Award-winning restaurants and Michelin-starred restaurants in Tyrol

Gault Millau-awarded restaurants in Central Tyrol

Fine dining in Innsbruck and the surrounding area – this has recently become possible at Michelin-starred establishments too.

Michelin stars in Tyrol are as rare as edelweiss on the mountains. This makes it all the more delightful that, in the Hall-Wattens region, one of these gems has set up shop right in the heart of Hall’s old town.

Anyone living in Innsbruck who fancies Michelin-starred cuisine can soon reach the charming old town of Hall in Tyrol, where the award-winning chef Johannes Nuding also has his restaurants. His fine-dining restaurant “Schwarzer Adler” on Eugenstraße near the Oberer Stadtplatz, where he serves French cuisine with an Asian twist.

At the bistro "Secco", the cosily furnished restaurant right next door, serves delicious dishes recommended by Gault Millau for their excellent value for money. It’s the perfect place to get a taste of haute cuisine.

Johannes Nuding has now also been awarded a Michelin star

Since January 2025, the top chef from Hall has not only been awarded three toques by Gault Millau, but also two Michelin stars. The reviewers praised the harmonious “combination of ingredients, spices, textures and flavours, the fantastic quality and the warm service.”

A few kilometres further on, too, there’s something delicious waiting for you on your plate: At award-winning chef Thomas Grander’s restaurant "Grander", he serves international cuisine – long recognised with one toque, and now even three. His restaurant has many regulars, so a booking is always recommended. The menus change with the seasons.

Restaurant recommendations in Hall and the surrounding area

But even without stars or toques, there are plenty of places in the Hall-Wattens region where you can enjoy an excellent meal.
For example, at the “Bretze” in Hall.

The Bretze has been completely renovated and modernised in recent years. The interplay of old and new runs through the entire establishment. In the kitchen, traditional pub fare is given a playful, personal touch. The bar is the place to go for an after-work beer, a relaxed evening or to kick off the night. Accommodation is provided by three charming holiday studios with a garden, right in Hall’s old town. The gallery offers the ideal setting for exhibitions, readings, theatre and much more.
