Pilzstube

Salzburg & Salzburgerland


As warm, woody and endearingly rustic as they come, this old-school Austrian restaurant on a hillside is at its most enchanting when the flakes fall in winter. But it's always an appealing choice for regional classics like gooey fondues, sizeable schnitzels, and venison ragout with Spätzle (eggy noodles) and red cabbage. Kids and vegetarians are also catered for.
