Das Maria in München

Always delicious and a nice atmosphere! Very friendly staff. Only the prices are a bit high. Personally a bit too high for the quantities and in general. Even if everything has somehow become more expensive, which I understand. But for 3 slices of eggplant in a sauce (admittedly very tasty) they charge €17. Or €6 for the bread we requested (even if it was a bread basket)… we ended up with €100 for 2 people (2 small mezzes, 2 slightly larger ones) and were moderately full. Including two small Lemon Spritz. I think €100 is too much for that

Everything was great, food, atmosphere, and especially the super nice, thoughtful waiter Benno 🤩 thank you for the good time, we'll definitely be back!!!

Actually a great shop, with fancy middle east food. Delicious shashuka. Unfortunately there are no high chairs, so I can't really recommend it with children.

We had breakfast. Very tasty oriental food. Have been there many times and will be happy to come again.

A bit tight and you have to wait a long time to be informed about a place. But it tastes great. We had Maria on the Bosphorus and Maria in Tel Aviv. (The latter was a shakshuka, which is why “Tel Aviv” is the wrong name, as the dish is primarily of Maghreb origin and has only been Israeli since the 1950s. Please do not support the theft or falsification of history.)

Price/performance for a menu of €49.90 is not appropriate

Food great. Drinks great. Service super great. Absolutely recommended.

Oriental breakfast with a subtle vegetarian selection. Coffee and hot drinks were great! Somewhat small portions for the price. Good taste. Unfortunately very tight. You don't really sit comfortably.

We felt comfortable, perfect evening. Gladly a second time.

Yes, unfortunately people are resting on old laurels here when there are complaints about stone in the muesli not being edible. The rotten old pieces of fruit are so big that you can't even put them in your mouth and if you complain, you'll still be charged the overpriced price of €10.90 for the muesli. The guest doesn't play a role here at all and doesn't matter, he's just left out This café is definitely no longer recommended, the neighboring café 10 cm away is definitely not recommended

Very tasty food and drinks, service is friendly but not always quick. A little more expensive in price.

I'm not even sure where to start. I've known Maria for breakfast for five years and I went here every time I visited Munich. It's so incredibly good. This time we were there for the first time in the evening - and wow! I am completely thrilled. We had the small Mezze Maria Chicken, as well as the two large Mezze Chicken Stew and Lamb Pilaf. The taste is phenomenal and I have never tasted anything like it. Rounded off by the great service and the great atmosphere. We'll meet Again! Stay as you are - everything turned out great.

Well prepared food and great service ❤️ It's best to reserve a small restaurant in advance

Super nice store with very friendly staff that brings a personal touch to the store. The tables are great for groups of up to 5 people. We had a good time and were able to get to know new culinary things. Gladly again!

The breakfast was delicious and the service was initially friendly. We then had a second (confirmed) reservation and asked whether we could keep our table or have to change. The service staff then became cool, they didn't accept "double bookings", the reservation for 12 p.m. was canceled online at 11:49 and we were very firmly asked to pay, the others (?) would already be waiting. With every understanding for other guests, if a reservation is made, it is either binding or not. You ruined our day, our mood was in the basement, we downed the second order of drinks (which was still possible at a quarter to twelve...) and left.

The special breakfast. The Maria alone is worth a trip to Munich. Everything is delicious and the service is great.

Super friendly staff and a wonderful atmosphere. We were treated with so much love and care and the food was very good! Thank you very much and we would love to come back! P.s. Thanks for the tip about the date cream, it is phenomenal and we can only recommend it to everyone!

For everyone who would like to experience a slightly different breakfast!

The local itself is really beautifully designed, the service was great, everyone was really nice! The food was tasty, but unfortunately not special enough for the relatively high price. The wine list is huge, but unfortunately the food selection is not that big.

Very delicious food with generous portions. Value for money and such lovely staff!

The food was very tasty. Well tolerated (low fat). The service is super friendly. Recommended for vegetarians, vegans and omnivores.

