NENI am Naschmarkt

We were visiting Naschmarkt and passed by this restaurant which seemed to be popular with many patrons. I checked it out and found good reviews on this restaurant and decided to have our lunch here. We ordered the Neni hummus, almond chicken strips, lemonade and coffee latte. The waitress is extremely helpful and friendly, and our food was served quickly and hot. We enjoyed our food very much and would highly recommend anyone who comes here.

This was a nice Mediterranean restaurant. The service was great. Lots of staff members around and all seem to be helpful . The food quality was on point. The apps all great with the humus stealing the show for us. The main dishes did not disappoint and came out pretty fast. Try the Kunafeh but I would ask for it without the topping as it the flavors did not mix well with lemon yogurt or whatever that was. Majority of the seating is outside and they do have some shade areas but in the heat it did not help much and there is no air conditioning inside the restaurant. Overall food was great and recommend this place if you are visiting.

Honestly, the food is decent, but it’s definitely not worth the price—18€ for a cheeseburger with soggy fries and 17.50€ for an average-sized shish kebab. It feels like you’re mostly paying for the restaurant’s name. Even the customer service isn’t redeeming; the staff at the Naschmarkt branch seem rather unhappy, except for one server (unfortunately, I didn’t get his name). I couldn’t tell if it was due to working on a Sunday or a general lack of synergy. There’s little finesse, and they don’t even offer a friendly smile. On a positive note, coffee and dessert are good. I’d probably only recommend it for after-dinner drinks.

We came here for dinner and drinks, and we had to come back a second time for brunch/lunch - that’s how good the food was! Atmosphere is also great, service pretty fast, we very much enjoyed sitting outdoors in the evening. HIGHLY recommend the Jerusalem plate with hummus, chicken, and those amazing grilled/caramelised onions - oh my! The crispy chicken with almonds and fries were delicious, the hamshuka as well although perhaps a bit hard to finish as one person’s main dish and might be better shared. I loved the mango lassi drink too, fresh and not too sweet.

A very generous portion, we have ordered two dishes and it was hard to finish. Hummus is very creamy, mango hummus was like wow! Each dish had a tasty mix of dressing. Ideally to book in advance but also possible to come and wait to be seated

One of the best Mediterranean food I’ve tasted in a while (the Jerusalem Platter and Knaffe would be my top recommendation). The outdoor seating makes the atmosphere relaxed and chill, and the waiters are very friendly and helpful too! (Average “eye-contact-to-service” time is also short, iykyk) Definitely worth a try!

We traveled through Europe for 2 weeks and this was hands down the best meal we had! From the vibrant ambience in Naschmarket to the friendly waiters to the delectable food, it was a stellar experience throughout. I would rate this 10 stars if I could!

The food was delicious, you get big portions, hummus was super creamy and falafel was 👌🏻. You might have to wait for a free table for a bit, but the queue moves very fast. They only accept cash!

I heard people rave about this restaurant, but I was a little disappointed. I got the jerusalem plate and it didn't blow me away. I liked how they combine different flavors, but overall, the quality of the chicken, pita, and humus just wasn't there. I also had an interesting experience. They took my half eaten food away while I was in the bathroom. They told me to pay 10 euros instead. Thank you.

Neni is delish! I'm so glad we ended up here for dinner. I'd put it in our list of ideas and wasn't sure we'd make it as we had so many ideas and bookings. I love Mediterranean food and this place just does it right! We ordered the mezze trio platter which is vegan and soooo tasty with their fresh pita. My friend ordered the Jerusalem plate and I had my fair share of it, the chicken and spices were so good I couldn't stop eating it. I could probably eat here everyday, given the chance. You'll be hard pressed to find a tastier meal in Wein. Going to Naschmarkt is nice but Neni is the highlight no doubt.

Such a cute location and restaurant. Excellent service. Amazing food and drinks. I highly recommend it. Here is the picture or the mesa I got. Cash only.

The place as such has a great vibe and the food was truly amazing and authentic. It's a pitty that the service was rather bad, slow and very far away from being customer-oriented.

This food is out of this world good! Who knew? I didn't. But now I do. The flavor profile is complex and amazing.

