Despite its weekday-only opening
hours, Schnattl is a culinary institution in Josefstadt, particularly beloved of actors and
arty types. The inner courtyard is perfect for summer dining, while bottle green wood
panelling creates a cosy mood inside. The chef plays up seasonal specialities like creamy
chestnut soup and meltingly tender organic beef, matured on the bone and served with
green-pepper gnocchi.
