Star Wine List Restaurants in Vienna

Amador

Vienna, Austria

3 Michelin stars

Amador holds three Michelin stars and a consistent place in La Liste's top tier, operating from a winery setting in Vienna's 19th district.

Bruder – Küche & Bar

Vienna, Austria

Bruder – Küche & Bar occupies a specific niche in Vienna's 6th district: equal parts kitchen, ferment lab, and natural-wine bar. Shelves of pickles and preserves signal the cooking philosophy before a dish arrives. In a city where formal Austrian cuisine dominates critical attention, Bruder operates on a quieter, more ferment-driven frequency.

Café Azzurro

Vienna, Austria

Café Azzurro brings a Parisian-Turinese café sensibility to Vienna's seventh district, drawing a design-conscious crowd to Urban-Loritz-Platz. It is the second address from the team behind the quietly regarded Kommod in the eighth district, and it reads as a deliberate expansion of their approach rather than a replication of it. The room sits at the crossroads of Central European café culture and northern Italian style.

Café Kandl

Vienna, Austria

In Vienna's seventh district, Café Kandl occupies a position that few wine bars in the city manage: genuinely bohemian in atmosphere, genuinely serious about the glass. Sitting at the affordable end of the Neubau dining scene, it draws a crowd more interested in what's in the bottle than what's on the ceiling. For natural wine drinkers and curious drinkers alike, it reads as one of the Seventh's more compelling stops.

Cucina Itameshi

Vienna, Austria

Inside the historic Dogenhof on Praterstraße, Cucina Itameshi works a precise negotiation between Italian and Japanese cooking traditions: open-fire technique alongside umami-forward sauces, handmade pasta in the same kitchen as XO, burrata reframed through an Asian lens. Vienna's second district hosts few restaurants willing to commit this fully to cross-cultural tension, which makes this one worth tracking closely.

Doubek

Vienna, Austria

2 Michelin stars

A two-Michelin-star address in Vienna's 8th district, Doubek operates at the serious end of the city's creative fine dining tier. Chef Stefan Doubek's kitchen applies precise international technique to Austrian ingredients, producing a tasting format that sits comfortably among Vienna's most decorated tables.

Fuhrmann

Vienna, Austria

A Michelin Plate-recognised Beisl in Vienna's 8th district, Fuhrmann has been run by Barbara and Hermann Botolen for years as a dependable address for modern Austrian cooking with a wine list that holds its own. At the €€ price point, it sits in the honest middle of the city's tavern spectrum, where the cooking is taken seriously without the formality of the fine-dining tier.

Gasthaus Stern

Vienna, Austria

At the €€ price point, it represents one of the more compelling cases for traditional Austrian cooking outside the tourist-facing inner districts. Featured on Star Wine List since January 2025, the wine program adds another layer to a direct neighbourhood proposition.

Glacis Beisl

Vienna, Austria

Glacis Beisl occupies one of Vienna's most celebrated garden courtyards, where owner Paul Bodner serves traditional Austrian cooking — pork crackling dumplings, sauerkraut, and Wiener schnitzel — against a backdrop of mature trees in the 7th district. The setting places it firmly in the city's established Beisl tradition, where the courtyard is as much the draw as the food on the plate.

Herzig

Vienna, Austria

1 Michelin star

A Michelin-starred modern cuisine restaurant occupying a converted 1920s auction hall in Vienna's 15th district, Herzig operates Wednesday through Saturday from a set menu format that runs in two sizes and accommodates vegetarian arrangements by prior request. Star Wine List recognised it with a White Star for its wine program. The address is Schanzstraße 14, a short distance from the city's inner-ring dining cluster.

Kornat

Vienna, Austria

Kornat occupies a quiet stretch of Marc-Aurel-Straße in Vienna's first district, holding a White Star recognition from Star Wine List as both wine bar and restaurant. Among the first district's wine-forward addresses, it operates in a register distinct from the city's high-concept tasting-menu circuit, positioning itself as a space where the wine list drives the evening as much as the kitchen does.

Lokal im Hof

Vienna, Austria

A courtyard wine bar in Vienna's 4th district, Lokal im Hof occupies the inner courtyard of the former Alpenmilchzentrale dairy building on Weyringergasse. Opened in 2022 by sommelier Andreas Lux, who arrived from Tirol via the kitchen of chef Alexander Mayer, the address has become a reference point for wine-led dining in a city with many ambitious wine lists but far fewer spaces that let the architecture do its share of the work.

Mama Konstantina

Vienna, Austria

The neighbourhood restaurant of Michelin-starred Konstantin Filippou sits in the residential calm of Vienna's 19th district, offering contemporary cooking at a register distinctly different from his downtown fine-dining flagship. Recognised with a Michelin Plate in both 2024 and 2025, Mama Konstantina brings Döbling a serious kitchen without the ceremony, making it one of the more interesting addresses in the outer districts.

