http://tupalo.com/en/users/2500 Tupalo en-us /en/vienna/manolos no mexican love .... been there yesterday with a couple of friends and we were all very disappointed. the only good thing about that place was the interior. everything looks very stylish and they play (oh surprise) salsa music. oh, and the selection of tequila they serve was also fine but ... the cocktails ... oh my god, it was the worst planters punch i ever drank in my life, and i had to pay 8€ for it. same reactions from my friends (none of us finished his cocktail). we came to the point, that if you look up the recipe somewhere and mix it yourself, it just can get better. about the food i can't say anything special, but the chili i had was quite boring. all in all we agreed, that this is not the right place to eat mexican food. the waiter was quite cocky, and it took him quite some time to get our drinks. then we had 3 drinks on our bill we didn't have and got into a discussion with him .... maybe i've just been there the wrong day, but i can't suggest anyone to go there ... 48.2060852051 16.358341217 Tue, 21 Jul 2009 16:50:07 +0000 /en/vienna/manolos /en/vienna/eissalon-gavaz as i grew up in this area, and there is this old discussion that always was and will always be there ... gavaz or tichy? for me there is only gavaz, as i can't stand tichy (sweet and tasteless ice cream) there were times, when i've been there every day the whole summer =) best lemon ice cream, incredible cinnamon ice cream and my all time favorite will always be schoko-banane ;) everything there tastes soo fruity and real, that for me there is no better place to go and get an ice cream! try it out yourself, you won't be disappointed! 48.179599762 16.3738994598 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 11:35:47 +0000 /en/vienna/eissalon-gavaz /en/vienna/finkh what should i say ... i think wow is the best word to describe it =) been there yesterday with two friends of mine and we were all very happy afterwards! simple interior, super friendly service, very nice to sit outside as it's quite a silent part of the esterhazygasse. but now let's talk about the food we had :) i had a "tafelspitzbouillon mit frittaten" and a "gemischter grüner salat mit hühnerbruststreifen in kürbiskernpanier". the soup was one of the best i've ever had. the salad was fresh, the meat perfect and the cook put a lot, and i mean a lot, of "kernöl" .. what i refer to as the black gold! ^^ my friends had a "chili sin carne" and the "blutwurstgröstl". of course i tried their dishes too ;) the chili really tasted like you would expect a chili to be, and it was quite hot. despite the fact that i'm not a great blutwurst fan ... wow, it was good. My friend really enjoyed it too as he likes blutwurst ... no he's not a va... 48.19505 16.351784 Fri, 22 May 2009 16:06:32 +0000 /en/vienna/finkh /en/vienna/china-restaurant-duft my favorite all you can eat buffet chinese restaurant. they don't serve anything you won't see in another chinese buffet but the main diffrence is that everything tastes really good! =) there's always a lot of people there, just another good sign i'd say ;) my all time favorite chinese dish is the szechuan chicken. usually it lacks of spicyness but at duft you need a big drink to cool down your mouth ^^ just the sushi is not really good, but hey, you also don't go to a pizzeria to have a steak. just stick to the great chinese food! nothing special to mention about the interior, it looks like any other chinese restaurant inside (dragons, chinese paintings etc.). service is also not worth mentioning, but with that food they serve they really don't have to care about. anyways .. if you're hungry you can really eat a lot of good chinese food there for 8€ per person. 48.1850974428 16.3547540838 Fri, 22 May 2009 15:57:40 +0000 /en/vienna/china-restaurant-duft /en/vienna/maschu-maschu been there a couple of times now with my flatmate as we live around the corner, and i usually have the falafel teller or plate depending on how hungry i am ;) the falafel itself is very good, you get 4 diffrent types of salad, some humus and this red whatever thingy i dont now what it is :) when it's warm it's great to sit outside, as there are not so many cars passing by. sitting inside i don't really mind, and i never had the feeling that my clothes smelled like falafel afterwards (though my burps did). the service is a good example for this sort of "overun" restaurants. people will still go there and get a falafel because they like it so much, i think that's why they don't really care about the service. the Café Latte would be another good example - shitty service, but it's always hard to find a table there. in the end i'd say it's worth checking the place out, especially when you're into falafel ;) 48.199798584 16.3493995667 Sat, 25 Apr 2009 17:11:25 +0000 /en/vienna/maschu-maschu /en/vienna/sapa been there yesterday for the second time, and i really don't understand the hype. the curry i had yesterday was pretty "boring" ... not even a bit spicy and the meat was pretty dry. though ... prices are ok and the service was very friendly. but i really can't see anything special about that place, for me it's just an average asian restaurant ... 