Zum heiligen Josef

Reviewed By Heidi K

We visited this restaurant for the first time on 31st December 2018. Having holidayed in Austria throughout my life, ( I am half Austrian) we have eaten in many places over the years. This restaurant is, absolutely one of the best I have ever been to. The food was delicious, the interior was warm and cosy for the cold winter night. There was a great atmosphere and the staff were so attentive. My son said the garlic soup was the best he's ever had (and he's had a lot). I can only highly recommend this restaurant and we will be definitely returning. Thank you to all the staff :)

Came upon this jewel on the roadside.. and so happy that we did!The regional ravioli were heavenly as we're the calamari, served with a delicious warm baguette. For dessert, the apple strudel was just excellent while the warm crepe with ice cream also a winner.The portions were nicely sized, the service lovely and the bill very honest for the amount, quality and goodness of the food. We spent €30/person (we drank quite a few beers as well) and couldn't be happier! Highly highly recommended. Bravi!! Dear Alina!We are really flattered about your great valutation, we try to constantly to improve our house and food and make it just a little bit better for our guests. Thank you for the great valuation and we hope to see you again in our restaurant! All the best - Elena Wallner

Francobollo

Reviewed By Sandranal

The place is most famous for its pizza, but we didn't feel like eating pizza, so we've ordered some stakes and burgers. They were perfectly prepaired, with topings served separately which was very convinient. Desserts sounded and looked delicious, but we were full, so we didn't try any. The restaurant is very busy, so making a reservation is a must. Prices are reasonable and waiters are very friendly.

Reviewed By melb50ish

This restaurant is in a typical Austrian house with beer garden. A short drive behind Portschach.The food is an excellent example of local tastings. We visited it a few times during our stay in the area. It has grown and expanded in the last four years, at times not for the better. It can get very busy and the staff can be pushed to the limit.However they do a fabulous job under busy times and the food is worth it.

We have been now several times to this restaurant when we were in the area of lake Ossiach. It was always great, they serve delicious local food in excellent quality for a good value. The people are very friendly, too. Last but not least the view over lake Ossiach is just amazing. We will definitively eat there again.

Ofenloch Restaurant-Patateria

Reviewed By Andrew M

We ate here largely by accident, but am so glad we did. It turned out to be one of the best meals of our whole Austrian holiday. The simple "ofenloch" potato dish comprised two enormous, crispy jacket potatoes, with a delicious sour cream, yogurt, herb and bacon topping which, for the price, was simply incredible value. The "Steirische" potato was a single jacket potato, served as above, but with a huge portion of steaming hot vegetables AND two very generous pork medallions which were seasoned and cooked to perfection. This restaurant simply serves delicious food at a very very fair price. The dining area had a great ambience and the owner came out from behind the grill to talk to us about our travels, our plans and to ensure we had everything we needed. It made the whole experience very enjoyable and upheld the traditions of Austrian hospitality. Highly recommended, and if we were staying longer, we would definitely make a return visit. No question! Go. You won't regret it.
