Very old building with different levels for eating. Both food and service were excellent and would definitely recommend. I had the schnitzel and my husband had the beef roulade, both were delicious. However the service was so different from anywhere else we ate, the waitress was friendly and even spoken us - very rare in Munich . For two courses,... More

Authentic Bavarian cuisine served in a cosy relaxed atmosphere. It felt like I was going back in time to delicious meals at my grandmother's house. Everything we had was absolutely delicious. To warm yourself up try the consome with dumplings and pancake, a traditional favourite. The gulasch, the suckling pig and the boiled beef with horseradish were all delicious, as... More

Fast and attentive service, very big plates. Food is very tasty like home-made. One thing that was strange: we spent 50 euros for food and beverages and they include 10 euro tips in the bill. Anyways, highly recommended!

The restaurant was quiet and welcoming, with very good Bavarian food. It was a welcome respite from the Oktoberfest crowds, and the spaetzle and kase (cheese) was the perfect comfort food for a rainy day. The location is right off Marienplatz and there is a fun button store nearby. The tureens of goulash, followed by apfel strudel are a must.

Near Marienplatz, this classy venue offers a pleasant courtyard dining option and would normally have been quiet, too. On our visit the property was undergoing renovations in one wing. The food and service were still fine. Food is based on tradition but with a contemporary take. We wanted to enjoy one last dish of German potato salad. My chicken salad... More

A tour guide had recommended this place among several others. We walked by the others and scratched them off the list (too stuffy, too touristy, to big city). Then we found this gem. One block off the Marienplatz, this historic bistro/restaurant oozes history, good beer, great food, great service, (English and French menu readily available), and a real appreciation of... More

We had a very good lunch here. We happened upon the place when walking around the city. Traditional and unique foods. I tried the smoked fish-beet soup. Great service and atmosphere.

Had lunch at the Hofer and enjoyed the experience, the staff were excellent and the choice of dishes was good. A good atmosphere with a mix of locals and tourists with no problems for us English speakers, I will certainly go again

We had an unofficial dinner with clients/partners the evening before an event here, and I enjoyed the food very much. In addition to the food being good, I liked the idea of the all-you-can-eat entree meal, specially for an unofficial business event like this, when people arrived at different times, it was an advantage that we didn't have to wait...

Our first meal there was spur of the moment as it started to rain when we were passing, but we went back several times as the food was very good, reasonably priced and the surroundings were so perfect for a feeling of "old Munich".
