Ahimsa Restaurant in München

A charming gem tucked away from the city center's main dining arteries. The first impression is extremely pleasant: a seemingly friendly welcome, accompanied by a smile, immediately conveys the feeling of being welcomed. The initial service is attentive and unobtrusive, clearly striving to guide guests into an atmosphere of relaxed culinary delights within their 90-minute stay, entirely in keeping with the spirit of the establishment. The cuisine is convincing: creatively vegan, finely seasoned, with a sense of nuance. One feels invited to end the evening in a delightful way, perhaps with dessert and a final glass. But just at this moment, the guest is discreetly yet unmistakably informed that time has passed. The friendly request for the bill or the alternative of enjoying dessert in the cool 14-degree courtyard without the heater quickly fade the charm of the smile-filled opening sequence. Because, as much as the restaurant seems to have been concerned about the guest's well-being at the beginning, it's happy when they make room for the next person. However, they don't want to miss out on the revenue. It's not so much the time limit itself that's regrettable, but the way it's implemented. The overall concept seems almost too consistent in its consistency: fusion cuisine combined with a subtle invitation to fusion with the exit. The appetizer is too personal, the main course too unpresentable, and the dessert is completely absent.

Good food, good drinks, kind staff. We were there on a really hot day, and it was pretty warm inside, but that’s probably true of most places this size in Munich.

Consistently delivers good food! :)

Super delicious vegan food. Making reservations online worked really well. We'll be back!

Food is great, a bit pricy but it's worth it and service is also great!

Great food, although it's right on the street, which is why it loses points, but the service is very friendly. In short, it's simply delicious, and the prices are unbeatable! We'd be happy to go again :)

The atmosphere was wonderful. Beautifully hidden in the area and definitely a nice place to have a relaxed evening. However the food wasn’t as I had hoped. Starters were good but lacking salt and flavours. I had the Rahmen as a main which can be briefly summarised as plain. Unfortunately the veggies (carrots and zucchini) inside were also quite raw. Relaxed atmosphere but nothing for people who like spices.

The food was delicious, and the service was super friendly and quick. The ambiance lost one star because the seating was relatively close together in the outdoor area.

I loved it! The food was delicious, the waitresses were friendly, and the atmosphere was quite cozy! I highly recommend it! And they also have ice and lemon in the queue ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Absolutely nothing special, food relatively tasteless, but too expensive

Amazing food! I loved the curry with the seitan duck, the gyozas and the banana balls.

Yesterday, my boyfriend and I had a birthday dinner at Ahimsa. We had the sweetest service, the most delicious food, and the most wonderful time. From appetizers to dessert; everything was fantastic! We'd love to go again! :)

Unfortunately, it was very loud and difficult to hold a conversation. The tables were very close together. Unfortunately, the food was too greasy and didn't taste particularly good.

We came to Ahimsa because of the good reviews on Google – and were unfortunately disappointed. The food was very greasy and tasteless, and we were repeatedly reminded that our reservation was about to expire. The tables were far too close together, making it very noisy. Unfortunately, the value for money wasn't right for us. We won't be back.

We had a larger event and felt that Duy looked after us very well - from the arrangement to the implementation. The food is soooo delicious and the service was great too! We would be happy to come back at any time, dear Ahimsa team! Celebrating and feasting is fun!

Friendly courteous service. Food top. Toilet clean.

We had only ordered something through Wolf but couldn't decide online. The food was so delicious! I'm very glad that I ordered too much yesterday so that I still have something today ❤️

Great place! Love, love, love the vegan crispy calamaris, but all other dishes are amazing too. Always satisfying whether you dine in, take out, or get it delivered.

I celebrated my bday here, everyone thought it was really cool!!! awesome

Beautiful selection/options and presentation of meals. Great food quality!

From the service to the vegan dishes, everything is TOP. That's how you imagine good gastronomy! The cute backyard/terrace is especially cool. You feel like you're in Asia. Very happy again.

Very friendly staff. Ambience is ver cozy and fantastic flavour in both food and drinks

The has Fried calamari, Cryspy Gyozo, Summer garden and something like Bao Bao Buns (don’t remember the exact name). The first 3 were great, highly recommend but the last one was okay. The price is a bit in the higher side.

