Ribs of Vienna – best ribs

Ribs of Vienna is one of those places you may have discarded as a tourist trap too quickly. The restaurant attracts a lot of tourists, and you may find a pretty massive line outside the restaurant during busy lunch hours, but (and here’s the but) the ribs may be the best you’ve ever had! Keep that in mind when you’re snubbing your nose at the place. For 18 years, this big-ass restaurant buried underground in the 1st district has been priding itself on it’s ribs. Looking at the menu, we feel like we’re in a Disneyland for rib-lovers, as our eyes dart up and down the long list of spare ribs in it’s varying prep’ styles and sauces. What draws most underground below the arched roof is their ‘1 meter spare ribs’ claim to fame (we feel like that deserves to be blinking on some big billboard in neon lights somewhere). The top hits at Ribs of Vienna are ribs in the flavours of ginger, dijon, and diabolical. In December, the restaurant is bringing a spicy Christmas flavour in the name of ‘gingerbread’ spareribs to the menu…MMMM, nothing more seductive than some festive fleisch!
