Diwan - Vienna

Food is well prepared, prices are great. a reliable place to eat well and at low prices. Not the place to go for a romantic dinner or if you want nice food, but the perfect place to visit Vienna and are hungry and good... Quality is important to you. Or as an everyday place to eat when your work is close.

My husband and I visited this restaurant in our first night in Vienna because it was close to our hotel. The food was delicious and the service was very good. We had a starter and a main meal (meat plate to share) plus drinks and all...for less than 50 pounds. We enjoyed it so much, we went back to our last night and were equally impressed. Although we are not smokers, we thought it was an excellent idea that they had a separate smoker room that keep poor people from standing outside in the icy cold!

When we came in, we asked if we could pay with the card. The man got grumpy and said no. atm is 200 meters from the road. We had money and ordered. He was grim because we don't speak local language. I got our food, which was all right. The owner was happy that we cleared the plate and smiled and said Bye Bye. Sweet man with woman. Passion for food. Good times and full of belly. Enjoy!

Fresh bread, great meat (Kalb, that tastes very different from normal Kebab places from the coal grill ... the place is a gem! Only downside is that they are not open on Sundays ; One word of warning: I stopped eating other Kebab after I...got hooked to this one. It just doesn't make sense anymore. It's a bit like comparing a real burger to McDonalds. Now I've been going there at least once a month for about 3 years.

I lived in Wallensteinstrasse already for more than 2 years, co-existing with many turkish restaurants, shops, etc... I did not realised of Diwan until I took a taxi from the Airport, and the driver, from Libano, told me that there was the best Kebab restaurant...in Vienna in my street (and I did not know!! So today I went and I was totally surprised... the bread is baked in the shop by themselves. My boyfriend even asked for a durum and they not only baked the bread but they have done it from scratch!!! Also the kebab meat (Kalb is being cooked with real wood. Overall, the food was amazingly good, and the place really clean. Totally worth it for a new level of kebab!
