You cannot beat a a beautifully cooked steak, and when someone else has cooked it it’s even better. So where should you go in Vorarlberg to make sure you get to enjoy this iconic meal cooked exactly the way you like it. Here are my favourites in the area.
Raetschkachl
Dornbirn
This more up market restaurant and martini bar in Oberdorf is not a steakhouse, but their specialty is steak. All of their beef is carefully selected from local farmers and the steaks are only of the best cut. So if a quality steak is what your desiring, in an intimate dining setting, then this is the place for you.

Patagonia
Gaißau
Near the Swiss border this Argentinean Steakhouse is well known for it’s quality steaks and for good reason. They are delicious. The walls are adorned with farming and cattle artifacts and photos adding to the overall experience. It is definitely worth the trip out to sample their steaks but definitely book in advance.

Illside
Feldkirch
This riverside fine‑dining restaurant is perfect for a date night, and although the atmosphere feels grown‑up, they even mention in their menu that they’re happy to welcome younger guests. What really stands out is how much pride they take in their dishes — not only in how they taste, but also in how beautifully they’re presented. The whole space creates a relaxed, memorable setting for an evening out.
Bex
Riezlern
Bex has a great steak selection with various cuts and sizes, but they also offer plenty of other dishes, so there really is something for everyone. They’re very welcoming to younger guests and dogs are also allowed. The interior is a lovely blend of traditional and modern design elements, and definitely worth seeing.
