Known simply as "The Bosna Grill," this tiny sausage stand has become a cult destination for locals and international travelers. Find the long line of hungry people in the tiny passageway between the busy Getreidegasse and the Universitätsplatz to try this Bulgarian-inspired, Salzburg-born specialty: two thin, grilled bratwurst sausages in a toasted white bread bun, topped with chopped onions, fresh parsley, and a curry-based seasoning mixture that's been a secret since the owner, Zanko Todoroff, created it more than 50 years ago. In winter, join the locals by taking your warm Bosna next door and enjoying it with a cup of the famous Punsch (orange liquor-spiked punch) from Sporer, the Austrian specialty liquor shop.

His time served behind the line of many of Salzburg's most recognized establishments has taught award-winning Chef Richard Brunnauer the traditions of quality Austrian cuisine, and the elegant preparation of his hand-picked, seasonal, never-frozen ingredients entice a strong local connoisseur crowd. The repurposed World War II bunker, carved into the side of the Mönchsberg, creates an intimate and unique setting in the cleverly lighted main Kaverne dining room. The chef has forged tight relationships with his suppliers—hunters, fishermen, mushroom gatherers, and even grandmother backyard berry gardeners—so you benefit from the very best Styrian beef tartare, Tauern lamb, Alpine char, and Marchfeld white asparagus. A glass from the extensive wine list is best enjoyed in the fresh air courtyard.

This inn opened its doors in 1705 as an example of that newfangled thing, a Wiener Kaffeehaus (Vienna coffeehouse), and was an immediate hit. Enjoying its 11 types of coffee was none other than Mozart's beloved, Constanze, who often dropped in, as her house was just next door. The Tomasellis set up shop here in 1850, becoming noted Chocolatmachers. Feast on the famous Tomaselliums Café (mocha, Mozart liqueur, and whipped cream) and the large selection of excellent homemade cakes, tarts, and strudels. Inside, it's all marble, wood, and walls of 18th-century portraits. In summer the best seats are on the flower-bedecked terrace and at the pretty "Tomaselli-Kiosk" on the square.

This extraordinary Michelin-starred restaurant, set with the ultramodern Hangar-7 and overlooking its gleaming vehicle collection, offers a unique and exciting dining concept: a different renowned chef every month. The guest chefs come from all over the world and serve a mind-boggling array of cuisines—the only guarantees are that the ingredients will be fresh, the set menus (usually at least six courses) will be of exceptional quality, and the check at the end will make your eyes water. The names of the visiting chefs are announced several months in advance, so you can plan your trip to Salzburg accordingly; though getting a table can prove tricky so book as early as you can. If you're very early, or very lucky, you can snag the chef's table in the kitchen for an unforgettable evening.

The Pepper Ship is one of the most acclaimed restaurants in Salzburg, despite being five kilometers (three miles) northeast of the Neustadt. It's in a pretty, renovated rectory (dated 1640) and adjacent to a pink-and-cream chapel. You'll receive a friendly welcome and then settle in to a pampered experience in the country-chic atmosphere, adorned with polished wooden floors, antique hutches, and tabletops laden with fine bone china and Paloma Picasso silverware. The menu changes seasonally. A taxi is the least stressful way of getting here, but if you have your own car, drive along the north edge of the Kapuzinerberg toward Hallwang and then Söllheim.

Whether you're craving a stellar late breakfast (served until 2 pm) or you're on the hunt for a carefully crafted espresso, you'll want to put this lively café on your daytime itinerary. The husband-and-wife team infuses care and quality into each step, from farm to cup, which takes them around the world to meet growers. They roast the beans in small batches at their own Salzburg roasthaus. Brunch dishes taste as good as they look, as do their cakes. Their menu changes monthly to reflect seasonal specialties.

Regionally sourced, top-quality ingredients elevate the traditional Austrian dishes in this inviting Wirtshaus, just north of the Old City. Since 1663, locals have shared mugs of beer from the neighboring Augustinerbräu brewery in these warmly lighted, wood-paneled rooms, adorned with traditional Salzburg-style heating ovens and cushioned benches. Request a table in the cozy main-floor side room and enjoy the juicy Backhendl (breaded, fried chicken), Wiener schnitzel (veal or pork), cheesy Kasnocken, or beef goulash with a “bear-sized” dumpling. Seasonal specialties highlight springtime Spargelzeit (asparagus) and the fall wild-game hunt. Sip homemade schnapps before enjoying Kaiserschmarren (a fluffy pancake shredded, panfried with roasted plums, and topped with powdered sugar).

In a 500-year-old building with vaulted ceilings and windows looking out onto the bustling Getreidegasse, the restaurant of the Blaue Gans Hotel offers innovative, modern interpretations of traditional Austrian cooking. The fresh flavors are evident in dishes like the house-smoked Lachsforelle (salmon trout) and perfectly prepared beef carpaccio. There are always vegetarian choices, too. Ask your server for suggestions from the expertly selected Austrian and German wine list. The modern elegance extends to the setting, and the service is top-notch. Peer into the building's history through the dining room's glass floor, which reveals an old cellar; this was the site of the oldest inn in Salzburg, mentioned in documents from the 15th century.