Ah, the ahimsa! A place that not only stimulates the senses, but also makes the soul vibrate a little. You sit down at the table, surrounded by an atmosphere that immediately gives you a feeling of peace and security. The food? A dream! Every bite feels like a little hug for the taste buds. But then comes that little downer - the gentle hint that it's time to vacate the place. I mean, who wants to interrupt a great evening? It has a slightly bitter aftertaste when the friendly waitress asks you with a smile if you would like to leave slowly. Sure, you understand that the table might have to be set aside for someone else, but a little more time in Ahimsa would have been nice! Nevertheless, let's be honest: the great service, the delicious food and the enchanting ambience are so great that I just can't take the little "kicking out" badly. Maybe it's the secret of good gastronomy - you leave the place because you just felt good at that moment. And that's exactly why I like to come back to Ahimsa again and again.

All vegan, well balanced food, a great opportunity to try vegan sushi if you haven't before. The menu was also clear and helpful for my friend who is gluten-free.

The food was OK, but not appropriate for the higher price. We expected more. However, the service was very good.

Very good food, vegetarian and vegan, friendly service, but very loud.

An absolute recommendation from my side. I was skeptical at first because I've never been to a purely vegan restaurant, but the Bao Bun Trio was absolutely delicious and I would order it again in a heartbeat

Absolutely great vegetarian restaurant 👌

The food yesterday was excellent. Everything was perfect for us and the service was super friendly :)

Quite spontaneously and very surprisingly, five of us went to Ahimsa. We put 5 dishes in the middle and shared them - everything was absolutely delicious. Various Sushi, bowl, breaded avocado, edamame, bao bun... and everything is vegan without missing anything. Really an insider tip.

Service super friendly, facility 100%, food also really tasty, could have been a little warmer and the price was also in the upper half! But just the fact that there is another excellent vegan option in MUC makes it worth 5 stars! We'll be back :) Addition 02.2025: we still like to come by for nice service and food. But what you really have to say is that 1 1/2 hour time slot for a table is very tight and unfortunately when the room is full, conversations are hardly possible because it gets ultra loud in there.

Highly recommended, very tasty food and very friendly staff as well as a nice atmosphere.

Fine, a touch of vegan, not dogmatic. Asian Fusion cuisine - Attention: the kitchen closes at around 9:30 p.m

Excellent food but the tables are too close which doesn't give you any privacy

We are recurring regulars and love this restaurant. Even as nonvegans we crave their cooking! Love the different sushi’s they have which are all VEGAN and FINGERLICKIN‘ GOOD!!!

it’s a cozy place with very nice and friendly staff. The dishes we ate were very delicious!

Excellent delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere. All of us were satisfied with our portion. Reservation in advance is highly recommended as it was in high demand the evening we were there.

Food (Ramen) was sadly disappointing. Service was nice but nothing special. The atmosphere was pretty nice though. Ramen are not real ramen. More like spagetti with strong veggie broth and was wayy too expensive!! Can't recommend sadly. Also reserved and especially wished for a cozy corner table but received a super uncomfy one beneath the bar. Better go to Bento Ya!

Unfortunately you only get one slot for 1 1/2 hours. We had booked longer to enjoy our girls' evening. As a result, the waitress stood at our table every 10 minutes and asked for new orders. The food, well. We had a range of starters. Avocado, some root that was offered as calamari on the menu. Both are fried, so you can't go wrong. Even a brick tastes fried. The seaweed salad was great, but not a revelation. All in all, the waitress's annoyance after further orders was the reason to spontaneously end the evening there and continue our girls' evening elsewhere.

Very tasty food...unfortunately not much variety on the menu...if you've been a customer for a long time...if the reservation time is limited, the food should come quicker...otherwise recommended without reservation

The food was fantastic, the drinks were excellent. Unfortunately the service was subpar. After we received the main course, our table was ignored. It is therefore not possible to order a second drink or dessert. Distanced and dominant, after 40 minutes we received the order to pay. A time limit on the table is now normal, but this should still be pointed out and the menu should at least be able to be finished.

