Why go
Cooking Ninja is worth considering for an easy weekday lunch in Bezau, especially when convenience matters more than a formal occasion format. For a more defined regional or Austrian meal, cross-shop Schwanen or Gasthof Adler; for a Bezau-only plan, this is the lower-friction choice.
About Cooking Ninja
On a return trip to Bezau, the smart question is whether Cooking Ninja's limited opening window fits the plan. Cooking Ninja is a casual venue open from Monday to Thursday, 11:30 AM to 2 PM, so it is best considered when timing and simplicity matter more than an evening meal.
A relaxed Bezau choice for midday plans
The appeal here is direct planning. Cooking Ninja is in Bezau and has a casual dress code. It is open from 11:30 AM to 2 PM Monday through Thursday, serving as a simple midday option rather than a fully defined destination-dining choice. For other dining ideas, compare it with GAMS 1648 or the broader options in our full Bezau restaurants guide.
For special occasions, keep expectations realistic. Cooking Ninja may suit a casual daytime plan in Bezau, but it does not support dinner planning: it is open Monday through Thursday from 11:30 AM to 2 PM and closed Friday through Sunday.
Who should choose it, and who should cross-shop
Choose Cooking Ninja if the priority is a casual weekday meal in Bezau and the schedule works with the narrow opening window. Cross-shop Cooking Ninja with GAMS 1648, Gasthof Adler, Schwanen, Sonne Mellau, or Hotel Gasthof Hirschen Schwarzenberg when you want to compare other nearby or regional dining options before committing.
For broader planning, remember Cooking Ninja is a casual Bezau venue with Monday-to-Thursday midday hours. If the day needs something beyond that window, look at other dining in Bezau or nearby options before finalizing the itinerary.
Quick reference: choose Cooking Ninja for a casual Bezau meal from Monday to Thursday, 11:30 AM to 2 PM; compare other nearby options if you need a different schedule or a more clearly defined occasion meal.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Cooking Ninja sits squarely in an alpine, ingredient-first tradition. The restaurant reads like an extension of the Bregenzerwald larder: spruce forest, high meadows and dairy farms are not just scenery but daily sources. That close relationship with mountain pastures and local cheese producers gives the dining room a quietly rustic, scenic character — thoughtful rather than flashy, rooted in provenance. The tone is regional and sincere; dishes feel like translations of terroir rather than metropolitan experimentation, making the place feel connected to valley life and the rhythms of seasonal alpine production.
Best For
This is a destination for diners who prize provenance and terroir. Guests who travel to the Bregenzerwald to taste what summer‑grazed milk and local producers yield will get the clearest picture here. Rather than the capital’s creative fine‑dining hubbub, Cooking Ninja belongs to a regional‑roots stream of Austrian cuisine, so it suits food‑minded visitors, small groups interested in local producers, and anyone curious about alpine dairy traditions. It’s especially rewarding for those who see dining as a way to connect with landscape and supply chains.
Ordering Tips
Order the signature selfgemachte Nudeln first — homemade pasta is explicitly listed as a specialty and speaks to the kitchen’s focus on local ingredients. Look for dishes that showcase Bregenzerwald cheese or alpine dairy: the description emphasizes the valley’s cheese route and summer‑grazed milk, so cheese‑forward plates are likely highlights. Ask servers about the specific producers on the menu and which items change with pasture seasonality; that will point you to the most distinctive, terroir‑driven options.

Restaurant context
How Cooking Ninja compares in Bezau
Cooking Ninja is the easy-booking, lunch-led option in this set. That makes it useful for visitors who need a simple Bezau meal without building the day around the restaurant. GAMS 1648 is the more obvious cross-shop if the group wants a fuller restaurant occasion in Bezau, while Cooking Ninja is the lower-commitment pick.
For clearer cuisine signals, Schwanen and Gasthof Adler are easier to choose on paper: Schwanen is listed for regional cuisine at €€, and Gasthof Adler for Austrian cooking at €€. Pick either when the meal needs a more traditional Bregenzerwald feel; pick Cooking Ninja when schedule and ease matter more than a defined regional brief.
Sonne Mellau and Hotel Gasthof Hirschen Schwarzenberg make more sense when the meal is tied to a wider village or hotel itinerary outside Bezau. Cooking Ninja is the practical Bezau choice, not the splurge signal. For value-minded diners, the decision comes down to whether a convenient lunch beats a more classic regional meal nearby.
