Locanda Busento Pizzeria in München

Wood-fired pizzas and pinsen (is that what you call them? 🤣), friendly, attentive, and fun service, good value for money. Parking within walking distance. Everything's great.👍🏻

The pizza is average at best, the service is fake-friendly but overwhelmed and rude. The payment was just as unfriendly and rude – definitely not a recommendation. We'll never be back!

We come here often, and the pizzas are truly delicious. They have a nice, high crust. They also serve pinsa. For dessert, the teramisu is recommended. The ambiance is reminiscent of a typical Italian restaurant with wooden tables. The pizza comes from a wood-fired oven. The staff is friendly and attentive, always checking that everything is in order.

The best pizza 🍕 in Munich, perfect dough and very good quality toppings, prices quite low compared to the quality

We ate here repeatedly because we live in the neighborhood. So it was easy to see how the quality has deteriorated over time and is now abysmal. Let me summarize our last three visits. Turkey salad: meat undercooked and old. The waiter refused to cancel the salad. Of four food orders, two pizzas arrived after one hour, and after another half hour, spaghetti for the child and tortellini in cream cheese sauce. The mozzarella on the pizza was rubbery, the salami smelled strongly and was swimming in its own fat. The spaghetti was dried out. The tortellini were cheap, packaged, and the supposed cream cheese sauce was béchamel sauce, pure flour mush, with no trace of cheese. Next up are the (women's) restrooms: the toilet seats were dirty, there was water on the floor, and no toilet paper was provided during any visit. The bottom line is that you only get the cheapest food served here at outrageous prices.

Unfortunately, we were disappointed again! Poor and unfriendly service, and everything was totally disorganized. Unfortunately, we had to wait over 1.5 hours for the pizza, and the food has been better there.

A 1.5-hour wait for two pizzas is definitely too long and not normal in my opinion. The result was one pizza that was okay and one that was burnt on the outside and soggy in the middle. Since we were hungry after the long wait, we didn't complain. When it came to the bill, we asked the waiter about the long wait, but he showed no understanding and immediately became rude. Unfortunately, it wasn't a pleasant experience, neither in terms of food nor service.

Two pizzas took almost two hours on a Friday – and they weren't served yet. "Come on, come on, come on," says the colleague – but nothing's coming. We're going to starve here, while the person who ordered much later than us (also pizza) has already finished eating. What a nerve!! By the way, smoking is allowed – it smells really bad when you sit next to people smoking in the beer garden.

The service was nice at first, but quickly deteriorated. They ripped off my money when I paid. It's a disgrace!

No, unfriendly and disorganized on the phone. Ordering for pickup took 1.5 hours instead of the advertised 30 minutes.

An absolute disappointment – ​​never again! I've rarely been as disappointed as I was here. The food was a disaster – completely carelessly prepared, bland in taste, and far below what I expected. For what I paid, I should have expected significantly better quality and freshness. Instead, I got something that wasn't even remotely worth the price. I had really hoped to enjoy a good meal, but instead, I felt completely ripped off. It wasn't just disappointing – it was annoying. How a place thinks it can serve something like that at these prices is beyond me. I will definitely never eat there again and can only advise anyone not to waste their money on such bad food. For me, it was a one-time, but very educational visit.

I'm honestly shocked. This restaurant used to be my absolute favorite Italian restaurant – fresh, delicious, authentic. Today? A complete disappointment. I had pre-ordered, but still had to wait 15 minutes – and at those prices! Then, when I got home, I was shocked: The pasta was half-raw, tasted like raw egg or just cold milk, and was ice cold. The pizza? Also cold and completely unloved. Charging so much money for a meal like this is simply outrageous. I'm disappointed, angry, and hungry. Whatever happened to this place? Never again.

One of the best pizzas in town. Parking is currently more difficult than usual due to construction work.

One of the best pizzas in Munich!

2020-2024: Terronia in Monaco, ok food, nice service Edit 2025: exaggerated prices, we will not return! Too bad, but raising prices like that is a joke, better to go elsewhere.

