The inn known as “Zur Dankbarkeit” (“The Gratitude”) has been a beloved classic for a long time in the Pannonian restaurant scene. It is a popular meeting place for everyone who loves delicious, down-to-earth food.
This restaurant is a real hidden gem. It is a family run restaurant offering excellent food and service. They also have wonderful wines from their vineyards. There are seasonal variety built into the menu and some favorite standards. To begin with, order the wonderful Jewish liver pate…to die for.
I have been there often will go many times more.

My first visit with gourmet friends some five years ago left me with truly good impressions, even though just one evening following the famous (then) Michelin starred restaurant on the other side of Neusiedl lake. So I brought here my family (all grownups) for a late summer lunch even though the Austrian restaurant reviewers at Falstaff have recently notably reduced their score.
Parking right opposite easy to find. Temperatures truly summer high, so we went to the small Terrace (»garden«) in the back where the air was far cooler. The waitress only came to the restaurant when we were already seated. It was an afternoon hour between lunch and dinner, but the restaurant boasts being open for business throughout the day, so I was a bit surprised. Restrooms nice and very well kept.
Unfortunately, it seems that also the chef was taking an afternoon nap home at the time, as the dishes ordered and served were well below our expectations and even the current reduced Falstaff score. We were the single guests, so I would have expected great attention to our glasses, but… Wine list covers Burgenland very well, but somehow it proves my case that emerging wine tourism in the region still has a lot to learn from Italy and Spain – in its very center you do not expect to pay abominable markups for local wine produced within a twenty miles circle. Double the price in the local wine store? Shame! So instead of Tiglat we drank To with the producer only 2 miles away. As to the cuisine level, 9 on a 1 to 20 scale is more than enough for what we tasted that afternoon.
Again, it could be that the kitchen was running on ancillary staff during those hours. Perhaps the waitress had at the time also some additional work to do, like making up the tables inside. But then, I would kindly recommend the owners to close down the restaurant part between lunch and dinner and avoid such guests' disappointments. This is not a cheap fast food eatery!

Rustikale Gemütlichkeit im Restaurant mit Kaminecke, Tandlerstube mit Kachelofen, Garten mit Grillecke – ganz gleich, wo es Ihnen in unserem Haus am besten gefällt: Wir servieren Ihnen feine Speisen, die den Geschmack des Seewinkels auf den Gaumen zaubern.
Two or three years ago we stayed here for a few days, and as we enjoyed it so much we always intended on going back. Our two nights there recently were not a disappointment. The restaurant was excellent, as were the wines and breakfast. The staff/owners were exceptionally friendly. We hope to go back again before too long.

A wide selection of excellent food and friendly personnel. When you sit in the garden you can watch the horses and cattle grazing in the nearby fields. A really relaxing atmosphere.

Landgasthaus in Apetlon
We arrived in late afternoon after a full day cycling with the family. Sun was still shining, which helped the cozy setting of a shadow table under the grapevine. The waiter advised us well in the local white wines (which are very nice, btw), and the dished are just that level higher than the traditional local restaurant: not simply the schnitzel, but from mangaliza-pork (delicious) or from veal. The Rostzwiebelbraten was pretty refined. A place to make a detour for!

We had a late lunch here. Unfortunately the kitchen was closed but the could make a very nice Greek salad and a nice lemon sorbet which was nice in the heat. We loved the garden and the homemade wine.

What a treat after a whole morning of biking and birdwatching! A choice of light and sasonal dishes as well as traditional hearty food - we had great pasta with peppers and local sausages, salad with polenta roles, tasty local beef with bread dumplings. Children menus available.
Illmitzer was not crowded during the lunchtime. The waiter spoke excellent English and was very accommodating! Very affordable prices - great value for money.

We went for dinner and we were very disappointed with the quality of the food.The vegetables looked and tasted as if they came out of a bag of frozen mixed vegetables, same with the sauces, probably made from a cheap powder base. Prices, however, were the same as in other much nicer places in Illmitz which offered better quality food.

Zweifellos handelt es sich hier um einen der besseren Buschenschanken in Illmitz. Der Chef nimmt die Bestellung auf und macht auf den Gast anfänglich einen etwas mürrsichen Eindruck. In Wirklichkeit ist er aber ein ganz netter Kerl. Er wird von Familienmitgliedern unterstützt und das, was auf der Speisenkarte angeboten wird, hat jedenfalls Hand und Fuß.
1/4 l Kaiserspritzer zu € 2,00, 1/4 l Marillen-Nektar ebenfalls € 2,00. Als Brotzeit probierten wir die Gowerl-Haus-Platte (€ 9,80) und waren angesichts der Vielfalt dessen, was auf den Teller kam, sehr angetan. Fleisch vom selbst gezüchteten Mangalitza-Schwein kommt hier ebenso auf den Tisch wie dasjenige vom Ungarischen Steppenrind aus dem Nationalpark. Alte, bedrohte Haustierrassen kann man eben im Großen und Ganzen nur dann erhalten, wenn auch ein wirtschaftlicher Nutzen gegeben ist.
FAZIT:
Guter Buschenschank mit gesteigertem Genussfaktor. Man sitzt schön im Freien und freut sich auf den nächsten Besuch.
Empfehlung!

Illmitz Anfang September ist ein schwieriges Pflaster: Entweder ist man mit der Weinlese beschäftigt oder man hat in der Gastronomie schon ausreichend verdient und einfach keine Lust mehr auf Gäste. So kommt es, dass manche Gasthäuser plötzlich zwei statt einen Ruhetag haben. Und so landet man nach längerer Suche schon etwas entfernt vom überschaubaren Ortskern beim Heurigen Holzhammer – und in einer anderen Welt. Der ungarische Kellner ist schnell zur Stelle, freundlich, gut gelaunt, beherrscht den Schmäh und berät bei der Weinauswahl. Was im Glas ist, überzeugt: Vom Gemischten Satz über den Muskateller bis zum Sauvignon Blanc. Knackig frische Weine, trocken ausgebaut. Ungefragt kommt auch die Karaffe mit Wasser auf den Tisch. Der warme Kümmelbraten mit Zwiebelsenf war butterzart, die gefüllten Kartoffelbällchen sind knusprig und mit reichlich Salat garniert. Als die Sonne versinkt und die frühherbstliche Kälte aufzieht, werden Fleecedecken an die Gäste verteilt. Fazit: Am Ende der Tourismussaison eine Oase in der Illmitzer Servicewüste.