We tried the entire menu. Besides Sabich plate with falafel you get disappointed. The Sabich plate with fried eggplants, egg, hummus and falafel for 13€ is worth ordering. The rest can be skipped. The service is rude and not welcoming, but the food comes fast. It's worth a try :)

Went for dinner and brunch the next day after. Evening: came after 2130 for dinner after a long day trip to hallstadt. We were def hungry, got seated right away, and ordered shortly after that. Pros: - deconstructed chicken shawarma dish is magnificent. The seasoning on the chicken is perfect and the vegetables in the dish are abundant, tender and goes well with the sauce - service was attentive - lots of outdoor patio seating, hardly ever a wait Notes: - opens later than market hours - falafel is nth fancy, keeping it legit - cash only

Located in the Naschmarkt this is an Israeli restaurant serving modern and classic Israeli food. One of the new trends in this part of the world is Israeli restaurants and I was told by a local Israeli friend in Munich about this place. We stopped here for brunch and it was ok. The menu is relatively small for brunch and I chose the Shakshuka for brunch which is eggs cooked in a rich tomato sauce. I also ordered a mint ice tea for drink which was nice. The Shakshuka arrived and the eggs were hard boiled which was a disappointment. This dish usually comes with runny eggs so that you can blend in that rich yolk with the rest and use pita bread for dipping. The flavour if the tomato base was nice. There is outdoor and indoor seating. On warm days you can sit outside and enjoy people watching. Prices are reasonable here and all in all it was an ok experience. The food did not blow me away but I am willing to give it another go.

The restaurant has English menus... just ask. Also they only take cash. The avocado toast was very tasty. The sourdough toast was moist and chewy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The avocado was flavorful and complimented the sourdough quite nicely. It was hot when we stopped by and we got a liter of the ice tea with mint. It was sweet and refreshing but not overly sweet. The hummus plate came with two pieces of pita. This meal was plenty for two people. Highly recommend this place if you are in the market area.

What a perfect stop in the market for an afternoon meal or snack! This was some of the best hummus and pita I have ever had. My friend and I ordered the hummus trio which contained the original, beet and mango curry. All of which took me by surprise! So much flavor and paired so well with the hot fresh pitas. We also ordered the falafel and it was perfectly semi crispy and warm served with a sauce. The lemonade was delightfully refreshing and not too sweet. We had a great time here, and wish we had a similar place to this back home. They made us move tables just 5 minutes after seating us which was frustrating, so docking a star for that.

So good!!! Right in the middle of naschmarkt. Israeli food. The Israeli breakfast was delicious. Organic eggs with labneh, olives, avocado, cucumber salad, and fresh piping hot homemade pita bread. So good!!!! I thought the apple cinnamon crepe was good but nothing special. I loved the salmon avocado toast with beet hummus. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Cash only.

If you want an amazing brunch and your are by the naschmarket this is your best option here! They have amazing Middle Eastern food, and they have this food tower for two that will be the best breakfast/brunch/lunch you will ever have. Sitting outside was very pleasant, the service was very good and seemed like they enjoyed working there, and food was amazing! High recommend if your in the area and want a good place to eat at!

Very popular, trendy middle eastern restaurant. CASH ONLY. Shared the trio dip appetizer, two chicken dishes, and chicken salad which were all delicious with huge portions. Pita bread was super soft and fluffy. Also ordered aperol spritz and a bottle of local white wine. Cute waiters!

Good food and fast service We came here because it was recommended by the receptionist at our hotel and we weren't disappointed. Even though it was lunchtime and the middle of the week, the restaurant was busy and there was a queue to get in. We both had the Tages Teller - the daily special which consisted of a zucchini cream soup and a kebab with hand cut potato chips. Who would have thought that zucchini soup could taste so good? The kebab was delicious and came in a pita filled with a tasty hummus and the hand cut chips were excellent. Even though it was busy, the food came out really quickly and the daily special was excellent value.

I was nervous but the pulled beef burger was Amazing!!! Service was great, they also have waiters who speak English considering I came across the country.

Fantastic quick lunch at Neni's! Stopped in to take a break from the hectic market experience and was delighted to have a table along the main market walkway. I found this restaurant on a list of places to visit for great food and I was happy to experience just that. I was seated quickly and enjoyed my Aperol Spritz and Espresso to start. For my main - I thoroughly enjoyed the Sakuska specialty of roasted vegetables on sourdough. Since returning home I have attempted to recreate this dish and it is obviously not the same as Neni! Looking forward to trying another restaurant again from the restaurant group.

