Atelier im Bayerischen Hof

incredible experience from start to finish! Every detail was thoughtfully executed, and the service was flawless. What truly stood out was the chef personally being part of the serving crew—bringing out each course, engaging with guests, and making sure everything was perfect. The food was not only beautifully presented but bursting with flavor. It was warm, intimate, and unforgettable. Honestly, this experience was much better than Jan, which is a 3-star Michelin restaurant. This deserves every bit of 5 stars—and then some!

Anton Gschwendtner is the chef and brings out the dishes in the restaurant. He looks like he is cooking his heart out or as they say in Munich doing whatever your heart wishes in terms of Michelin star cooking. We went for 5 courses at 250 euro but feel like they gave us a lot more. The food is exquisite. My friend had the vegetarian menu, I had meat. Anton should win awards for incredible vegetarian cooking (which is usually in most restaurants considered a second class citizen). Those dishes mirrored the excellence of my meat dishes. One course I had included a small tube of pastry with steak tartar. I would not have chosen this on a menu but it melted in my mouth quite outstanding softness and favour. There are endless beautiful courses. All with some of the finest ingredients one could imagine. It really was a magnificent evening. It is pricey but worth every euro. Really you cannot imagine how your bill is not 1000 euro each. We opted not to have a wine pairing and chose wine from the menu. I paid 59 euro for a half bottle red (think montepulciano) but found it young and disappointing. Had much better at the Charles hotel the next day with a cheaper Chianti. Am now in switzerland and the cab franc again better than both for less money. So not sure whether the restaurant just has an expensive wine list just because it’s an expensive wine list without the calibre of a good selection am not sure. A person could say well you should have had the wine pairing but I’m not sure if I would have been disappointed (and very drunk). Anyway this should not put you off - it is one of the best food experiences I’ve had. On the atmosphere it was designed Belgian art dealer Axel Vervoordt. Did I like it? Not really but it is calming and seats comfortable. In fact I think it doesn’t feel artistic but the waiter explained it’s more about the feeling. So in that case I agree - we had a very enjoyable night. We did say hello to Anton. My friend liked her celeriac dish the best. It is fancy so you must expect to sit through the process. It’s not a quick evening. There is a 7 course option with cheese.

Dining at Restaurant Atelier is truly an amazing experience. The moment you sit down, you know you are in for a very special treat. The atmosphere is intimate and beautiful. We elected for a seven course meal and every course was delicious, well-prepared, and most pleasing to the eye and palette. The wine suggestions were also perfect and complemented our choices. The service is impeccable, with courses being delivered on trays by the exceptional staff. My personal favorites were the cheese trolley and my birthday treat, chocolate cake in a personalized box! If you are in Munich and are a foodie, this is the place to have a once in a lifetime experience!

This was an easy 5 star review. We are on vacation in Munich and decided to try this 2 Michelin star restaurant. First of all, the staff were exceptional. Their attention to detail, knowledge of the food and wines, and care for us as customers, was the best we have ever experience. Second, the wine and drinks paired perfectly with the courses and we left (slightly) drunk and very happy. Finally, the food was the best we’ve ever had. We like to try a Michelin rated restaurant on every vacation, and this was by far the most delicious. We got the 7 course vegetarian option, and every course was somehow a step above the previous tasting. Our favourite was the Gnocchi or the egg yolk dish. Amazing flavours, every dish was truly a piece of art, and perfect portion sizes. We left full, buzzed, and extremely happy with our experience at Atelier. Cheers from Canada!

I had such a fun and delicious dinner at Atelier. The restaurant was very kind to accommodate a younger diner in our group. Surprisingly the fish dishes here are amazing given how inland Munich is. The hamachi and the sturgeon are some of the best that I have had. Wagyu is handled perfectly as well as it is not too rich. The pineapple with boozy cake for dessert is absolutely fun to enjoy. A couple of dishes are salty for my taste, but I heard that German palates are on the salty side. Service is top-notch. Ambience is modern and inviting.

We had the pleasure of dining at Atelier, a gem that fully lived up to its reputation — and then some. From the moment we stepped in, the ambiance was refined yet welcoming. The staff struck a perfect balance between formality and warmth, making us feel genuinely cared for throughout the evening. Each course was a masterclass in creativity and technique. The tasting menu showcased seasonal ingredients elevated through precision and imagination. Portions were perfectly judged, the pacing was impeccable, and the service was intuitive without ever feeling intrusive. If you're looking for a destination-worthy dining experience that combines artistry, flavor, and flawless execution, Atelier deserves a spot at the very top of your list.

Amazing culinary experience, The seven course menu will get you to heaven and bring you back. The starter had amazing texture and design. The main dish was absolutely fantastic the lamb was cooked enough to melt in your mouth.

When you visit a restaurant with a Michelin star rating, you have some expectations. Usually, we have too high expectations and are often disappointed by the food or service that is not good enough for the price. This restaurant is different. You will stick to the basics from start to finish, but focus on every dish. When eating a course meal, it often gets boring toward the end when the food's storytelling or variety is lacking. But this restaurant injected tension into every dish. There was never a dull moment. I believe chef has abundant experience with international cousins and applies freely to his delicately prepared dish. Also, Wine pairing was so special. Personally, I haven't had much experience with German wine, so it may be a novelty for me, but it matches perfectly with the food. If I ever visit Munich again, I'll be sure to come back here to this restaurant.

It was our first time here after Anton Geschwendter took over the kitchen. It was recently awarded 2 Michelin starts less than a year after Anton took over and it's more than deserving of the stars. I look forward to this place regaining its 3rd star. Exceptional cuisine and generous kitchen. Loved each and every course and some of my favorites were the Mackarel, Wagyu A5, Beetroot pre dessert, the veal tartare, the pralines and the amazing dessert with passion fruit sauce. It was truly divine. Service was excellent and I was very happy to see a fabulous selection of German wines on the list. The list of French wines needs drastic improvements in my opinion. And also some more new world wines like Australia or NZ would make it a truly well rounded list. Wine prices are on the high side for me. Happily come here again anytime. It's amazing food from a young chef that has so much talent.

This was the best culinary experience of my life. Every aspect of the experience was outstanding and exceeded my expectations.

Well would have liked to try this restaurant but my request to move the reservation went unanswered and of course this is a restaurant that simply charges the full ride if you miss your reservation- a full €300 for absolutely nothing. Usually a restaurant of this caliber would check the day before with people to ensure they are able to make the reservation in case mixups like this occur. Yes I do realize it was our fault. But a little communication when reservations are made months in advance would be appreciated when you are supposedly a high caliber restaurant. We have been to many, many Michelin starred restaurants and this is the first time I have ever had an issue and been charged such a heart stopping price. I would recommend that there are other restaurants in Munich like Hotel Königshof that treat customers willing to pay this much for a meal with more courtesy. So diners beware- you will wait months for the table and any hiccup will result in full charge.

Wonderful dinner with numerous outstanding dishes: Mother of Pearl, trout, and venison. The sommelier recommended me a Spatburgander that reminded me of a Grand Cru Chambolle Musigny, for €120!!! Service is professional and formal. The food is on the heavy side with lots of butter and cream. There must have been at least 25 courses in the prix fixed menu. We were so stuffed that we did not have room for the cheese course. (It didn't help that my wife and I asked for an extra entree, the venison)
