The employees are extremely nice, attentive and usually remember you after a few trips. All of the meals use extremely fresh ingredients and there are quite a few vegetarian and possibly some vegan options as well. Their tofu sandwiches are less than 3 EUR and one of the tastiest I've ever had.

DJ and live music events occur in the back room, which I think used to be an old meat-locker, only instead of slabs of beef hanging out, there is now trendy artwork from local Vienna artists.

In the summertime you can get several flavors of vegetarian / vegan ice-cream on vegan sugar cones or in cups! Hot damn. I think the ice-cream is from Schillinger, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

The thing that troubles me is that they call themselves a vegetarian / vegan restaurant, but they have fish menus. Err, it's a bit odd to walk into a supposedly non-meat restaurant to be greeted with the stench of frying fish meat.

They are vegetarian and vegan friendly, even going so far as to make sure that their bagel dough is prepared vegan. Soy milk is available for delicious cafe lattes for an extra .50 cents. A bit small unfortunately, with seating room for around 20 people.

Service was quick, friendly and extremely casual and the food absolutely brilliant.

Starter was a super fresh and delicious portion of bruschetta, featuring a homemade sauce and smoked tofu topped with soy cheese, followed by a main dish of fresh vegetables covered in margarine and herbs, next to a unique rendition of cordon bleu, vegan-style, I left more than full and more than happy.

A bit on the pricey side, but it's absolutely worth it and what can you expect from a 1st district bio bar in the heart of Wien? Also, fun to spot local politician Madeleine Petrovich, whose family are the owners of the Bio Bar.

Small (you may want to call ahead and reserve a table if you're more than 2) and inviting, the Bok is a vegetarian dream come true in the 4th district. The mock meat dishes are excellent, differing in flavors from many of the other local vegetasian restaurants and the staff are extremely friendly.

Open until 2200 M-Sat, Bok is the first place in Wien to give me the feeling of sitting on a San Francisco street corner (a good thing).

I highly recommend the veggie lemon crispy duck!

I. is a legend in the 16th, offering an all-day breakfast menu, a few vegetarian options, affordable coffee and a lovely, but always full, schanigarten in the spring/summer months.

C.I. also goes one step further, offering their neighbors German integration and language courses, beat that.

The Nil is famous for it's fine Egyptian cooking and it's casual and friendly atmosphere. The coffee is incredible. The only problem I have with Nil is the amount of cigarette smoke! In the winter months you get a giant mouthful of throat choking cigarette smoke when getting into the door. I don't see the smoking problem in Vienna going away anytime soon I'm afraid.

The restaurants are all designed and furnished very modern, giving it a fresh and hip feel. The food is quite ok, with a few vegan and vegetarian options on the menu.

This is a very busy location being in the middle of Donau City, so you have lots of businessmen, politicians and diplomats hustling through, making it sometimes difficult to actually get a table.

One of the few spots in Vienna to grab a curry with some real kick to it. In fact, one of the choices for spiciness on their menu is simply a picture of an ambulance, so I think you can guess they mean business when it comes to . Lots of vegetarian and vegan options too.

Their falafel sandwich is great, filled with hummus and fresh salad and smoking hot falafels. Portions are pretty great, so expect a full stomach after you're done.

Formosa being the distributor of all the fine mock meats that every other vegan/vegetarian restaurant uses in their meals. The meals are all extremely hearty, full of fake meat, rice and salad, with a side of warm spiced soy milk included! They have a different soup almost everyday, this visit of mine being one of the best damn pumpking and mushroom soups I've ever had.

The service is attentive *almost* to the point of being over-bearing, but not quite reaching that point.

Prices are insanely affordable and it's hard to sit next to their fridges full of mock meats without taking home a few packages of whatever was just in the meal they served you.

The cafe area is smaller, with seating for 8, so if you are in a group of 3 or more, call ahead and reserve the big table.

Oh, not on the menu, but ask if they can make you a mixed plate, it's full of different mock meats and rice for 6.80 EUR and well worth it if they feel like making it for you.

Italian vegetarian and vegan food for sit in or take out.

Their pizzas are outstanding, piled high with fake meats and cheese, nice and greasy, just like my carnivore pizza shop used to make.

Their cheesesteaks are off the hook, spilling over with cheese and mock meats making it feel like you were a meat-mouth all over again.

Don't get me started on their vegan cakes! The things they do with their cakes and pastries would make any self-respecting veggie/vegan pass out and/or go check their weight on a scale, immediately.

Not the most authentic or the tastiest, but, open to 2330 every night and is quite affordable.

