Vienna Würstelstand
Making the most out of Vienna and life.

We’re greeted by a gorilla head amidst the bushes next to the counter. The counter is from where the next greeting comes from – a girl with a purple hair, nose-ringed, tattooed kind of look. The first impressions tell loads about Gorilla Kitchen.
Here, you eat with your hands the street food served up with sassy sarcasm and punk individuality. The girl who greeted us is Lisa, one half of the Gorilla Kitchen duo that brought burritos to Vienna in a big way a while back. This was back in their nomadic days when they’d feed revellers at festivals their beefed-up burritos from their food stand.
Since then, the Gorillas are all grown up and have found a home, but by no means does this mean this magnificent concept has been caged. The burritos bulge with flavoursome ingredients, and you wonder if the beast will explode at any moment when it proves too much for the simple piece of white tortilla bread. If it did, we’d be eating it up off the floor. Without shame. For this is the kind of place you can wipe your mouth with your sleeve, and burp a tune while knowing you’re amongst company that would appreciate your special talent (ok, perhaps refrain from the beat burping).
Having worked up a mad hunger while watching the Gorilla Kitchen staff packing ingredients snug and tight into a burrito flat bread, we make a mess of their signature classic where Mexico meets the Irish – the Guinness Rindfleisch (beef) Burrito, filled with beans, rice and corned beef in a Guinness gravy. If you like to spice things up like us, order the classic version, which comes with jalapeños and coriander. The Pulled Pork Burrito has proven a favourite amongst Gorilla goers, and we understand why. It rocks the smokey and sweet caramelised complex flavours that any pulled pork should.
