Cordo Bar in München

Great evening, we really enjoyed the food and drinks. Marco and Kathi provided great service and gave us perfect advice throughout the time and looked after us happily until the end. We can only recommend it to anyone looking for a good time with great drinks and food!

Heartfelt recommendation! Thank you Kathi and Marco for the great service! We would love to come back because of you❤️

New Year's Eve or not, I've never experienced a waitress forcing me to give a tip. After a discussion, she continued to insist on it because otherwise I wouldn't have been able to pay. I work as a trainee in the catering industry myself and understand the tipping problem, but as a regular worker or trainee I just don't think it's right to celebrate after tips (everything is expensive and everyone has to pay for their shit). I'm sorry that as a young 22 year old I don't can do more) The waitress was just brash and drunk and I don't know what to say about that

Best New Year's Eve!! Great food, good drink, great service. Gladly again, dear cordo team

Everything was great. Food, drinks and atmosphere! Very attentive team! Thanks for the great evening🎉

The Cordo Bar is a cozy tapas bar that is ideal for a cozy evening with friends or family. We chose the menu for three people and were more than happy with the selection. The offer was varied, enough for 3 people and of high quality. Everything seemed very freshly prepared. Eat: The dishes were consistently convincing. We particularly liked the calamari and the potatoes - both were perfectly prepared. The variety of dishes ensured there was something for everyone and the freshness of the ingredients was clearly noticeable. The price-performance ratio was also right: you get a lot of quality for your money here. The cocktails we had with it were also good. At around 12 euros per cocktail, they are reasonably priced and are perfect for rounding off the evening. service The service in the Cordo Bar surprised us very positively. The staff was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Our orders were taken quickly and served just as quickly, making the entire evening pleasant and smooth. You always felt well looked after. Ambiance The atmosphere in the Cordo Bar is cozy and pleasant. It can be a little louder in the front area, near the bar, which underlines the lively atmosphere. If you prefer something a little quieter, you can also find tables in a separate area. The furnishings and lighting contribute to a relaxed atmosphere that is perfect for an evening with small or large groups. We would definitely visit Cordo Bar again. The tapas bar impresses with delicious food, good value for money, attentive service and a pleasant atmosphere. It is suitable for smaller and larger groups alike and is definitely worth a visit.

Awesome food quality and service but the space is always crowded. We managed to secure hardly some seats

Service was super nice! Otherwise it would be 2 stars less! The food was very German! Not exactly cheap and if you don't even get some bread with baked sardines or pork ribs for €12 but have to buy that too then that's not worthy of a "Spanish" tapas bar! It's the Gärtnerplatzviertel and you can afford it! Unfortunately we won't be coming back.

Nice bar, attentive and very friendly staff. The food is very tasty. The plates for several people are plenty. Is a recommendation!

Food was great, the platter for 4-5 people has everything you need!

Nice local for tapas and drinks!

This bar is trying to remove bad comments. They tried to remove a 3 star comment from a friend that just said service wasn’t friendly. I was also there and can confirm.

The CORDO BAR had the following review of mine removed from Google. She probably does that with all ratings under 4 stars 😁 Hence another star deduction. Text from August: Food and drinks were ok. Service not very friendly. Price-performance wasn't quite right for us.

Everything we tried was delicious and the staff was very friendly. I lost my phone and the staff held it until I came looking. I would go back when back in Munich.

Nice selection of delicious tapas, wines and drinks! Friendly and attentive service! Certainly high prices, appropriate for Munich standards and the quality of the food! We cannot understand the criticism that has sometimes been made about the size of the portions for the tapas we ordered! We would love to come back next time we visit Munich!

Great food, great service, long waiting times and not that cheap but whatever🙌🏻 Once again in December 2024 we got a nice table without a reservation for an hour and had a nice meal🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

We were at a birthday event at the Cordo Bar and were super impressed by how great the ambience complemented the great service (thanks to Scott!) and the fantastic food.

Gluten-free meals and desserts were amazing. Michael was incredible and fully engaged in making the occasion special for everyone, especially in taking care of my gluten-free dietary needs. I truly appreciate this and highly recommend it.🫶✨️

Great service! The food was really good and the music was amazing. Jazz with vine and tapas= great combination!