They unfortunately do not have the Yasai Itame that's on the Akakiko menu, but, they have several vegetarian options (which are vegan-friendly) and that's nothing to complain about.

The vegetarian General Tso's Chicken was out of control and the service was quick, attentive and extremely inviting to a handful of tourists asking a bunch of annoying questions about their food.

Whenever I'm in town it's one of my immediate stops for amazing veggie/vegan Vietnamese cuisine.

I highly recommend their Sweet & Sour Chicken and their various Claypots.

The herbivore is ready to explode with vegetarian and vegan goodness, from huge tofu, tempeh and seitan sandwiches to a thick veggie burger, you can't go wrong from appetizer down to dessert.

The staff were all extremely helpful and didn't laugh as I an my vegan travelers ordered enough vegan food to feed an army and were even nice enough to call us a cab while we finished our cookie.

Their prices are a little higher, but, such is life when you are a gourmet vegetarian. The interior is beautiful, very modern and urban, making this a great location to bring your vegetarian blind date to. Hollerei also offers cooking courses, catering and buffets!

This place is usually packed, so large groups beware, you probably won't find a spot during the rush time periods.

Right in the middle of MQ's 'Electric Avenue', you can take two-steps next door into the book shop, buy the latest issue of Architectural Digest and head back into Kantine for a coffee and afternoon of comfortable and warm reading time.

Has quite a few options for vegetarians, but the vegan options are a bit slim, but hey, it's getting there. The tofu-salad is always fresh and knusprig.

Everything was fresh, hot and delicious and extremely well-packed when I order for delivery. I can recommend the Chana Masala highly and their Sabzi Samosas were awe-some when dipped in the Mango Chutney.

Also, their delivery service is excellent, fast and pleasant. The driver actually had change and didn't spill the food all over the bag.

Maschu stuffs their falafel sandwiches full of tahini, falafel, veggies (including kraut) and various sauces, all for less than 3,50 EUR each. They have quite a few vegetarian and vegan options in addition to their falafel sandwich (try their hummus!) and their prices are pretty reasonable (but getting higher every 6 months it seems).

Their service is a bit lacking sometimes, so if it looks busy and you actually want some service, it's probably better for you to turn around and head somewhere else

A bit upscale and pricey, but totally fucking worth it and always a must stop whenever I'm in town.

There's no dress-code, but don't fool yourself into thinking you can show up in your Birkenstocks. The service is always attentive and helpful for picky vegans and meals usually ranges in the $20-$30 region, so bring that credit card.

Also, dinner-only folks, so, get your lunch takeout somewhere else.

The shop however was a bit small and looked like the bathroom of an old west saloon, but their kindness made up for it. The owner was shutting down the shop when my ragtag group of vegan, vegetarian and carnivorous video game developers from Austria and Germany walked in, but he was kind enough to open back up, stick some pizzas back in the oven, and even sat down with us talking about the games industry, pizza in Europe and ourselves.

The bosses, delivery guy and cook even took photos with us before we left, turning the quiet street into a strobe jungle when 6-7 flash bulbs started rapidly pulsing as the photo war ensued.

Pizza was quite ok, possibly because we smooth talked our way into getting some extra handfuls of toppings tossed on top.

This was awhile ago, but I've since heard their ownership has changed and that the friendliness of the place has gone downhill.

A bit small, but even more of a reason to visit and try their giant sized whole pies or slices.

Their pizzas are HUGE, but not as large as the actual restaurant themselves. Notice the plural, because they are huge. There are at least 3 different dining areas covering almost the whole block in giant greasy pizza goodness.

The service is great, with what seems to be 2 employees for every customer. In the summer they have a huge outdoor seating area on a nice (mostly) quiet street.

Everything is bio and organic and always healthy. Their store is connected with the deli and offers all the organic and biological medical and lifestyle products one could need.

Now. Small, warm and welcoming family-run restaurant, with two of the nicest owners I've ever met, serving some of the tastiest curry I've ever had in Wien. Oh, and finally curries that have some sort of spice and taste to them!

The all you can eat buffet features 5 vegetarian / vegan curries, a giant bucket of rice, all you can grab pappadam, a salad bar and a tasty soup. Fill up your plates, fill up your stomach and have a pleasant and smoke-free experience. It's almost unheard of!

Oh yeah, they also have 3 additional curries with meat in them for you blood mouths.

Interior is nice and clean, featuring 2 floors and comfortable, casual seating around darkwood tables with gentle music throughout.

