The location of this restaurant is rather exceptional, housed as it is in beautiful parkland. The building adjoins Schloss Prielau, which was first mentioned in a document dating back to 1425. Anette and Andreas Mayer have been putting their heart and soul into this place for over 20 years. The chef-patron blends classic and creative cuisine, using top-notch ingredients such as Tauern beef, the exceptional quality of which is showcased in five variations: beef tea, tartare, shoulder, fillet and BBQ tongue. Opt for a set menu with fish and meat or a vegetarian/vegan version. In an original touch, your senses are stimulated with house-made aromatic essences at the beginning and end of the meal. The stylish setting is complemented by a skilled service team led by the genial proprietress, whose genuine enthusiasm for hospitality is palpable. The wine picks from sommelier Reinhard Walcher are also on point – the wine list features some beautifully aged vintages. Besides cooking, the owner's passions include hunting and forging knives – the latter can also be purchased here. You can stay overnight in cosy, comfortable guestrooms and suites. Close by is Lake Zell, with its own private lido.
