After eating Bavarian food for almost three weeks, I yearned for some pasta. I could eat Spaghetti…read morecon Vongole almost every day, when it's served right, and this here was just perfect. Al dente pasta and juicy little clams served with quality olive oil and fresh little tomatoes...perfetto! Cute place in a darling location set next to a beautiful canal, a stone's throw from Maximilianstr. If had not been chilly it would have been even more perfect to dine al fresco. Decor inside is chic and modern, but with the charm of exposed brick walls and a wooden floor.

One of the best tapas place in Munich. Unfortunately, when a place is good, especially when it's…read morelocated in the Glockenbachviertel, everyone and their mothers know about this place. This means, hard to get a table, slow service, and long waits. And to top it off, the prices are quite high, and if you want to reserve, you need to be at least a party of 10, and each must pay 25€ of drinks and food. Outrage! Ok, after all the dislikes about this place, I still give Itxaso 4-stars must mean there are good things. Basically, it's the food and the ambience. While crowded, the place is lively and fun to hang out. According to my Spanish sources and my experiences in Spain, the food is quite authentic. With a Estrella Damm in hand and some tapas to go with them (my recs: the classics patata bravas and tortilla de patatas, chorizos a la sidra, and pulpo a la gallega), one can complain less or about nothing at all. So to sum up, to go there without getting upset over long waits/bad service, go there earlier on a weeknight. I read they have a tapas special on Monday night, so that might be just my cue to go back there again.

We went here for dinner tonight with a couple of friends and enjoyed the evening. I reserved online…read moreand they were quick to respond and we had a reservation straight away. The place itself is pretty small and compact like many of the tapas bars in Spain. The menu is also small and quite reasonable. We ordered quite a few dishes (best way to eat Tapas is to go in a group or 4 or 6) and most of it tasted ok. The patatas bravas was a total disappointment as it was a ketchup sauce with a bit of paprika which is, simply not what this dish is served like. The Spanish omelette was good, the Jamon was ok but sliced a bit too thick. The pimientos were ok as was the mushroom. The best dish of the night was the Palpo a la Gallega which was tender and delicious. The wine menu here is nice and small, with well priced wines and, they have a good list of other drinks as well. We tried the churros for dessert and the churros were quite oily and the chocolate sauce lacked chocolate, if you know what I mean. All in all an ok experience and I would probably come back here but, won't be in a hurry to do so. Ambience is great, service is ok and value for money is very good.

In one word, this place is an EXPERIENCE! We were staying two nights in Freising before traveling…read moreback to the US, and this was such a refreshing restaurant after having German fare for most of the week. From the moment you sit down, you are immediately greeted with a complementary shot of Ouzo. The menu is rather large and they do have an English option. We started with the dolmades that were served warm with a scrumptious lemon dill cream sauce. I ordered the baked chicken platter which had a mushroom cream sauce, side salad, and I opted for the rice instead of the fries. Very glad I got the rice because it was full of tomato flavor and spices. My husband ordered the lamb shank with eggplant. The eggplant was cooked a little too much, but the flavor made up for it. The lamb was juicy and tender. Once we finished and asked for our bill, we were brought the bill with complementary individual vanilla custards with strawberry sauce AND MORE OUZO! I was pregnant during our trip so I passed on the Ouzo both times, and I told our waiter it was because I was expecting a baby. He immediately brought us a fancy juice cocktail that was absolutely delicious! Amazing service and food from start to finish. A must try if you are in Freising.

We have been to Conviva every time we have visited Munich. It has never failed us…read more The food on this trip was wonderful and provided us with simply mouthgasm moments. The avocado mousse was delightfully creamy, hints of lemon and the smoothness of avocado. This came with a rocket salad and a light Waldorf like salad. The duck liver pâté was textural (not grainy), with a beautiful blackcurrant jelly wrapping it. The watercress salad was peppery and gave the little bite to tingle the tastebuds. The pumpkin, ginger and coconut soup with a pumpkin seed oil was delightful. The oil raising the flavour profile beautifully. Whilst the Charolais was not available, the replacement veal steak was juicy, a light blush of pink when cut, and so soft and tender with a caramelised crust to just give that extra texture. The savoury donuts and the vegetables with a jus to wrap it into a delight of a mouthful. The braised veal with vegetables cooked in stock with a horseradish sauce, provided a slight switch in that whilst the veal was flavoursome it was the vegetables that took the plate to the next level by providing the palate with excitement and joy. The dessert was a gingerbread panna cotta with white wine braised pear and redcurrants. Oh my gawd! This, for me, was a mouthgasm. The gingerbread flavour was a hit on the tongue, the texture, whilst not smooth and creamy as per a traditional panna cotta, was both creamy and textural at the same time. The red currants and the pears gave that texture offset and sharpness that brought out the flavour even more. Such a wonderful night, with wait staff who were attentive and relaxed. The atmosphere at Conviva is always relaxed and, whilst sometimes a little noisy, you never feel that you are fighting the other dinner guests to be heard. Overall, it had to be 5/5.

Not sure if this place deserves 3 or 4 stars. In doubt I will give it 3 until I try it again…read more I liked the minimalistic décor and the nice and friendly waiting staff. I love their employing policies (people with handicap or other problems are given priority to re-integrate in society) and the canteen atmosphere. For all of this 5 stars. I just wasn't impressed by the food. By reading the menu you'd expect something special, in that the description of the dishes is interesting and sophisticated. The problem is that what they call "mountain lentils" are then plain boiled lentils on the side, or what the call "salad bouquet from the market" is a standard bagged salad mix from the super-market. My pumpkin soup was absolutely tasteless (although my friend's porcini-potato soup was very yummy). The fish terrine was good but I was a bit bothered by the accompanying "salad bouquet" (as mentioned above). I think a bit less pretence (for what concerns the menu) would do this place good. Also, it would be great to find more vegetarian options on the menu. I will nonetheless definitely come back.