Came by here for lunch while exploring the city. It has the most people in the market and had people waiting for tables. We got seated rather quickly. I ordered the Jerusalem teller and my dad ordered the sabich. Both dishes were made very well with their homemade hummus. There was plenty of hummus so I wouldn't order more as an appetizer. The sabich has some shaved green peppers if I'm correct and they were spicy! So if you're not a fan of spicy foods I'd tell them to take it out. I would come back here again to try their breakfast. I've heard that their shakshouka is the best thing in their menu. Their three different hummus platter and acai bowls sound good too

Wanted to make our visit to the city a memoRable one and decided wanted to check out the much raves about neni! We got seating outside. The food was out of the world! Never miss it if u r in the area

Yum. I loved my dish here. I got a salad along with the hummus trio platter. Definitely buy some extra nan with your hummus, it was delicious.

Ate at Neni's today while walking through Nachtmarkt. The food was good (hummus was amazing) but the service wasn't so great. We ordered the Tel Aviv dish and the Jerusalem dish which was plenty of food for 2, though we wish we had more pita. Overall, would recommend since the food is great and the atmosphere is cool, plus the location is super convenient

Great place for humus. We had Jerusalem teller and shamshucka. Both taste wonderful. Pita bread is fresh and hot. Portions are big enough. I recommend you to make reservation. It's popular place. Also they have good breakfasts. They have really good tea, what is not common in Vienna. I would recommend to visit this place.

Neni is one of the many restaurants located on the Naschmarkt in Vienna. The smells of the spices that wafted from the dishes drew us to this popular restaurant, so we sat down and ordered a few Mezze dishes to share: a baked sweet potato with arugula salad, a Moroccan artichoke salad with pickled lemons, and, my favorite, a baked eggplant with tomato, egg, and pita bread. While this wasn't the best Middle Eastern food I've had by far, it was certainly a great choice for a nice, light lunch on the Naschmarkt. My one complaint is that the service was quite slow and not particularly responsive, as we had to call the waiters several times in order to order and pay our bill.

A really solid breakfast/brunch/snack/coffee option if you're around the Naschmarket. My friend and I split the breakfast for two, which came with a breakfast sampler rack with scrambled eggs, pita, fruit platter, dips, coffee/tea, and two glasses of prosecco. Prosecco wasn't the best, but all this for around 18 euros was fantastic! I also got the cafe melange, and it was also quite good. The service was quick and efficient and the outdoor seating area was awesome!

This place was delicious beyond words! Great vibe, cool interior. I highly highly recommend coming here. We had and absolutely loved the cauliflower, lentil soup, hummus with lamb and the veggie sabich! Super happy and super full.

Hmm where should I begin? From hot waiters, the location or the food... I'm from U.S and decided to check out Naschmarkt during our Vienna trip when we ran into this restaurant. It is nicely located in the middle of the market and you can just take a break from shopping and enjoy their delicious food. Not only the waiters were really nice they were gooood looking too :) The food was really delicious. My dad got lamb patties which comes with this freshly baked yummy breads and I got Jerusalem Teller. I loved my dish and my dad's food was super good too. Overall I enjoyed my lunch there and I recommend this place to everyone.

I expected a good meal. However the Jerusalem dish had no taste, maybe added more garlic to the humus. My wife had a Rueben Sandwich and it was great.

Food: After a semester exchange and multiple trips back to Vienna, Neni is by far my most frequented restaurant in the city. Having eaten here before and after going vegan, I am so impressed by the many vegan and non-vegan options. For my omnivorous friends, I can highly recommend the signature Shakshuka dish (incredible middle eastern tomato and egg dish, still suitable for vegetarians!). While that's always been my staple, on my most recent visit I opted for the house-made hummus and tofu burger and was not disappointed! I'd also recommend the Limonada on a hot day & perhaps an iced soy latte as well :) A highly unique menu, making it fun to bring friends who are looking for something more than a schnitzel in Wien. Location: Located in the heart of the famous open-air market in Vienna (called Naschmarkt), Neni is incredibly convenient and easy to get to either from the Kettenbrückengasse exit on the U4 line, or by taking a short walk from Karlsplatz. When the weather is nice, ask to sit outside to enjoy the lively market culture - it seems all of Vienna is here come summer! Service: Although the service isn't as quick as I'd expect in my native America, it is very standard for Austria/Europe. To me, what the staff may lack in the over-attentiveness I'm accustomed to stateside, they make up for in patience with my broken German (they all seem to speak fluent English, I just try to practice a bit) and willingness to talk through vegan options. There also seems to be quite a neat family-owned-business culture with Neni and her sons' pictures all over the restaurant. Pricing: Quite standard for a decent restaurant in Vienna. I'd expect to spend around 15 euros. However, note that Neni is CASH ONLY - something relatively standard in Vienna, yet difficult for this American to remember (there are ATMs nearby should you forget).

