Overall great experience - Edit
Very good place to try some traditional Austrian food made vegan! I tried the Schnitzel with potato salad and it was super good. Is a great place to discover the local food as a vegan person. They have also a Mediterranean Summer menu with very delicious food as well. Good food quality and nice sized portions. The owner and staff are very friendly and attentive.

Es war richtig, richtig gut! Der Chef ist auch vorbei gekommen um nachzufragen ob wir zufrieden sind und wir hatten ein nettes Gespräch. Für neue Ideen war er auch offen, ich komme bestimmt wieder!

Schnitzel vegan? So gut, wie sonst nirgends!! - Edit
Großartige Küche!
Read moreTraditionelle (österreichische) Speisen aber auf vegane Art. Schnitzel und Blunzngröstl (natürlich 🌱) haben wir schon gekostet und waren begeistert. Personal ist herzlich und professionell. Großartiges Lokal, das wir noch oft besuchen werden.

not pleasing - Edit
I really dislike to give an all vegan restaurant a bad review but my experience with this restaurant was not very pleasant unfortunately. Staff and atmosphere was okay but the dishes weren‘t. I had a house salad with vegan camembert and as main dish lentils with dumplings and smoked tofu. The house salad was basically a mixed salad, with very sparse seasoning. The potato salad within the salad (common among austrian mixed salads) was good, as was the camembert, admittedly. However, under the term house salad I expected something special, a specialty of the house, so to say. The main dish, also a rather simple dish, also had no spices in it. What a shame. In my opinion lentils are really versatile and go along with very different spices. I really looked forward to once again eat a great dish of lentils with dumplings and smoked tofu, as this is such a great meal to me every now and then. Disappointment. It even lacked salt. The dumplings were okay but surely not anywere near a dumpling ought to be in a cuisine. I probably won‘t go there again. Fortunately, Vienna offers many alternatives (also traditional cuisine).

Dear Avocouple,
Read morethank you for your honest review. We are sorry that our food didn’t match your taste. In terms of lentils we totally agree, there are great dishes out there with lots of interesting spices like cumin, turmeric or ginger. However, we serve traditional Austrian food and therefore our main dishes are not seasoned with foreign spices. But we understand that everybody has a different preference, so please don’t hesitate to talk directly to our service staff. Salt and pepper are always available, the kitchen can provide extra spices and if you still dislike the dish, we’ll adjust the bill.
Kind regards,
Team Velani

that potato salad...wow - Edit
I really liked the potato salad. I can eat it every day. I liked that they have special national food items. My mushroom and dumplings dish was at first pretty cold, but when they changed it, it was totally good. The "Schnitzel" was good, crispy and tasty. The dessert "Knödel" was so amazing. The staff was nice and I would definitely come back to eat a lot of potato salad

Good Austrian dishes! - Edit
I liked the menu a lot, my favourite was the schnitzel I would definitely recommend that and the kaiserschmarrn dessert!
Read moreThe gulasch wasn’t amazing I felt the soy pieces were a bit gummy but the sauce was very nice.
It’s a bit out of the centre but definitely worth it :)

Austrian and international dishes - Edit
We tried Wiener Schnitzel, Viennese Goulash, Brazilian skewers and Blunzengröstl. As starter they served some vegan Feta with olive oil and bread for free, which was really great. As mentioned from others before, the skewers were a bit disappointing but I would say everything else was reasonably priced and very tasty. I think the interior is a bit uncomfortable and it gets pretty noisy as more people are talking. The staff is very friendly and I would definitely come back again.

Schlechtes Preis/Leistungsverhältnis - Edit
Das Lokal liegt in der Nähe von 2 U-Bahn Linien und ist somit öffentlich gut zu erreichen.
Read moreInnen ist es bodenständig und gemütlich eingerichtet.
Leider hat uns die Qualität des Essens nicht begeistert. Die Speisen waren für den verhältnismäßig hohen Preis eher mittelmäßig.
Die Sommerrollen schmeckten leider nicht mehr ganz frisch und eher trocken.
Das Wiener Schnitzel hat uns am besten geschmeckt. Die dazu bestellten Bratkartoffeln kamen leider einige Minuten nach dem Schnitzel zum Tisch.
Der brasilianische Grillspieß war ein totaler Reinfall. Für 12,50 wurden zwei Spieße mit fast nichts daran serviert, dazu eine winzige Menge Polenta ohne Würze.
Beim Kaiserschmarrn hatten wir Rosinen dazu bestellt. Leider wurde uns im Vorhinein nicht gesagt, daß diese in Alkohol eingelegt waren. Der Alkoholgeschmack hat leider alles andere überdeckt.
Das Tiramisu war ok.
Wir werden dort daher leider nicht mehr hingehen.
velani1120
Liebe AlexiaFeles, danke für dein Feedback, wir werden versuchen daraus zu lernen. Lass mich bitte kurz zu den einzelnen Punkten Stellung nehmen.
Read moread Sommerrollen
Wenn diese zu trocken und nicht mehr frisch waren dann ist das sicher nicht in Ordnung. Bitte das nächste Mal direkt dem Service mitteilen, wir würden sie in diesem Fall zurücknehmen und nicht verrechnen.
ad Bratkartoffel zu spät
Hier scheint beim Servieren ein Fehler passiert zu sein, das Schnitzel und die Bratkartoffeln sollen zur selben Zeit kommen, bitte um Entschuldigung.
ad Spieß
Auch hier ist die Kritik berechtigt, ich habe das auch mit der Küche bereits besprochen. Die Portionsgröße war nicht in Ordnung.
ad Kaiserschmarrn
Dieser ist in der Karte mit Rum-Rosinen aufgeführt. Wenn du es anders willst, dann bitte unmittelbar bei der Bestellung mit dem Service klären, wir werden versuchen es zu machen.
Generell hatten wir an diesem Tag leider ein technisches Problem in der Küche, das viele Dinge sehr schwierig gemacht hat. Dennoch hat unsere Küche versucht, das Beste aus der Situation zu machen und die Speisen - so gut wie in dieser Situation möglich - für unsere Gäste auf den Tisch zu bringen.
Für die schiefgegangenen Dinge kann ich mich nur entschuldigen. Gerne wollen wir das wieder gut machen, bitte nimm mit uns Kontakt auf, wir werden einen Weg finden.
