Max Emanuel Brauerei - Wirtshaus und Biergarten in München

This restaurant has one of the best roast pork I've ever eaten—as an Upper Bavarian. The service is excellent! And I always enjoy going there.

Really nice. The style in the inside is debatable, but the outside is great.

So the food was good and the service simply charming but 27,80€ (!!) for a Kaiserschmarrn, are you still quite crispy 🤣

As always, a pleasure. Greetings from Vienna A

We went for a Reindlessen after the civil wedding and were extremely happy with the communication beforehand, the food, and the service. Thank you so much!

Nice option if you want a beergarden close by, but the food and service are not the best.

A very nice, quiet outdoor dining area in the city center. That's quite rare! The renovation has done MaxE a world of good, even if it no longer seems so typical. The cuisine still has potential to gain its own character for a traditional Bavarian inn.

Great beer garden. Restaurant doesn't offer the right value for money.

The best Viennese veal schnitzel I've ever eaten, WOW. The restaurant is a dream, not exactly cheap, but absolutely worth it. The staff are fully committed and everyone is very friendly. From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave, everything was top-notch. I felt completely at home and can only recommend it!

At the end, I hugged the chef because it was the most delicious Wiener schnitzel I've ever eaten. Greetings from Cologne!

Barely 4 stars, a bit too expensive for the performance. Still, I'd recommend it 👍🏼

A wonderful self-service beer garden with a waiter service area right next door, featuring a great menu and a very knowledgeable drinks list. The prices are absolutely reasonable. The food is excellent. We went there twice on Mondays with a few friends. The friendly, competent service from Ruben and the pleasant, always up-to-date Amelie is particularly enjoyable and makes you feel very welcome. Highly recommended!

The Obazda (pretzel) was plentiful and delicious, easily enough for four pretzels. The atmosphere was great, too. But I think it's way too expensive for a beer garden. In Munich, you can sometimes get a light beer for €5 at a pub, and for €5.80 at a beer garden. You can also get a schnitzel or a fried schnitzel in a brioche for €16.

It is a fancy bavarian restaurant with good food and nice service

They've lost touch with reality here. €15.50 for a schnitzel roll with nothing on it but schnitzel and iceberg lettuce. With the beer garden half full, I had dishwasher-hot glasses all evening. My last half-pint was scalding hot. When I asked if they couldn't serve warm beer, I was recommended an iced pitcher, which costs an additional 50 cents. That's over €6 to get a drinkable beer. Disaster

Nice beer garden, exorbitant prices (starter 15-20€, side salad 7€, beer >6€), standard food.

This is what a pub should be like. It's a bit more upscale, with super friendly staff and fantastic food. Modern decor, a lovely terrace with a beer garden behind it – highly recommended. We'll definitely be back on our next visit to Munich!

I let myself be persuaded to visit (restaurants aren't really my thing) and was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is modern and tastefully decorated, the food is excellent, and our waitress was incredibly friendly and attentive. I will definitely be back :)

Great! Especially the beer in the ice glass!

We were there for our department's summer party. The terrace was reserved for us. The two (?) women who had to put up with us were quick to respond, and requests (like extra ice cubes in the bucket) or new drinks were promptly fulfilled. The food (fried chicken, Kasspatzn, roast pork (that crust!!!), and dumpling variations) took up a lot of space, but it was more than enough for our table of eight people. Otherwise, we asked the others at the neighboring tables for more. And it was absolutely delicious! The appetizer and dessert couldn't quite keep up. Of course, the noise from the beer garden itself reached us at a decent volume, but we probably weren't much quieter either. I can't comment on the price, since the boss invited us.

Absolutely fabulous! A warm welcome, excellent coordination. The table reservation went flawlessly. The service is fast, incredibly friendly, and accommodating; the server covered more ground in an hour than I did in a day and then arrived at the table beaming. The meal was a warm embrace of Bavarian cuisine. Generous portions, tasted like grandma's food, and evoked the same feeling. Fantastic!

There's a great beer garden with a self-service bar and food stand, perfect for relaxing after a long day! 🌳🍺 You can also sit and eat inside the inn or on the terrace. The service is very friendly and the food is excellent. If you're feeling a little peckish, we recommend the homemade Obazda (traditional German sausage) with homemade sourdough bread! 🤤 We'll definitely be back!

Wonderful atmosphere, super friendly staff, great food, cozy!

We just wanted to check if the garden area was suitable before deciding to sit down. However, the lady at the entrance insisted on setting the table and responded quite rudely, almost shutting me down with anger when I tried to ask to take a quick look. If you're paying €30 for a dessert, I think a more respectful attitude would be expected. But others were quite nice, thank you except her.

