About us
Welcome to Porterhouse. Our specialities are the steaks we are known for, from free-range Angus cattle raised in Argentina. The steaks, our excellent spare ribs and our gambas are cooked on the lava-stone grill. The king prawns are at their best with steak, as surf and turf.
Alongside the steaks we also offer a weekly menu of Austrian and international dishes.
The wine list brings fine wines from leading Austrian growers, and bottles from around the world, from Australia and South Africa to Chile.
Regulars come for a quiet evening for two, a good business lunch, or a private celebration.
Reserve by phone on +43 1 512 81 43, or online via reservier.at.
Wolfgang and Karl Hanzl, the hosts of Porterhouse, look forward to seeing steak lovers and those about to become one.
We look forward to your visit,
Your Porterhouse team
