Boxwood brings a refreshing take on bistro dining to Vienna, blending contemporary Austrian ingredients with a distinctly British sensibility. Founded by English chef Ryan Day, the menu is tight, seasonal, and quietly ambitious—sourdough and cultured butter open the show, followed by thoughtful dishes like aged beef tartare, crisp chicken with wild garlic, or a delicate take on fish and chips.
The space is minimal and tasteful, with white brick, wood finishes, and warm lighting that gives it a neighbourhood feel. The wine list leans natural but not dogmatic, and service is relaxed yet engaged.
This is not fine dining, but it is food made with fine dining discipline—ingredients handled with care, plating that’s clean, and flavours that stay with you. For a smart dinner without the formality, Boxwood delivers the goods.
