If you surprise your partner with an unusual restaurant, you should take him or her to “Das Kritz”. This very small restaurant with around 30 seats is located in an extraordinary ambience in an official building. It is new, very elegant and freshly decorated. The space of this restaurant has a lot of natural light due to a large number of windows.
The rest days are Monday to Tuesday. From Wednesday it will be open to guests from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. (kitchen until 9 p.m.). Available on Sundays from 11:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (kitchen until 2:00 p.m.). This gourmet atmosphere is characterized by its motto: “For us, enjoyment comes first: we rely on fresh ingredients, homemade Austrian cuisine and a warm atmosphere.” I can confirm this personally, because if you’re looking for fresh cuisine with a small menu, this is the place for you. The restaurateurs offer freshly tapped beer, which is rather unusual for a small restaurant. Furthermore, it conveys the feeling of being invited to friends’ houses, simply an atmosphere like at home.
It is also worth mentioning that the operators give the guest an insight into their partner and supplier list. For example, you can order vegetables from Weingut Windisch, Transgourmet and Rungis Express. The meat is supplied by Wiesbauer and Thorhof Fisch & Wild. You can also get the fish from Thorhof Fisch & Wild and Rungis Express. The “Kritz” works with seven different wineries: Niki Windisch, Weissinger, Edwin Weber, Kolkmann, K + K Kirnbauer, Krutzler, Zöhrer, Alphart, Thomas Schwarz. Bread and pastries are supplied by N11 Patisserie.
Menu
If you like to eat Austrian cuisine, this is the right place for you. Kritz has a general and a seasonal menu. The main menu consists of five starters – from beef tartare to organic grass-fed beef with a quail egg. A beef broth, smoked trout, vitello tonnato, a pink veal boiled beef with tuna and limoncello and, for vegetarians, a melanzani tartare. The seasonal menu only offers three starters: a beef tartare with pumpkin and truffles, a pumpkin cream soup and a baked sheep’s cheese. The snacks are very unusual because they offer, for example, wild boar sausages and mini gram dumplings. In the seasonal menu, the restaurant offers escargots and veal scones with root vegetables and napkin dumplings. The main course variation has six dishes, from schnitzel, beef goulash, beef cheeks, paprika chicken, lake trout and cheese dumplings,
The season menu, in turn, only has two main courses, which currently includes pumpkin gnocchi with goat cheese and chervil, as well as pink duck breast with cranberry croquettes, pumpkin and Jerusalem artichoke, and heirloom potato. The desserts are available in two versions. A chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream and berries and a cheese variation with bread and fig mustard. In the seasonal menu, the restaurateurs offer a chestnut panna cotta with speculoos and berries. The Kritz also offers a variety of freshly prepared desserts to choose from in their cake display every day.
My tasting and recommendations
My first choice was the starters of beef tartare with quail egg and sourdough bread, as well as the intermediate course of snails and for the main course I ordered the pink duck breast. The beef tartare was beautifully presented. The beef was juicy, fresh and seasoned in a classic preparation with a vinegar vinaigrette. The quail egg was just right, very juicy and slightly runny. The snails were served on a delicious, warm pumpkin pie with herb butter and a Belper tuber. This dish was seasoned with fresh pepper and parmesan. The chef probably meant very well for me and spread a little more pepper than was necessary over the dish. Personally, I would have liked less pepper and a pinch of lemon juice.
However, the highlight of my culinary journey was the pink duck breast. These were served with lovely little cranberry croquettes, a delicious pumpkin mirror and Jerusalem artichokes. The sauce was too strong for me personally; in my opinion it didn’t go well with this very elegant dish. They were just too strong for my taste. However, tastes vary, so try them for yourself and leave me a comment. The duck was perfectly cooked, very tender and juicy.
Conclusion: Clear recommendation
I would visit this small, idyllic restaurant again every autumn because the cozy atmosphere and the low number of visitors are really pleasant. The tables are far enough apart so that no one feels disturbed. I will try the desserts on my next visit.
What I also find very nice is that two small dishes are offered for small appetites. Enjoy a delicious beef broth with fries for 4 euros and a ham and cheese toast for 5 euros. Children can choose between schnitzel, fish fingers and egg dumplings with a green salad. The Kritz is a small but fine culinary journey hidden in the shell of an official building. The meals for the children are between 4 and 12 euros and for the adults between 10 and 16 euros, for the starters, for the snacks from 8 to 11 euros, for the main courses from 14 to 24 euros and for the desserts from 7 to 9 euros Euro.