We went to Ahimsa on a Friday. We enjoyed an absolutely excellent dinner and stylish ambience. The menu is small, but still absolutely sufficient for you to be able to choose what suits you at the moment. The choice of drinks was very interesting - no run-of-the-mill creations and at the same time a few “tried and tested” things if you don't have any desire to experiment. Kombucha Spritz, for example, was really my thing - but not for my companion. He was very satisfied with exceptional Berliner-Munich beer. Unfortunately, it wasn't clear to us beforehand that a table reservation is limited to 1.5 hours and we had to vacate the table at 6:30 p.m. We were actually expecting a long evening with lots of drinks in a relaxed atmosphere. The “warning” when we entered the restaurant left us a little stressed throughout our stay and made us constantly look at the clock. I'm afraid we won't be treating ourselves to this great dining experience for our precious "child-free" date nights anymore because the stress factor was already negligible. This limitation may be mentioned when making a reservation by telephone; we reserved via Google Option and were therefore a bit confused. Too bad.

So delicious. Totally nice waitresses. Very cool atmosphere, the deduction comes from the fact that it's really very narrow because of all the tables.

I've been here a few times and can really recommend the restaurant for vegan food. The gyoza have become a real craving! I always find it quite cramped in the restaurant itself, as well as outside in the summer, and therefore relatively loud. But that's just because of the location. I have always found the service to be quick and very friendly

I have eaten take out food from Ahimsa several times before and was disappointed with the dinner inhouse. We were rushed to order as soon as possible. We have ordered a mix of starters and bao buhn. The food arrived cold and not tasty, the calmari was chewy and hard as a rock. At the end of the meal we were reminded that our 1,5 h is almost up, so we paid and left. I understand the need of making numbers, but the overall feeling was really unpleasant and cold ( the place was also literally cold ). Really disappointed ☹️

I do enjoy occasional vegan culinary delights and this was a very good vegan Spot offering good and tasty vegan dishes. Will definitely recommend for both vegan and non-vegans.

mhhhh! The restaurant is rightly rated so well! The food is of high quality, extremely delicious (I don't necessarily eat vegan/vegetarian food myself), sufficiently portioned and the price-performance ratio is very fair for Munich. The only drawback: it was drafty and a bit fresh and the fit was quite tight.

Super delicious vegan food, great service - everything was wonderful.

Very tasty, good service. However, the space near the door is poor because the door is constantly opening and closing due to the delivery service.

My favorite restaurant in Munich!

Nice place, I liked the appetisers a lot! Main dishes are OK

Great service, great decor and extremely good food :)

Unfortunately I cannot recommend the restaurant. Main points of criticism: - too little choice of main courses - too expensive for the size of the portions (well, that's already standard in Munich) - Quality of the food: generally far too fatty; In my opinion, no fresh tofu was used, but rather these strange packaged, pre-fried tofu cubes from the Asian supermarket; The tofu certainly looked and tasted the same. - You sit quite tight. The waitresses were very friendly, but at least one waitress doesn't understand German and is simply spoken to in English, even on the phone. I studied English and that might make some people feel super cosmopolitan, but I find it strange when I have to speak a foreign language in a restaurant in my hometown. The fact that the dishes have English names is also a bit silly, especially when the German waitresses pronounce them incorrectly (“asparAgus”). The last points are just a side note, the main problem was the expensive, greasy food.

Nice restaurant in a quiet location. Unfortunately, I can't quite agree with everyone else's hype. The food was tasty, but nothing outstanding as I expected from the reviews. And definitely too expensive for a normal ramen. Service was good.

Really good vegan food, just something different. Beautifully prepared and simply very tasty. What's really special is the vegan duck made from Seitan, really good! I can absolutely recommend the store!

Delicious vegan food in a super pleasant atmosphere and decor with very friendly service

Very tasty and creative vegan dishes. The service was very nice and accommodating. The atmosphere is very pleasant. It's better to make a reservation to ensure you get a spot.

Excelent vegetarian (vegan?!) restaurant. It’s a bit hidden, but great surprise inside. It’s very pretty, small. The food is delicious, super tasty! We tried the udon and different sushi rolls, can highly recommend both.

