The use of the Tyrolean cheese in both pumpkin dishes was creatively delicious and distinctive. I don't recall the price of the pumpkin soup but we both had great big plates of it and thought it very reasonable. Prices were refreshingly modest: €18 for the shared (very filling) risotto, and something like €25-30 for the excellent wine. We could not have been happier with the place, the food and drink, and the people here at Restaurant Schubert. We relied on Klaus to make a recommendation and were delighted with a superb Zweigelt from Judith Beck to go with two seasonal favorites: pumpkin cream soup, here deliciously served with slightly pan-fried dollops of Tyrolean goat cheese rolled in savory herbs and a delectable pumpkin risotto, also with a large topping of cheese, to share. The selection of wines in the establishment's cellar (it is a "vinothek") is excellent. The food is very fresh, well-prepared, and beautifully presented. You might think of the Schubert as a gateway, one that happens to have wonderful food and wine served up graciously under the watchful eye of Klaus, its personable manager, in a deeply historical part of Vienna. Or you can go straight ahead, avoiding twists and turns, and you'll find yourself on an ancient bastion overlooking the university from a house where Beethoven composed four symphonies and the opera "Fidelio." This is a neighborhood redolent of the city's remarkable past, and the Restaurant Schubert is the first thing to greet you as you enter it. The narrow cobblestone streets wind uphill past very old buildings and eventually to a steep staircase that descends to busy Schottentgasse near the Schottentor tram stop. Highly recommended.This is one of the prettiest, out-of-the-way spots in Vienna. The only negative was the prices were a bit expensive. It was all very good, but by this point I was stuffed to the gills and we needed to leave for the concert. After dinner, the dessert arrived which was a scoop of ice cream with fresh fruit accompanied by a cookie topped with rich cream topped with candied apricots. My wife said her sea bass was well cooked and very flavorful. The beef medallions were very rare, and some of the most flavorful beef I've ever eaten. At first I found the sauce thick and didn't care for it, but as I continued to eat it, it really won me over. Mine was beef medallions on top of a bed of linguine in a Chanterelle mushroom sauce. The most spectacular political event during the lifetime of Franz Schubert was the great international congress that convened in his Vienna from September 1814 to June 1815 to cope with the wreckage left by the Napoleonic wars (fig. After the wonderful appetizers, the main course was served. There were a variety of tomato types in the salad making it a very diverse, wonderful experience. The mozzarella was obviously recently made and was incredibly rich and creamy. The soup was rich and creamy with just a hint of sweetness and the bread and ham was the perfect accompaniment. The starters were served, mine was a bowl of what was described as sweet potato soup with a pieced of toasted hearty bread topped with prosciutto.
We reviewed the menu and I decided to get the 3 course "chef's surprise" and my wife got a Caprese salad starter followed by a sauteed sea bass on a bed of potatoes. My wife and I stopped in at Schubert's for dinner prior to attending a concert by the Vienna Orchestra this evening.