It's a pleasure. Great food and wine. Great atmosphere, but very crowded on the weekend. I would recommend this place for weekdays.

Super delicious food and the platters with different tapas are the best because they have everything on them

My absolute favorite bar for Spanish specialties in Munich. The tapas are consistently delicious, and the paella is particularly recommended! 🥘

Overall a great little find with awesome food. Best is to come here as a bigger group to share as many tapas as possible.

We eat very well 🤩 the wine and delight the waitress or little care we thank him infinitely for his attentiveness and that's professionalism💕🌷

Excellent place! The tapas were really good. Our waitress was very attentive. Very lively place.

ScottiBoy was really a great waiter and created a great atmosphere! Because of Scott we would like to come back! TEAM ALEKS

Excellent place and amazing food!! The service was great too!! Tapas Combinada with Manchego was incredible! Highly recommend :)

Simply iconic and cozy. The piano in the back is great for spontaneous musical performances, as the Monaco Franzis women's choir recently showed. Always busy, but still really nice service, sometimes it takes a little longer, but you can live with that.

Very tasty tapas, also vegetarian and gluten-free. Nice attentive staff.

A true gem for tapas lovers! The food is fantastic, and the tapas are authentic and flavorful, perfect for sharing. Inside, the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot to unwind. It’s ideal for weekends when finding a place for a larger group can be tough – we’ve always been lucky to snag a spot here, even with a crowd. However, the cocktails were a bit of a letdown. I tried four different cocktails, but unfortunately, each one missed the mark. Despite this, it’s a great go-to spot in Munich for tapas and atmosphere!

I don't know if there is anyone Spanish in that restaurant to put a little judgment on the filthy garbage they call Spanish food. The croquettes are an unsmokable mess, the patatas bravas are neither potatoes nor bravas, the churros with chocolate are simply unacceptable. Luckily, the place is well decorated and beautiful and the service is quite good.

Unfortunately, the tapas were not only tasteless and completely authentic, but also caused massive stomach problems. Bartender friendly, but table service unfriendly and disinterested.

Nothing Spanish about the food - but portions were big, service very nice and the entire atmosphere was awesome. Will totally come back here for the good vibes ❤️

Waited 30 minutes and after asking several times and ordering was not served.

40 min to order, ok food , 40 min to leave…part of the order did not come

After I last visited the store during the Corona pandemic and was disappointed with the quality and portion size, I was very positively surprised last night! The ambience was as always, the Cordobar is very crowded, very narrow and very loud, you have to be able to handle that. The service was very attentive, friendly and quick, great! The quality of the food is excellent! I had the mixed starter with ham, salami and cheese, plus the divine baby ribs and bacon-wrapped dates, all freshly prepared and delicious! The prices are reasonable. It was a beautiful evening! Thanks!

There were two of us and we had tapas. The taste of all things was ok, but not so much that you would scream “wow”. What annoyed us most, however, were the portion sizes. With the bacon-wrapped dates you get a lousy 4 dates - which makes me think the portion is overpriced. 4 prawns (although quite large) are no reason to order it again. The fried sardines are a really huge dish in proportion - one could almost say too much. I also asked the waitress if there was bread with the tapas, she said no, whereupon I ordered a bread basket extra. In the end, two out of three tapas had bread slices for what I needed the bread for. Oh well... All in all, you have to say. It was ok but somehow not quite right. Unfortunately it didn't really pick us up in terms of food.

Excellent service, great drinks and tapas

prices are a bit too much for the small tapas you get. service wasn’t friendly. there was no music in the back area where we ate. we asked a couple of times and they tried to turn it up but it wasn’t audible.

A great restaurant! Very nice, inviting atmosphere and super friendly service. I'll definitely be back!

Food was good. We didn’t like that two different waiters came to ask us if they can take our plates while obviously we were still eating and taking it slowly 😅 after 2.5 hours the manager came to see if want something else and we asked to pay. Very rude- if you have a reservation after us, just please let us know until when our reservation is valid and not interrupt us every 15 min, because we did not feel welcomed.