We had such a delicious breakfast today. Breakfast for 2 is an oriental dream!!!

Nice and flexible service, the food is clearly too expensive for the portion size. Very bright light, cramped and no music. I used to love coming to you before you changed your card, but now that's it...

We were here for brunch - the food was great, but there were very long waiting times for our food in the outdoor area, up to an hour.

Great spot for brunch. The food was great and totally flavorful. ☺️ Staff was very friendly and accommodating - they had fun at work ☺️

Very tasty, varied and rich breakfast (Maria in Love) Very friendly service, nice atmosphere

Very tasty food. Weevice was ok. Unfortunately, the price-performance ratio for the menu for 4 people wasn't right for us (€50 per person). We didn't get enough - 2 couples.

The mezze was quite good, but too expensive for what you got. We found the concept of only one mezze for the entire table to be less successful, as some were vegetarian/vegan and others would have liked to eat meat. Unfortunately, the stools are super uncomfortable and we couldn't eat any more dessert because the reservations were strictly timed and we were asked to leave after exactly 2 hours. But the staff was quite nice.

Mega tasty and great oriental restaurant!! You definitely have to try it!

For me personally, hummus had too much tahini, but my companion enjoyed it. Shakshuka had too many ingredients for both of us, knowing it as a rather simple tomato-based dish, but it was still delicious. The position of the urinals is extremely unfavorable. Overall, the ambience could be even warmer. It was tasty and good but not as special as we thought based on the recommendations.

We were there for the first time today. The menu offers a super interesting and great selection. The service was excellent. It was very busy and yet they paid attention to and served everyone. The food was super tasty. We are already looking forward to the next time. Thanks :)

Delicious food, good coffee, nice atmosphere and top service! Thank you very much, gladly again. Requests were taken into account and there are vegan options.

You feel very comfortable. Very nice, personable staff :) were very enthusiastic about the food, it looked really nicely prepared and tasted really good! Not exactly cheap, but would still come again and again

Splendid!!! A pleasure. I ate shakshouka today. It was great. I'll be back. Great service, great food, great restaurant. Gladly again. Highly recommended!!!

Large choice of coffee sorts: oriental and Italian. Waited 10 min to get a table. Friendly but so slow service and they got confused very easily with drinks order and later with dishes order. Nice sun-oriented sitting spots for brunch hours outside. I ordered a Shakshuka with lamb and beef-based merguez. It was with a lot of coriander spice and yummy delicious runny yolk eggs. They brought me the without merguez version but charged me for the merguez version. The Shakshuka is interesting in it’s difference from the Tunisian 3ejja shakshuka sort.

Yes, if you like that kind of cuisine. Service is very quick and the kitchen is also clear. This was my first time eating here so the food is new to me but I think it's a great option for people who like it.

Great food and friendly service!

Exceptional and totally delicious 😍🥰

Kind of a cool place with a special menu and flair. Unfortunately, the food itself varies greatly in quality. But it's presented really cool.

Visit last Saturday noon. What can I say.... the food is decent, although the price remains high (but we are in Munich). On the other hand, the service... what a joke. The tall, blond young man who served us was disrespectful beyond measure! Upon arrival, even though we have a reservation, he looks down on us with a little thought like "yes, we're finally allowing you to be here, be happy" -> uh.... okay. Then we order (after 25 minutes of waiting). 45 minutes later still nothing on the table, so we ask the question. And rather than apologizing and going to find out, we took a shot like: "yeah you really don't know Das Maria: we're hyped and it's normal to wait, so stop complaining ". Bha.... 1 hour between sitting down and having something to eat, even among the stars, we don't wait that long: we'll have to learn to come back to earth. Strangely, when we asked the lady, a little older, she went straight inside to ask and we were served in 10 minutes... Anyway, in quick conclusion: food ok, everything else needs to be reviewed/discarded; and clearly I wouldn't set foot there again! EDIT: following the owner's response: demonstration of exactly what I'm saying: never question yourself, and come and put your ego in the middle of the conversation. Unfortunately for him, I was with two German friends, so no communication problems to report... In short... I'm even going to lower my rating in the end!

