Eckstein has been a long-time presence on the Graz eating scene, but has more recently reinvented itself with a smaller and more selective international menu. This does a culinary loop through Italian antipasti, stops off for some Styrian fare, and moves on to internationally popular meat and fish dishes. It has outdoor summer seating on Mehlplatz for those warm days and nights.