We ordered one of these tapas menus to share, the ribs were delicious! As well as the dates with bacon. These are a good option for a group to try different food. On the other hand, we also ordered a Paella for 2, but we could only eat the fish/sea food in it because the rice was so salty it made us just want to drink water and stop eating. Sangria and Tinto de verano were ok. Service was exceptional, very attentive personal.

We ended our wedding here with our friends and it was wonderful. Unfortunately, the food requests discussed in advance were not communicated well, so we had to look for what to eat again from the emails. But that didn't detract from the good mood and the great service. As expected, tapas and drinks were great again! We felt super comfortable and will definitely come back.

If you visit Munich, don't skip Cordo Bar!!! Great service and food 👍👏

Great food 👍🏼 There are also a few dining tables on the upper floor, which are a little quieter 😊

Super tasty tapas, friendly staff, cool atmosphere. Definitely recommended

I was not at all impressed by the dishes, the tapas dishes that I ordered. The sardines were not fresh, they were falling apart. I probably shouldn't have ordered because I know that sardines are desirable to be eaten in the months of the year that have the letter "r" in the word. The pimientos del padron peppers were soft and that was it, the baby calamari were like the ones you can buy at the supermarket. It wasn't cheap or good at all. The luck of the place is that they have tables outside and since it was very hot in August, everyone was looking for a table outside. It didn't seem to me at all to be related to the Spanish style of tapas.

Very kind team, they were really nice even if we arrived quite late in the evening. We were able to eat some tapas that were really good (the albondigas were really good but the pluma was really delicious). A really nice meal.

In the Cordo Bar you can get authentic tapas at a fair price. I always like to come back. The plates for several people are well coordinated and the quantity is perfect. We had an excellent meal here, the service was again great and the drinks were unusual and very good. I'd love to come back when I'm craving Spanish food again.

Food is not authentic Spanish. Gazpacho was more a spicy tomato soup, tortilla was dry and they serve the wrong sauce. Alioli was tasty, however we never eat it with tortilla, we eat it with patatas bravas. Pimientos de padrón were alright, just no need to serve them with little sticks, you pick then from their tail. Food was not freshly cooked but preheated at the moment. The restaurant is kind of pretty, however it’s full of bullfighting art, and many Spanish people don’t share and like that culture. Overall everything was fine to eat, not a bad place but not good either, and expensive.

Extremely tasty, even if the portions were really a bit small. Very fine for that. You can easily spend 50-60 euros. It's definitely worth it, a wonderful taste experience.

There are ONLY good things to say about this location. We let Noah choose our food as we were a little overwhelmed. From the drinks to the food and the atmosphere, everything was great... Thank you dear Noah...

Nice location, price performance in my opinion manageable (e.g. €8 for 2 meatballs or €11 for 2 small prawns). Portions and quality do not match the price

Food and drinks were ok. Service not very friendly. Price-performance wasn't quite right for us.

A nice restaurant with very nice service. However, in my opinion the price-performance ratio is not quite right. For €10.80 you get just 4 prawns and for €7 you get 4 dates. In general, the portions are very small, so you pay a lot of money not to be really full at the end, which is common with tapas but not to this extent. The spare ribs are very tasty, but unfortunately there is a lot of meat and a dip for the whole meal could have been included. The Cordo Bar is actually a nice place, but the ratio of price to portion size is not quite right.

It was really good for, no one is rushing for you for do the order which is very rare in Munich! Chill staffs, great Spanish style starters and good drinks as well!

We asked if we could sit at another table and the waitress allowed us to do so. A short time later an angry boss came (we assume) and asked who gave us permission, saying we couldn't just follow the instructions. We were ignored for the rest of the evening (probably the punishment for being so cheeky and changing your mind..) and after finally placing our order with the wrong person we were asked to leave. If there were difficulties with communication, the situation could have been handled more nicely.

Disappointing. Owner tries to have bad reviews on Google deleted as defamation, even if they are written in an absolutely factual manner.

We ordered tapas, which tasted very good. The service was friendly and attentive, the atmosphere is nice. Price-performance ratio fair.

Didn't quite meet my expectations.

Unfortunately I didn't like it here.

