"This is a stylish modern restaurant complete with a splendid terrace. Diners are assured of a delightful dining experience not only thanks to the excellent service provided by owner Daniela Roch and her team: Phillip Schnabel brings great culinary skill and years of experience at top-flight establishments to the table. In the evening, he serves up dishes such as Allgäu venison with celeriac, hazelnut, cherry and purple curry. His cuisine is packed with flavour, intricate and sophisticated – but in no way contrived; it relies on high-quality fresh ingredients and a healthy dose of creativity. A vegetarian set menu is also available. At lunchtime, this place becomes more of a bistro with a somewhat simpler menu. Tip for motorists: There is an underground car park right next to the building." - Michelin Inspector

We have ordered two 5-course menu incl. one vegan. We enjoyed the dinner especially BBQ Sellerie, Thunfisch and desserts. Wine pairing was also great. Very nice staff. But very expensive. The most expensive dinner in my life so far 😅

An amazing restaurant in an unlikely location. Definitely worth the effort to get there. Meal was delightful - we took the vegetarian 6 courses with a pairing of non-alcoholic drinks. A mix of very different flavours and textures. The staff were very happy to speak English to us. The ambience is professional but not overly formal.

Very nice and relaxed athmosphere in the restaurant. The wine pairing to the food was excellent. The food looks great and the favourite of the evening were the risotto, tamago and the side bread. On the main dish, the winter cod, the curry flavoured soupc was a bit overwhelming the delicate taste of the fish but still very palatable to eat.

The food was amazing, worth the experience! I had the 5-course menu. Keep in mind that it takes time to go through all the courses, you need to have time.

We spent a wonderful evening here: it was a very interesting mix of tastes with a beautiful presentation. The personnel was very kind and delicate. Plus a nice romantic atmosphere... yes, the place is definitely worth coming! Ps. There is also large underground parking and 3 hours being paid by the restaurant;)

Outstanding food, beautiful atmosphere, impeccable service, and right by the S Bahn Pasing station. I attended a birthday dinner here, and the staff made us feel like we were right at home and took great care of us. Highly recommend!

Conceptually a nice place but the cuisine itself needed refinement. I had the five course tasting menu skipping the cheese course. The menu consisted of scallops, clam soup, fish, deer and ice cream with mousse. The soup, deer and and a consume that was served as an amuse-bouche were the highlights. The rest left a lot to be desired. My main problem was the overlap of a brown sauce that repeated through multiple courses. It especially was off putting with the fish. Wine by the glass was great. Service was on point.

Wonderful kitchen that never compromises. Always original and extraordinary good. I look forward to each visit as I know l will get surprised. A must try for anyone who enjoys good food. Easily in my top 10 (if not 5) restaurants in Munich.