MAST Weinbistro

Vienna, Austria

A Michelin Bib Gourmand-recognised wine bistro in Vienna's 9th district, MAST Weinbistro pairs a farm-to-table kitchen under Chef Lukas Lacina with a wine list that has placed first and second on Star Wine List two years running. Hosts Matthias Pitra and Steve Breitzke run the room with the kind of front-of-house conviction that turns a neighbourhood address into a serious destination.

Mraz & Sohn

Vienna, Austria

2 Michelin stars

A two-Michelin-star address in Vienna's 20th district, Mraz & Sohn operates as a father-son collaboration built on Modern Austrian cooking with a demonstrably irreverent streak.

nineOfive Vienna

Vienna, Austria

In Vienna's 4th district, nineOfive operates where serious wine culture and pizza meet without apology. A list of more than 300 bottles, ranked among Austria's top wine destinations by Star Wine List three consecutive years running, gives the wine program a weight that most dedicated wine bars would envy. The food holds its own without pretending to be something it isn't.

O boufés

Vienna, Austria

The more relaxed counterpart to the Michelin-starred Konstantin Filippou next door, O boufés brings Mediterranean and Greek-inflected cooking to Vienna's first district at a mid-range price point. Holding a Michelin Plate since 2024 and ranked twice at the summit of Star Wine List's Austria selection, it earns its place in the city's serious dining conversation without the formality or spend of its neighbour.

Oak107

Vienna, Austria

Oak107 sits on Mariahilfer Strasse in Vienna's 6th district, earning a White Star recognition from Star Wine List in 2023 — a signal that its wine program is taken seriously in a city with high standards for both bottle and glass. The address places it inside a stretch of Vienna that has grown more interesting for serious eating over the past decade, away from the first-district tourist circuit.

Palais Coburg Hotel Residenz

Vienna, Austria

Wine Spectator Grand Award

Inside a 19th-century Viennese palace on the Coburgbastei, Palais Coburg houses one of Europe's most ambitious wine collections: 60,000 bottles across 6,000 selections, anchored by deep runs in Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Austria. Chef Silvio Nickol's French-European dinner menu sits above €66 per two courses, placing the restaurant firmly in Vienna's upper-tier fine dining bracket alongside Steirereck and Konstantin Filippou.

Pramerl & the Wolf

Vienna, Austria

1 Michelin star

A former Alsergrund pub converted into one of Vienna's most compelling casual fine dining destinations, Pramerl & the Wolf operates on a surprise menu format driven by ingredient quality rather than ceremony. Ranked #267 in Europe by Opinionated About Dining in 2025 and awarded a White Star on Star Wine List, it delivers serious cooking in an atmosphere that refuses to take itself too seriously.

Reznicek

Vienna, Austria

A Michelin Plate-awarded modern Viennese tavern in the 9th district, Reznicek operates Tuesday through Saturday from 5pm until 1am — hours that signal its identity as much as its menu. Ranked in Opinionated About Dining's Casual Europe list in both 2024 and 2025, and awarded Star Wine List's top recognition in 2022, it occupies the serious-but-unstuffy tier of Vienna's dining scene.

SHIKI Japanese Cuisine

Vienna, Austria

At Krugerstraße 3, steps from the Vienna State Opera, SHIKI offers a seven-course set menu that fuses French classical technique with Japanese seasonal philosophy. The kitchen builds each menu around what the four seasons dictate, working Atlantic lobster, turbot, and miso into a format that sits squarely in Vienna's top tier of fine dining occasions.

Steirereck im Stadtpark

Vienna, Austria

3 Michelin stars

Inside a 1904 pavilion in Vienna's Stadtpark, Steirereck im Stadtpark operates at the intersection of architectural drama and Austrian culinary research. Three Michelin stars and consistent placement inside the World's 50 Best Restaurants top 25 position it as the reference point for serious dining in the city. The menu is built around rare breeds, near-extinct produce varieties, and ingredients grown on the building's own rooftop.

TIAN

Vienna, Austria

1 Michelin star

Among Vienna's upper-tier tasting menu restaurants, TIAN occupies a singular position: a Michelin-starred vegetarian counter on Himmelpfortgasse that competes directly with the city's omnivore fine-dining tier. Recognised by La Liste, Opinionated About Dining, and a 2018 Future Award for Best Veggie Restaurant in the World, it makes the case that plant-based cuisine belongs in the same conversation as any starred kitchen in Austria.

Zum Schwarzen Kameel

Vienna, Austria

One of Vienna's most enduring Viennese institutions, Zum Schwarzen Kameel has occupied its Bognergasse address since 1618, trading on open-faced sandwiches, a serious wine list recognised by Star Wine List, and a standing room culture that draws an unusually loyal midday crowd. A Michelin Plate holder and Opinionated About Dining ranked fixture, it sits in the casual tier of Vienna's dining scene without apology.
