Apron

It’s honestly quite hard to write a review for this place because my experience was a bit of a mix. The atmosphere is great – casual fine dining done right. It feels refined, but not overly luxurious or intimidating. It’s easy to settle in and feel comfortable, which I really appreciated. Service is excellent – professional, warm, and attentive to detail. The team explained the menu clearly and made the whole dining process smooth and enjoyable. As for the food, I had mixed feelings. One thing I really enjoyed was the kitchen’s generosity – we were served multiple surprise greeting dishes throughout the meal, and I genuinely liked every one of those. However, the actual courses from the main menu didn’t fully convince me. Considering the overwhelmingly positive reviews and the Michelin star, I found myself surprised. I even re-read the Michelin Guide afterwards, but I couldn’t quite connect with what was described. I guess this just shows that taste is incredibly personal – and a Michelin star or glowing reviews don’t guarantee you’ll love it. You’ll receive a card listing all the ingredients used in each dish, which is a nice touch. But even then, I struggled to understand how the flavours and components were meant to come together. Some combinations felt unclear in concept, and overall, we found the dishes a bit too salty. One piece of advice: the restaurant is very generous with extra dishes from the kitchen, so I’d definitely recommend going with the 5-course menu instead of 7. With all the additional items, the full experience already takes over 4 hours – which can feel a bit long unless you’re really prepared for it. Is it a good restaurant? Yes, I believe it is. Does it feel like a Michelin one-star experience? I personally have some doubts. Would I return? Probably not.

The service was exceptional! The food was great as well, so much flavour, and you can see all the hard work put behind each creation. The presentation as well was great. I had the 5-course menu and it felt iI was given much more. A great experience, thank you to the whole team.

Another magnificent dinner in Vienna for us. Apron delivered excellent food on a high level of performance. Everything we tried was tasty and well cooked. I would personally alter a couple of things but this all comes down to personal tastes. Service was professional and attentive. Overall, a very pleasant experience which I would gladly repeat.

What can I say, a first class dining experience from beginning to end. The quality and taste profile of dishes were outstanding; pairing unique flavours so seamlessly. This is the restaurant that kept giving with multiple amuse-bouche, all delicious! After 3.5 hours we were stuffed. The service was impeccable and friendly. Couldn’t recommend highly enough; a must in Vienna :)

The food was phenomenal, as well as the service that was above and beyond. I would definitely recommend anyone put this on your must try list.