48.2000999451 16.3507995605 Wed, 15 Apr 2009 13:47:23 +0000 /en/vienna/sapa /en/vienna/stil-laden great great skate shop! very stylish, wisely selected variety of shoes and cloths. the guys that run the store are super friendly. i really strongly recommend going there, räg and gibian are no competition to this store! besides that ... i love my new shoes =) 48.1996002197 16.3474998474 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 14:15:39 +0000 /en/vienna/stil-laden /en/vienna/phil A friend of mine started working there recently so I went there to visit him and check out the place. It's a quite stylish café with a lots of books that you can read and buy. They don't offer a lot of food but what i had was very good. The Roggentoast was one of the best toasts i ever had. The falafel they get directly from naschmarkt and it was good as well. The chocolate/cherry cake i had afterwards was fresh and yummy =) If you want to go somewhere to relax a bit and read a book, i strongly recommend going there. 48.2001991272 16.3610992432 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 14:03:29 +0000 /en/vienna/phil /en/vienna/barflys This place is THE cocktail bar in Vienna! All the cocktails cost 9-10 € but they are worth every cent. We went there to have one cocktail, but the first one was so good that we had three more. The variety is incredible. It would take you about an hour to read through the whole menu of drinks. Hundreds of cocktails, whiskeys, vodkas, tequillas etc. To get a feeling for the great ambience of the bar check out the pictures on the homepage. All I can say is that I had a great night yesterday and will for sure go there again very soon! bar cigars cocktail whisky 48.197166 16.349079 Fri, 20 Mar 2009 13:33:00 +0000 /en/vienna/barflys /en/vienna/franz been there last week Saturday to have breakfast there. they offer on Saturdays and Sundays breakfast from ten to five in the afternoon on an all-you-can-eat base for 10€ you have these little sheets of paper on each table where you just mark what you want and you can re-order as often as you want. fresh pastry included too of course. you can choose from ham, bacon, marmelade, honey, several kinds of teas, coffee, ham & eggs, cereals and yoghurt and i think i forgot something ;) their kitchen is right in the middle of the cafe/restaurant so the good smell of fresh food was all around. we really enjoyed our 5 hour breakfast. a slight minus was the furniture .. as the chairs weren't too comfortabel. i checked the rest of the menu and i have to go there again to see how good the cook really is. a big plus they get from me because the have "Murauer" on tap, which for me is one of the best beers of all time. those who know it will agree ;) breakfast 48.1966018677 16.3621997833 Fri, 06 Feb 2009 18:40:33 +0000 /en/vienna/franz /en/vienna/the-four-bells-irish-pub-and-club been there last week at a birthday party in the disco in the cellar. i know the pub for quite a long time, meaning when it was called McAdams and not Four Bells ... for those who remember ;) the pub actually is really nice, they play good music there and serve good beer! the disco down stairs is the complete opposite. the name's floyds. it's like one of these wanna-be fancy lounge clubs but very small. it was house and r´n´b night, two music styles i like as much as i like being hit in the face :P still we had a good time, we were just unlucky with the waiter who was a complete asshole! the bouncer told me that it was his first and last night working here ;) 4 stars for the pub, 3 for the disco 48.1963996887 16.3670005798 Fri, 30 Jan 2009 12:41:21 +0000 /en/vienna/the-four-bells-irish-pub-and-club /en/vienna/paolo%C2%B4s for such a quick take away store i really like it i never had any bad experience with the staff, they were always friendly and nice too look at .. well, when you're a man ;) you really get a lot of pasta for the price, but i would go for the ciabattas. they heat them up in 30 seconds and they really taste good and the price is around 2,6 to 2,9 which is ok i once tried the tomato soup and that you really shouldn't take, because it's not really a soup, more like a sauce and wasn't good at all 48.195659 16.339759 Fri, 30 Jan 2009 11:49:23 +0000 /en/vienna/paolo%C2%B4s /en/vienna/caffe-latte a very nice and stylish place, the bar itself looks amazing i had a beef steak toast for 9,9€ and it was great, well, the steak was great, the side salad and the chips were not so tasty but still all in all i really enjoyed that meal, and the price was ok after that i had a glass of white wine (sauvignon blanc) for 3,8€ and god damnit, it was worth it, by just having a look at the wine card i can say that they serve really good wine there. if you are into wine, you can definitely go there. UPDATE: been there today and checked out the red wines, still, the selection is great, but the experience today wasn't. the first wine i had came in an unpolished glass and the second one was cold .. cold red wine ... come on ... had no time to check out the cocktails, but i'll go there next week sunday again as they have happy hour the whole day (4,5€ for a cocktail) UPDATE: i had my cocktailbar test cocktail which is a tequilla sunrise, easy to make, but perfect to measure the barkeepers m... 48.2022018433 16.3488998413 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 23:09:32 +0000 /en/vienna/caffe-latte /en/vienna/bamboo been there for lunch today the buffet is more or less standard (starters, deserts and sushi) it's nice that you can "create" your own dish by choosing from a variety of vegetables and meat/seafood/fish and add one out of 8 sauces and give your plate to the cook and he'll prepare it in front of you all in all it's good but nothing outstanding besides the "live cooking" effect ... but this had no effect on the taste ;) the price at lunch is € 8,5 and that's still ok but for dinner they charge € 13,50 which is far too much i'd say and yes, the waiters aren't the friendliest ones, but i let them feel this with my 10 cent tip :P 48.2016983032 16.3404998779 Sat, 17 Jan 2009 02:32:47 +0000 /en/vienna/bamboo /en/vienna/chill-out-lounge been there yesterday for a birthday party quite a nice place, they have really comfortable chairs and couches there i had a glass of red wine which was very good, though for 3,8 € a bit overprized. the cocktails were not brilliant but good. they had a dj there which was playing electronical (lounge) music. not enough for dancing, but still bumpy enough too keep you awake ;) none of us ate anything so i can't judge the food i'd like to give the bar 2,5 stars, because it really had no big minuses or pluses ... average place to go, 3 stars though because of the very comfortable couches ;) 48.211904 16.371901 Sat, 10 Jan 2009 17:10:52 +0000 /en/vienna/chill-out-lounge /en/vienna/solinger i was looking for a birthday present for a friend of mine who is a great cook, all he was missing is a good knife i passed by this shop several times, and some might know because they have these biiig swords in their window show case they were very friendly in there, and they really help you to find what you want and what you can afford the variety of knifes they sell there is incredible, they also have wine accesories, and sell dupont lighters all in all they get 5 stars because of the friendlyness, the variety and because i found what i was looking for ;) dupont knifes swords wine 48.1983928 16.3497241 Fri, 09 Jan 2009 09:57:06 +0000 /en/vienna/solinger /en/vienna/johnnys-pub i haven't been to this place for quite a while since today. i spent a lot of time there when i was younger, and it's good that nothing changed since then. to me it's one of the most original pubs in vienna. big burgers, baskets, good lager beer and of course only native english/irish bartenders. as far as i remember, and please correct me if i'm wrong, it was also one the first pubs with a regular pub quiz before it all started to get epidemic and now every freakin' bar thinks they need to have a quiz night .... it's kinda small, but other's would call it cosy. still it sometimes can be hard to find a place to sit, but come on ... the cool guys always stand at the bar anyways ;) 48.197118 16.365176 Thu, 08 Jan 2009 21:02:47 +0000 /en/vienna/johnnys-pub /en/vienna/freiraum as my office is just across the street we've been there a couple of times for a beer after work as mentioned