To this day, Fabios has retained and further refined its timeless architectural concept. With the refurbishment of Fabios Bar by architect Alberto von Bach, ALBERTONI Architektur° Design, Fabio Giacobello has now brought Milan to Vienna. Twelve-Meters of silk wallpaper, hand-painted by the Milanese artist duo MISHA, vividly express a unique Italian esprit. With this refurbishment, Fabio Giacobello remains true to his vision: a taste of Italy with international standards.

“Fabios Giardino” in the middle of downtown Vienna.
During the summer months, the terrace transforms into a Milanese green oasis. The unique combination of modern terrace architecture, Mediterranean cuisine, dense greenery and the scent of fresh herbs expresses a true Italian attitude to life. With a view of the most exclusive stores in Vienna, guests can enjoy the feeling of peace and privacy. Whether it’s time for coffee, aperitivo, lunch, dinner or cocktails – Vienna’s most beautiful terrace invites you to linger at any time of day.
