Il Borgo — Restaurant in Munich

this place is very quiet, the tables are unusually large and spaced out for Munich. There are few tables. It is clearly a classy place.

The menu is very short, which I personally tend to like. They have starters, pasta (fancy things like pasta with truffle, or prawns and so on, not the classical ones), fish and meat. They don't offer pizza here.

We had a veal tartar for starter, which was excellent. The pasta looked amazing, I wish I had ordered some as well. For our main we had the sole with giant prawns. The quality of the fish is outstanding, one of the best I've tried in Munich.

At last we had a chocolate coulant with ice, which was also really good.

All in all, the experience was great. The staff is friendly and attentive. It is a bit on the pricey side, but I think it is pretty fair, considering the quality. Will...

Location: there is a bus station at front of the restaurant but a bit far from U-Bahn, you could find park along the street but not easy. (4.5)

Environment: I love this place it’s not only because it is tidy and clean, it gives you a good feeling especially for a date. (5)

Food: oh my god! I must say I have never been disappointed. It was always yummy no matter what I order. And they always change menus, fish. Chicken, meat, they cook all kind of stuffs and all good. (5)

Service: I think this is only restaurant I saw the stuffs are drinking wine during work. They talk. They drink and they are happy people. Very happy environment. (5)

Price: well. It is not cheap, but definitely worth the value.(5)

Overall: 5+ I go there on...

Dined here twice and unfortunately had two very contrasting experiences when it comes to the quality of the food. The first time I was here, the grilled octopus was succulent, tender and with a nice hint of a char. The tuna tartare was fresh and so were the scallops. Unfortunately the seafood was very disappointing (i.e. not fresh and cooked well) the second time I visited. For an average Italian restaurant, you could forgive, but this place is definitely on the higher end of the range so you’d expect more consistent quality. Pasta dishes were consistent and great both...
