    Sam S.

    I had to think carefully before rating this place and, I considered it for a while and decided that, giving it two stars is generous. This is one of the 15 odd Michelin starred restaurants in the Munich area and we have been to quite a few of those. It would have to be the worst Michelin starred restaurant we have been to in the world, for a variety of reasons. Despite having informed the restaurant about food restrictions for one of the people they were totally unprepared for it. I even double checked my confirmation to be sure that I had informed them, as they claimed there was no notes, which was a lie. It took over 3 hours to serve a 5 course meal which was small and I walked out hungry. It took four requests to get olive oil for the bread. At least three to four times the waitress tried to pour water out of empty bottles. At this level of restaurant I do not accept such sloppy service and such a slow kitchen. The first course did not come out for at least an hour or more. We ordered the spring menu which was five courses. Each course was so small that I left the place hungry, despite eating lots of bread. The tuna tartare was nice but the overall dish did not pack a punch for me at all. The pasta course of parmesan crusted ravioli was very nice and tasty, the fish soup too sweet and fennely, the fish cooked beautifully but the portion was too small, and the dessert, was the smallest portion I have ever seen in a restaurant of this level. It was barely two spoons :-( We had one small amouse bouche to start and that was it. One of the stingiest kitchens I have ever experienced anywhere. The bread basket was lovely with a variety of small round bread rolls. Wine list here is small but has a nice selection of Italian wines. I wish there was a bit more to choose from in the mid price ranges. Overall here is my view: Food - 3 stars Wine list - 3 stars Service - 1 star Value for money - 0 star Ambience - 3 star Portion sizes - 1 star I would never come here again. I don't mind paying for good food but, this is just overpriced average Italian food that lacks the creativity I would expect, in a Michelin starred restaurant. Two of the tables next to us were looking equally disappointed with their steaks and in fact, one of them sent their steak back for cooking. Maybe this place was really special in the past but given the choice today, they have much work to do. Three out of three of us agreed it was average at best.

    If you like cocktails, they have a vaste list of choices…read moreGood selection of Italian wines Excellent food and very well presented plates with attention to details Warmly greeted, received a five star service Bistro like restaurant with twist of Italian "chic", with cosy lighting and soft jazz in background, which gives a modern and warm ambiance. I personally liked the attention to details with service, wine and food which is so rare today in the US... Came here for dinner and, after experiencing so many complex flavors, didn't want to leave

    Excellent, authentic, wonderful! I sat at the bar at Negroni…read moreBar, and my only regret is that I didn't have more people with me to try everything they ordered, in addition to what I ordered. The food was excellent. I had the Bruchetta, which tasted fresh and the Luinguini Al Tartufo, which was slightly creamy, not overly heavy, and a perfect balance with fresh shaved black truffle. I squeezed in room for the Gateau au Chocolat, and I'm really glad I did. If you like a cocktail that's not too sweet, and also tropical, the Caribbean Milk (I'm 90% sure that's what it's called) is reaallly good. The bartender was very helpful with suggestions, and once the bar started to get busier, the owner came and made drinks from the well and served half the bar through the busy, dinner rush. Great food and friendly service will bring me back there next time I'm in Munich for sure.