A beautifully decorated restaurant, but the menu was too expensive for my taste. For the hefty price, I would have preferred a third cheese dumpling on the salad. The taste was good, but the salad dressing could be better.

The food was good and tasty. The service was very distant and cool, which I find inappropriate for a Bavarian pub/beer garden. Otherwise, everything was okay.

A very modern, stylish restaurant with a lovely ambiance. Very friendly and prompt service. The menu isn't extensive, but the selection is still good. Large portions, with the Kaiserschmarren being a highlight. A great drinks menu and excellent aperitifs (Spritz) that go beyond the classic Aperol. A very nice outdoor seating area.

Unfortunately, due to the weather, we couldn't sit in the beer garden. But it was very cozy inside! The food was perfect and the service very friendly. We'd love to come back on our next visit to Munich. Best wishes from the true north, the Bay of Lübeck 😁

Great place for a cute date or a big group of friends. Has both indoor seating and a beer garden. Great food and drinks!

Very nice restaurant, very friendly service and a Kaiserschmarren to melt in your mouth.

Typical barvarian food and beer garden :) enjoyed the food and vibes!

Let yourself be enchanted by a taste experience – here, authenticity meets German cuisine. The Kaiserschmarrn was undoubtedly the best we've ever enjoyed in Munich, and the warm, attentive service left nothing to be desired. We felt completely at home.

Visiting as tourist from America The service was incredible, was helped by someone that spoke English and was very polite. The food is incredible, started with a chanterelles and burrata dish that was great, paired with obatzda. Both dishes were unique and flavorful. We also got the Wiener schnitzel and chicken schnitzel, so flavorful and tender and came with great sides. Ended with the kaischerschmarn, make sure you order before you end dinner as it takes 20-30 min to prepare Highly recommend this place

Nice little inner-city beer garden

A regular beer garden in the middle of Schwabing is great. The food selection is modest and should be expanded to include classics.

A high-class inn with authentic Bavarian cuisine and a modern ambiance. The beer garden under venerable chestnut trees is an urban refuge – excellent beers, friendly service, and a charming atmosphere.

We LOVED the Kaiserschmarrn here.

I can only recommend this restaurant. As a native Bavarian, I really enjoyed my visit. Great taste, top quality, and super friendly and attentive service. We now live in the greater Cologne area, and I think the value for money at Max Emanuel is absolutely reasonable for Munich. The pictures speak for themselves. We also had Kaasspatzen (cheese spaetzle) with a large salad to go, which is also highly recommended. I'd definitely go back!

Very good food. Friendly staff. Pleasant atmosphere.

The food in the beer garden was too expensive for the portion size (Munich is all well and good) and unfortunately a bit cold. The instructions at the bar were excellent. The ambiance is very pleasant under the trees.

We rented this beer garden for an event (180 people). The food in a pleasant setting was outstanding, the wine selection was excellent, and the staff was very accommodating and always on time. Highly recommended!

Great restaurant, beer garden with and without waitress service. Good food and drinks anyway.

Upscale restaurant with really delicious food!

Good local restaurant, the interior is very beautiful and the outdoor terrace is very clean. You can eat in the restaurant or in the Biergaten area where you serve yourself. The service is very good and fast. The food is good but nothing extraordinary. The prices are a bit high.

Excellent food and service. They just need to improve the air conditioning, as it was very hot in the dining room.

A lovely little shady beer garden. Divided into a waiter-service section and a self-service section. The selection is good and plentiful. Unfortunately, not all beers were available in the self-service section.

Delicious food and very good service! Thank you very much.

I had the Schnitzel (for 36€) and was disappointed. Schnittzel was quite basic and also small for that price. Roasted potatos were these type you would get at your grandmas on the stepmother side...the one that doesn't love you. The were like from yesterday or couple days ago. Cranberry sause watery. All together- not worth it to go there for Schitzel. Service was quite forgetful. The side salads for my friends came when they were almost finished. Atmothphere and interior design very nice though.

Nice atmosphere, but I waited an hour for the Wiener Backhendl. There were only three tables when I got here… does it really take that long, or did they forget about me?

The Wirtshaus Max Emanuel is a rather upscale restaurant with a chic flair. The food was truly delicious. I had a Wiener Schnitzel with fried potatoes. The schnitzel was excellent, but the potatoes could have used a bit more salt. The service was very friendly and attentive; there's nothing to complain about. However, we had to wait a full 50 minutes for our food, even though the restaurant wasn't particularly busy. That was definitely too long. Furthermore, the interior smelled strongly of grease, which somewhat spoiled the otherwise pleasant impression.