The food is filling and quite affordable, since it seems students are Ronahi's primary demographic. Oh, Ronahi provides free wireless internet, so, expect to be surrounding by a handful of students clacking away on their keyboards while downing a bowl of hummus.

OH, one more thing, they have DR PEPPER on the menu. You Amerikanskis know what I'm talking about.

Yes please! Rupp's is a special place, it looks like a traditional Irish pub, dark, smokey, with lot's of rock and folk on the stereo. Not someplace you'd think would feature some of the best vegetarian and vegan cooking in Vienna.

The menu is 100% vegetarian and mostly vegan (everything is marked). Their vegan schnitzel is legendary and deserving of the praise and their vegan goulash is to die for.

For those looking for a little alcohol, Rupp's is the spot. In addition to having a ton of beer and cider in bottles or on tap, they also offer 455 different types of whiskey. Yes, you read that correctly, over 455 different types of whiskey. Kiss your liver goodbye.

If you're with a larger group, it might be a good idea to reserve a table ahead of time. In the later evenings it's impossible to get a table if you don't want to share one.

From the exterior (and the interior) you wouldn't think much of Sahiba, but their food is extremely fresh, full of flavor and extremely affordable. Their lunch menu is super cheap, though a bit small and only has a few vegetarian options, but their full menu prices aren't as bad as many other restaurants.

The service is family-style, with a husband and wife team and their young daughter running around listening to her iPod. Extremely warm, attentive and nice, we were greeted and taken care of every step of our dinner.

The interior is worth a mention. A little bit kitsch, a little bit trashy, but that gives it loads of charm, surprisingly enough. Extremely high ceilings, red felt on the walls and blue outlines all over the place, it's definitely an experience.

) the Saigon caters to vegetarians as well as meat mouths. Their lunch menus are plentiful and quite affordable and their service is always pleasant to interact with. Their attention to detail is outstanding and their fishtanks are always fun to watch while waiting for my vegetable tofu wok to arrive.

Their burgers are juicy and Samolis certainly grills up one of the best vegan cheeseburgers I've had in Europe. Their burger combo (vegan cheeseburger + bottled drink + amazing pommes for 6 EUR) can't be beat.

The interior is a bit small with room for around 8 people to sit and eat and the lighting could be a bit softer, but, overall, Sam and Oli put their hearts into their shop and are happily filling the bellies of Vienna's veg-heads.

Sushi King is absolutely one of the best kept secrets for amazing Japanese cooking in Vienna. Their sushi is always fresh and delicious, the service there is always great for me and the owner(?)/chef is one of the kindest gentleman chefs I've ever met in this city.

Often over-shadowed by the trendier spots across the street in the Naschmarkt, Sushi King is a great little family owned restaurant with seating for around 20 people, serving some of the freshest and healthiest authentic Japanese meals in the area. Ignore the major franchises and go local folks.

All you can eat lunch buffet with over 10 dishes, plus soups, desert, sushi and rice. The majority of the buffet is vegan (just ask if you aren't sure what is or isn't). If an all you can eat buffet isn't your thing, they also have a super affordable lunch menu including many mock-meat dishes with tea and desert included.

Their dinner menu is also a treat. 50+ items, lots of mock-meat items (their fried chicken is incredible!). Great 'date spot' for young veggies or traveling veggies who want to get a taste of great Taiwanese vegetarian cooking.

The 1030 location is freshly renovated and superbly fit for the hip jetset. Sometimes overly-friendly waitresses, but, always a great place to eat and meet friends you haven't seen in months.

The food is quite good with there usually being a handful of different yummy curries for you to choose from. The service leaves a bit to be desired, but it's possible I've just hit them on bad days.

A tip, be prepared to pay for the bread on the buffet. That was a surprise for me the first time I went, hopefully that's a policy that's changed. Note to self: Don't assume that bread placed on an all you can eat buffet is also all you can eat.

You can tell the workers and owner put a lot of thought into creating a comfortable environment for everything from having cocktails, to watching fashion shows, to pondering over tech talks.

Free WLAN, prices are quite ok, the owner is usually hanging out and making sure customers are happy. What else can you ask for?

The 1070 location is a bit more aged and darker atmosphere. This is where you'll want to bring your parents or date when you want a nice quiet evening out with some great veggie food.

The ingredients were all fresh and tasty and the waiting staff were attentive and often around. I can't speak for the bar, but the restaurant was quite ok.

Good amount of veggie/vegan options and every meal is extremely high quality. The price reflects this, so prepare to spend a bit more for your curry than usual, but, it's well worth it.
