The all white, mirror filled, large space feels open and yet comfortable. It screams elegance. Coming here late at night in a Friday, the establishment was quite full. Enjoyed some spectacular German wine, pours of which get brought in a small flask, accompanied by complimentary nuts and gummy bears! Yes, gummy bears in a fancy bar, that's a new one. The wasabi crisps mixed with the nets were my favorite in the snack mix, perhaps it is something common here in Germany, but as an American, they did blow my mind. Service was very pleasant as expected in this type of an establishment. Would come back to try their cocktails as well.

Our entrees were not on the menu as they had already run out of a couple of the specials, but it was easily some of the best Italian food I've ever had - in or out of Italy. We had cheese ravioli with pistacchio cream sauce, rigatoni with meatballs and a lovely marinara, a classic bruschetta, a spin on a caprese salad that included several additional ingredients, and tiramisu for dessert. Our waiter also turned out to be a magician behind the bar, and whipped up a cocktail with Sarti liqueur, Prosecco and soda that was great! Don't let the wait for a table deter you from stopping here. Do try to get a reservation in advance, and don't miss this place. Outstanding food plus outstanding service. 6 stars!!!!!

Excellent service. I arrived a bit early and was seated (30 mins before my reservation time). Was promptly asked if they could check my coat for me. My server greeted me right away and took my drink order. I speak English and she was very friendly to me, and gave me an English menu. I had some questions about a specific cocktail, and she was patient with me, and took the time to go ask the bartender if they knew how to make it. She was able to explain very well the menu and answer any questions I had. The food was delicious. I ordered a filet mignon and a side of the seasonal vegetable (asparagus) and truffled mashed potatoes. So delicious! I ate every bit. I did not get a sauce in the steak because as per my server's recommendation, the steak itself has plenty of flavor and does not need a sauce. This is true! Tip when it comes to the al la carte sides (the steak did not come with a side). The sides are very small. Not family style. So don't expect to share them unless you aren't very hungry. You can see them on the background of my steak photo. The steak is about 8 oz. For dessert, the Juicy Piña is a must try! So delicious and so Instagram worthy. Overall, 10/10 recommend this place!!

We went to dine at Little London as it was a recommendation provided by a friend. While the food…read morewas decent, we had an unpleasant surprise by a mouse by our feet. The table next to us had spotted the mouse and then we quickly saw it running around in our section. For this nice of a restaurant, it was quite a surprise! Another couple came to join our section and the mouse ran up the guys leg! After talking to our hotel about this they said it's very unusual and dirty for a mouse to actually be inside of a restaurant. We lost our appetite and did not finish our meals. When the waitress asked if we would want another glass of wine she would pour it over our already existing glass with wine still inside filling it up to the original amount not giving us a proper pour. Our bottle of water was also charged at 18€. Overall, I do not think it was worth the price. Our bill was expensive for a mouse to be running around our feet the entire dinner!

They were booked with reservations for the evening, but fit us in since it was early. Super tiny and black painted walls, but flowers and candles on every table. Great playlist going as well. My gin and tonic was perfectly strong, and the servers were friendly and personable. They only had a German menu with 8 food options, so we used my downloaded German google translate as best we could but had no clue if it would be pasta, salads, or a plated meal. Everything turned out to be loaded salads and it was literally the best food I've had in a long time. I got the duck. Go here!

Still one of my favorite bars in Munich. I was afraid it wouldn't live up to my fond memories, but…read moreit is still as quirky and wonderful as I remembered. For some reason, I thought it was very difficult to find, but it was so easy to take the 19 tram through the heart of town to Maxmonument. Then it is just a couple blocks down Thierschstrasse and right on Mariannenstrasse. Look for the blue sign. No reservations. Cash only. Communal seating. Expect to share a table. It is a funky place primarily filled with 20 and 30-somethings crowded around the bar and small tables. Many are pushed together for larger groups, having lively conversations in the dark space lit by white candles. I think the room is painted gold, but it is hard to tell. The artwork painted on the walls throughout the space is... interesting. A severed finger writing "help" and an ear that is a mouth. It could keep you scratching your head for days. They don't have an English menu, although in another funny twist, many food and beverage items have English names and German descriptions. My remedial German was aided by the waitress, who was the best I've had in Munich this trip. My "Inferno" salad (grilled turkey, roasted potatoes, zucchini, carrots, bell peppers, peanuts and olives) was excellen,t and despite the name, only mild + on my personal spice scale. I also enjoyed a non-traditional "Old Fashioned." For visitors looking for an alternative to the hundreds of sausage and beer focused restaurants in town, this is a great place to try. For me, it is all about the salads and cocktails here. Do yourself a favor and skip the tram on your way back to town. Stroll along Maximillianstrasse (Munich's version of Rodeo Drive) and be blown away by the oppulence and extravagance of the retail elite. Even the streetlights are dripping in crystals.