Super tasty food, good portions; when it is full, the noise level is correspondingly high; Staff are super nice! Toilet is very narrow and dark.

The restaurant is not suitable for families. Price performance is underground. A tasteless tarte flambée with wafer-thin slices of beef costs around €18. For a very small portion of starter with hummus, spoiled cauliflower etc. €16 is charged. The restaurant doesn't know what Arabic/Oriental cuisine is. We have rarely eaten as badly as we did here. Rest assured that we only consume Demeter/Organic products, which is something you definitely don't have. At the same time, be assured that their products are inferior and tasteless, that is because their products are not organic. Organic products are usually full of flavor, just not with them. Apart from that, as already written above, they have no idea what oriental cuisine tastes like. I'm welcome to come by and show me their "organic" products. And I help you buy the very good quality products and I'm happy to show you what oriental cuisine should taste like.

Very, very tasty but also relatively expensive

Very good Levantine and oriental inspired dishes. Tasty and friendly! Unfortunately, the noise level is very high, which detracts points from the great experience. But I would like to come back to enjoy the excellent food.

Very tasty food and good service, but the prices are quite high for the portion sizes. Most of the main courses don't come with a side dish, which I find a bit unreasonable considering the prices.

The three of us shared four different dishes (feta, eggplant, hummus and falafel) and it was incredibly tasty 😍 It is definitely recommended to make a reservation, we were lucky to get a table but some of us didn't

The quality of the food has drastically deteriorated - there are no longer any real main courses and only meze. We had the challah which, at 8 euros, tasted no better than a browned brioche with a long hair baked into it. The 4 falafels for 11 euros were burnt and carelessly served on a tahini pasta. The “large” eggplant mezze - tasted ok, but at 17.90 (no side dishes etc) it wasn't really worth the money either. Overall, neither the quantity nor the quality are right for the high price. It was our last visit here...

There were six of us there for dinner. Cocktails and food were ok. Unfortunately, the price-performance ratio wasn't right at all. A simple hummus counts as the main course (it was tasty but nothing special). You need a few meze to fill you up and it gets expensive. The chairs outside are metal and not very comfortable

Incredibly GREAT!! I will come back again and again! The service, super nice and friendly The food was a DREAM! Everything just fits

Didn't get the food until after 60 minutes. Except for a raw flatbread, it was very tasty. The quantity was a bit small for the price.

Quiet yet centrally located restaurant. We were there in the afternoon and could still choose between breakfast and hearty dishes. We all really enjoyed the food. Portions were large, so value for money was right. The staff was also very friendly. We'd love to come back!

The breakfast was really great, 5 different dishes and everything was delicious! Great for gluten free! Just: if you don't like coriander, be careful, there's coriander on almost everything and that's not on the menu 😉

Went there for the first time yesterday and it certainly wouldn't be the last time! From the very good service to the diverse selection of dishes (both large sweet and salty selection) to the convincing taste and the beautiful, authentic presentation of the dishes, everything was right here! A small point of criticism for me was the coffee, which wasn't 100% to my taste. Otherwise a convincing visit!

We were there early in the evening. The food is excellent, special starters. We haven't eaten something so delicious in a long time. For me, absolute class. Unique! The waitress, a young man, was very friendly and accommodating. I can only recommend.

The food at Maria is still very tasty. Unfortunately, meals are now only offered to share in the evenings instead of main courses. I think the concept itself is good. However, the price-performance ratio is not right here at all!!! Unfortunately, the portion sizes do not reflect the high prices in any way. The menu is priced in the main course category, but you are served portions that won't fill you up. About 3 mezes per person are recommended to fill you up. And then at the end of the evening paying €60 for 3 small meze and a drink is just too much for me, even in Munich. Unfortunately I wasn't full either.

