We enjoyed a nice evening here - 9 courses. The food is good but with a bit of history of Michelin rates places, there are better ones especially, when it come to value for money. There are high expectations to servicer and food. The dishes are served each on well designed plate which makes everything quite shiny. But there is still a.way to go to make it perfect. Service is not convincing - especially when you recognize, that in both bottles you bought for a bunch of money, there is wine left, when you leave. Finally the chef show up outside of the door of his place, when we left. I have seen more engaged and convincing chefs.on that level.

We had a nice time there but a bit long. It's fix menu, 6-7-8-9 dishes. We ordered 8 dishes and one of them with pigeon. The food quality is awesome. For a big size men, can be a bit small menu. If you plan to go there, dinner will be long. We were able to finish it 3 hours. That's only minus of the restaurant.

The food is absolutely amazing, but I'm afraid the service could be better.
The menu is mainly fish-oriented, and they have a very tasty pigeon as one of the main courses! Each dish is absolutely delicious, and the combination of different tastes is just perfect! The presentation is gorgeous and a real feast for the eyes! This is truly two-star Michelin food!
The only thing that let this place down was the service, which wasn't quite up to scratch given the price. We had to ask several times for the wine menu and it took a little while to get the wine (after two amuse-bouches). We're used to attentive waiters refilling wine and water at that restaurant level, which was sadly lacking here. Maybe this happened due to the restaurant being split into two rooms?
For me personally, the service is an important part of the experience, so I was quite disappointed. It's interesting that the service we got at "O boufes" (his second restaurant right next door) was much better.

Tucked away in a quiet corner of Vienna, Konstantin Filippou offers a dining experience that is both refined and intensely personal. The open kitchen concept, where each dish receives its final touch in full view of the guests, adds a layer of transparency to the experience, though the atmosphere remains somewhat sterile. Service is polished, if not overly warm, with a sommelier whose approach leans more toward upselling than genuine guidance—but at least with a refreshing dose of honesty.

The meal, however, is where Filippou’s vision truly shines. The cured tuna with duck liver and eel, complemented by morel mushrooms, apricot oil, and a delicate foam, is an umami bomb, perfectly layered and exquisitely executed. The Norwegian scallop with almond milk, truffle, and artichoke is sleek and seductive, a dish that lingers in memory long after the last bite. A more restrained creation, the wild-caught zander on beef tartare, with onion powder, carrots, and a duo of sauces—one reduced from veal broth and the other from Txogitxu beef—is technically flawless but lacks the wow factor of other courses.

Then comes the real surprise: a complimentary lobster dish, bathed in grapefruit sauce with a veal jus and Peruvian spices, an exhilarating and unexpected burst of flavors. The pigeon with truffles and brioche sets a new benchmark, surpassing even similar dishes at Silvio Nickol, with the brioche standing out as nothing short of insane. Dessert maintains the high standard—a coconut cake with strawberry and rose sauce, cool and elegant, the perfect way to close the meal.

Perhaps the highlight of the evening, beyond the food itself, is the spontaneous and genuine interaction with the sous chef. Sensing a deeper curiosity, he personally takes over the service from the third course onward, leading to a lively exchange about Vienna’s fine dining scene and experiences across Paris and London. A glass of red wine arrives, perfectly paired with the pigeon—on the house. The evening ends with a thoughtful final touch: two delicate pastries boxed up to take home, a small but telling gesture that reinforces the restaurant’s ability to surprise and delight. Konstantin Filippou delivers not just remarkable food but an experience shaped by creative, thrilling dishes and an honest, warm connection with those who bring them to life.