Sip a Melange (frothy milk coffee) under the shade of the leafy trees at this people-watching coffeehouse institution on the Salzach River. Salads, soups, and toasted ham-and-cheese sandwiches served with ketchup satisfy savory cravings; homemade Topfen- and Apfelstrudel beckon from the glass case of house-made tortes. Marlene Dietrich, Max Reinhardt, Hugo von Hofmannsthal, Arturo Toscanini, and Seiji Ozawa are just a few of the famous faces to grace the terrace, and today well-known locals settle into dark-wood chairs at the small marble tables. Wood panels reach to the lofty recessed ceilings in the main dining area.

Red-velvet banquettes, sparkling chandeliers, and lots of gilt mark this famous gathering place, a favorite of well-heeled Salzburgers and an outpost of the celebrated Vienna landmark. It's a perfect choice for a leisurely afternoon pastry. The most popular choice is the famous house-made chocolate Sachertorte, but there is also a large variety of irresistable cakes. Don't pass up the coffee, which is second to none. Full meals are also served, and the restaurant offers a no-smoking room.

If you really want to enjoy food with a view, drive three kilometers (two miles) north along the B1 Linzer Bundesstrasse to Mayrwies and turn right up through the woods. Here you can take in a view of Salzburg from the mountainside perch of this former Rupertialm (St. Rupert's Pasture), a famous scenic lookout even in Mozart's time. Owned by St. Peter's Monastery, this restaurant allures with the romantic charm of an Alpine chalet. Seasonal specialties of the region top the bill: not only venison and fried trout but heavenly garnishes—cress, elder blossoms, herbs from the meadows, raspberries, blueberries, Schwammerl (mushrooms) fresh out of the forest, and cheese from goat and sheep. For breakfast, you need to make reservations at least the day before; lunch and dinner reservations are recommended but not compulsory.

This Weissbierbrauerei combines the original charm of one of Salzburg's most historic breweries and adds a high-ceilinged, wood-paneled modern bar to satisfy the many locals who consider it to be the ultimate private retreat (so much so that from Wednesday through Saturday it's best to make a reservation). The beer garden really hits the spot on a hot summer day, but all year long you can savor traditional Bavarian style Weisswurst (veal sausages with sweet mustard) as well as the usual array of tempting Salzburg delights.

Named after the former Italian owner of this historic house (note the beautiful small archway passage), this is a top spot for tasting Marzemino, the red wine Don Giovanni drinks in Mozart's opera.

It's worth a detour on the way to Hallein along the B159 Salzachtal-Bundesstrasse about 10 km (6 miles) south of Salzburg to dine at this inviting inn, run by the same family for more than 130 years. Enjoy the cooking, the wine cellar filled with more than 100 different vintages, and the unmistakable atmosphere of this stile Salzburg house with its nicely decorated salons. Chef Ernst Kronreif uses his mother's recipes for the delicious Butternockerlsuppe (soup broth with buttered dumplings), the Kalbsbries (calf's sweetbreads), or the Salzburger Bierfleisch (beef boiled in beer)—all Salzburgian classics and yet always so up-to-date.

A personalized, choose-your-own-breakfast-adventure menu (served until 1 pm) lets you savor several beautifully prepared, whimsically presented small dishes without encroaching on your date's plate. Mix and match two, four, or six sweet and savory choices: venison carpaccio with lingonberry chutney; heart-shape waffle with sour-cherry sauce; or nonalcoholic Bloody Mary shooter with a salmon canapé.

With white-linen tablecloths, candles, flowers, and windows opening onto the street, this is one of Salzburg's most pleasant restaurants. Menu selections consist of local fish, mouthwatering steaks, traditional Austrian dishes, and game in season. The cellar is called the Freysauff but don't be misled; it may mean "free drinks," but you definitely need to pay.

In Maxglan, a famous Austrian "farmer's village," now part of the city tucked behind the Mönchsberg and next to the Stiegl Brewery (best reached by taxi), Alexander Hawranek perfects Old Austrian specialties by giving them a nouvelle touch. The setting is your archetypal black-shuttered, yellow-hue, begonia-bedecked Salzburgian farmhouse, oh-so-cozily set with a tile oven, mounted antlers, embroidered curtains, and tons of gemütlichkeit. The menu is seasonal, so you might not be able to enjoy the signature Beuschl (calf's lungs) with dumplings. Best bet for dessert is the Apfelschmarrn, sliced pancake with apples. In summer opt for a table out in the shady garden.

This cozy Old City restaurant offers some lovely Italian and Mediterranean specialties on its extensive (and expensive) menu. Try the roasted veal chop with truffle ravioli. To save some money, consider coming for lunch when there's a good value three-course set menu (€28). The setting is unique too, with a vaulted rock ceiling at the back of the restaurant, and the "Almkanal"—a subterranean aqueduct—flowing right through the room.

Legends swirl about this famous Altstadt beer cellar: locals claim that Mephistopheles met Faust here, others say Charlemagne dined here, and some believe Columbus enjoyed a glass of its famous Salzburg Stiegl beer just before he set sail for America in 1492. But there is no debating the fact that this place—first mentioned in a document dating from 803—is Austria's oldest restaurant. Choose between the stately, dark-wood-panel Prälatenzimmer (Prelates' Room) or one of several less formal banqueting rooms. Elegantly presented Austrian standards and international dishes made with top-quality ingredients fill the menu.

See and be seen among the Salzburg Festival glitteratti in Triangel's large outdoor seating area, or cozy up in the intimate dining room of this organic-farming-focused Austrian restaurant.