The best tasting pizza in Munich!!!! Unfortunately, the toppings have gotten worse in recent years (less on the toppings, the dry crust is wider than before). They can no longer handle the rush: Long wait times for ordering and paying. Which table gets olives or something to nibble on beforehand is arbitrary. Special requests are accepted, but not always implemented (e.g., less cheese or no olives...). Very noisy inside. Conclusion: Highly recommended outside of prime time.

Great pizza, friendly service, cheerful atmosphere

Very good Italian with Neapolitan pizza. Top service, very personable and friendly. And an absolutely original authentic calzone. Grazie mille, continua so

Usually service is very good. However, yesterday, food took more than 1.5 hour to be served.

Very tasty pizza, but the order took 45 minutes after the store opened on a Sunday lunchtime. The only thing that came up was that the oven would take so long - then you should either open it later or simply heat the oven earlier, 45 minutes for a pizza outside of peak times is definitely too long!

The Italian restaurant offers really delicious pizzas from the oven - the taste is absolutely convincing. Unfortunately, the experience on site at the weekend is anything but relaxed. It's extremely busy and the service seems overwhelmed by the rush. We had to wait a full 30 minutes before we even had a chance to pay our bill - despite multiple attempts to draw our attention to the service. The answer was always “same” without anything happening. The high noise level inside made the whole thing even more unsettling. For this reason, I would prefer to order the pizza to take away next time - eating on site is no longer a recommendation for me personally.

The waiters are rude and don't look at you to avoid taking orders. Taste of food is not as good as previous times. Especially, the waiters approaches has to be changed.

Pizza with excellent ingredients Good service Place with a few too many seats In the context we had a good time 👍

Wonderful location, great ambience, great food and service. Definitely coming back.

We were super disappointed today. The service has always been subpar, but today unfortunately the food wasn't good and the waiter was really terrible. We couldn't order any drinks the whole evening because the waiter just didn't come. The scampi on the Spaghetti Frutti di Mare was simply raw but the waiter didn't care. In the end he became unfriendly because we wanted to pay the bill separately, which we couldn't. If you speak to other waiters you will only be told that they are not responsible for our table. The men's toilet was under water which made it completely slippery and was unhygienic. To be honest, the many 5 star reviews really don't make sense to us. The restaurant simply rests on its awards.

Pizza was good but the waiter’s attitude when we are paying was really rude. I asked to pay with card (it was possible higher than 25€) and he didnt respond and waited for cash. Then he was also rushing me when i trying to prepare the money. We were trying to have a chill lunch but he ruined it for sure.

Unfortunately a very bad experience that shocked me today. I find the service terrible now. I also believe that you should treat your guests with respect and not like some kind of child that you don't take seriously. An absolute no-go at a restaurant is when there are two of you and the other person's food is there first and the other person has to wait 10 minutes for ridiculous noodles so that the other person is already halfway through eating. In addition, due to the incredibly good service, even more tips are required (ironically), even though I wanted to tip and he was shocked that it was so little. What kind of behavior is this? How dubious and unprofessional is this?

Very nice atmosphere and lots of accessories that are reminiscent of Italy. The pizzas have a very good dough that is fluffy with whole tomato pieces. Old dishes are rich and taste excellent. The service is typically Italian and very friendly and quick.

A good Italian pizza in Munich. Returning from the castle area, I stopped with my family to eat a pizza, wanting a version as similar to a Neapolitan pizza and the choice fell on Locanda Busento. Cozy place, very popular, even though it was a Monday evening, very Italian and very kind staff. The service was quicker than expected, we ordered: a pizza with rocket, a margherita and a plate of Emilian tagliatelle. All very good, rightly with a slight adherence to local taste.

A tight & crowded place but with outstanding pizzas, worth it. Type: [v] [Eat In] [ ] [Takeaway] [ ] [Delivery] Ambience: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Presentation: 5/5 Value for Money: 5/5 Total Score: 4.8/5

Pizza very tasty. The only thing that can be annoying is if you go there at peak times. It can get very loud inside. I can highly recommend a visit here.

