Magdalena★★ Michelin The motto here is "raw, rugged, regional." Chef Dominik Hartmann and his team delight diners with modern seasonal cuisine that strikes an impressive balance between natural simplicity and creativity, complexity and a pleasing sense of groundedness. Great emphasis is placed on regional sourcing, with a preference for small-scale producers. There is a fully vegetarian seven-course surprise menu, with the option to add two extra courses. The house-made bread with butter is extremely moreish, as is the interesting combination of beetroot – oven-baked and puréed – with fruity-tart fermented blackbe17.8km

focus ATELIER★★ Michelin Patrick Mahler and his team offer a unique culinary experience in the form of an exciting six- or eight-course set menu.

FischerstubeBib At this long-established restaurant, Alain Koenig serves up dishes that are pleasingly down-to-earth and packed with flavour.