We just wanted something to drink and chat. The service was courteous and nice. They let us sit next to two drinks for hours. Of course we did another round. Then we got hungry because the others started eating next to us. Everything smells so good, too good! The drinks, Hugos, were the best we had drunk in town. Atmosphere is great! We'll be back soon!

Super tasty tapas. We also had the paella for 2, which tasted very good. Service & ambience were great. There are Augustiner alcohol-free. We recommend!

In my opinion, the food is not as authentic as you would expect for Spanish cuisine. The atmosphere is also rather “un-Spanish”. There are better Spanish restaurants in Munich that are not more expensive.

Great tapas, great Magharitas, staff absolutely amazing with their friendliness and attentiveness. The first Spaniard of my choice. Very cozy! See you soon!

Unfortunately the portions are extremely small for the price.

Cordobar has always been very good. I find the concept very original. Everything, and there are a few different small dishes, tastes excellent. The staff is very friendly and customer oriented, that's how it should be. I'm already looking forward to the next time.

Mmmhhh 😋 these tapas are absolutely excellent

A fantastic experience! Last Wednesday I wanted to watch the football game between Germany and Hungary with seven friends. We originally reserved a table at another restaurant, but that didn't work out. We asked here spontaneously and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They specially changed the reservations of other guests so that all guests had space - both us and the others. The food and drinks came very quickly and we always made sure that our glasses were always filled. The service was first class and extremely accommodating. It was a thoroughly successful visit and we will definitely be happy to come back!

Extremely rude, arrogant and racist hostess. There were many tables free outside and we were told to just come on by. My elderly mother in law sat at one of the free tables and the hostess started shouting at us and giving dirty looks saying we shouldn’t be sitting down without permission. Notwithstanding there were numerous free tables everywhere. We left and will never return. Best to stay away from this place

Happy dinner with my daughter. Good food with authentic taste and good quality. Small recommendation - a Spanish restaurant should have Orujo

Unfortunately this was one of the worst service I have ever had. The portions of the food were really small. The taste was nothing special but I know that for the Germans it tastes perfect. Still not for the Mediterranean people. There was a very loud company and no one asked them to be more quiet. And the food came after 30 minutes even though only 10 tables were busy at that moment. So it is a one star but I would put zero if I could.

Great service, competent staff, delicious tapas, good wine, great atmosphere, really nice bouncer :-) Thank you <3

You can put together as many tapas as you like and there is a large vegetarian selection. I enjoyed all the tapas I ordered and the octopus was also very soft. On warm days you can also sit outside.

Great shop and Manu the best waitress 🫡

Discovered by chance and loved it! Great service in German and English. amazing food and drinks! Very pleasant atmosphere!

...all around cool shop with absolutely professional service.

Very nice tapas bar. I would return

It's a shame, I've been here many times and today the store unfortunately completely disappointed me. We waited over an hour for our food and some of it arrived cold. The food itself still tasted good, but it wasn't the fault of the cook. The plates on the next tables were all uncleared - even after we left the restaurant. The service leaves a lot to be desired.

Cordo is my favorite location in Munich 😀. Bob and Franzi are the best.

I want to put it like this: There is still room for improvement in terms of service and food.

Nice Spanish tapas bar with a good selection of wines and much quieter than some of the bars further down the street.

Great service, good quality food. 👌

Twice here, waited for almost an hour twice - despite reservations. The waitresses are very friendly and the food is delicious, but that's still not possible. Ps: This is a copy of my old review. CordoBar actually took down this review for alleged defamation even though it was true. Unbelievable, I won't accept that as a matter of principle and will upload it again. I was here again two weeks ago and this time it worked relatively well. I might have adjusted the post but that's now an absolute no go... the 4.4 seems to be glossed over if that happens often

Update May 9, 2024 Unfortunately, quality has not improved and the portions are now smaller and more expensive. You now only get 2 small churros for €5.60. Really disappointing. Original review: The tapas are ok. The artichokes, on the other hand, were very well prepared. The churros are typical Spanish churros, but are unfortunately only served with a very small chocolate dipping bowl. You can't get a table here in the evening without a reservation, but that's typical in Munich. The waiting time until placement was moderate at 10 minutes.

Unfortunately not recommended. The food wasn't hot and the chicken was raw inside. The owner is trying to have bad reviews deleted using “slander”. Danger.