Nice restaurant. The food is very tasty. However, it's expensive (including drinks) and the portions are small (even when ordering a large one). I wouldn't go there again.

Serving typical Bavarian fare and beer in a nice environment -- the food is excellent for this category. Difficult to get outside garden tables without reservations when weather is nice.

Friendly service and very good food, however a little bit pricey.

Typical German food. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and delicious food. The menu is in English, and the prices are reasonable.

We had dinner there for the first time. The ambiance and service were excellent. The veal schnitzel was a flop. For the high price of €34, I expected meat and not just breading. Unfortunately, it was very disappointing.

Very nice restaurant. The schnitzel was great and so was the Kaiserschmarren.

The beer garden is truly beautiful! But when you see the prices, you'll lose your appetite.

Kaiserschmarrn was unbelievably sweet (which was too much). Schnitzel and especially the potatoes were great.

Very poor value for money and unpleasant staff. Move on.

Very bad experience with this place. Rude and impolite service. Cynical staff. Zero customer focus. I do not recommend.

I will never return to this unpleasant place

Disappointing experience. The service was poor and lacked any customer focus. The food was of only average quality, yet priced excessively high. I would not recommend this place.

Extremely disappointing experience. The staff was notably rude and unaccommodating, especially the waiter, who was blatantly impolite. The food was overpriced and lacked quality—definitely not worth the cost. We were a group of 20 and encountered zero flexibility or effort to accommodate us. This place is not worth your time or money. Strongly recommend avoiding it.

Rudest people ever met in my entire life, over rated food and very bad experience, would never recommend it to my biggest enemies

The price-performance ratio is depressing. You call these two breaded pieces of meat a large Wiener Schnitzel? Beer for just under 6 euros? How's it different from the one on tap at Stieglmaierplatz?

Loved the ambiance and the drink here. I would highly recommend the Emanuel Sbagliato. Was delish. didn't have any food there as met some friends for a quick drink but the restaurant was upscale and decorated with a nice warm finesse.

We were here with the team – highly recommended! Super delicious schnitzel with an excellent side dish. Top-notch service!

We had an absolutely fantastic evening at this restaurant – simply perfect from start to finish! We were there with a large group of ten people, the restaurant was packed to capacity, and yet everything ran like clockwork. A huge compliment to our wonderful waitress, Fahima! She was absolutely amazing – super attentive, friendly, and extremely professional. Despite the hustle and bustle, she always kept an eye on things, refilled drinks, cleared plates, and even made sure everyone got their food at the same time – which is certainly not a given with such a large group. You could really feel how much passion and dedication she puts into it. The food was also a real highlight: The starters included Obatzda (traditional Austrian sausage) and tartar – both wonderfully seasoned. This was followed by juicy schnitzel and perfectly cooked asparagus, and to finish, a heavenly Kaiserschmarrn (sweet pancake with pancakes), which you couldn't wish for better. Every course was a delight, the quality of the ingredients was top-notch, and everything was fresh and lovingly prepared. The combination of great service, delicious food, and a cozy atmosphere truly made our evening special. We'll definitely be back—and hope we'll be lucky enough to be looked after by Fahima again. Thank you so much for this fantastic evening!

No, I can't recommend it anymore. The Max-Emanuel was a venerable institution, but the Schotenhamel family unfortunately bulldozed it. The food is good, and the wait time was okay. However, it seems like the waiters there are forced to do forced labor, given how unhappy they are. The good times are unfortunately over here.

Everything tasted good. Both the Käsespätzle and the Kaiserschmarrn were really delicious. The prices weren't too high, and the service was good, too.

Very nice ambience & very delicious schnitzel and cheese spaetzle

We always enjoy going to Max Emanuel. We recently went there with a large group (33 people, pre-booked). The food is always excellent, the service friendly and attentive. The ambiance is both traditional and modern. We'd be happy to go back anytime.

Four of us went to dinner in the catered area. Service and ambiance were excellent. Prices were normal for a catered restaurant in Munich. Portions were somewhat small. The taste was average, nothing special, but still good.

Excellent cuisine. Very friendly waiter.

Beautiful, green beer garden in the middle of Schwabing, unfortunately there isn't much sun coming in through the surrounding residential buildings.

Super nice beer garden in the middle of the residential area

Incredibly delicious food and very nice service. Highly recommended

The baked potato cost 17 EUR and it was just two stuffed medium potatoes after everyone was hungry

A modern Bavarian inn with traditional charm and a contemporary twist. Homemade classics meet creative cuisine, the ambience is stylish and cozy. Perfect for lovers of Bavarian cuisine in a modern style.

