I want to get the polygon of a given street using OverPass API. When I use, for instance,

(
  way
    ["name"="Hörnesgasse"];
  >;
);node(w);
out body;

Here is a Overpass Turbo link: Overpass Turbo

I get the nodes for a polygon, but they are not in the right order. So I can't save them as a line. Is there any possibility to this better? Another issue I'm having is that I want to restrict the search for a given city, example "addr:city"="Vienna". Since the nodes don't have a city attribute directly, how could I write a query to get this information?

You will need the way in order to retrieve the order of nodes. This can't work otherwise, imagine a way including one or more nodes twice.

Remove the node(w); part from your query and take a look at the <way> elements. If there are multiple <way> elements then you will have to determine the correct order of them, too. Consecutive ways will share the same node ID at the start or the end.
