Restaurant Mesnerhaus

Amidst Austria’s Salzburg mountains lies restaurant Mesnerhaus. With thick stone walls dating back to 1420, this fine-dining location is where past meets present. Mesnerhaus belongs to top chef Josef Steffner and his wife, sommelier Maria Steffner. This results in imaginative down-to-earth gourmet cuisine, accompanied by an outstanding wine list. Next to earning 4 toques, chef Josef’s cuisine received four hoods from Gault Millau in 2007. It makes Mesnerhaus restaurant the perfect go-to place for a gastronomic experience you simply can’t find anywhere else.