- food was acceptable (for my taste). Curry was watery, a bit too salty, Hokkaido pumpkin didn’t have much taste. - very noisy - no private space, people sit too close way too each other. - not inclusive interior design. If you a bit big person, you probably cannot walk so easily between tables. Disrespectful.. - some staff is absolutely impolite. The girl was so pissed off, when we didn’t leave tips. She just went away w/o saying goodbye .. I will not come again.

Unfortunately it is very, very loud in the restaurant because the tables are close together. You can also stay for a maximum of 1.5 hours and will then be politely but firmly asked to leave. We had an appetizer and ramen and udon noodles. Unfortunately the food was very greasy and not particularly tasty. We didn't find it satisfactory for the price. The atmosphere itself is nice, but overall we wouldn't come back.

Super delicious ramen - all vegan! The starters were also delicious, we had baked avocados.

Nice location with a terrace in the inner courtyard, unusual menu, delicious food, guest-friendly and competent service, all in all a great experience

Best vegan restaurant nearby, unfortunately a bit expensive, very friendly service!!! :)

Food was amazingly tasty! Ambience was great! Great concept of using plant based food! All the people working at the restaurant were very warm!

Very very tasty food. Creative dishes. The baos are great!

Top! A real insider tip for all fans of vegan food. Actually, I'm stupid for recommending it here. :)

I recently dined at Ahimsa Restaurant and overall, had a positive experience. The food was delightful; we ordered mocktails, starters, noodles, and a bowl of soup, all of which were very tasty and well-prepared. While the staff was generally polite and sweet, there were moments when their presence felt a bit intrusive, which slightly disturbed our meal. However, they were well-intentioned, and this did not significantly detract from our overall dining experience. Based on the quality of the food and the courtesy of the staff, I would recommend this restaurant to others looking for a tasty meal in a friendly atmosphere.

Very tasty vegan dishes. You can actually find everything you like and if you don't know what to do next, the staff are very helpful and friendly. Good service and nice restaurant!

Five stars when it comes to gas lighting… I've eaten in the restaurant before and it was delicious, but today the curry was so salty that you couldn't eat it. I usually always add a lot of salt myself because I like it spicy, but the food at Ahimsa tasted like a bucket of glutamate had been dropped into the sauce. The worst thing, however, was how I was treated on the phone when I tried to complain about the food - they tried to persuade me that maybe it was me: "Did you also eat rice with it, otherwise it's just salty?" As if I were eating my curry plain without rice. And “if you think that’s salty”… Well, you can’t expect a proper apology or polite gesture here. After I was able to convince her to make the meal again, the exact same sauce came out, just as salty as before. Then I asked for my money back. It doesn't matter if you oversalt something, but I expect that at least I won't be fooled. In any case, I won't order anything here anymore.

Definitely one of the best vegan restaurants in Munich. The food is great and the service too.

One of the best (vegan) restaurants in Munich. The food is really great and the service too. We were in the inner courtyard, the "terrace". It was busy and therefore a bit crowded, but still very nice.

Very friendly service and excellent food.

Overall, the food was delicious and the space in the courtyard was perfect in this weather. You sit quite close to each other, but that was fine. Big city. The avocado makis were delicious, but could have been rolled more tightly. The girlfriend's inside outs also fell apart a bit. The udon noodles (variant with mushrooms) were also very tasty, although cooked a little too soft. Overall, I can warmly recommend the food there and I would come back at any time. I'm complaining at a high level here 🙃

Delicious vegan dishes. Sushi and udon noodles highly recommended

We had a wonderful evening at Ahimsa yesterday. Every dish was incredibly delicious. We can particularly recommend the sushi, but also the crispy calamari.

Small but well thought out and brilliantly good card. All the people who work here are very pleasantly relaxed and in a good mood and provide fast and friendly service. Real feel-good aura, even if it is often full and quickly gets loud, also because it is sometimes quite crowded. Absolute recommendation, I will definitely come back.

The team (competent and highly friendly), the food (varied and tasty), the atmosphere (casual and stylish) were excellent! We celebrated our summer party here, which we won't soon forget. Over and over again!