The food was great, I would give it 5 stars for that alone. To drink I had the pomegranate lemonade, my friends had the rose lemonade. Unfortunately, both only tasted like sugary water. What didn't work at all was the service. Uninterested in the guests, we had to wait until we could order (we were allowed to organize the tickets ourselves beforehand). The waitress herself was so motionless that she dropped an order completely under the table. There has to be a better way.

Not Celiac friendly! We researched gluten-free options by phone in advance and were assured that they offer enough gluten-free options. They even bake their own gluten-free bread! Once there, we pointed out my celiac disease to the friendly waitress and had every single mezze we ordered checked with the kitchen. However, there was no demand there and I was finally served a dish with wheat with the words "it's gluten-free". As a result, the evening and the next two weeks were over. It is understandable that due to the pressure and stress in the kitchen, mishaps can quickly happen. However, the kitchen staff should be aware of their responsibility towards guests with food intolerances. Since they even offer homemade gluten-free bread, you should expect that more guests with celiac disease will want to enjoy their dishes. Aside from the gluten misfortune, the food was excellent and the service was very friendly and accommodating. Definitely worth a visit for all mere mortals. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I cannot recommend this restaurant for people who depend on reliable cuisine.

Prices far too expensive, small portions. You go out hungry. With 4 mezzes you are directly at 50€. Service a bit agitated and hectic.

This was our third time here and the overall package is simply fantastic! Totally delicious food, I almost want to say excellent 🤌🏻, the friendliest and most attentive staff and a great atmosphere, whether for breakfast/brunch or dinner. An absolute must!!

The Maria in Munich is a real gem! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, the food is excellent. We were particularly impressed by the creative dishes and the fresh ingredients. The service is attentive and friendly. A must for anyone who appreciates good food in Munich. We will be back definitely!

A few months ago I was at Maria and everything was great. I've been going there again in my thoughts for the last few days. Unfortunately it was a total disaster... We were ignored and often ignored by the waitress. Our food didn't arrive at the same time, which puts the concept of sharing into question... We also had to ask about the side dishes several times... Which, to be fair, were on the house. But the good atmosphere was already over…. In the end, of course, we asked the waitress about it, then the reason was that there was a lot going on at once and the kitchen couldn't keep up. I could also understand that there could be a lot going on, but you have to communicate that! Especially tables that arrived after us received their food quicker. However, the best statement came at the end: “we had to take care of the guests with the reservation first” It's a shame guys... as your food is really delicious.

I've been there several times now and every single time it's been good. The map also changes from time to time. So there's always something new to try. Everything is freshly prepared and the service is also very friendly and polite. We got a seat outside without a reservation. If you want to be on the safe side, you should reserve a place online.

We reserved a table very spontaneously and were there half an hour early - we were allowed to sit down and order, and shortly before the food came we were even able to sit outside, the friendly gentleman thought especially of us! The service was great, very attentive, not too intrusive, just perfect. The food was outstanding, a dream - we shared it with Maria In Love, it's really a lot of food for two people and all of it tastes unique. I would love to know how this nutty cocoa sauce is made, I would love to know how to make this nutty cocoa sauce.

Prices now ridiculous. 18€ for an eggplant with some tomato sauce, 17€ for hummus with some bread and pickled vegetables. It used to be great, the food is still delicious but nothing special anymore. Price-performance is no longer appropriate

The food was simply wonderful. Great Shakshuka

The portions are a bit small but the food was excellent. So was the service. Will definitely come again

Really great menu with special dishes and completely different dishes than you can find anywhere else. The choice between sweet and salty dishes and also between classics and changing dishes is also great. The only thing that's a shame is that you're very restricted here with children, there's only enough space for strollers outside and there's no changing facilities...

What more could you want, good food and everything fresh. Prices are reasonable for the quantity and quality. But you should have a reservation. Had a great breakfast, there was plenty of choice for vegetarians and non-vegetarians. I'd love to come back!

We felt very welcomed as foreigners, in contrast to many other places in Munich

The rose spritz is perfect. Not to sweet and just delicious while you wait for your food. Which is the only downside to the place - the not so short weight before your food arrives. But good things come to those who wait, and Das Maria is definitely that. The food is so so so good, especially Maria’s Medley where you get a taste for everything.

