Mraz & Sohn

Mraz & Sohn is a Michelin-starred restaurant in Vienna’s 20th district that has earned considerable acclaim for its inventive, irreverent, and deeply personal approach to fine dining. The restaurant is a family operation — the name translates simply as ‘Mraz and Son’ — and that familial warmth permeates every aspect of the experience, from the welcoming, unpretentious dining room to the engaged and genuinely enthusiastic service. The kitchen, led by Markus Mraz and his father Ewald, takes creative risks with confidence, producing dishes that combine unexpected flavor and texture contrasts, playful cultural references, and a strong foundation of classical cooking skill. The tasting menu changes frequently, driven by seasonal availability and the team’s creative momentum, ensuring that regular guests always encounter something new and stimulating. The approach is never gimmicky — experimentation is always in service of pleasure — and the technical command that underpins each dish is immediately evident. The wine program is thoughtfully assembled and reflects a genuine curiosity about natural and small-producer wines from Austria and beyond. Mraz & Sohn has developed a dedicated following among Vienna’s food community who appreciate a restaurant that delivers Michelin-level cooking without the formality or self-seriousness that often accompanies it. It is an ideal destination for those who want to be challenged and delighted in equal measure.
