Zum Schwarzen Kameel

Went here for dinner and had a great experience. There was a line in front when we arrived, but it moved quickly and we were seated without much delay. Everything was run very professionally and efficiently. The place was completely full on a Thursday night, which is a good sign. We asked for a table inside, and the atmosphere was calm and refined—no music, just the quiet hum of conversation, which made for a very pleasant setting. Our waitress was extremely attentive and quick. She brought our drinks and food right away and even gave honest recommendations on what to order, which felt genuinely in our interest. We had the Wiener Schnitzel, which was excellent—perfectly cooked and served with a delicious potato salad. We also tried the Tafelspitz, which was good, though the Schnitzel stood out as the highlight. The service throughout was fast, professional, and friendly. With white tablecloths and a classic feel, the place maintains a traditional elegance without being stuffy. It’s a bit on the pricier side, but for the location in the center of Vienna and the level of service and food, it’s absolutely worth it. I would definitely recommend it.

Very popular place cause it was recommend in Michelin Guide - so making reservations is probably a good idea. I was seated in the area with a merch and goos signed by the restaurant. I've had a Wiener Schnitzel with potato salad - very tender meat with a sourish salad which for me was a nice balance. Also had a small sandwiches (with tuna and black pudding) which you can choose from the display - my personal favorite was that with black pudding. Overall I was very happy with the visit.

Nice pastry and sandwiches..everything was delicious..but...... I hate being served a chipped cup for my tea. When I want to ask for the waiter to change my cup, he was no longer around and kept moving to other part of the cafe. It's not nice to have to be super anxious about where you put your lips every time you want to drink your tea. I thought, that it should be a standard, at least, for a high-end cafe like this to NOT serve their customer with chipped cup however small it is.

This spot came highly recommended by a local, and we spotted a Michelin Bib Gourmand sign in the back window—pretty impressive! My partner and I visited this morning, and it delivered. The ambiance is classy, like a refined café, nestled in a busy, upscale part of town with a sophisticated buzz. We had two courses, each item in order of preference: Smoked Salmon with Cream Cheese on Bread – Silky salmon, creamy spread, and a standout start. Egg with Mayo on Bread – Simple yet tasty, with a nice richness. Shrimp Open-Faced Sandwich – Fresh and good, though the bread stole some of the show. (Note: The bread is softer and white-floured, more refined than Buffet Trzesniewski’s.) Austrian Boiled Beef Tafelspitz – Excellent with horseradish, a hearty highlight. Vegetarian Pasta – Great texture, though the name escapes me—still enjoyable. Overall, it’s a solid pick with a polished vibe and great flavors. Worth a stop if you’re in the area!

A tourist trap. Some locals come here and basically the waiters are serving all the locals first. A lot of waiters spend a lot of time talking to local customers and unfortunately I had to wait over 10 minutes to get a waiter after a long vocal discussion among them. Our table of 11 was imposed a 10% tip that resulted in about 55€ total for a low and unprofessional level of service. Unless you are prepared to sustain a treatment as the classic tourist to be exploited, this place has nothing special to offer. Most wines are very much overpriced.
