Schwarzreiter Tagesbar & Restaurant — Restaurant in Munich

I had great expectations for a 1-star meal, however, the food at this restaurant was lacking that level of quality in nearly every aspect. The flavors in most dishes just weren't exciting and distinctive. Sure, there was lots on display with ever plate, however, it all seemed to taste the same. The worst additions in that regards were numerous purees of different colors accompanying every dish which had the texture of baby food and equally bland flavors. The worst offender in terms of "covering up" the star ingredient of the dish was the "Bavarian garnele" ... locally farmed shrimp that were covered in so much curry-based batter that the delicate crustacean was lost both in regards to volume as well as texture. It was a rather large dish and there wasn't enough flavor here because the chance to spice things up with the curry crust was missed. The asparagus plate was okay, but again, too many things to dip and mix in, muddling what are delicate flavors. If the description of the dishes sound like odd combinations to you, the plates themselves will be even more so because there are so many other elements going on that aren't listed. Had to try the rabbit. The center loin piece was nicely cooked (not too done) however, if that was wrapped in some green paste casing which just confused the pure flavors of the meat. The rest of the plate was utterly unmemorable. The air-dried beef was also well cooked, but just too salty. And the rectangular little pile of aubergine slices that sat alongside the meat was so overdone that there was no texture nor much flavor left. The sturgeon and caviar was equally bland and disappointing. The dollop of caviar added nothing other than a visual component. It had no crunch and no pronounced caviar flavor to bring another dimension to the dish. Again, the piece of sturgeon was cooked nicely, but lacked anything else on the plate to play up its subtle flavor and texture. We also noticed that all of the 5,6 hot dishes that we ordered arrived at the table lukewarm. I went with the wine pairing while my dinner partner did not. It was a great choice, but a chef doesn't get a star for wine pairings.... At the end, I was utterly stuffed but longing for a plate of 3,4 perfectly paired ingredients that create a dish with acidity, a blend of salt and sweetness, even a little spice and an edge of heat. I would have exchanged the whole 5 course meal for one of those. Needless to say, we skipped desert since the two options just sounded overly sweet. I seriously would like to have a chat with the critic who awarded this recognition to this chef. No wonder the place was only half-booked on a...

Since the very first weekend of my arrival in Munich on May 12, 2024, Schwarzreiter Tagesbar & Restaurant has been an integral part of my journey. Over the past year and a half, I have frequented this extraordinary establishment almost every other Sunday, and it has grown into far more than a place to dine. It is a sanctuary where I have celebrated joyful milestones and sought solace during life’s more challenging moments—a place that has become inseparable from the narrative of my life in Munich.

I have introduced friends and visitors from around the globe— New York, Philadelphia, New Jersey, Asunción and even local acquaintances from Munich—to this culinary gem, and each has left enchanted. The service is impeccable, attentive, and imbued with genuine warmth, while the cuisine is a constant revelation. I delight in exploring the regular menu, yet more often I entrust myself to the “menu of the day,” allowing the chef’s creativity to unfold as a daily surprise. Each dish is a masterful composition, executed with precision and elegance, rivaling the highest standards of New York, London, or Paris.

The thoughtful care of the staff elevates the experience further. I am partial to coffee with a dusting of cinnamon—a detail rarely observed in Germany—but at Schwarzreiter, they went to great lengths to accommodate this small wish, exemplifying their remarkable attentiveness.

This is a place I call home in Munich. It is unforgettable, capable of evoking a smile with every visit, and it will forever hold a cherished place in my heart. I am profoundly grateful to the chef and the entire team at Schwarzreiter Tagesbar & Restaurant for their warmth, dedication, and for the indelible memories they have...

We booked this place for lunch at 2 pm. Very pretty, nice, posh environment. Took a very long time to take our order. 2 starters, burrata and Consome, 4 mains. A long time into having ordered, we got the starters.

Unexplainable since burrata is not cooked at all and consome should be made so what was the delay for? After that, we were already well into 3.45 pm, (nearly 2 hours), still no mains. Went to ask, and the girl at the counter replied, "Would you like to leave?" "What? No, I want my food. " .

After that, our server, a very nice girl, came to tell us that they order the mains once you have finished your starters, hence the delay.

Well, in my business experience with restaurants, we ordered the mains once they had their starters, so there is no more than a few minutes between one dich and the next. This way, the customer doesn't lose their appetite and gets angry in the process.

In regards of the food: burrata and consome were nice, risottos niced as well, schnitzel was good, however I asked to replace my daughters potato salad for French fries, they agreed but never did. I was not going to wait for them to replace it (at this point, it's past 2 hours there and 4 pm for a lunch) so she simply ate half her dish.

They invited my sister to a cake (single portion, just for her (4 spoons just in case, but c'mon. It was her birthday) but didn't even consider a little something for the rest of the guests due to not just the birthday but the two and a half hour meal. Nothing. Not even a coffee or a little chocolate invite.

Big disappointment. We chose this place due to the good reviews, but if you want to have a nice memory of a meal, I can not recommend this...
