Austrian restaurants in Berlin

  1. A

    Louis

    If you thought a schnitzel is a schnitzel is a schnitzel, you’ll think again when you see Louis’ elephant-ear-sized contenders. With an average diameter of 50cm, this may well be the largest pounded patty in the city, breaded just so and perfectly paired with a sudsy Austrian brew. If that doesn’t make you want to trek out to Neukölln’s village-like historic Rixdorf quarter, we don’t know what will.

    Weltrestaurant Markthalle

    This mellow pub has a century-old pedigree and is also famous as a location for the 2003 Berlin cult flick Herr Lehmann. Come for breakfast (till very late afternoon); fresh, creative salads at lunchtime; or a heaping helping of schweinebraten (roast pork). It pairs exceptionally well with a mug of Berliner Bürgerbräu brewed a few miles away in Köpenick.

    Austria

    Deer antlers and Romy Schneider posters preside over this hunting-lodge style restaurant perfect for camping out with a cold Kapsreiter beer. The mitten-sized veal schnitzel are among the best in town and preferably enjoyed balancing atop the tasty potato salad. Thursday’s suckling-pig special brings out local devotees in droves.

    Jolesch

    This cosy green salon enjoys a fiercely loyal following and gives you the choice of sticking with Austrian basics – schnitzel, goulash – or going haute with lobster carpaccio, red beet tagliatelle or other internationally flavoured dishes. The three-course lunches are a steal at €8.50, but portions could be bigger.

    Sarah Wiener Im Hamburger Bahnhof

    Discuss the latest Hamburger Bahnhof art exhibit over coffee or schnitzel at Berlin’s smartest museum cafe, the domain of culinary star Sarah Wiener. A long bar, patterned stone floor and leather banquettes add character and texture to what used to be the train station waiting hall.

    Cafe Einstein Stammhaus

    Schnitzels, noodles and warm apple strudels - you'll find them all at this classic Viennese coffee house in a historic garden villa once owned by a 1920s German actress. The setting is stylish but the staff could lay off the snootiness.
