As stylish and modern as the "Beisl" presents itself, the plates are just as visually impressive - even classics such as the wild boar cheese krainer are perfectly presented here.
