Fine Dining Above the Rooftops of Salzburg
In the stylish ambiance of The Glass Garden Restaurant, you will experience culinary excellence at the highest level. Crowned with a Michelin star and 4 Gault&Millau toques, the restaurant combines the finest gastronomy with one of Salzburg’s most spectacular panoramic locations.
Beneath the unique glass dome, you can expect not only an unparalleled view of the Old Town but also a space of extraordinary aesthetics. The centerpiece: the hand-blown sculpture “Chrysolite Aqua Tower” by Dale Chihuly – a work of art that harmoniously combines elegance and modernity.
Executive Chef Simon Wagner stands for a cuisine based on excellent products, a distinct signature, and creative compositions. For both lunch and dinner, you will experience exclusive menus – from classically inspired to refined vegetarian options – which impress with artisanal precision and aromatic depth.
The Glass Garden is one of the few Michelin-starred addresses in Salzburg. You can enjoy fine dining in a private castle high above the Old Town, with cuisine by Simon Wagner and views over the city’s rooftops.
