Konstantin Filippou holds two Michelin stars in Vienna's 1st district, built around chef Konstantin Filippou's minimalist philosophy of letting a small number of high-quality ingredients speak for themselves rather than piling on complexity. Signature dishes such as pigeon with beetroot exemplify this restraint, with clean, precise flavors and refined technique taking priority over elaborate presentation. The dining room matches the food's aesthetic, with a modern, understated design of clean lines and muted tones that avoids the ornate style of Vienna's more traditional fine-dining rooms. The wine list is a particular strength, with the sommelier team crafting pairings that often lean toward lesser-known European producers to complement the kitchen's precise style. Given its two-star status and relatively small dining room, tables are in high demand, and reservations should be made well ahead, ideally several weeks before a planned visit, especially for Friday and Saturday evenings. The restaurant operates Tuesday through Saturday and is closed Sunday and Monday.
