Our Brixner Sudtiroler Gasthaus located under the arcades of the old town in Brixen is personally managed since 1896 by us. Enjoy South Tyrolean hospitality in a modern setting on the ground or in a traditional tavern-restaurant on the 1st floor. The origin and the naturalness of all products used is very important to us - we use in our kitchen exclusively Tyrolean quality products and cooking without flavor and Glutamate. This offer is complemented with daily fresh products and desserts from our own pastry shop. We look forward to your visit! Family Fink and stuff

Accidentally ended up in the fine dining restaurant upstairs. A little underdressed and treated no differently to anyone else. Waiter (Federika) was helpful and spoke english well enough to understand our humour. Food was delicious. For an Australian I thought it was very well priced. Complimentary appetizer was a nice touch and bread as part of the service charge was quality. (It seems a service charge per person is fairly standard in the area).

Went there with a group of 7 colleages. We all ordered drinks and meals. Two out of seven had ordered starters. The waitress said that she would bring the starter salad out at the same time as someone else's schnitzel. ? Not sure what that meant but it was a statement. Sure enough a few minutes later dinners started arriving along with my salad. As we finished our starter and the rest finished their meals, our main had yet to arrive. About 10 minutes later my main arrived. So me and the other guy whose main arrived late ended up eating on our own. Super lame. Either everyone should wait for the salad to be finished before serving mains, or serve the salad at the same time as the mains. Not rocket science. Very disappointing.

Nice location (difficult to find though); genuine and well prepared food; short, but good menu; atmosphere a little bit shabby (poor toilettes, anonymous dining hall); slow service; prices not correct (they do not charge for service, but a bottle of mineral water was 5 euros!!); small portions (you have to get a full meal to be satisfied). They offer a fixed menu for 26 euros, that we did not choose. We drove 1 hour to eat there, we expected a better experience, after Reading the reviews; a little bit too pricy for what they offer.

Modern tyrolean kitchen with mediterranean influence
Reviewed By gilds282 - Sydney
We visited twice for lunch because we were so happy with the service and food. We were travelling with our 7 month old daughter and the restaurant was very welcoming and accommodating. They have a selection of chairs for children, from ones that clip onto the table for infants through to booster seats for older children. The first time we ate from the main menu, the food was well cooked and a good portion size, and the presentation was quite fancy. The second time we had pizza which was a more casual lunch but equally delicious. Would highly recommend.

We found this little wine bar in one of the back streets off the main square. The barman recognised our accent, Australian, and we talked about his time as a young traveller in Sydney some 20yrs ago and other places.

Banana and Mascarpone were wonderful. So was melone and pistacchio. Just off the central plaza in Bressanone, reasonably priced. YUM!

Hard to find place but good prices and simple, tasty food.
Very good pasta dishes, excellent pizza and sometimes a well stocked salad buffet. Friendly staff. Can be very crowded on workdays as many locals have lunch there. Calmer in the evening.
In the warm season one can sit under a canopy outside.
Most of the times parking is a real pain as the parking lot is simply too small.
Being a regular for more than 5 years now. No complains!
10. Restaurant Finsterwirt Oste Scuro

The Finsterwirt forms part of a family group, that includes the downstairs wine-bar, as well as the hotel Goldener Adler, a short stroll away. The restaurant is on the first floor and has the perfect balance of Tyrolean charm and formality. It isn’t stuffy by any means but it is a very elegant establishment.
The restaurant is part of the Italian Slow Food movement and strongly advertises its commitment to quality, local ingredients.
From the menu I had a cheese “foam” inside a crisp, cheese-basket, with roast veg and salad. Then rose-veal with a breadcrumb and truffle crust. Followed by a special apple strudel, with a baked pastry-crescent, filled with poached fruit. Plus a chocolate covered mini-cake with homemade vanilla ice cream - all on the same plate and all absolutely delicious.
My wife chose the Wiener schnitzel which was superb. The mark of a good restaurant is to do the basics well - and this was a textbook example of how to prepare this dish. The coating was both crisp and dry, with not a hint of greasiness. Supplied with a delicious, semi-sweet berry compote, plus super-tasty potato salad. She finished with the creme brulee, served three ways - with rosemary, chocolate and a regular variety.
The wine we chose was Lyra gewurztraminer from the Nals Margreid winery, as the restaurant had run-out of our favourite. The Lyra “ran it” a very close second. To end the meal we had excellent coffee, as well as an outstanding grappa from the Augustinian monastery of Neustift, a few miles outside of Brixen.
The whole experience was absolutely stunning and completely exceeded my expectations.
I’d recommend you ignore the three negative reviews of the Finsterwirt. As I read them, someone didn't know what they ordered, someone was a bit of a cheapskate and a one seemed to be a “pompous foodie”, whose ego had been pricked. Let me tell you that if you decide not to visit - because of this kind of review - you will be missing a very genuine treat.
