First time in Munich and stumbled upon Eataly on our way back to our hotel. Very nice service and friendly staff. We were seated very shortly after arriving but our table was very crowded between a bunch of other tables. The food was excellent and drinks as well. This made up for the crowdedness. We split a meat board and margarita pizza for meal. The prosciutto on the board was the best I have ever had. We got tiramisu and cappuccinos as a dessert which was just as good as the meal. Overall a very nice experience and would recommend. read more

Eataly - Italian Near Me - Munich, BY

See all

Food was OK. Staff a bit rude. Wait was too long, even considering we had 7 people (we even offered to split). Servings a bit small.

Cool little market place to walk around in and get out of the snow. They are multiple places to get food and snacks as well as dessert in the back. Be sure to check out the wine downstairs (also where you will find restrooms off needed). Have coins for the restrooms. read more

Full disclosure: This review is ONLY for the sit-down restaurant with the checkerboard plastic table cloths and uncomfortable lucite chairs. Not for the marketplace. We are a family of five. Three adults (one young adult) and two kids. If you have children that are even slightly picky...don't go here. The menu is tiny. About 7 appetizers, five pastas and five overpriced entrees. When my 10-year-old brother saw the small selection, we thought "maybe they could just put some red sauce on spaghetti?" The waiter said not an option. Come on! He ended going with butter and Parmesan on noodles. My mother and I ordered the spaghetti plate that was served with a thin cream sauce. Maybe it's because we're American, but the pasta al dente (slightly undercooked and chewy/stiff) was not enjoyable. And it was not listed as served al dente on the menu. We couldn't ever find our waiter. Yes, in Europe they don't hover and pester like they do in America...but this guy was pretty much MIA. Another waiter took over during our meal and he snuck in a fifth 5,50 € bottle of water without asking. Not cheap! My other brother and dad both had lasagne, which they characterized as mediocre at best. The bill for our family came to 107 € -- which was way too much for the experience we had. My mother was excited to try Eately having heard about it. And sadly, we gave up our reservation at a local Munich restaurant for this. What a disappointment. Our meal earlier that day for lunch was half the price, double the food and quadruple the flavor. Again, I can't vouch for the marketplace. But as for the restaurant. You'd be wise to steer clear or keep expectations low. read more

If you want to buy cheap italian wine, this is the place to go! We stalked up for killer savings compared to what we get in the US. My boyfriend and I did eat at one of the restaurants and thought the food was authentic but mediocre in taste. However we are probably a bit jaded after our trip to Rome six months earlier. That is the only reason it does not get 5 stars. If you have a craving for something non-german but don't want to spend a ton of money to go to a fancy italian restaurant, then check this place out! read more

Excellent food. Weird staff. We asked if we could sit anywhere. One waiter said yes. When we tried to sit at a table for 4 (there were 2 of us), another waiter led us to a different table. However, I saw 3 people at a table for 6. When a woman sat down at the counter by herself (party of 1), a waiter moved her to the end of the table for 6 that only had 3 people seated there. I thought that was weird and rude. Nobody was seated at the counter and there were at least 10 seats from what I could see. However, if you're looking for real Italian pizza (I've been to Rome, so I know the real deal), this is a great place. The Italian food market is awesome. If I had room in my suitcase I'd have bought more to bring home with me. read more

Eataly - 5 cheese pizza. Very good unless you're lactose intolerant. - Italian Near Me - Munich, BY

If I could give this place negative reviews I would. I know it's Germany and all, but no one would greet us or help us. Wanted to eat and shop, ended up putting everything down and leaving. Been to several eataly's.. flat out this one sucks. read more

Very shitty place. No service available at all. Was trying to get in touch with the waiter in La Cucina Della Nona 5 times. Burger was very bad and two pizzas was unbaked. Even tough we told that to the waiter his answer was the pizza have always been like this. That's simply not true since it was crispy last time... read more

Probably the best pizza I've had in all my life. The quality and original Neapolitan recipe they have here is unparalleled, and they give a lot of attention to important detail. There is a counter that shows how long the dough has been fermenting - in my case about 35 hours before they startet cooking it in their custom wood-fired oven. Good and real ingredients plus the passion of their all-Italian staff makes this a must-go in Munich. Also good for pasta, meats as well as for food shopping. read more

Great fresh food and drinks. The supermarket is the real deal for Italian food. There is always a crowd but there is no possibility to make reservations. Nice any time of the year. read more

My lord, the wait is longer than the age of the universe. I found myself looking for the waiting staff more often than actually enjoying my meal. The appetizers came before the wine (!) and the main course was a lost hope. When the pasta finally came I was bored out of my mind of the actual food and wanted to just go home. Did I run into a tourist trap? Hmm... Maybe try the pizza? read more

