Geniesserei am Markt

Awarded by Gault Millau: 2 hats (14.5 points) | Falstaff: 1 fork

The Genießerei am Markt is a place where the diversity of the Kaiser-Josef-Market is reflected in a unique way. One looks in vain for a fixed menu here, as the cooking is done exclusively with what the market has to offer fresh on that day.  This results in changing lunch dishes, small fine delicacies for in-between, and on request multi-course menus that showcase the full potential of regional ingredients.

The Genießerei gains special charm through its manageable size: Around thirty seats create a family atmosphere where market visitors, regular guests, and the curious are equally welcome. Those who stop by here are right in the midst of the market action and experience the special ambiance of the Kaiser-Josef-Platz up close.

Since 2025, the experienced Graz restaurateur Alexander Posch has been shaping the house's direction. He emphasizes regionality, culinary craftsmanship, and a touch of adventurousness. Whether for a quick lunch, an exclusively bookable dinner, or simply the baked market bread – the Genießerei am Markt demonstrates that enjoyment starts small and unfolds its greatest impact in the direct contact between producers, chefs, and guests.
