Obauer
This lovely establishment dating back to the 15C is located in the heart of Werfen, known for its distinctive castle complex. It has been run by the Obauer family for decades and now brothers Karl and Rudolf are in charge. Their classic cuisine draws on modern influences and uses select ingredients, e.g. for dishes such as turbot and tipsy char, tomatoes, peas, wild raspberries. Choose between the two set menus or dine à la carte. At lunchtime, there is a moderately priced set menu, including tempting classics such as Wiener schnitzel with Pinzgau veal.

TripAdvisor review sample · 4.6/5 · 100 reviews
Located in Werfen, Obauer specializes in classic and seasonal cuisine. Most reviews highlight exceptional food quality, warm service, and a pleasant atmosphere, particularly enjoying the summer garden setting. Dishes like Troutstrudel and Werfener Lamb are frequently praised. However, some negative feedback points to inconsistent execution, such as poorly cooked quail, or subpar wine pairings. A minority of guests criticize the value for money, citing high prices, extra charges for water, and a perception that the cost does not match the portion size or quality. While long-time patrons appreciate its consistent excellence and hospitality, recent reviews indicate occasional dissatisfaction regarding food consistency and pricing transparency.
Suitable for travelers seeking classic seasonal cuisine and attentive hospitality, with advance booking recommended.