I would not recommend you bother spending your money in the pizza & pasta restaurant due to the rude staff. Even though the spaghetti, rigatoni and pizza we ordered did taste good but honestly the staff's attitude and behavior made us feel unwelcome and took way any joy of dining at Eataly. I'm sure there are family owned authentic Italian restaurants in Munich that you can enjoy. Nobody who loves to eat should put up with this place. read more

Terrible organization and service, and food is subpar. They forgot our antipasti platter and we waited an hour for a pizza and two pasta dishes. Parmesan cheese is not even freshly grated. A wasted meal out. Check out Eataly in NY, much better. read more

Don't eat at the focaccia counter if you want to be treated like a human being. I strolled in on a Tuesday evening around 630pm, looking for a bite to eat, the blonde woman who spoke fluent Italian was incredibly rude to me, she was condescending and not flexible on the size of focaccia bread she was cutting, she was a flat out jerk to me for no reason at all. The guy before me had ended up not getting a piece after she had cut it and she was clearly pissed about it but I don't see why she needed to be a complete asshole to me after. Then she was nice and smiled at the next woman, who coincidentally spoke Italian too. Racist much? The bread was decent but not really post worthy but her service sure was! read more

Food was decent but my wife's steak was forgotten about; waiter never checked back with us so it was literally 15 minutes after everyone else was served before he noticed, and 15 min after that before she received her food. So me and my son (waiting patiently so my wife wouldn't have to eat by herself) ate cold pasta. And I would have thought that they would have at least comped a glass of wine or a dessert after this error. But no. So simply put, food was very good but service was atrocious. read more

A good place for Italy for beginners. Pizza and location are the main reasons for me to go there

Stopped by here while in Munich a few month ago and really loved it. It's a big, open space with lots of windows that look right out on to the street and are great for people watching. I liked the interior design, although it did feel a little too crowded at times and it was hard to maneuver between tables when trying to walk across the dining area. Still, very atmospherically lively and enjoyable. The food is definitely Italian American, but that was pretty alright with me. There was a good verity of pastas and I enjoyed what I ordered. The pasta wasn't greasy, which I find is a problem with many restaurant made pastas. it was very clearly high quality. After we finished our meal, a friend and I had a good time just walking around, looking at all the different foods for sale and grabbing some coffee at the counter. It's a little tourist-y, but overall a nice place to stop by if you're nearby and hungry! read more

Cool, I've never eaten at one of these before - it's "Americanized" but tasty pasta, good ambiance, great selection all under one roof.

Sat outside with a friend. Restaurant wasn't opened yet so they told me (I should say, snapped at me) to sit down and wait. That they will open in 15 min. I should have just left then and there but I figured that maybe I just lost something in translation. Anyway, we order a coupe of drinks from the bar and sat outside waiting for them to open and take our order. They IGNORED us for over an hour! At one point people sat next to us and the waiter took one of our menus and handed it to the new people. We couldn't believe it. German couple behind us had it happen to them too. We all stood up and left. AWFUL service and ridiculous prices. So glad we left! We crossed the street and ate at a wonderful pizzeria where we were served immediately (with a smile) and ate for less than 20E. read more

Well, after the reviews of rude servers I decided to give it a chance anyway. I've been to Eataly a few times in NY and was craving some Italian food. Unfortunately I was treated like a piece of dirt when I asked the bartender a simple question. He looked at me like I was an idiot and answered without a smile. Honestly, there's no need to treat customers so unkindly. Yes, we are tourists but happy to spend our money for good service. Don't bother with this place. There are much better and more authentic restaurants, both Italian and otherwise, just steps away. read more

I'd give them a negative 5 star if I could. Went for date night with my husband and we waited over an hour for a small portion of under cooked pasta. The restaurant was not busy as it was a Monday evening and several open tables around us. We noticed people who came in after us got their food before we did. After multiple interactions with the waiter and told "5 more minutes" every time, the food still came out not the way we ordered it. When we complained about the service, in broken English, the waiter got frustrated and disrespectful and called me an animal in Italian. Multiple staff members gathered to try to deescalate the situation and apologize for his "normal" behavior. However, we still had to pay for our food at full price. We will be writing up a formal complaint about this establishment as I do not think we deserved to be charged 35 Euro for this experience. I am not Italian and I am not German. I am from New Zealand and we do not behave like this down under. read more

The food isn't amazing but there is something for everyone. The space is very cool for lunch or to buy some Italian products!

Food is very close to what you would expect if you're in Italy. Hand made pasta and pizza. Most of the staffs speak English and German, or English and German and Italian, or German and Italian. Has a market, wine and chocolate shop downstair. Has a cafe, bakery, and gelato section. Restrooms are down stair, past the meat counter, and cafe, if you're looking. read more

This was the worst restaurant we have been to in years. The service was absolutely terrible. The pasta meals arrived 20 minutes before the pizza's. Our waitress did not care! We asked her for some ice for our drinks which were warm. She told us "no- I am too busy with other tables". I recommend you go somewhere else. The food and service is terrible. Don't waste your time or money on this restaurant. read more
