Lukas Restaurant

Restaurant Lukas

Chef Lukas Kienbauer is a shooting star in Austria’s gourmet scene. It comes as no surprise that his very own restaurant in Schärding, named Lukas, is the perfect place to experience the very best that Austrian gastronomy has to offer. The young chef’s innovative cooking style already earned him multiple awards, such as “Best Newcomer 2018” (Gault Millau), 3 hoods and 16/20 points from Gault Millau, 3 forks and 95/100 points from Falstaff, and 4 stars and 90/100 points from À La Carte. In addition, Lukas is featured on Austria’s “100 Best Chefs” list. You can enjoy his extraordinary cuisine in a beautiful minimalist setting, Nordic industrial style. The restaurant offers various dining areas, including a Chef´s Table with a direct view of the open kitchen (for two people), a lounge, and a private section with a single dinner table.

In 2016, at the age of 24, chef Lukas Kienbauer opened his own gourmet restaurant. Growing up in Schärding, there weren’t any fine-dining locations around. That’s why this ambitious chef made it his mission to prove it is possible to start an haute cuisine spot in his small hometown in Upper Austria.

Lukas’ cuisine

At restaurant Lukas there is no menu. Instead, you can choose between a full or a shortened menu. This results in elegant nine-course surprise menus that are playful and sophisticated. Chef Lukas Kienbauer’s menu is perfectly accompanied by individually tailored and seasonal beverages. In the kitchen, he often works with products from his own farm and cooks animals, such as poultry or fish, whole.

Schärding & surroundings

You’ll find restaurant Lukas in the historic center of Schärding. This baroque town in Upper Austria has a lot to offer when it comes to sightseeing. It’s the perfect starting point for excursions to Passau, the “City of Three Rivers” (15 km). The abbeys of Reichersberg (15 km), Engelszell (25 km), and the Alfred Kubin birthplace and museum (5 km) are nearby as well. If you’re looking for relaxation, we recommend the spas of Geinberg and Bad Schallerbach in the area. Other sightseeing highlights in Schärding are the Silberzeile, the Granite Museum, and the Baroque Garden & Orangery.