It's a shame that the "tavern of the present" is declining again. I miss the vegetarian schnitzel and the veggie currywurst in the beer garden, and the small Kaiserschmarrn is no longer offered. The potato salad probably comes out of the packaging (at least there are empty buckets lying around)… but it is very expensive

Das Wienerschnitzel ist gut, aber nicht außergewöhnlich. Als Nachtisch haben wir uns drei Portionen Kaiserschmarrn geteilt, die in einer Pfanne kamen und nur von zweimal Zwetschgen und Apfelmus begleitet wurden. Die Qualität des Kaiserschmarrn war aber gut. Die Rosinen in Rum eingelegt, das ganze mit Mandelsplittern verfeinert. Der Teig war noch fluffig und schön kandidiert. Enttäuschend war der blaue Zweigelt. Auch bei einem offenen Wagen dürfte man einer etwas bessere Qualität erwarten. Die Bedienung ist freundlich und in aller Regel flink.

Very nice atmosphere especially if you sit outside. Unfortunately we had to wait over an hour for our food. The waiter was absolutely not friendly and the response to questions was rude. The crusty roast was generally good but unfortunately oversalted. There are definitely better places in Munich for Bavarian food.

Price-performance ratio is simply not suitable at all. Breakfast was nothing special and there was a decent surcharge for small things. Really tiny portions for such prices. Service staff were very nice.

We waited an hour for our food. The waiter was extremely unfriendly. Salad dressing was just okay. Cranberries with the Wiener Schnitzel were too sour and not sweet. Not good value for money.

Mehr Tamtam als besondere Qualität! Aufwendig wird nach Platz gesucht, obwohl viele Tische leer. Essen teuer bei durchschnittlicher Qualität. Kasspatzn mit geschmacklosen Käse fast 20 Euro. Soße zum Schweinsbraten versalzen. Einzig die Bedienung ist sehr nett, aber nicht immer aufmerksam.

Great beer garden in the middle of the city, delicious food, dog friendly! Tip top beer garden 👍

Super friendly staff accompany the evening, which is characterized by very good food. Top quality (the origin of meat and fish is described and is regional) and perfectly seasoned.

From beer to main course, everything was delicious!

Super delicious Kaiserschmarrn ❤️

The location is great, great food, great atmosphere. Nevertheless the prices are extreme even for Munich level. Maybe it is better at the Biergarten, but inside it is not fun anymore.

Cold food and very unfriendly service. Food was also cold at the neighboring tables.

Nice atmosphere, especially the small garden outside is very cute. The food tastes very good, but to be honest it's not really worth it for the price. I had a fried chicken salad and expected (as I know it) to get 5-6 long baked chicken strips on a large salad. What I got was very nicely presented and really tasty, but really not enough for the price (almost €25): 3 small pieces of baked chicken and a small bowl of potato salad. The roast pork for almost €22 is also likely to be well on the higher end, even in Maxvorstadt. And yes, I know: staff, rent and food all cost, but I have the feeling that the calculations are very generous here. Conclusion: Tasty, but I don't necessarily have to go back here anytime soon.

Prices are now outrageous, the quality is significantly better elsewhere Too bad

Great place to eat the traditional german food and have some beer. Great service! Highly recommended to make a reservation before

Everything is new 👍 beautiful restaurant, there are even cloth napkins. Food tastes great and great service. Highly recommended 👏🤩 would like to do it more often 😍

Unfortunately, a shocking experience. I ordered a quarter of fried chicken, but when I cut it open, blood came out. The meat was raw, the liver was red and undercooked – just fried or baked. Something like that shouldn't happen in a restaurant! Absolutely inedible and dangerous to health. I cannot recommend this restaurant.

Very happy here on site. Incredibly beautiful, modern but still traditional restaurant in the middle of Munich! Service is always 1A and the open kitchen is an eye-catcher! The food served here not only looks great, it also tastes outrageously delicious!! Absolute recommendation!

Amazing! One of my favorites in Munich! Food, atmosphere, and service was awesome! There was live music, service was very kind, and food delicious!

Went for the schnitzel and it did not disappoint! Great food. Staff was very kind and the space was beautifully designed.

I like the Max Emanuel and therefore give it five stars. The atmosphere is great, whether inside or in the beer garden in summer. Food is generally great too. Personally, I didn't like the brunch as much. The menu is not very extensive, but very “fancy” – apart from the white sausage breakfast and scrambled eggs, I had to google most of the dishes first. But that may also be my problem, I was just expecting something different - some others might like exactly that it's not run of the mill. Oh yes, but cappuccino was really difficult, 2/3 foam in the cup is really not possible at the level that the Max Emanuel is aiming for.