Good food, awful stuck-up waiters. Our waiter was such a jerk to us. It was like the second we asked for plain tap water, which isn't frowned upon in Vienna, it was such an inconvenience for him. We weren't just sitting at a table and drinking tap water. We got two cocktails, an appetizer and two full meals! We're not just smoking on the patio drinking water for free. What a prat. Sad because the food was actually pretty decent.

Good place to stop while exploring Naschmarkt. We got the Lamb kebab and Hummus plate. Highly recommend the Lamb plate. Hummus was decent and came with soft pita.

The food was good, but the service was awful. We ordered quickly, but our waiter forgot our food and we even didn't get our drinks. We asked 2 other members of staff, but they both replied that we needed to ask our first waiter. We couldn't reach our waiter however, since he was busy putting on a show to the table right next to us. Eventually another waitress helped us out. The manager is very arrogant and was too busy socializing with his friends to help out his staff, who were clearly drowning in work. After dinner, we asked for the check, but we had to wait quite a while for that as well... On top of that it turned out they didn't except cards, so luckily we had just passed by the atm. The waiter deemed it necessary to make a joke about 'if we wanted to pay this check' while pointing to another, very high bill. After all this... It was a joke we definitely couldn't appreciate. Needless to say, we will not be coming back here.

A friendly fellow Yelper in Vienna (Wien) provided some options for restaurants in Vienna, one of which was Neni. This turned out to be a very good choice. Perfect for a meal on the lighter side as compared to meals of Schnitzel and Ghoulash that we had earlier in the visit. Neni has a bit of a Middle Eastern influence in the food. Neni is located in center a large street. There are a few bars and restaurants to choose from. It is filled with tables, seems as many as they can fit into an atticy type space, on a second floor. There is a bar on the first floor. Could be some outdoor seating if the weather was warm but I'm not sure. Food was very good. Started with a dish called Hamshuka which was hummus topped with a spicy meat chili (lamb and beef) served with some bread. Interesting combination as I typically don't see hummus served with meat. It worked. Next I had an caramelized eggplant dish called Karamelisierte Melanzani. This is served with basmati rice. Ordered a side of chicken with it which went well. The chicken was served as grilled chicken pieces (as if pulled off a kebob, but not). The eggplant had a bit of a spice to it. Nice. The area around Neni was interesting as well. There were a lot of bars and restaurants to choose from, I think on the south side of the big road, but I not sure actually. Good option to the Stephanplatz area.

Offered us an English menu, very quick service and food was pretty good! We ordered the shakshuka and acai bowl, good light start to the day.

Get the Israeli breakfast!! So good! Cool spot, good food. Whack service. Guys are nice, but probably to cool to be servers. They barely come over, and then when they finally do.. ask you if you want more coffee then they forget to even bring it . Hence only 4 stars, otherwise this place is awesome, at least for that Israel breakfast!!

Three hungry students just landed in town, half dead from hunger wandering Vienna for a bite...and what luck we had when we found this place, or did it choose us? Regardless, the deep house beats and purple tinted ambiance captures your attention immediately. With a dedication to spice and flavors of the middle east, we were more that esctatic with our dishes of generous portion sizes. I had the caramelized eggplants, sauted to a flavorful perfection, served in a semi solid/ soup prepartion. The sauce is a wonderful balance of sour and sweet that is best consumed with the chewier balsamic rice and chicken (an extra). As others have mentioned, service does not disappoint and the staff appears young and in the know. Cool music plus aired, LA oriental decor makes for a pleasing sight. And Be sure to hydrate with a glass of Zwickl red beer... Goes down easy almost like apple cider. Cheers

Stopped here in naschmarkt and was very pleased with the babaganoush. This was the only thing I ordered mainly because there are so many other things to eat in naschmarkt that I didn't want to fill up in a restaurant. Only thing is that I don't think they have enough pita to go with the spread. The pita itself though is fluffy and amazing.

