We'll be there in September and would love recommendations. We love good food, doesn't need to be fancy. And do we need to make reservations in advance? Thanks for any suggestions.

Please check out my recommendations (less than a year old) in this thread:
https://community.ricksteves.com/travel-forum/austria/my-top-ten-food-experiences-in-vienna
Reservations are free, so why not make them so that you don't have to wait for a table?
I also recommend the following:
Meissl & Schadn
Wiener Stadtbräu
Restaurant Fromme Helene
Café Anzengruber
Zur Herknerin
Amerlingbeisl

This is Vienna's most comprehensive restaurant guide. Although in German it is easily understandable. You can select features like "Empfohlen" (recommended) then you get only the better places, or "Bezirk" (city borough), or type of cuisine.

We were in Vienna the end of May 2022. Our favorite restaurant was Café Central for overall atmosphere and food. I don't think it was too expensive. We did not have reservations, but we did have to wait in line. The staff was so fun and friendly and the food was delicious! https://www.cafecentral.wien/en/