Had to delete my previous review. but rewriting it, too pricey food for the quality and quantity, would not recommend

Sangria is more of a bad punch with mineral water! Wine room temperature about 24 degrees recommended 14 degrees on the bottle, bad. Food disaster! Pance and tomato completely soggy, probably made in the morning and served in the evening, scampi has a massive lemon flavor, more like toilet stone. Pattatas bravas, soggy potatoes and not remotely close to a Spanish dish! Croquettas de Jamon are totally over salted and you're worried about the consistency! If you know good Spanish food, don't go there. Recommended the ribs, still water, pimentos. Luckily two dishes were not brought. Food and drinks disastrous!!!!! Service really top! I would hire all of these people immediately! This has nothing to do with Spanish food! Save your money for this meal! Luckily we didn't have any tortillas! Never again!!!

This is a top place in the city center. Food was great, and service was also very friendly. If you choose tapas, it's also very fast and you don't need to wait for too long. You can also sit outside and enjoy the view and nice weather.

Very cool, friendly, customer focused and delicious! Thank you 🥳

A positive thing about our evening in the Cordo Bar was the waitresses, who were very friendly and attentive. There is also a large selection of tapas, including for vegetarians, which is not a given. Unfortunately, everything else was negative. Apart from the fact that it was very loud, I was disappointed in the taste of all the tapas we ordered. All of them were bland and didn't really taste like much. I was also extremely surprised by the portion size combined with the high prices of the tapas. For example, you can get three small shrimps for just under €10 or no less than two meatballs for €8. It's a shame when you're looking forward to a nice evening and spend a lot of money on it and then you get food that tastes so bland and you can't even get enough of it. All in all, the Cordo Bar was unfortunately a disappointing experience that would definitely not be worth going back to. There are significantly better alternatives in Munich, both in terms of price and taste.

We sat in the back, which is much more pleasant and less noisy. Food was good, not the best tapas in town, but still tasty. Staff was friendly and accommodating.

The food was good as always. The service is top. However, table reservations are limited in time. I wouldn't recommend it to a larger group with whom you want to sit for a longer period of time. It's great for eating and moving on.

Food and drinks were ok, the service and atmosphere was great!

Very nice atmosphere, great food, great service (Natalie :) always really good here

As a Spanish I can tell you that the dishes were from everywhere but not from Spain. Low quality food but good service.

It's actually a really nice bar. But there's a lot of noise inside, very overheated on the day of your visit. The reason I won't go to them again is the underground service. I joined a group later and couldn't manage to order a simple beer at the high table. The first waiter forgot it. Even for an hour afterwards, no one came to the table to ask questions. We then got drinks straight from the counter. Empty glasses were then removed after 90 minutes, again without asking for further requests. Very bad, no recommendation.

This ill-fated restaurant with a clever name, which claims to offer typical Spanish tapas, actually offers a poor and confusing mix of dishes that have nothing to do with its original country. The most notable ingredients were conspicuous by their absence, as demonstrated by some ham croquettes that, mysteriously, did not contain the appreciated pork delicacy, and a portion of octopus that turned out not to be such, but from a very inferior cephalopod. These severe negligences, together with the surprising consideration of "almonds" as a tapa, constitute, well analyzed, a serious offense to the Spanish nation and its cuisine. Not satisfied with earning our culinary enmity, they also decided to earn it through customer service. In my particular case, when I ordered a portion of potatoes with Manchego cheese sauce, they unexpectedly brought me a cheese tasting with salad, which I obviously asked to rectify as a matter of urgency. I had to wait twenty minutes for them to serve me the desired potatoes, which, without precedent, were good to eat. Finally, a double violation occurred when it was time to charge for dinner: a young Teutonic waiter had the audacity to proceed with the payment without first producing the payment receipt. The amount, furthermore, was colossal taking into account the quantity of the rations. The impression one gets from this joint is that corruption of conduct is the order of the day and the conclusion would be that the owners of the restaurant know the same about Spain as I do about the Aleutian Islands

Nice place for drinks and tapas

Great time at Spanish tapas restaurant! Super-friendly service, cozy atmosphere, every dish – delicious and authentic. A culinary highlight!
