Alt-Salzburg

Frommer's Review

A retreat into old-world elegance, Alt-Salzburg is one of the most venerated restaurants in the city, a bastion of formal service, snobbism, and refined cuisine. The restaurant, which often gives you an icy reception unless they know you, occupies a building constructed into the side of the steep and rocky cliffs of Mönchsberg. The wood-ceiling room is crafted to reveal part of the chiseled rock of the Mönchsberg. The menu features main dishes such as filet of river char sautéed with tomatoes, mushrooms and capers, leaf spinach, and potatoes; and lamb chops sautéed in an herb crust and thyme sauce with zucchini and potato cakes. In August, the restaurant is also open on Sunday and Monday for lunch.
