Schlosskeller Südsteiermark

Chef Markus Rath is all about Styrian specialties. At the heart of the restaurant’s cuisine are fried chicken, beef roulade, and goulash. Rath complements his no-frills classics with inventive creations, made with only the best seasonal ingredients and local farm products. At Schlosskeller Südsteiermark’s, chef Rath wonderfully demonstrates the secret family recipes he learned from his mother and grandmother. On the restaurant’s menu, you’ll find popular house specialties. Think of a Sunday roast, as well as “Schweinerei” (assorted cuts of pork, sausage, graves dumplings, and cabbage). If you’re in an adventurous mood, you can order the four-course surprise menu.

Schlosskeller Südsteiermark restaurant is wonderfully located in the countryside of Southern Styria, 35 kilometers away from Graz city. Here, there’s a lot more to explore than wineries. The area offers many opportunities for leisure activities that’ll especially make the hearts of hikers and bikers beat faster. But the region also features many historical highlights, such as ancient buildings and remarkable churches which give insights into the country’s past eras. You can visit the pilgrimage church on the Frauenberg, the town parish church, and the Capuchin monastery in Leibnitz. We also recommend exploring the Catholic church (St. Veit) which has two towers and small museums.
