We are a family . Our philosophy is the highest quality products available from the Agricultural farm and the surrounding region to sell and promote . Uniquely our char caviar we sell of course from the farm in our restaurant and in the best factories in Europe. Benefit from original manufacture family Sicher
Never, ever would you find this magic restaurant by accident! You would not even find the village Tainach (some 20km east of Klagenfurt) and even there the restaurant is well hidden. But as soon as you arrive at the parking area you will understand that this must be a special place. Cars from all over Austria and neighboring countries, normal cars and truly posh cars – so why are they all here?
For decades connoisseurs agree that this is presumably the best fish restaurant in Carinthia. The place is run by the two Sicher brothers, Michael who is the genius in the kitchen and Wolfgang who is responsible for the perfect service and the well composed wine list.
The Sichers have their own fish farm where they breed trout and char, so you can be sure that the fish on your plate still had a pleasant swim a few hours before you came!
Michael uses these fresh fish, small local river crayfish, herbs from their own garden and vegetables and other products from organic farms in the neighborhood. And of course the famous Sicher Caviar, a char caviar which is so exquisite that it recently received the “Coq d´Or” award from Le Gouide de Gourmands in Paris.
Tonight I went there on my own for no special reason – just to enjoy a good fish and a perfect dinner! I started with a clear fish soup with pieces of fish and crayfish, flavored with fresh coriander. A culinary sensation! As main course I decided this time not to eat any of the magnificent fish creations but simply a pan fried char with garlic and parsley potatoes. Cooked to perfection of course. I ended the meal with sherbet variations – three homemade sherbets (cassis, peach and passion fruit) – one better than the other.
A team of pleasant, friendly and efficient waitresses took perfectly care of me although all tables in the garden were occupied. The only downside was that I could only drink to small glasses of an excellent Pinot Blanc from the neighboring Austrian state of Styria because I had to drive back home.

Tremendous choice of menu. Most main dishes include a choice of 2 soups and 3 sweets in the price. Really good prices and especially of the various grill items including fillet steak. Lovely delicatessen food and drinks shop. They sell a particular cake which seems to an area speciality and is called Kärntner reindling

The restaurant attached to the Loving Hut Pension at the Klopeiner See is absolutley delicious. It is part of the Loving Hut chain and so has similarities to other Huts. This one is particularly tasty. The food tastes good across the range - the burgers and fries are perfectly reasonable, the starters are uniformly enjoyable including the fried tofu which seems to be a bit harder to get right but these guys do.
The main meals are excellent. The asian specialties are good. The various Meins are nice and the one this reviewer found a little bland seemed to go down extremely well with some fussy customers on the next table. The Kung Pao is absolutely terrific and is well worth a try. The schnitzel meal is very well crafted, excellent fresh potato salad combined with appropriately crunchy and properly flavoured breaded soya.
It is remarkable that Austria can support vegan eateries but it was noticeable that the patrons were not all hotel guests. The food is really excellent and for those who don't have vegan/vegetarian preferences, it seems to come as a very pleasant surprise.
Part of the appeal to this particular restaurant may be the garden. It is a pleasurable experience to sit outside and there are many passers-by who stop to take in the various animal constructions.
It seems that there are some additional regular visitors in the form of birds. These regulars do a lot of the cleaning up from the floor which is a highly efficient way of doing business and also adds a nice touch to see little birds hoping around.
The restaurant also has a slide and a sand pit for kids. It is a great place to eat for a family.

During a visit to the Griffener Tropfsteinhöhle we had lunch at this restaurant. The menu is variable and includes pizza, pasta, meat and fish. My wife's pasta was great and my kids loved their pizza. I ordered a fish dish which had fantastic taste and excellent presentation. The ambiance is nice with a big Terrace and comfortable places inside. The only negative point (but not specific of this restaurant) is that one is allowed to smoke at the bar, making it not pleasant for the people who don't smoke.

Das Voelkermarkter EUCO-SB-Restaurant ist an die Adeg-Filiale in der Griffner Straße angebunden und bietet eine relativ große Auswahl an alkoholfreien sowie alkoholischen Getraenken. Eine Tafel vor dem Eingang weist auf das aktuelle Menue und die Tagesempfehlung hin. Im Speiseangebot befinden sich Kaerntner Spezialitaeten (z. B. Ritschert), die ueblichen Klassiker sowie einige vegetarische Alternativen. Erwaehnenswert sind etwa das gebackene Gemuese mit Sauce Tartare und der gebackene Kaese (Emmentaler oder Camembert) mit Preiselbeeren. Abgesehen von der eher faden Tagessuppe (oft Nudeln oder Backerbsen) sind die Speisen stets ausgezeichnet. Ein reichhaltiges Salatbuffet existiert.
Man bestellt selbst - es handelt sich ja um ein Selbstbedienungs-Restaurant -, doch wenn nicht zu viel los ist, wird einem das Essen von einer der ausgesprochen freundlichen und herzlichen Mitarbeiterinnen an den Tisch serviert. Die Sanitaereinrichtungen sind sehr sauber.
Ein Besuch dieses Restaurants eignet sich im Besonderen auch fuer Personen, die es eilig haben (Mittagspause) - die Zubereitung der Speisen erfolgt naemlich aeußerst zuegig. Die niedrigen Preise fuer solide Qualitaet (inkl. netter Bedienung) machen das EUCO-SB-Restaurant zu einer absoluten Top-Adresse in Voelkermarkt.

Raucher im Lokal - Geschmack der Mehlspeisen! Diese sind grundsätzlich schon zu empfehlen. Werden allerdings immer kleiner und kleiner. Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte ein Drittel kleiner als vor 10 Jahren noch... Qualität aber ok.

Alter Gasthof ganz neu! Modernisierung liegt zwar schon etwas zurück, aber doch alles wie neu! Umbau mag zwar Geschmacksache sein aber die Küche ist immer einen Besuch wert! Alle Speisen hervorragend und auch noch günstig! Was wird sonst noch gewünscht? Nettes Service kommt auch noch dazu! Fazit: Auf jeden Fall ausprobieren!

Большие порции. Довольно хорошая пицца. Персонал совсем не говорил по-английски. Одно из немногих мест, которое продолжало работать ближе к концу сентября.

Nice walk path, even if you are runner, it is better to run and or join klopeiner see run (5k or 10k race in August). On the south side there is a place for relaxing and sitting out of the full area (and possible to swim out of the paid places)
