Johann Gunther Holder - Hohenthurn

Always worth a visit. hausmannskost at high level. super suppern very well made and tasted. a lot. the best carving. but also alpe adria kitchen very good with carntner impact like panned calamari. service very attentive the chef very nice and carefree. beautiful playground and garden.

We found this typical Austrian place thanks to the reviews and we didn't think they could really lead to such a good dinner! manager of the very kind and hospitable local, pleasant music, menu in different languages, good variety of choice of food, honest price. really recommended, we will return!Ottime soups and meat!

Restaurant Holder is only a couple of kilometers from our holiday home. When it is a sunny afternoon the garden at Restaurant Holder, which is situated ideal to get this afternoon sun, is beckoning. There, under the chestnut tree, a perfect "Ertzbergschnitzel" with a cold Villcher beer can be enjoyed; or any other combination of food and drink offered on the menu. The kitchen serves hot food throughout the day from lunchtime till dinnertime, except on Tuesday and Wednesday, when the restaurant is closed. The restaurant is family run. Mr. Holder as host and Mrs. Holder as chef in the kitchen ensure a perfect meal experience.

In September, the garden of Restaurant Holder basks in the sun (on a sunny day of course) most of the afternoon. As hot food is available throughout the day, it is tempting to have a late lunch or an early dinner in Restaurant Holder's garten. As the food is well prepared Carinthian and Austrian cuisine (expect ample portions),the service of the host is impeccable and add a large jar of cold Villacher beer, when the sun is in the sky, a bee-line to Holder's garden is indicated.

We know Restaurant Johann Gunther Holder for some years (see my reviews) and are confident to expect well prepared tasty Austrian food in a soothing atmosphere, served by a friendly host. That's why we will visit this restaurant more than once while on holiday in this area. However, when we settled down at Holder some days ago, it appeared that in April a special Steak menu had been added to the well known menu of the restaurant. I elected to order from the Steak menu and this steak dish with trimmings was so tasty, succulent and well prepared, that I can only award a 5 point rating. Well done and till the next visit.