I've lived in Israel and while the food was good, everything else was unacceptable. For an appetizer I was sharing, they gave us one pita to split... I'm not a bunny rabbit. Three people = 3 pitas math genius... Also, there were plenty of tables being given away to those without a reservation, but apparently we were only good enough for sitting outside... sorry not sorry for looking like a tourist--it's because I am asshole, and nice one too that believes in tipping. Trust me, hummus places are a dime a dozen so get off your high horse, nachon? Also, wait service terrible, only saw waitress once or twice and she had a painful look on her face like she'd rather be home Netflix and chilling than doing her job.

one of the best places in Vienna. Israeli food at his best. often crowded and it seems that people often reserve some tables there. it would be nice if they could serve water in bigger glasses.

Kind staff, took time to help me find a nice, shady spot. Delicious Greek Summer yogurt and cappuccino- plus they had soy milk which was nice! A little pricey, but very nice.

Excellent food and service. Price is not too bad compare other place. It is on market place. Breakfast will be assume! This area has lots of different food you can taste on it. Please come in the morning or lunch time.

Neni is a great place to get middle eastern food in Vienna. It is in the Naschmarkt but at the very end so it is a little quieter but I loved the bustling market vibe. Everyone was getting the hummus sampler tower, so we did too and it was really good. The entrees were also really tasty. We did feel a little rushed, but they may have been due to the fact that it was busy and we were American :) Make sure to order wine from the Wachau Valley - Grüner Veltliner - it is so good!

Neni serves high-end middle eastern food. On par with some of the best middle eastern that I have ever had. Prices are not bad. Comparable to any of the other sit-down restaurants at the Naschmarkt. If you are in the mood for sit-down, higher end middle eastern food - this is the best you will get in Vienna.

Fantastic food and atmosphere. Go for breakfast for two if you are there in the morning. It's busy even in early morning time. Great service and food. Tasty.

There's some construction going on at the moment near the Naschmarkt, and we grew weary of pushing and shoving through the crowds poking along. We decided to sit down & give Neni a try. Food was great -- Israeli, I think (or maybe just Middle Eastern). Nice selection of wine by the glass. Especially great if you need a change from heavier foods in Vienna like Schnitzel and cake. this place is absolutely perfect for lunch on a warm afternoon.

Came here for the first time , and I really like the setup of the Resturant and the style of it. Very nice staff and good atmosphere. We had the three different flavor of humus the white and yellow were good but not as the pink one, and we also had the beef burger which is the best I had on my life with sauce inside it and we also had the chicken teriyaki salad it was nice but you need a good teeth to chew .. over all it was a 10

Fantastic creative Israeli food in an energy filled environment. Staff is friendly and efficient. This gem is a must when visiting Vienna.

Lovely food, lovely atmosphere and attractive prices. That is what characterize my visit to Neni am Naschmarkt. The service was fast, efficient and friendly, while the food was really delicious. The three falafels were good in both taste and consistency. My 'Jerusalem plate' was heavenly too with a large amount of creamy humus, perfectly cooked chicken and oriental spices. Their pita is very good too. Prices are really low compared to both quality and quantity.

I've been there twice now and food and prices have never disappointed me. The staff is fast and friendly (hard to find in Vienna) and the quality of the food and drinks is appropriate for the price. I wish they had some more vegetarian options that don't have hummus or that sesame paste which also tastes like humus. The chocolate cake is divine! And the fact that it's all non-smoking inside will make me come back for sure. Reserve a table before you go or you'll be disappointed by a long wait. I don't give it a full 5 stars because the noise level makes a conversation difficult and the seats (bench) are quite uncomfortable.

One of my best experiences so far. I had homemade bread with grilled vegetables and humus and it was super fresh and delicious! Their homeemade ice tea was also great. I would definitely recommend this place.

Grungy, but cool, middle-eastern food shack in the middle of the Naschmarkt. We stumbled upon it by chance, looking for breakfast, and were glad; the food and the service were excellent.
