The historic, brick building is adorned with Bavarian décor, collected over the years by the Moser family and dedicated patrons. The hardwood oak flooring complements the ornate, antique metal ceiling, and provides the perfect backdrop for the wait staff, sporting traditional Lederhosen and Dirndls. Upstairs is a quaint bar area used for special events and outside is a front patio, for the perfect al fresco dining experience. A popular menu item is the tenderized, breaded, meat, known as Schnitzel, which comes in several varieties. This pairs perfectly with a cold, frothy Stiegl Pilsner, imported directly from Salzburg, Austria. In fact, Moser’s is the #1 seller of Stiegl in America!

Reviews
-No I’m fine. The food was gross, it was better before, last summer. There’s nothing more I need to say. The soup was disgusting compared to the soup you guys served the last time I was there. I’m alright might want to go back to what you were doing beforehand.
Our server was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive and even tho it got busy- she never forgot about us. Will will definitely be back!
Service was fantastic and attentive, and I loved that the waitstaff wore traditional Austrian-style dresses — such a charming cultural touch. Moser’s is also connected to a café stocked with tempting goodies like assorted chocolates and cakes, so definitely peek in there too.
Since we were just passing through, we only ordered a beer and pretzels, but they were memorable. No cheese dip, but the homemade olive spread was delicious and the mustard was one of the best I’ve had. At just $5 for a pretzel, it’s an unbeatable deal — especially when many places charge $15+ for the same size. (Bonus: I hear pretzels are free on Thursdays with the purchase of a beer!)
As a vegetarian, I was excited to see they offer vegetarian schnitzel — something I couldn’t even find during my actual trip to Austria! I’ll definitely be trying it next time.
Bottom line: Moser’s Austrian Café combines authentic charm, great value, and excellent service in a cozy setting. I’ll absolutely stop here again when I’m in the area — and honestly, I wish they could open one near me.
Homemade spatzel and red cabbage was fantastic! Great service and the waitstaff wears lederhosen on the weekends!
The Austrian dishes are very authentic, cooked just like how an Austrian restaurant would cook them. There is no adapting to the American taste bud. The spätzle appear to be hand made which is rare. Some may find the dishes a bit bland but that’s authentic. Austrian dishes tend to be more blend than American.
The beer selection is pretty good and is representative of the Austrian and Bavarian brews. On tap among the Austrian selection were several Stiegl products and a Hirter which is hard to come by in the US. And above all, they have the Almdudler. “Wenn die kan Almdudler hab’n, geh i wieder ham!”
The atmosphere. The staff members were very warm and welcoming without being pretentiously courteous. May be that’s just small town America but that’s exactly how the servers in an Austrian Gasthaus are. And finally, they play proper schlarger and vollsmusik!!! Not the stereotypical “Eins, zwei, drei, g’suffa” stuff sung in Americanized German restaurants. They play genuine proper schlarger like what people in the Austrian and Bavarian countryside listen to. Think of it as the Austrian and German equivalent to American country music with love stories and trains and animals but no pickup truck.
I highly recommend Moser’s to anyone who wants to experience what the real Austrian culture is.