Very nice cafe with oriental flair and food offerings

For sure a place with character! Friendly service!

Great service and such delicious and special breakfast! The team is super nice and accommodating!

Very good food 👍 just great and the price is right, really good

There were six of us there for dinner. The positive first: service very good, ambience very good, food very tasty. Unfortunately, far too little, even for a single person. A mini meat skewer for 27 euros is expensive even for Munich. Waiting times too long between dishes. Therefore unfortunately only three stars. To your answer: if it is actually organic, it would have to be listed where you get your meat and food from. That's not the case here... and even then such prices would not be justified for such quantities. I'm sorry, but it remains three stars. The fact that you want to profit from the review doesn't make things any better.

Extremely uncomfortable seats...upholstery has been missing for over 2 years. Eating well because something different...but if you can't sit... Edit: haha ​​“each chair has its own cushion”…seriously? The 99 cent pillows the size of a beer mat?! Do you mean these? haha

The food is OK. There are many brunch options. Unfortunately, I personally didn't like the sourdough bread. It's a shame when the waiters see you and you're obviously waiting for a reserved table and aren't greeted. Seems like this situation is being deliberately ignored because the tables are still occupied…. There are certainly other friendlier solutions for this! It's very, very loud indoors and quite tiring to carry on a conversation. With the 2 hour rule for reservations you feel very rushed and under pressure, which I personally don't find pleasant for a leisurely brunch day.

Unfortunately not a pleasant experience. Preparation of brunch approx 45 minutes. Coffee also not my taste. I understand the rush hour thing but it’s not the only place I have visited during rush hour. Also the receipt I received was wrong and I had to pay more. I realised lot later after I left the place and did not bother to go back. That’s my responsibility to double check the receipt I know but still not something I am used to happen regularly.

All the food was delicious. The kebab was streaky. For those who like to chew.

Certainly my favorite restaurant in Munich. To come early.

We were here for brunch at the weekend and felt very comfortable. Were warmly welcomed and had a nice table outside. I find it very pleasant that there is enough space between the tables and that everything is not so close together. The food was excellent, you can tell the ingredients are of high quality. Portions are sufficient, price performance is right. The many small details that conjure up the oriental feeling are beautiful :) from the beautiful interior design to the ornate glasses.

We felt very full, it took a little over an hour from order to delivery, food tasted very good, we'll be back

For me the best oriental restaurant in Munich... Especially Maria's shawarma is so delicious

Big prices, small portions. Unfortunately it is no longer particularly recommended. In the evenings, without a terrace, it was very loud in the interior, entertainment was hardly possible. Staff, especially the boss, still have a long way to go towards the service concept.

Have been there for breakfast before, it's very good. This time for dinner, we were less convinced. First of all, negatively, reservations for indoors are not moved outside when the weather is nice. If I reserve for Mother's Day four weeks in advance, I can't predict the weather. The dinner tasted good to very good depending on the dish, but the price was extremely high, main courses for 25€, which don't nearly fill you up, are too expensive to fill you up, at least 40€ per person just for the food. What was really negative, however, was the waiting time, the restaurant was about 60% full, but the waiting time was still extremely long, sometimes 20 minutes between dishes, and for 9 dishes it was about 2.5 hours between the first and last. What's ironic here is that the waiting time for the lamb kebab is 15 minutes, but we waited about 2 hours. The concept simply doesn't work or the kitchen is either understaffed or too small. Conclusion: I would love to have breakfast again, but not dinner.

Very atmospheric ambience, attentive service and fantastic food. The smoked eggplant in particular is a poem. We always like to come back!

After 50 minutes of waiting (!) - after ordering - the really delicious food and the always very attentive and friendly staff made up for it!! Highly recommended and always happy!!

Another, in my opinion, completely overrated restaurant in Munich. Food is just average, super long waiting times, service seems rushed. If it takes 45 minutes to bring a mint tea and a light beer, you as a customer actually already know.