We found the food incredibly delicious! Really one of the best curries and one of the tastiest glass noodle salads we have tried in Munich so far! In addition, fair prices for Munich and a nice atmosphere and service. Definitely recommended!

Totally good! Great food and super-loving friends in service. It was nice with you.

My announced second visit, this time on the terrace. Due to the location, the ventilation was great here! Like last time, the food was very good and can only be recommended! My small point of criticism, which is certainly common in other countries and is unfortunately becoming more and more common here too: Sitting on top of each other xD You could also just sit everyone down at a large table - if everyone introduced themselves, it might be comfortable, but it was a bit uncomfortable somehow!

I ate here several times while in Munich. Everything I tried was delicious!

A really TOP address for eating vegan 👍 We would receive a very friendly welcome, advice and service. The food was very well prepared and served quickly, highly recommended

Delicious vegan food, nice atmosphere 😋

Very tasty vegan sushi 🍣, curry, ramen and much more. Helpful, nice service ✨️ gladly again.

This is a very good address for anyone who likes to eat vegan.

My new favorite restaurant in Munich! As a vegetarian, I was blown away by the options and taste of the food. It’s a bit more expensive but worth every cent. The staff were super friendly and kind. Definitely coming back here again and again.

Another very nice, delicious evening.

We made a reservation very spontaneously last night. Even though the restaurant was full, we received a very warm welcome. It is often difficult to find truly inspiring vegetarian/vegan dishes in Munich. But the food at Ahimsa was to die for (we had four different dishes) and the restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere. Absolute recommendation!

If there were ten stars, I would have given them! We spontaneously stopped by Ahimsa during our visit to Munich today. The reviews already sounded great and we just managed to get a spot on a Tuesday afternoon! the store was full!!! and rightly so! From the super nice and excellent service to the quantity and quality of the drinks and food, everything was simply top! Today where do you get told at the beginning, here you can see the menu, here is the toilet and if you want and you're not a fan of z. b. If there is coriander, we like to leave it out completely, or we can also add it to a small plate..! :) craziness! the prices are according to the city! the food is excellent! The calamari’s made from konjac root are insane! The homemade lemonades are not like in other shops, just syrup. I had coconut water with cucumber and lychee and that's exactly what I got! Coconut pieces, a lychee, lemon grass and two fresh slices of cucumber!!!!!!!! thank you for the perfect afternoon! We will come back and recommend you! Greetings from Ulm!

Food was delicious and filling!

The best and I mean the best restaurant in this city, from service to food. There is simply not a comparison. Our waitress was fantastic kind informative and friendly. The food was second to none. This place is a hidden gem to Munich. If I could recommend a better place I wouldn’t be able to. As a Londoner I have eaten in some fantastic restaurants but I was completely taken by surprise at the standard and quality of the food that touched my lips. COME HERE IF YOU KNOW WHATS GOOD FOR YOU.

One of my favourite vegan restaurant! I had the Udon Xao and the vegan Sushi. The Yuzu Sprizz was absoluetly refreshing and not to sweet. The atmosphere very cozy. My food and drinks came quick! The service was very helpful and very friendly. I will come again 🫰🏻

Food was very tasty, service was lovely. Reservations for 1.5 hours (!!!) are somewhat like a visit to the canteen, which means that the food is served very quickly. This destroys the feeling of hospitality and torpedoes relaxed conversations; you feel fobbed off, cashed in and - in a friendly way - thrown out. Also not nice: the plastic discs as separators between the tables, a relic from the Corona times.

Nice service, good food and nice ambience

The food was super fresh and delicious. The service staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. We'd love to come back!

Very very tasty!! Especially the sushis Crunchy Shrooms and Fried Avocado 🤌🏼 also Udon Xao top 👌🏼

Great, friendly team and super fast until the delicious food was on the table. This was definitely not my last visit.

Really nice vegan food and I enjoyed the atmosphere as well! Would recommend to make a reservation here as it’s quite popular 💜

Very tasty food - not just for vegetarians! The dishes are super tasty and spicy and very well balanced. Delicious homemade drinks and nice service. Gladly again!
