What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Humboldt offers a charming atmosphere with a strong emphasis on organic, locally sourced ingredients, praised for its creative brunch and classic Austrian dishes like schnitzel. While many enjoy the delicious food and cozy ambiance, some diners have noted inconsistencies in service, with occasional experiences of being rushed or encountering unfriendly staff. The prices are considered on the higher end by some, but many feel the quality and freshness justify the cost.
"Beautiful restaurant and great food with many plant-based options and fair prices. Loved the pumpkin gnocchi, and the chocolate cake was seriously one of the best chocolate cakes I've ever had.
Service was very attentive, though I couldn't quite tell if they were initially rushing me because I was taking a while - I had three different waiters check in in fairy short succession... but they were courteous enough when they figured out I just wanted to take my time. Overall nice atmosphere :)"

"Amazing service at the terrace, I really enjoyed the dinner in summer evening. Food is delicious, but on higher price end. I paid my salad with feta cheese 21€, it was tasty, but cannot say it was worth the money."

"We had Meatballs, Cheeseburger and Schnitzel. The prices were a bit salty. I don't like the Kartoffelsalad which is served with Schnitzel. It isn't the same as traditional ones. I found it dry. Besides that the taste of the meals were good.
The waiters asked too many questions like they never leave you alone. Kinda felt unwanted.
The atmosphere was nice..."

The 12 best restaurants in Salzburg
A relative newcomer to Salzburg’s gastro scene, this bistro always has a good buzz and sends the spirit of an Alpine lodge winging into the future with its rustic-meets-modern mix of dark wood beams, soft backlighting and contemporary fireplace. Already it has a loyal local following for its all-organic, traceable food, which impresses with spot-on classics like Tafelspitz (boiled beef with apple-horseradish and chives) and cheese dumplings topped with fried onions, alongside healthy alternatives like quinoa salad with berries and sheep’s cheese. Organic wines, beers and soft drinks hail from Austria, too.

On the other side of the Salzach river September 2018 saw the opening of a new fully organic, predominantly biodynamic restaurant and bar opposite the museum of modern art inside the Mönchsberg cliff, the Humboldt, a pleasantly modernized version of an Austrian "Gaststube", with geometric dark-wooden interior, a light-and-steam installation serving as a fire place surrogate, green cushions, table-clothes made from felt, and a green-lighted bar. For lunch on weekdays you can choose between two set menus consisting of a soup or salad (your choice), and a vegetarian or omnivore main dish which come at 9 or 11 euros, respectively. In the evening the kitchen emphasizes on Austrian signature dishes like the Viennese Schnitzel (a delicate, crisp, yet melting dream), boiled filet ("Tafelspitz"), and pancakes ("Palatschinken") as dessert (which were quite unexceptional).
