Zum Schwarzen Kameel is one of Vienna’s great originals—a 17th-century address that continues to define modern elegance without ever chasing trends. Whether you’re squeezing into the marble bar for a Champagne and canapé, or settling into the historic dining room for a proper meal, the experience is unmistakably, and unapologetically, Viennese.
At the front, the atmosphere is lively and sociable: guests gather shoulder to shoulder for artful open sandwiches, crisp Grüner, and cocktails poured with style. It’s equal parts deli, wine bar, and theatre. Further in, the restaurant serves elevated classics—seasonal takes on schnitzel, veal, and Austrian game, plated with subtlety and served with sharp, old-world professionalism.
Elegant wood panelling, mirrored walls, and well-worn rituals give the space its charm, but the clientele keep it fresh—fashion editors, finance execs, artists, and curious visitors all share the space with ease.
Zum Schwarzen Kameel isn’t just enduring—it’s alive, and still setting the tone.