If you're looking for a store where you're not welcome, this is the place for you. Stopping by for a drink is not possible

Very solid Italian restaurant. The stone oven pizza is good.

Best pizza in all of Munich and really authentic

Very nice pizza! Decent tiramisu. Very authentic!

Very tasty food, nice atmosphere, staff very nice, everything was great

Top. Amazing pizzas, amazing service. Since I had a lot of pizzas, a waiter helped me by carrying half to my car.

It was our first visit to this pizzeria, unfortunately we were more than disappointed. It started with the drinks; some of the cola was spilled when a waiter poured it. We ordered six pizzas and the bottom and especially the edge of all of them were half burnt. Additionally, the ham on one of the pizzas was sour and in at least two cases the actual toppings did not match the description on the menu. Pizza Cardinale without basil and Pizza Tesoro (according to the menu with ricotta and spinach) with basil, green asparagus or something similar and a (!) lump of spinach (it was definitely not frozen spinach, but there were probably several layers of leaves on top of each other), which was not spread on the pizza, but was simply left as it is. Otherwise the pizza was okay, but really nothing special. In place of the missing toppings, one of our drinks had extra protein in the form of three fruit flies, when we first mentioned this to a curt waiter he said something incomprehensible, definitely not an apology. Although he kept coming to the table after placing the order to ask again what we had ordered and to bring the food, we had to ask again for the replacement drink without flies. When it finally arrived he apologized, whether for the flies in the glass or whether it took so long, we're not sure. We had to wait forever, certainly more than forty minutes, for the pasta. When paying, the same waiter tried to accept the money in disbelief until he came to a standstill. Only when we said that the amount was on the bill did he accept the money. Please excuse me, but after such a service no one can seriously expect to receive a tip, especially since there is no obligation to do so in Germany. To sum up, the service was a disaster and the food was simply a disappointment, especially since this restaurant has a good reputation and was very busy that evening.

Service was quite slow, but it was also busy. Pizza a bit "doughy", could be a bit lighter and crispier.

Delicious pizza and nice service 👍

Top pizzas. The staff tries to create an Italian flair, which can sometimes seem a bit rude. But it's not meant that way. The only downer: spade...

Good food, unfortunately the service was too cool for this job and was rarely seen. Possibly just an isolated case, we received good service on other visits.

Perfect Italian atmosphere ♥️ Tasty food, very nice service 👌

Yes, very well maintained and rustic.

Yay! But very reluctantly because it is already difficult to get a table.

We spontaneously went here for pizza yesterday. The restaurant was very full, but we were lucky and got a seat. Unfortunately it was very loud, which spoiled the otherwise great ambience a bit. This also meant that everything took a really long time, but the employees were all very friendly. The pizzas were very tasty, both the regular and the gluten-free ones. Because of an older review that the gluten-free pizza with the Schär ready-made crust is, I actually didn't want to order a pizza at first, but was pleasantly surprised. This was definitely not a ready-made base and it tasted very good (for gluten-free dough, you have to be honest). My best gluten-free pizza so far - and probably my new regular pizzeria (at least when I have a lot of time).

the best pizza in town, try the ricotta filled sides, recommened from an italian friend

Very good food. The pizza from the wood-fired oven is sensational. I recommend it with a clear conscience. It's always full here.😘

Nice, courteous staff and the food was as always excellent, absolutely recommendable, always happy to go back

The best hand made pizza I have ever tasted in Germany , will come again.

I can only recommend it, very tasty! Update: Service is unfortunately very rarely nice

Inedible lasagna. Totally burnt. I was there last year and wanted to give the restaurant another chance. Another disappointment. I won't be going back. What a shame

Excellent pizzeria. If you like Neapolitan pizzas, this is the place for you.

Very friendly service. Simply great!

