Nudelhaus Sano — Restaurant in Munich

Got udon only. Udon noodle quality is good. Broth is a little too salty, but overall manageable and hits the spot (Say 4/5). Where it all goes away was the service. Got there 30 minutes before close (which is quite a bit for the bar-single-person-eating-noodle table set up. Was told they don't have space before close. I saw that a group was about to cash out (which was going to make quite a bit of space). I persisted front and waited. Got in ~ 20 minutes to close. Was reminded they close and I have to be out asap. I Immediately ordered, it came in like 5 minutes, ate, was out by 10 minutes to close (many others still there). Asked where chopsticks were (as it wasn't in the usual box with the napkins) was ignored. Rushed/pestered so hard to pick something (when clearly there was sufficient time). When I asked for the bill, I got ignored, I asked again to get it then saw eye rolls ... They only take cash below 20 euros......

No other toppings like nori or egg not to mention that any balance of the ingredients was as absent as the flavours itself.

Definitely no recommendation, this was a huge...

The waitress was very mean and unfriendly, treating white and Asian faces differently. On an exceptionally cold day in December 2023, our group of four went to this restaurant. There were no seats available for a group of four, so the waitress, with a sour face, made us stand outside in the cold wind and didn't let us wait inside. After a long wait, two white women arrived, and the waitress cheerfully led them to their seats. Shouldn't there be a queue system that respects the order of arrival? Do we have to keep waiting indefinitely if there are no tables for four, while smaller groups arriving later get...
