Restaurant Sparkling Bistro

Amazing Austrian restaurant in Munich. I visited the restaurant with my family, and we all went for the tasting menu. I must say that course after course I kept getting surprised, what a delicious dinner! Staff was specially kind, and helped us to get the best wine and cocktail choices.

The food was exceptionally good! I could not say which one of the 6 dish was the best. An unique experience culinary experience in Munich. The waiters were professional and friendly and made us feel comfortable. However I found the waiting time between each dish too long and it would be great to offer a 4 or 5-dish menu for the ones eating less.

A fantastic find in Munich! This restaurant delivers a chef-inspired tasting menu with creative twists on Austrian and German classics using fresh, local ingredients. The bread is outstanding, and the service is warm and attentive, creating a relaxed yet memorable dining experience. The wine selection is impressive, with excellent choices from Germany, Austria, and France. While it’s a bit of a splurge, the quality and attention to detail make it absolutely worth it.

The Sparkling Bistro hides in an unassuming courtyard inside some 70s residential buildings, literally a hidden gem. The lunch menu at 85€ is very good value for their offerings. Our appetizer was some small finger food with a biscuit and bacon taste, which reminded us of the barbecue-flavored potato chips. The cream one had a bitter note. Both appetizers were quite strongly seasoned. The lobster starter was very good: perfectly cooked lobster in a herbal flavor soup. It had some celery notes to it and also has a bitter hint. The soup was a clear color tomato soup, interesting visual, refreshing subtle acidity. The bitter salad that follows was not my favorite, but it's definitely creative from the ingredients, the plating as well as the flavors. For instance, the main vegetable was puntarelle, the "volcano asparagus". The most conventional part was the Hollandaise sauce. The main dish was Blonde d'Aquitaine, a kind of French beef. I think it's very well cooked to medium with a relatively strong sauce that complements it. The dessert is chocolate cream with some ginger flavored sauce, topped by cardamom ice cream. It's again interesting and creative, but probably not to everyone's taste. For people into Chinese food, the combination of ginger and cardamom reminds of a common braised meat dish (Chinese Goulash). These amplified the bitterness of the dark chocolate, and didn't complement the coffee like a normal sweet dessert. It's probably better to enjoy the dessert on its own or with tea instead. Out of the 5 dishes, the consistent flavor was a slight bitter note, that is quite unexpected and interesting, but in a good way. The lunch menu also came with a 55€ wine pairing that we didn't take. We got two glasses of non-alcoholic drinks, which costs about 15€ a bottle. We had about 100 ml per glass for 30€. Considering that restaurants usually charge triple the cost for drinks, this seems rather steep (5-6x the cost) compared to the reasonably priced lunch menu.

Superb spot for fine dining lunch in the heart of Munich. Our highlight was the deer with the paired red wine. The restaurant's location inside a residential courtyard added a cozy, intimate atmosphere.

A perfect evening with amazing food, great service, and fantastic wines! Although being a Michelin-star restaurant the service is unpretentious, personal and relaxed. It's absolutely worth every Euro you spend! This was definitely not the last time we enjoyed the Sparkling Bistro! A must-visit in Munich for great food. Thank you!

One of the more hidden Michelin Star gems in Munich where you can even sit outside in a very calm and cozy yard with a little fountain that provides peaceful soothing water sounds while you indulge in various courses of amazing food. The service was outstanding, very caring about every single detail and not shy of making everything possible for us. The courses were absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend to take the classic Kaisergranat if you visit. We initially had a reservation for a different restaurant but changed our mind after we saw a few recommendations about Sparkling Bistro. If you are in Munich and want to have a gourmet dinner - look no further. The pricing is absolutely reasonable for what you get and is not overly expensive like many other Michelin restaurants in Munich nowadays. We will for sure come again! Thanks

We celebrated our wedding anniversary. It was one of our best food experience. The vegetarian option was close to the meat/fish dishes which we very much enjoyed. It made it feel special. The wine pairing was excellent! The service was very thoughtful and extremely kind which made us feel very welcome.

Ich kam für ein Mittagessen ohne Reservierung vorbei, hatte aber einige Schwierigkeiten, dieses kleine Restaurant zu finden - es hat einige Fenster, die auf einen kleinen Innenhof hinausgehen, der von der Straße aus nicht direkt zugänglich ist. Da nur ein anderer Gast da war, genossen wir beide das Ambiente, das Essen und den sympathischen Sommelier, als wären wir allein. Besonders gut hat mir der Steinbutt mit gehobelter Schafszunge geschmeckt. / I stopped in for a "no-reservations" lunch, but had some difficulty finding this small restaurant - it has a few windows facing a small courtyard that is not immediately accessible from the street. With only one other diner, we each enjoyed the ambiance, food and personable sommelier as if we were each alone. I especially enjoyed the turbot with shaved sheep tongue. 2024 03 22. M1.
