Mural
The restaurant is right next to the Muca museum. We recommend this place for a weekend breakfast/brunch, when you can order a mean tortilla, slammin‘ pancakes or Bavarian tacos. It probably makes sense to make reservations. Or to visit the adjacent museum while you wait. Hotterstrasse 12, city center muralrestaurant.de Get Directions
Brasserie Colette
French restaurant by star cook Tim Raue (have you seen his episode of Chef’s Table?). Not the cheapest place we’ve ever been to – but offers very agreeable vibe alongside an elevated brasserie menu. Fun fact: Colette was conceived as part of the retirement home – and cooks meals for the seniors who have settled […]
Haute Cuisine
Legendary since the seventies for their superb cuisine, supreme service and high-brow architecture. Very expensive – and very good – multiple course meals known to stretch for hours. Tantris boasts 2 Michelin stars, just like the Restaurant Dallmayr in Munich’s city center.

Steak
If you’re on a budget, you may want to consider an alternative. But if you’re looking for a top notch steak and a chilled upscale atmosphere, The Grill is just the place. Zum Goldenen Kalb adjacent to Viktualienmarkt is a good alternative, if you’re looking for something closer. Lenbachplatz 8, Altstadt, the-grill-munich.de Get directions Utzschneiderstraße 1, […]
Buffet Kull
We have a very special relationship to this place, which serves upscale international cuisine along with a unique vibe. Probably because this is where our gastronomical adventures started back in the day. Many moons ago, we worked the bar at Buffet Kull – and things kind of took their course from there. Owners Rudi Kull […]
H’ugo’s
Apparently H’ugo’s Pizzeria is a must, if you want to witness what people mean, when they talk about Munich’s “Schickeria”. Frequented by many of FC Bayern’s football stars and lots of women in high-heels … Promenadeplatz 1–3, Altstadt, hugos-pizza.de Get directions
Wirtshaus Fraunhofer
Our #1 suggestion if you’re looking for “unconventional Bavarian”. Fraunhofer has been around in one form or another since 1774. Refreshingly alternative, this place is more of a quaint tavern than a posh tourist trap. It’s quite possible that the very best (caramelized) Kaiserschmarrn in town is actually available right here. Fun fact: Hit Fraunhofer […]
Bar dell‘ Osteria & Osteria
Munich is full of Italian restaurants. This one is especially good. Officially called “Bar Dell’ Osteria”, we know this spot only as “Jimmy’s”, after the place’s one-of-a-kind owner. We regularly take out-of-town DJ’s here for a late supper on weekends, before they go on to play their gigs at Bob Beaman. Make sure to get […]