Great location, little selection on the menu, no milk, food was lukewarm, but everyone was very nice, attentive and as such the food was good...I would try it again

If it were just about the pizza, I would have no problem giving the restaurant 5 stars. The wood-fired pizza is awesome. But if you go to a restaurant, even more points count in a rating. Unfortunately, people here are relying heavily on the success of pizza. Ambience: the dining area is so crowded that you barely have room at the table to cut your pizza. Due to the sheer number of people, it is incredibly loud in the restaurant so that normal conversation is simply not possible. What bothered me most was the ignorance of the staff. A sugar shaker fell down - it can happen. But how long it took until this was eliminated is unbelievable. The waiter swept up broken glass and sugar - and then it lay there on the floor for a solid 5 minutes. Several other waiters ran straight through, distributing broken glass and sugar throughout the dining room. Continue eating during the original edition. 2 others stood at the bar area, watching the scene and playing on their cell phones. Waiter 1 comes back, sweeps up some of the shards and sugar and that's the end of the situation! No one else felt called upon to pick up the remaining pieces from the floor. They were still there when we left the restaurant. Service: It's been a long time since I was treated so impatiently and harshly. I wasn't allowed to say anything when ordering, people kept interrupting me and when I asked questions about the size of the drink, the waiter looked at me as if I had lost my temper. Throughout the entire visit, I was given the feeling that I was just an annoying nuisance and not his guest. When the first person in our group of 10 wanted to pay, we all had to pay! It wasn't possible to stay longer because, according to him, he had to collect everything if the billing was split. He wasn't seen again for 10 minutes and then came with 10 receipts, charged each person individually and, as if in spite of themselves, the person who had to pay first because they had to leave last. I don't live far away and have been to the restaurant here several times over the last few years. It has never been the warmest and most friendly Italian restaurant, but recent experience shows that even a great pizza is not enough to retain customers.

The ambience is a bit uncomfortably loud and a bit hectic for my first visit. After I wasn't welcomed straight away, I asked where I could find a place for one person. At my seat I was disappointed by a cold pizza after about an hour of waiting. After I told the waiter that the pizza was cold, I got a warmer pizza after about 5-10 minutes. I can't say exactly whether it was the same. The pizza was definitely warmer on the edge. In the middle there were cold cherry tomatoes hidden under the pharmaceutical ham. At the end we apologized for the cold pizza. The espresso at the end was hot, intense and free.

What a great experience! The waiters are professional and nice. Really the only thing that bugs me is, that they do not have cacio e pepe on the menu :'(

The food and drinks we have enjoyed here so far have been great, both in terms of taste and value for money. What is annoying is the sometimes excessively loud background noise, which makes it impossible to have a conversation, even at your own table. Nevertheless, by far, our "favorite Italians"...in Munich and the surrounding area 😁

I visited the Locanda Busento Pizzeria in Munich and the pizza was really good - the dough was nice and thin and crispy, the ingredients were fresh. Service was friendly but a bit slow as we had a long wait for our order. The atmosphere is cozy, but it could be a bit tidier in some places. Overall a solid experience, but with some room for improvement in terms of service and ambience. However, for a quick, tasty pizza it's definitely worth a visit.

Great location, great service and very good food!

Not words, place, people, food and anyway the whole thing guys, a wonderful thing, go and then you will see with your own eyes, congratulations to all the staff and owners of the busento inn

We're a bit torn here. The pizzas we ate were very tasty. Since my wife suffers from celiac disease and is not allowed to eat gluten, we were very pleased with the gluten-free pizzas on offer. When we specifically asked, we received confirmation that there was no contamination and that the pizza was definitely gluten-free. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case, as we discovered from my wife's reaction a few hours later. If you work with food and earn your money from it, you should know how to deal with allergens, especially in an award-winning restaurant. Conclusion: If you want to eat gluten-free, you can do so without hesitation, but if you suffer from celiac disease you should stay away from it.

