THE CLOUD by Käfer

Top experience, with a new gastronomic concept - culinary nomadism by Chef Jens Madsen who explores the flavors of Africa and distills them into small works of art on the plate - the most exciting restaurant in Munich and also the best of the ones I’ve tried. The drinks pairing by sommelier Luigi and house barkeeper Leopold match the level of the food with innovate drinks and unusual but tasty wines. Service of Bernd is also warm and knowledgeable. Add to that a unique location in the BMW world the result is a restaurant I can highly recommend and 2 stars are coming before you can blink 👍

The Cloud by Käfer is such a breath of fresh air — a beautifully designed space with a creative new concept that feels both modern and relaxed, hovering above BMW Welt. The food is absolutely outstanding — inventive, full of flavor, and clearly made with care and curiosity. With some fresh cents brought home from travels and combined with local ingredients. My favorites were the Bayerische Garnele, Lachsforelle, and Wagyu — each dish perfectly balanced and offering some unexpected complementary combinations that just work. The shrimp was delicate and bright, the trout was rich yet fresh, and the wagyu… simply unforgettable. What makes it even better is the young, kind, and genuinely down-to-earth people who create a warm, effortless atmosphere. It’s rare to find a place that combines creativity, taste, and hospitality so naturally. Highly recommend — can’t wait to come back, thanks so much Jens and team!

Outstanding service and exceptional cuisine truly a memorable dining experience. Every course was beautifully crafted and full of flavor, and the staff made us feel warmly welcomed throughout the evening.

We celebrated our wedding anniversary here. The place is located inside BMW welt building and the food and the service quality was top. There are two menus i) 8 courses food menu and ii) 8 courses wine menu where the guests are allowed to choose 5 - 8 of them with varying pricing. We went with food menu + ordered a bottle of wine omitting the wine tasting. It is quite pricey. Definitely sth to check prior to the reservation.

We had a six course tasting dinner here. The food generally tasted great, and it was elegantly presented. However, there were a few dishes that felt odd: the ham in the truffle "special" was very salty and felt out of place under a ton of spinach foam. The dish with scallops was nice, but for some reason there was scoop of fish tartar hiding in the middle — and that tasted significantly more of fish and the sea than the rest of the dish. I enjoyed the wines a lot, but the house cocktail was a (presumably very good) German sparkling wine (Sekt) with a splash of thyme and berry syrup: that didn't do anything good for the wine and it ended up looking like something you would serve as a kid's party. Im sure the syrup was homemade and excellent on its own, but I had expected something more for the "house" cocktail. We were served by a flurry of polite and friendly waiters. I would have liked them to explain the dishes more slowly (they did so when we asked). The six courses were too much for both of us (especially with all the small surprise dishes served in-between). Next time we'll go for five and I'll probably go for the vegetarian menu instead to see what the kitchen can do in this direction.

Well, what can I say — been to a few fine dining restaurants all over the world, and EssZimmer completely lives up to the expectations: presentation, creativity, of course the taste (or rather The Taste). 8-course menu is excellent, but we were too full by the end if it. So size up your abilities accordingly :)

First of all the staff is super friendly and professional. The interior is modern and stylish and the atmosphere is very comfortable. They even offer an chauffeur service after the dining. The sommelier did a great job advising us and the wine was very tasty. You get a lot of greetings from the kitchen and they all were delicious. We took 7 courses and they were super flavourful and it’s a dream when you’re able to experience so many different fitting flavours combined on one plate. But I have to say I find the single courses remarkable small. 👉🏻All in all you have to keep in mind that this is a luxury restaurant which is really expensive But if you cut that out the dishes are extraordinary and super tasty.

2 Michelin Star cuisine at perfection. For foodies here some facts what makes it special. They offer 2 menue versions and you can also change courses between them. They also offer an alcohol-free wine pairing and a BMW 7 Series shuttle service (free of charge). Service is very professional and friendly. I can only recommend.
