One of the great pleasures of going on a holiday is being able to enjoy some really exceptional food. In Innsbruck you are spoilt for choice by a vast range of gourmet restaurants offering superb cuisine with regional and international flavours. Each of them is striving to provide the perfect environment for a fine dining experience, be it in traditional Tyrolean style - or in a sophisticated urban setting.

Schöneck

Schöneck

One of the most attractive and exceptional culinary venues in town is Alfred Miller’s Schöneck – inn since 1899, a picturesque restaurant near the Innsbruck Weiherburg with an enchanting garden and great views. Schöneck has been one of Innsbruck's leading restaurants for many years now. The small, exquisite selection of dishes - you can compose your meal choosing from two set menus - is outstanding with regard to perfection and creativity, a harmonious blend of local and international cuisine.

Sitzwohl

Sitzwohl

Centrally located within the former Gilmschule building, this stylish eatery with its almost intimate ambience is managed by Elisabeth Geisler and Irmgard Sitzwohl. Their inspired cuisine is marked by exquisite simplicity, an aromatic and refined blend of regional specialities and rich Mediterranean flavours, in short a perfect treat for all those in search of a quick lunch or planning a relaxed night out with friends.

Das Schindler

Das Schindler

Come here for stylish interior design and unique first floor views views onto bustling Maria Theresien Street, as well as the mouth-watering menu featuring exquisite Austri-an dishes with a refined touch - such as beef tartare topped with fried quail egg, crisp Wiener Schnitzel or linguine with black truffles.

Lichtblick

Lichtblick

Located on the top floor of the stylish Rathausgalerien town hall and shopping mall, it qualifies as one of Innsbruck’s most spectacular gourmet havens simply for its view. Here also the food is on a truly elevated level: Inspired by vast skies and metropoli-tan flair, the menu surprises with a visionary blend of Austrian cuisine, Mediterranean flair and Asian flavours. The adjacent 360° wine bar and lounge is under the same management - and a great place to sample fine wines while enjoying fabu-lous panoramic views of Innsbruck and the surrounding mountain scenery.

Wilder Mann

Wilder Mann

Wilder Mann in Lans keeps scoring top points for its authentic Tyrolean and Austrian cuisine prepared from locally sourced ingredients, many of them produced at the family farm. At this sophisticated country inn you can expect classic local treats such as ‘Tafelspitzsülzchen’ (prime boiled beef in aspic), ‘Kalbszüngerl’ (veal tongue), ‘Ter-laner Weinsuppe’ (beef broth with cinnamon croutons and wine) or ‘Tiroler Bauern-gröstl’, a rich, pan-fried potato dish.

Wilderin

Authentic regionality is a key at die Wilderin restaurant in Innsbruck’s historic Old Town. For manager Claudia Kogler and chef Alexander Reis and his team it is essential to know exactly where ingredients are produced and by whom. This concept is clearly reflected in the menu, where you find modern interpretations of classic Austri-an treats including tender boiled rump of ‘Tyrolean Grey’ beef and succulent roasted duck or a delicious dessert prepared with raw milk joghurt and gingerbread.

dengg

dengg

Stylish and minimalistic in appearance, the restaurant and its inviting bar section are a popular meeting point for local foodies in appreciation of an inspired culinary ap-proach. Here you find a delicious mix of traditional local treats and international cui-sine - ranging from ‘Tiroler Beuscherl’ (ragout of veal lights) to turbot in champagne sauce or grilled coquilles St. Jacques on a leafy sesame salad.

Café Sacher

A glance at the menu – featuring rich Viennese soup, authentic Wienerschnitzel or fried chicken alongside hearty Tyrolean Gröstl with potatoes and meat – takes diners back to the culinary pleasures of the Habsburg era. Original Sachertorte is of course the dessert of choice, and during the summer months you can enjoy these classical delicacies in an intimate outdoor setting at the inner courtyard of Innsbruck’s Imperial Palace. An exquisite range of carefully selected wines complements the traditional culinary treats, lovingly prepared with predominantly locally sourced ingredients.

Sensei

Sensei

At the stunning Sensei sushi bar you get to explore the culinary realms of faraway lands. Located in Maria Theresien Street, it fascinates at first sight with its outstand-ing interior design reminding of a shiny, black lacquer jewellery box. The stylish set-ting is matched by excellent food that goes beyond the usual offer of raw tuna and rice. Here you are treated to skilfully prepared Asian seafood and fish, exquisitely flavoured dim sums and top quality meat dishes.

Die Mühle

Die Mühle

Located to the south of town lies Mutters, home to rustic country restaurant Die Mühle, where top-rated chef Tamar Kacer is rattling the pots and pans after perfecting his trade with renowned culinary masters to the likes of Alfred Miller and Johann Lafer. The tempting selection of expertly prepared dishes includes various tantalizing delight for the palate, including charcoal grilled Wagyu rib-eye steak.
