Best Luxury Restaurants in Vienna | Top 10
If you’re looking for the best luxury restaurants in Vienna, we have the solution!
The capital of Austria was featured in many of our articles.
It is one of the best cities for beer lovers, one of the world’s most prosperous cities (#1 actually), and here you’ll find some of the best shopping streets, as well as some of the coolest zoos in Europe.
But we never had the chance to present the best fine dining restaurants. Until today.
And after a long day of shopping, what perfect way to end your day if not with a tasteful dinner at one of these dining spots?
Without no further talking, let’s get straight to business!
10Das Turm
We begin our top 10 list with Das Turm, meaning ‘The Tower’.
Located at Wienerberg str. 7, 1100 Vienna, on the 22nd floor of the Immofinanz Tower, Das Turm offers some of the best dishes in the city, as well as the most spectacular views.
The place is suitable for groups between 20 and 60 persons and imagine how a rooftop party would look like.
The restaurant is open from Monday through Friday, from 12:00 to 14:00 and 18:00 to 22:00.
We recommend the spiced steak tartar and cod fish, and all of their exclusive wines.
9Pes.co
Next on our top list is Pes.co, a fine dining restaurant located at Innere Stadt.
The restaurant offers an unique food experience based on the high quality of the ingredients in their Italian cuisine.
Among their unique, tasteful meals are included Vitello Tonnato (roasted veal with tuna sauce and capers), Specchio Del Pescatore (mussels, scallops, squid soups, cold seafood salad), Pesco Fritto (mixed fried fish: prawns, squid, calamari with crispy vegetables) and Tagliata Di Tonno Con Verdurine Croccanti (tuna filet with crispy vegetables).
Pes.co received only positive reviews, such as: 1) ‘Good pasta and even better pizza! Offerings for kids are great too! The tiramisu and chocolate souffle are top notch!‘
2) ‘If you like authentic Italian food, I guarantee there is no better place in Vienna. The best evidence I can offer of this is that the place was filled mostly with Italians who happen to live in Vienna.
Good, friendly service too. You’ll be comfortable in just about any common language. You can range from cheap to expensive here, ordering anything from basic pizza to multi-course Italian entrees.‘
8Fabio’s
You can find Fabio’s at Tuchlauben 6, 1010 Wien. The luxury restaurant was opened in 2002 by Fabio Giacobello, and today is one of Vienna’s most popular dining spots.
Decorated with black leather seats, dark wood, distinguished lighting, exquisite wine bar and VIP seats, Fabio’s offers Mediterranean dishes created by Chef Christoph Brunnhuber.
We recommend venison with sage gnocchi or crispy pork with orange pesto.
And because we think of you, Ealuxers, you should know that the restaurant is often booked weeks in advance.
In this case, reservations are a necessity.
7Edvard
This restaurant located at Palais Hansen Kempinski, at Schottenring 24, has received 1 Michelin star and 15 Gault-Millau points.
With simple, yet sophisticated culinary treats, Edvard offers an unique experience for all the food lovers out there.

Located not far from Mariahilferstrasse, M Lounge has a laid-back atmosphere, good service, as well as reasonable prices.

As the team at Loca says ‘Better eat better!’, the restaurant is the ideal place for those who look for not too heavy food.
The staff is very friendly and helpful, and can help you choose delicious wines from local wineries.
Loca’s owner also acts as a waiter. It’s easy to see the passion he has for his restaurant.
The small number of tables, the intimacy and the decent portions of food make Loca one of the best restaurants in Vienna, perfect for couples.
3Le Ciel
As you already figured it out, there’s a certain dress code if you wish to dine at Le Ciel.
Located at Karntner Ring 9, Le Ciel offers panoramic views from the 7th floor of the Grand Hotel Wien.
Here you can enjoy creative dishes with unusual combinations of taste, as well as excellent wines.
Restaurant Manager, Guenter Moser, makes sure that every guest that arrives at Le Ciel feels absolutely comfortable.
Along with the 3, 4 or 5-course-menu and a weekly changing menu, guests can also choose the Business Lunch Menu.
2Steirereck
When it comes to extraordinary dishes, Chef Heinz Reitbauer takes things to another level.
This awesome restaurant, located on the banks of the river Wien in Vienna’s central park, has always been in the Chef’s blood, as his parents first set up Steirereck in 1970.
Steirereck is Vienna’s only 2-Michelin-starred restaurant, and it offers an elegant dining space, as well as a classy smoking area called the ‘Red Saloon’ and private rooms that can accommodate up to 25 people.
Did we mention about the spectacular wine cellar with 35.000 bottles? How cool is that?