>>> Quantity instead of quality <<< EXTREMELY LOUD (no normal conversation possible) OVERcrowded (unfortunately extremely overcrowded guest rooms) EMPLOYEES OVERLOADED, correspondingly stressed, by no means guest-oriented. Despite reservations (Saturday 01/25/25/6 p.m.) there is unfortunately little space unfriendly Commi de Rang only lukewarm mixed fish platter for Unfortunately, at € 30, the price-performance ratio does not correspond. No solution despite my direct criticism... He can't do anything about it, it's the kitchen's fault. etc... :-( I hope I can help you all with this feedback.

One of the best pizzas I have ever eaten in Germany! Highly recommend! Great service/staff. Food is prepared quickly and served fresh from the oven. Great portions and price-point. Large menu with many pizzas to choose from. Some tables are placed closely together which could be annoying if those guest are speaking loudly or have small children or dogs. Will visit again!

You can eat well and at reasonable prices

Venerable, long-established Italian who knows how to do it. Little Italy in Munich

Waiters forget one. They don't want to do the math when they cash in. As a guest you have to reckon with zsm. Don't finish collecting, stop in the middle and run away. Seafood has caused food poisoning.

Probably the best wood fired Italian pizzeria in town! 🍕We have been here countless times and every time the restaurant is well attended - especially by Italians, which speaks for its authenticity. 😊The atmosphere is lively, the food is consistently excellent. 😋We tried almost the entire menu and were never disappointed. Every bite tastes like Italy!🇮🇹 Yes, sometimes you have to wait a little longer for your food 😅 but it's definitely worth it. Paired with good wine, served by friendly hosts – what more could you want? Absolute recommendation for anyone who wants to enjoy real Italian flair!😁😁😁

An absolute disgrace!! I called the restaurant on Tuesday to make a reservation for Friday evening. I was told on the phone that I should just come at 9 p.m. because there is 100% a table available for two people. After asking 5 times whether he was sure because it was Valentine's Day I would prefer if he reserved a table for me, he said no every time because it wasn't necessary! When we got there on Friday at 9 p.m., we were greeted by a long line in front of the door. After consulting with many people waiting, many people made reservations here. After half an hour of waiting in the cold without much movement, we left in a huff! That doesn't work at all. Places are guaranteed here that are not available in order to probably compensate for possible cancellations etc. Can't say anything about the food and ambience. We definitely won't want to make a reservation again after a number like that!

Best Italian outside of Italy and maybe within 😉

One of the top Italian restaurants in Munich. The wood-fired pizza is perfectly crispy and the toppings are also of top quality and fresh, original Italian. Everything tastes exceptionally good there, from salad to bread to beer and wine. And at normal prices. I have Italian gastronomy experience and a bit of knowledge myself. I can only warmly recommend the locanda.

Very good pizza. Some say it's the best in Munich.

Best wood fired pizza. Please reserve in advance.

Lively Italian restaurant with a wide range of Italian dishes. Sometimes you get lost in the hustle and bustle of what's going on when serving, but not for long and then things go all the quicker. It's a pleasure.

Good food. It’s too crowded at weekends. even when you have reserved a table, you have to wait to be seated.

The head waiter and some of the other waiters are amateurish, arrogant, unfriendly and forget that they have guests who are there for pleasure and enjoyment and are paying! Disorganized, arrogant and inconsiderate! Pizza is very good, but there are several pizzerias with good wood-fired pizza! Furthermore, shift reservations are absurd!

Noisy, crowded but really good pizzas. Corona addendum: there is no better pizza dough in Munich, but my Napoli today was a contribution to saving the seas and the other day the calzone was mainly warm ricotta, unfortunately the toppings were saved. But the high price remains

Best pizza in town. We keep coming back💕

Busento's pizzas are CRAZY good! Everything was great and super good prices Only it would be nicer if the location were renovated a bit.

I recently picked up a takeaway pizza here and what can I say?! Incredibly delicious and to put in! It was quick and easy to pre-order by phone. Price was good and it was still very hot. I'd love to come back when I'm nearby and hungry! PS: My current company even had a Christmas party here a few years ago!

