Frommer's Review
One of the most appealing wine restaurants in Grinzing dates back to 1848, when it was little more than a shack within a garden. Its real fame came around the turn of the 20th century, when Crown Prince Rudolf, son of Emperor Franz Josef, adopted it as his favorite watering hole. A verdant garden, scattered with tables, is favored by Viennese apartment dwellers on warm summer evenings. Inside, portraits of Rudolf decorate a setting that evokes an old-fashioned hunting lodge. Come here for pitchers of the fruity white wine grüner Veltliner and a light red, roter Bok. Glasses of wine cost 2.40€ to 5€ ($3.10-$6.50). The menu lists schnitzels, roasts, and soups, but the house specialty is shish kabob. The salad bar is very fresh. Main courses cost 10€ to 11€ ($13-$14). It's open from mid-March to mid-January daily 1-11:30pm, and mid-January to mid-March only Friday through Sunday 1-11:30pm.