Exotic oriental cuisine. Just something different. Good service.

Everything just fits here! We were warmly welcomed and felt right at home in the unique ambience of Das Maria. We were guided through the large selection with great recommendations and the food was really a pleasure - every dish was a highlight! The team was very attentive and friendly and not intrusive in the least - top service! A clear recommendation for anyone who wants to get to know new tastes and wants a wonderful dining experience. With this expectation we were by no means disappointed at Das Maria. 😊

The food was good, but sitting at the old oriental tables in the entrance area was uncomfortable.

I haven't experienced such bad service in a long time. Rude, rude and incompetent all in one. I don't even want to start with the food, I don't understand what that has to do with Moroccan cuisine, just because you offer hummus you shouldn't call it Moroccan cuisine + the supposed Moroccan mint tea was simply hot water with 2/3 peppermint leaves -> who ( Authentic) If you want to eat Moroccan food, you've come to absolutely the wrong place and if you want sensible food, you've come to the wrong place too. In the picture you can see what a gluten-free "flatbread" should be, it is simply a fried something that is in oil. Inedible.

Great Middle-Eastern style brunch restaurant. It is quite popular, but we got quite lucky and got a place inside. The menu was very interesting including hummus, baba ghanoush and skakshukas. The dishes, like plates and cups, were also middle-eatern style which made the experience even better. The stuff was really friendly and helped with a choice that would suit our tastes.

I really liked it here. The staff was very friendly and attentive. There is a good selection of breakfast options. When the weather was good, we were able to enjoy the sun outside. My breakfast platter was very tasty. In terms of price it is acceptable. Reservation is recommended.

Das Maria has a great and extensive middle east menu for brunch lovers - you will need a reservation on the weekend. Unfortunately, the restaurant does offer any seat options for babies/children, and the order took ~ one hour waiting time.

MARIA'S HAPPY Z'ATAR CHICKEN was to die for. Delicious. However, the service left more than to be desired - unfriendly and dismissive. A real shame.

Yes It has a great atmosphere, fancy and cozy place but waiting almost 1 hour for breakfast and after this getting an average food... it was not a good experience for us. For toddler there is nothing to eat really. We won’t come again.

Amazing place and great food! Feels so nice to have a spot where they serve breakfast/ brunch even after 14uhr. Hangover or not, I take the brunch even at 15uhr. The terrace is very well spotted in a sunny corner and, if it’s too hot for you, the staff will gladly open a sunshade for you. Live the Moroccan vibes and taste, not a wannabe place but a perfect effort of mixing cultures.

What a wonderful evening. Many thanks especially to Christoph and Siso. Cozy atmosphere, warm service and delicious wines. Now again!

The Maria would be a very good restaurant in and of itself, because the atmosphere, the presentation of the food on beautiful metal plates and bowls and the nice (if not very attentive) service create a very good basis. However, for me, the most important component when visiting a restaurant is the food, and with the best will in the world I can't say that Das Maria would have satisfied me. On the one hand, the prices are high, but on the other hand, the dishes could have used a grain or two more of salt or seasoning. Especially in oriental cuisine you can choose from such a wide range of flavors that it is incomprehensible if none of them can be found in the food. The roasted cauliflower was not nicely browned (ergo roasted), but just cooked until pale and soft. Only the sucuk added some flavor to our omelet. There was not even a hint of cumin in any bite (I was able to try it in others too). The zucchini and plum cake was juicy and fresh, but again just boring. Maybe that's my personal preference, but when I go to a restaurant like this, I expect an intense taste experience, not a Germanized everything-tastes-the-same. The portion size wasn't satisfactory either, because the cauliflower shawarma, which felt like it consisted of 40% dressing-free salad, wouldn't have filled me up even if it had been made three times. ~14 € (I'm not entirely sure anymore) is just way too much for that. At least the food was expertly prepared and beautifully fresh. Overall, I think it's a real shame because if the food had been spicier (and more), Das Maria would have immediately become one of my favorite restaurants in Munich.
