I can't fault this place at all. Old Vienna has been on this road for the last 40+ years and it shows why. The food is perfect, the service is perfect, and the owner is a fantastic guy with such good energy. Werner clearly cares about his business, perfecting his menu and being so attentive to his customers, even coming out of the kitchen to ask how the evening is going. Will definitely be returning on my next visit. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I booked this restaurant for our 17th wedding anniversary after reading amazing reviews. We were so disappointed. Food was good but not amazing and scallops were sparse. But the wait!!! Between sitting down and our main being served was over 90 minutes. We brought out kids. They were so hungry. After 45 minutes the waitress came and asked what we ordered again! Tables are so close to each other, the loud people next to us drowned out our conversations. We were so fed up that we did not bother ordering dessert. Even kids wanted to just get out of there. Maybe it was a bad day for them, but it ruined our special day.

We had a lovely time here, food was lovely, staff were really friendly and able to give great recommendations, drink selection was good. Food was authentic, we came here because few places said they were open on bank holiday Sunday, but we were so glad we did.

Fabulous restaurant! The food was amazing and it was so nice to see such a different & varied menu with traditional Austrian dishes. The owner is lovely & funny as were the serving staff. A relaxed, intimate restaurant which you definitely need to book for in advance & can't wait to visit again. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

I can’t recommend this place enough! Owner/chef produces the most amazing food, waiting stuff was absolutely brilliant. We had surprise birthday party of 11 people and everyone was very pleased with food and atmosphere. Owner is very friendly and accommodating, nothing was too much for him, he let me bring birthday decorations before the birthday, all our requests were met with a smile! If you looking for special place with great food Old Vienna is THE PLACE!!!❤️

The lobster, salmon and scallop ravioli starter was delicious, as was the sticky date toffee pudding, but I was extremely disappointed with the scallops as a main dish; It was literally double the size of the starter, which didn’t feel like a proper meal at all. The scallops tasted over-cooked and the sauce was overpowering!! The service was great but it didn’t make up for the over-priced food. I don’t mind paying more for something high quality, but the food is definitely not that. A bit of a let down. ☹️

A very highly rated place and for good reason judging by our visit. We were fortunate to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary here. If it hadn't had fell on a midweek day then I feel we wouldn't have got in. It's an unpretentious dining room and the atmosphere was very relaxed. The menu is a bit limited and any fussy eater like me may want to phone ahead to check what's on offer. We had fillet steaks and they were excellent, together with a nice selection of vegetables. Note these are included in the price and they can do a bit of "mix and match" across the menu. The desserts were simply sublime. Despite its popularity and reputation we thought the prices are very competitive even compared to lesser establishments. It's a small bar but we were happy. The service from our friendly and attentive waitress was exemplary.

This is the kind of establishment where they do one sitting per table per night. 22 covers, so 22 meals served per night. Many dishes are Austrian, then Austrian chef is also the owner and wonderfully charismatic. The food is not shy in flavours. Even the snapse at the end is home made. We'll be returning.