It's a fairly big restaurant / bar and they have lots of outdoor seating as well as nice cosy seating inside. We had a table indoors and the ambience was great. Crisp white tablecloth and napkins and a nice Mediterranean menu. They have a nice selection of starters and middle courses and main courses. They have a small amount of pasta dishes and one risotto on the menu. Choices for vegetarians are also reasonable. I had the salmon ceviche which came with a fennel salad and I quite liked it. Not common fish found in ceviche but it was quite flavorful and simply put together. My main was a pasta Vongole and it was slightly disappointing. I was expecting the explosion of flavour from the garlic and clams but it lacked something, perhaps a bit more seasoning and spicing. The creme brûlée I had was also nice. Service here is really good and the staff are quite attentive. It did get a bit slow towards the end of the evening which I did not mind. They have a small but nice wine list and we enjoyed a nice French Sauvignon Blanc. It's not a cheap place but the quality is good and the service is also very good. I would happily come here again. A nice restaurant / bar in Schwabing.

The place was packed after 10pm, a vibe somewhere between a club and a restaurant, music blasting a a solid crowd. One of the waters picked us out of the crowd, found us a cozy spot in the corner, lit up a candle, gave a food menu and brought a giant bottle of Vueve Cliquot. Prices for Cliquot by glass are only 11.5 euros, which is pretty darn good. The guacamole was very solid. Housemade chips and dip were quite good as well. The service was the best we've had during the entire venture through Germany, the waiter was a really chill guy and seemed like everyone knew everyone here, an odd thing to see in a big city. So, if looking for late night set of snacks, a drink and a fun vibe, look no further, this is the spot.

Don't hesitate to walk in the restaurant on the first floor and walk up the spiral staircase to get there. It's a cool dim vibe. There's a grand piano in there that I believe anyone can play.

He scoffed at my request for a White Russian saying it was so easy. It ended up being one of the best I've ever had!

Loved this place so much that I came twice during my trip! It's located on the first floor (which…read moreis actually the 2nd floor if you're North American) of the 25 Hours Hotel. Going in, you're lined with type writers on the left and a drawing station on the right complete with stamps, pencil crayons, and what I assume is charcoal. Paper as well as envelopes are provided as well. Too bad I couldn't figure out how to work the typewriters. So cute! I think I liked this bar so much because of the decor. There are super comfortable and plush, royal chairs or you can choose to take a seat by the window area, complete with cozy cushions. Tons of coffee table books on the shelves. Vinyl collection on another wall. A small piano in the middle. A random swan chair and a gigannnntic book at the front. You can seat yourself and the waiter will bring the menu to you. No ordering directly from the bar. There are lots of drinks to choose from. We tried about twelve drinks and they were all delicious, though some were made a little strong. They are reasonably priced, with most of the drinks being about €7. I would 100% recommend checking it out if you're in Munich.

The vibe is AMAZING, the service is ON POINT, and the quality of drinks is second to NONE!!! If this establishment was located in Hollywood it would be one of the most popular in all of LA, the difference being that LA people wouldn't properly appreciate it, and instead would just try to take a million selfies to make their online avatar look cool. This place is in a much better position, and it is stacked with super friendly Europeans. I made eye contact with one woman, and within 5 minutes was making out with her, talk about top notch social opportunity!!! Not only did my brother and I come here for drinks nearly every night of our trip, we even brought another one of our friends with us and told him this was a MUST VISIT BAR. He also fell in love with it, and a year after my visit, I felt that I must write a review that gives Weiberwirtschaft it's due and PROPER!!! Go here, drink it in, literally, and talk with the owners, they have great personalities. I love you Weiberwirtshaft, and thank you for loving me. Thank you for existing. If there is a heaven, Weiberwirtschaft is in it.

This bar (whose name I still cannot pronounce--it means "henhouse" in English) was perfect. Inside, two TV screens played old school music videos (the sound system wasn't in sync), and the center bar was flanked by small high tables. The lighting was pink, which was shocking when viewed from the outside, but actually quite pleasant once we settled in. The owner, who opened the bar with her best friend, was lovely and had a smile all the way to her ears. She was eager to create cocktails to our liking. When we told her what we were looking for (something spicy, not too fruity), she nodded knowingly, picked bottles from her large selection of gin, and added fresh herbs. When the others left the bar and it was time to close, the owner happily gave us recommendations for other bars and activities in the area. Had we been able to stay, we would have wanted to hang out with her all night!
