In Viennese cuisine, there is probably no dish more characteristic of Vienna than Wiener Schnitzel. Its origin is the subject of numerous legends and continues to be a lighting rod for controversy. There is consensus, however: only premium veal fried golden brown in lard will do. Originating in 1905, Figlmüller serves the one true Wiener Schnitzel and stands for the unparalleled Viennese way of life: a restaurant that's a fine place to chat and celebrate and that has a great menu and selection of local wines. Today the restaurant is in its fourth Figlmüller generation and is run by brothers Hans Jr. and Thomas Figlmüller.
