Known forCellar RestaurantRomanticHistoricGame
Tucked into a medieval cellar near the Judenplatz, Zum Finsteren Stern is a genuinely atmospheric restaurant that avoids the tourist-trap pitfalls of many cellar venues. The kitchen serves creative, well-executed Austrian cuisine with a focus on game and seasonal ingredients, and the wine list is strong on Austrian producers. The vaulted stone rooms are romantic and historic without feeling kitschy.