I could say , the best pizza in München. But you need to be patient to wait. Good and well prepared first mains. The appetisers are really small. Overall is a nice place.

One of our favorite pizzas in Munich! The gluten-free version is also highly recommended.

A wonderful blend of Mediterranean products; amazing place.

Typical Italian restaurant. Service is very attentive and quick. Pizza from the wood oven, nice and crispy, I personally liked it too much dough. Carbonara with cream is not carbonara. Very loud in the next room and having a conversation is difficult. There are a few parking spaces in the courtyard and opposite at the forest cemetery. Price performance normal for Munich

While a little louder due to the big hall, still a very nice ambience, and a conversation of 4 people was not a problem. Fantastic Duette pizza. (Half calzone, half pizza, with different topics each)

Incredibly bad atmosphere! Very unfriendly waiters, and the EC card machine is supposedly broken... If you look at the sign, this definitely hasn't happened recently! The food comes to a table 30 minutes apart, without an apology or anything. Never again!

Locanda is always worth a visit because the pizza is simply awesome.

The food is very nice, proper Italian, with hand made tasty pizzas.

An excellent compromise between quality and price. This pizzeria/restaurant offers a wide range of Italian dishes with particular attention to the quality of the pizza and its ingredients. If you are in Munich I recommend this place for an evening with friends or family.

A surprisingly good pizza for Munich standards! You didn't have to wait too long for the food either. Definitely worth it.

Excellent food and very good service

Pizza is okay but definitely nothing special

That's how pizza works 🍕 👌🏻 Grazie mille 🙏🏼

Friday 3 January 2025 we went with my wife and son to eat pizza on New Year's Eve! I must say with all sincerity that Locanda Busento's pizza has nothing to envy of the famous Sorbillo pizza in Naples, which I have eaten several times. The pizza at Locanda Busento is an exceptional pizza. Never eaten such good pizza in Germany, but not even in Italy, except in Naples!!! I can't wait to go back! Hopefully next week! A pizza this good and so easily digestible is a rarity!!! Compliments to Chefs Andrea and Franco Iaquinta and all the staff of course. Michele Barretta

The food is always very good, but the service is not always good.

The pinsa was okay, minestrone was terrible... and tasted like nothing... vegetable broth with frozen vegetables...

Been there twice. Ordered the garlic noodles twice. The first time in the evening it was the best noodles I've ever had. The second time at lunchtime it was just good noodles. I think the difference was that with the pasta when I visited at lunchtime, the cherry tomatoes were different (cooked longer) and the olive oil wasn't mixed with the pasta water. The pizza at lunchtime was very good! The olive oil with a little pasta water was a real hit that evening. Next time I'll go back for noodles in the evening.

I've now taken two weeks to find the right words for my review and hope it does justice to my experience and the restaurant. First of all, I and we will continue to enjoy food from Locando in the future, but only for take-away. Locanda is a great restaurant when it comes to good food at reasonable prices and the pizzas are some of the best in town (as far as we're concerned). Unfortunately, the service has been lacking for many years. The staff is super nice and trained, you can tell. Unfortunately, my loved one and I had to realize once again, first on the birthday, now on the anniversary, that if you don't show up as a group of more than four people, you're on lost ground. Even with a reservation, the two of us had to wait 30 minutes for our table each time. We were always served at the table after about 25 minutes and there were problems every time. Either the starter was overlooked, the main course was only brought to the table after 60 minutes - while the group arrived 10 minutes after us had already finished eating or we asked - or the wrong dessert was packed to take away (which was... only noticed at home). We've tried several times now, but unfortunately eating out doesn't work for us there. Too bad.

Waiters arrogant and stressed. But okay, it was Christmas and overcrowded. But: charge 145 euros for anti pasti, 2 plates? The waiter then quickly cashed in and left. The pizza is okay, could be crispier. It would be a shame if it weren't for the anti pasti: recommendation. But that leaves a bitter aftertaste. 40 euros for the two plates would be expensive but still within reason. But 145?
