Since this was my Spanish fiancé's first visit to Munich and he is not exactly use to the cold…read morewinter, after touring around in -1 degree weather all afternoon, rather than shocking his system further with German cuisine, we opted for Spanish Tapas. I had been recently informed of VolkArt's existence, and since I am in love with Tapas, I had been dying to try this place out. Knowing that the possibility of finding a restaurant that would satisfy my cravings for the Spanish delicacies I have come to love and long for during my long stints away from that precious land, I was really hoping VolkArt would meet my high expectations (not fair to them, I know, but they were there nonetheless). As my fiancé will eat anything, my flatmate (who was also with us) has never had tapas or anything really Spanish before, it was left to me to order. I chose a selection for us all to share and try, as that is always the most fun. We started with the Flautas, Tortilla Espanola, Albondigas, and Patatas Bravas. The Flautas and the Patatas Bravas were amazing. I could have eaten a vat of the tomato salsa that came with the Flautas all on its own. The Flautas had perfectly flavoured chicken filling, crispy fried Mexican tortilla wrap and some greens on top. Combined with the tomato salsa (I am not a fan of guacamole or sour cream), these have to be the best thing on the menu. We ended up ordering a second round. Along with a Quesadilla, which was also extremely good. The Patatas Bravas were also really good. They were cooked/fried perfectly... crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Not far behind was the Tortilla Espanol. I am rather bias as my fiancé makes an incredible tortilla. But, VolkArt does a very good job and I would recommend this highly. My only disappointment in the evening was the Albondigas. This is one of my favourite things to get in Spain and I was a little let down. There seem to be a lack of flavour and/or seasoning in our batch. They were ok... just not up to the level of the other things we had ordered. I was pleased that they served Tegernsee Helles... one of my favourite Munich area beers, second only to Augustiner and on the same level as Paulaner (in my opinion). VolkArt offers a 250ml or a 500ml glass. My fiancé's instinct was to get the smaller one, finding the idea of half a litre in one sitting daunting. But, even though we were in a Spanish restaurant, this is still Munich after all. Smaller than half a litre just doesn't fly. I also had a Helles and my flatmate ordered a Rose, which she really enjoyed. This was a Friday night around 6:30. When we walked in the place was empty except for one couple with a baby. We were a little worried at first, even considering the early hour. As we looked around, we noticed that all the tables had a "Reserved" sign on them. Including the bar. We spoke to the extremely friendly staff, who, after making us promise we would be out by 8:30, found us a spot. I would highly recommend reserving a place, even for 2 people. By 7:00 it was filling up and by the time we left it was full. VolkArt exceeded my expectations and I will definitely be back!

Good prices, too we ate mexican a few evenings later and came out with a higher bill! Only thumbs up here!

To note up front: this isn't traditional Mexican like you make expect. Everything is fork and knife, so not the kind of burrito you'll be able to pick up. Also up front, the chicken is great! Definitely load up on the chicken entrees! I wanted to try a variety, so I went with the Plato Texano. I was a bit confused at first by what was on the plate, but I figured it out. The quesadilla consisted of fresh cheese melted all over perfectly seasoned chicken, but heft and consistency-wise, felt more like a taco. I wasn't as impressed by the con carne. It was tender because it came in beef gravy type sauce, but still tasted quite bland. I'm not big on veggie burritos, so this wasn't ever going to be my thing. Imagine like an open faced veggie fajita. If you like that, you may like this. The salad was interesting. There was a honey mustard dressing that didn't really fit the flavor profile that I'd want to pair with Mexican food. Although, I don't think I've ordered a salad with Mexican before so I can't think of a type of dressing I would want to pair it with. Finally, the chicken chimichanga! So good! I wish I just ordered 3 or 4 of these.

This has been my favorite by far so far. My date and I stopped in on a Thursday night and it was slammed. There were only two spots left at the bar and that was it. We quickly snagged them and were greeted promptly. Despite there only being two servers/bartenders, they managed extremely prompt service and maintained a very friendly demeanor. The female bartender was extremely knowledgable about the wines and let us try several before we chose. We ended up choosing her recommendation every time - they were all home runs. Also had the rabbit pate for dinner; an excellent dish and a very good size portion. I will most definitely be returning and might even be a regular.

One thing to note -- if you & your group order 15 tapas, they will ALL come out at once. If you want to have a more Spain-like experience, you should try ordering a few, grazing on those, ordering a few more -- in other words if you want pacing, you need to manage that yourself. and sometimes the server is tough to find, so if you go that route, you'll probably want to plan on hanging out for the duration.