by the others this place is huge, as huge as the prices ... eating there can cost you easily around 13€, without drinks!! as a friend of mine is working there, and he always was when i went there, i can't really say anything about the service the interior is really creative ... but more like wanna-be-creative i wouldn't count myself in for the target group of this bar ;) 48.196455 16.342677 Mon, 05 Jan 2009 19:40:58 +0000 /en/vienna/freiraum /en/vienna/pancho been there today at a birthday party food is just about average and the cocktails too i didn't feel very comfortable there, and they only had two waiters there which kept us waiting for drinks over 15 minutes!! sorry to say .. but i can't really recommend that place 48.219039917 16.3814945221 Tue, 30 Dec 2008 02:56:58 +0000 /en/vienna/pancho /en/vienna/schokov been there to get some choco-presents =) i really liked the store, the variety of chocolate is incredible prices are fine according to the high quality of choco you get there you need chocolate - you go there schoko 48.2024002075 16.3542003632 Wed, 24 Dec 2008 12:29:59 +0000 /en/vienna/schokov /en/vienna/hanil i haven't been there for almost a year, but i remember the place as a nice (very small) sushi bar the maki were very good!!

it's only worth to go there in summer, when you can sit outside and they have a happy hour till 8 but since they had a BZÖ party there, i really can't go there anymore although i live around the corner ;) 48.1990013123 16.3495998383 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 15:51:54 +0000 /en/vienna/stylez /en/vienna/werkzeugh one of the nerdiest places i've been for a long time =) still they have kozel beer which is very good and the style of it is just more than unique i had no troubles breathing ;) 48.1908988953 16.3558998108 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 14:04:37 +0000 /en/vienna/werkzeugh /en/vienna/unkai this is definitely the best sushi in town if you can afford it - go there, you'll love it there's a sushi brunch which is not too expensive in comparison what you get for you want to invite someone who loves sushi for his birthday or smthg .. get him there 48.2019996643 16.3719005585 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 14:02:23 +0000 /en/vienna/unkai /en/vienna/yellow a little bit overpriced, but still ok for the location been there a couple of times for lunch and the quality is very variable. i really like the duck there, but one day it taste super hyper good, the other day it's just an average meal, might depend on the cook's mood ;) i liked the style, but for sure a bit too "different" for some 48.1952590942 16.3402309418 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 13:48:08 +0000 /en/vienna/yellow /en/vienna/caf%C3%A9-gitarre also ich weiß nicht an was für einem abend mein vorredner dort war, aber die gitarre is ein echt kultiges uriges lokal die klientell is bunt gemischt, von 18-70 is alles dabei, und immer gute musik (eben alles mit gitarren ;)) deko ist und bleibt geschmackssache, aber wie gesagt, alles holz und eben urig bier preise sind etwas teuer (3,2€), dafür sind die überbackenen brote sehr lecker ich geh seit 8 jahren hin, und arbeite teilweise am samstag auch, also mir ist das lokal sehr ans herz gewachsen :) 48.188055 16.372294 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 13:43:32 +0000 /en/vienna/caf%C3%A9-gitarre /en/vienna/philosoph my favorite place to go in the "bermuda dreieck" usually no stupid people there, music for everyone, i even celebrated my birthday there once very nice service, long drink happy hours every day (8-9 & 12-1) 48.2118988037 16.3740005493 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 13:30:46 +0000 /en/vienna/philosoph /en/vienna/down-under well priced beer, good barservice, dancefloor in the basement and 3 wuzzler always nice to go there, and no kiddies around ;) 48.1944007874 16.3526000977 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 13:28:25 +0000 /en/vienna/down-under /en/vienna/milo good food - good wine - just a bit expensive if you like the style or not depends on your taste i found quite freaky .. the ceiling is really kinda strange 48.204197 16.358385 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 13:23:44 +0000 /en/vienna/milo /en/vienna/sushi-bar-mono for me this bar offers the best sushi in town service is nice, prices are nice for the good quality you get there 48.1972007751 16.3441009521 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 13:17:29 +0000 /en/vienna/sushi-bar-mono
