About the Vibe
Rosi is what happens when you take a century-old Viennese Beisl and hand it to people who actually care about vegetables. Till Wörner and Emanuella Ndue kept the vintage wooden bar and the creaky charm, then filled the menu with some of the most inventive plant-based cooking in the city — think celery blue cheese churros and leek in miso broth. Go for the "Chef's Choice" sharing menu, order a glass of Pet Nat from Benedikt Strasser's natural wine list, and settle in like you're dining in a friend's living room.
Why it's worth it

A Century-Old Beisl Reborn as Vienna's Most Exciting Vegetarian Kitchen
Rosi is the kind of place that makes you reconsider everything you thought about vegetarian food. Set in a historic Gasthaus on Sechshauser Straße that stood empty for the first time in over a century, Till Wörner and Emanuella Ndue have turned it into something that feels both deeply Viennese and completely fresh. The old wooden bar is still there, the vintage furniture creaks in all the right ways, but the kitchen is doing things like Castelfranco rolls in Meyer lemon marinade, leek in miso broth, and celery blue cheese churros that would make any carnivore forget about meat.
The "Chef's Choice" sharing menu is the way to go if you want the full experience — it lets the kitchen show off its range, and every plate that lands on the table feels considered without being precious. The natural wine list, curated by Benedikt Strasser, is a genuine highlight; ask for a Pet Nat and you won't be disappointed. Weekends bring the "Rosi Brunch Club," a rotating menu that's just as creative and shareable as the dinner offerings, and the coffee — sourced from GOTA Coffee — is taken seriously enough that Wörner did a barista course before opening.
Service is warm and unpretentious, and the whole place has the feel of dining in a friend's living room. It's open Wednesday through Saturday for dinner, with weekend brunch hours that start at 9:30. This is a true neighborhood spot in Rudolfsheim that manages to be innovative without losing its soul — and with a 4.7 Google rating from nearly 650 reviews, the locals clearly agree.

Rosi, c'est le genre d'endroit qui vous fait revoir tout ce que vous pensiez savoir sur la cuisine végétarienne. Installé dans un historic Gasthaus de la Sechshauser Straße qui est resté vide pour la première fois en plus d'un siècle, Till Wörner et Emanuella Ndue en ont fait un lieu à la fois profondément viennois et complètement nouveau. L'ancien bar en bois est toujours là, les meubles vintage craquent de la bonne manière, mais la cuisine propose des plats comme les rouleaux de Castelfranco à la marinade de citron Meyer, le poireau au bouillon de miso ou les churros de céleri au fromage bleu qui feraient oublier la viande à n'importe quel carnivore.
Le menu "Chef's Choice" à partager est la meilleure option pour vivre l'expérience complète — il laisse la cuisine exprimer toute son étendue, et chaque assiette qui arrive sur la table est réfléchie sans être précieuse. La carte des vins naturels, signée Benedikt Strasser, est une vraie réussite ; demandez un Pet Nat et vous ne serez pas déçu. Le week-end, le "Rosi Brunch Club" propose un menu tournant tout aussi créatif et partageable que le dîner, et le café — fourni par GOTA Coffee — est pris au sérieux au point que Wörner a suivi une formation de barista avant l'ouverture.
Le service est chaleureux et sans prétention, et l'ensemble donne l'impression de dîner dans le salon d'un ami. C'est ouvert du mercredi au samedi soir, avec des horaires de brunch le week-end dès 9h30. Un véritable joyau de quartier à Rudolfsheim qui parvient à être innovant sans perdre son âme — et avec une note Google de 4,7 sur près de 650 avis, les habitants du quartier sont clairement d'accord.
