The Venue and The Chef

Naschmarkt Restaurant is the newest branch of a beloved South Bay restaurant which marries European tradition with Californian sensibilities.  Come join us for an Austrian version of the annual version of an Oktoberfest.  The venue is nestled amid the bustling streets of Palo Alto, and is a culinary gem which transports diners to the vibrant streets of Vienna, Austria. Following a decade of well-earned praise at its Campbell location, the family-owned establishment now brings its recipe for success to Silicon Valley. With its authentic cuisine, charming ambiance, and commitment to a warm and welcoming dining experience, Naschmarkt Restaurant in Palo Alto has earned a well-deserved reputation as one of the best new restaurants in the region since opening last year.

Named after Vienna’s renowned open-air produce market, Naschmarkt offers an array of regional specialties and homemade dishes. Vienna is renowned for its rich culinary tradition, characterized by a delightful blend of flavors, textures, and aromas. At Naschmarkt, Owner Dino Tekdemir successfully recreates this experience by offering a menu that showcases the best of Austrian cuisine with an emphasis on being seasonally driven. “I think Austrian appeals to everyone’s tastes,” says Tekdemir. “California and Austria share an overlap in some seasonality and having unique wines, and various beers. I wanted to offer Austrian dishes, but with Californian sensibilities.”

The culinary team—led by chef de cuisine Sedat Balkan who trained and worked in Vienna—creates regional specialties, all designed to satisfy a hearty appetite. Though heavier meals may first come to mind in the context of Eastern European cooking, recipes are crafted to include even the most delicate of dishes by featuring Californian ingredients and incorporating a variety of influences from across Europe.  The restaurant sources locally whenever possible, ensuring the freshest produce and ingredients are used to create each dish. This farm-to-table sensibility unites with its authentic recipes to create a new genre: Austrian food as seen through a Californian lens. This dedication to quality shines through in every bite, making Naschmarkt a destination for food enthusiasts who appreciate authentic cuisine.
