Zagat Guides recognized the young chef’s talents naming him to their 30Under30 list honoring the rising stars of the Los Angeles culinary scene.
Rave reviews soon followed in the Los Angeles Times, LA Weekly and other publications. BierBeisl was named one of the hottest new restaurants by Gayot, Zagat, Esquire, Los Angeles magazine and Angeleno Magazine.
The LA Times included BierBeisl on their 101 Best Restaurants list and LA Weekly selected BierBeisl for its 99 Essential Restaurant list. The Hollywood Reporter declared Chef Mairinger to be one of the Most Influential Chefs in Hollywood with an A-list clientele.
National recognition arrived when Esquire Magazine named BierBeisl one of the Hottest New Restaurants in the U.S. and Chef Mairinger was included on the James Beard Award shortlist. Chef Mairinger made his national television debut on The Food Network’s Iron Chef America’s Battle Oktoberfest battling two Iron Chefs, Michael Symon and Jeffrey Zakarian. Chef Mairinger’s BierBeisl was also selected as a feature in the Beverly Hills Centennial cookbook. The Beverly Hills restaurant closed and a search for a new location was initiated.
Chef Mairinger continues to grow the significance of ‘modern’ Austrian cuisine within Southern California, through pop up dinners and major culinary events such as the LA Food & Wine Festival, Breeders Cup and LA Times the Taste at Paramount Studios. Furthermore, the continuing requests for TV appearances on networks like Discovery+, Hallmark Channel and many others, have established Chef Mairinger as one of the leading culinary talents within the city of Los Angeles.
More exciting news coming soon, including updates to his next brick & mortar restaurant, pop ups and cooking classes.
