Closed Drahtwarenhandlung
Neustiftgasse 57
1070 Vienna

Reviewed 20. Sep 2008

The menu changes on a regular basis but whatever they have to offer is always more than delicious.

Very small, very cosy, very private.

Their current menu can be viewed on their homepage (as well as their simulations) and it is either possible to order a single dish or the whole goodness. A non-vegetarian version is always offered.

Since they have a butcher in their team the sausages are handmade, fresh and made with as much love as a butcher can offer.

And to top it all - they're very kids- and family-friendly.

Closed Freiraum
Mariahilfer Straße 117

Reviewed 2 days ago

Been there for the very first time.

The place is huge! I thought it'd be rather small but almost couldn't find a friend of mine who was waiting there for me. The design is light and friendly. The different areas seem to have different color schemes (subtly done). The food was good (at least, what we had) but a bit pricey.
The waitress was a little too concerned if everything's ok and fine and if we desired something else and what she could improve. On the one hand - cool, they do seem to care what their customers think. On the other - too much care can be quite annoying.

Update: The quality of the food is still good, the concern of the waiters is still present but toned down to a bearable and actually rather nice level.

Only drawback so far - their homepage does not hold as much information as I expected. And beware - there's music.

Update: After having been there for a couple of times now I have to admit that the service is a bit lax now, the quality of the food not too exciting and make sure to ask for some milk if you order a chai. Seriously.

Closed Naturkost St. Josef
Zollergasse 26
1070 Vienna

Reviewed 26. Sep 2008

Been there for the first time today and already like the whole atmosphere.

The lunch menu comes in two sizes, which I really like, since I wouldn't have been able to finish the big plate. The food is very delicious, a bit spicy, a bit sweet.

The shop seems to offer a wide range on vegetables, Naturkosmetik and yummy goods. Will definitely come back.

Closed Pure Living Bakery
Altgasse 12
1130 Vienna

Reviewed 31. Oct 2009

For ages now I've wanted to see the Pure Living Bakery goodness for myself.

The homepage is too promising but promises not too much (actually, not enough!). I immediately fell in love with the design - comfy couches, comfy chairs, everything is very light and bright and feels and looks like a weird mix of Dutch, French and Northern German (Hamburg) style. Almost everything has a price and can be purchased, it seems. When I was there they also had an amazing collection of furniture knobs, which actually made me consider drilling holes in stuff just to hae an excuse to purchase some.
As for the food - the selection can be admired when coming in. All the cookies, brownies, cakes, muffins and other sweet goods are presented at the entrance. Menus are on the tables but the order is being made right where the dreamy goods are (to make it really really to pick just one item). The chai was one of the best ones I've ever had (they are using Tiger Spice Chai) prepared with so much love that the chai tastes completely different and simply fantastic. Even the milky foam tastes sweet and I could notice a hint of vanilla.
What excited me the most is that they are currently serving poffertjes, a Dutch dish that looks a bit like small, thick pancakes and tastes a bit like Kaiserschmarrn. Served with hot sour cherries - dreamy.
Everyone there was smiling, friendly, chatty and very very pleasant. Will definitely come back for more.

Closed Sebastiano
Mayerhofgasse 22
1040 Vienna

Reviewed 25. Aug 2009

Discovered this place because it is conveniently close to the office.

They not only have very nice tables to sit inside, in the back there is also a nice and cosy garden, which is quite enjoyable in summer. The menu changes in a regular basis. You won't find any pizza on the menu, though (at least, I haven't, so far). Instead, a lot of dishes with fresh sea food are served, as well as risotto, different variations of pasta. Sea food is their speciality, though. If we can believe the friendly bi-lingual waiter, it is fresh every single day you get there (no Tuesday-only deliveries but daily).

A bit on the pricey side but worth it.
