EDVARD: Refined Dining in the Heart of Vienna
Tucked inside the historic Anantara Palais Hansen Vienna, EDVARD is more than just a Michelin-starred restaurant — it’s a thoughtful expression of local flavor, global inspiration, and quiet sophistication.
Under the leadership of Head Chef Paul Gamauf, who took over the kitchen in late 2023, EDVARD continues to impress with seasonal tasting menus that reflect a deep respect for nature and ingredients. Many of the elements used in the dishes — from herbs to wild plants — are foraged or harvested by the kitchen team themselves. Nothing goes to waste: ingredients are preserved, pickled, or transformed into creative low-waste drinks for the non-alcoholic pairing menu.
The restaurant’s warm, elegant interior sets the tone for a dining experience that is at once intimate and inspiring. Chef Gamauf, a Vienna native, brings a distinct sense of place to the menu while welcoming culinary ideas from around the world. Sardinian handmade dumplings, paired with artichoke and koji, make an appearance alongside a carefully curated wine selection that highlights local winemakers.
Guests are taken on a culinary journey that celebrates regional products and embraces international influences, all with a strong commitment to sustainability. With its continued Michelin recognition and refined atmosphere, EDVARD remains one of Vienna’s most distinguished destinations for gourmet dining.
