SAM - sushi and meat - Maxvorstadt in München

Large restaurant (I've always managed to get a seat so far), friendly staff, and excellent food! I especially recommend the egg-free (vegan) Veggie Crispy Rice Bowl!

We tried the all you can eat option. Ordering via tablet is generally a great idea, but the pictures don't always match the actual portion. It's worth taking a look at the small print - the picture shows, for example: For example, if you see two maki, six are served. It's easy to misjudge this. The sashimi is cut a little thicker, but the taste and quality are top notch. Service and speed were impeccable - although it was still quite quiet at the time of our visit.

I was there at lunchtime. At lunchtime a dish costs around 13, which is very expensive. Service was just ok. You could really tell he wasn't in the mood😅 I had ordered soup, the meat was a huge lump and somehow didn't look very appetizing🙈 I don't have to go there again now

Expensive snd salad bowls have too much mayonnaise.

My meal was good, but my friend's meal had lots of very hard and fatty pieces of pork even though she ordered chicken. Service quick and friendly

My visit here was simply outstanding! The atmosphere is modern and stylish. The service was first class: fast, friendly and unobtrusive. The waiters were always there, but never annoying, exactly as it should be. And most important: the sushi! The quality was absolutely top, especially the nigiri and sashimi. The fish was extremely fresh, the cuts were perfect and the rice-fish balance was just right. The in-house creations were particularly exciting, such as truffle sushi, which opened up a whole new dimension of taste. Asparagus sushi and many creative inside-out rolls also provided varied variations. In terms of taste, everything was intense, but harmoniously coordinated and simply at a high level! The price-performance ratio is unbeatable: €42 for all-you-can-eat (without drinks) and a quality that you would otherwise only get à la carte.

SAM is a great place for oriental cuisine. The takoyaki is phenomenal and so is the rest of the food. The servers are very friendly and helpful. We had the all you can eat special and found it a very fun experience. Will definitely go again.

Simply brilliant. Mega delicious.

Nice restaurant, good location. Delicious food. Everything tip top

My friend and I did the all you can eat a la carte today. The food is incredibly tasty and high quality. Everything was perfect and quickly at the table. Using an iPad you have a huge selection of sushi, bowls, Japanese tapas, ramen and vegetarian food or even grilled fish and meat. The drinks - especially the homemade non-alcoholic ginger-lyche-mint smash - are also very tasty! The service and our dear waiter are always attentive. Thank you for the lovely evening. We'll be back.

Unfortunately our visit was a disappointment. We specifically chose this restaurant because of the advertised “all you can eat” promotion starting in February. However, we were informed on site in a very unfriendly manner that the campaign had not yet started. If you advertise it, the offer should also be available - or at least clearly communicated. The food was generally good, but the prices for the portion sizes are very high. It's a shame, we expected more.

I found the restaurant more or less by chance. It was very well attended and the lunch menu was very appealing. The staff is very nice and despite the high volume, the waiting time was very short. Highly recommended

The veggie curry was one of the best dishes I've ever eaten. Really excellent!

The food was great, we tried lots, from the ramen, to the bowls and desserts. All tasted amazing, service was great and so was the atmosphere, only complaint is that it’s pretty expensive. 6 pieces of typical inside out maki sushi for 18€ is way too expensive.

Awesome food, decent pricing, and hefty portion sizes. Highly recommend if you're looking for a place with good quality ramen!

Extremely delicious!! Ramen is sensational.

A really great restaurant with a Japanese flair. Although the seating is not as nice as the Schwanthalerhöhe location, it is still inviting. I had two different rolls, boiled peas and a few bites of the dumplings that my relatives had ordered. I found the prices for the food to be okay, but the prices for the drinks were bottomless. €5.20 for a mango spritzer served in an IKEA glass was already at the limit. Service was very friendly, but unfortunately not often enough at our table to ask for further orders.

I will continue to downrate every single restaurant that refuses to serve tap water. So there you go. It's the most natural thing in the entire rest of the world. Grow up.

Ramen very tasty and with some local inspiration

I'm not familiar with this type of food but I really enjoyed it. A pleasant change. The service and boss were all very nice. If you want to eat cheaply, this is of course the wrong place for you to go to a restaurant like this. The prices are absolutely reasonable.

The main ingredients for ramen were diverse and sufficient. I wanted it to be Chicken Broth, but they brought it as vegetable broth. The amount of meat is sufficient, it may be useful for those who prefer vegetables to consider the price. Everything needed for a short visit was available. The place is large, there are enough tables for mass gatherings. I didn't use the toilet.

We visited the restaurant and, although the food was of good quality (we really liked the ramen in particular), the service did not live up to expectations. We left a 7 euro tip, but didn't even receive a hello or thank you from the waitress. Also, we wanted to take away some food we ordered, but we were asked to pay extra for the box. A disappointing experience from a service point of view, despite the good food. Unfortunately I don't think I will return, hoping that they will improve the attention towards customers.

the best far east couisine restaurante in Munich.. adviced..

A culinary high-quality restaurant! Today I visited the restaurant in the evening. Immediately after entering, we (two people) were assigned a table. The decor of the restaurant created a great ambience. The menu offered a diverse selection of drinks and food. I decided on a delicious cocktail and also tried some Japanese beer. Both complemented the meal excellently, although the price of the beer was surprisingly low despite being imported from Japan. Both the drinks and the food didn't take long to arrive. Both were brought to the table surprisingly quickly. I ate the "Mango Veggie Roll" and the "Chicken Dumplings". I really enjoyed both dishes. The "Mango Veggie Roll" had 6 large pieces and was served with a delicious peanut sauce. The roll was well filled with cream cheese, mango and avocado. The "Chicken Dumplings", 5 pieces, were very deliciously seasoned and were also served with a fine sauce. The operating staff was always friendly, attentive and courteous. You never had to wait long. The only complaint was that the music didn't really fit the restaurant. The evening in the restaurant was very cozy and relaxed. I can recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to enjoy fine Asian cuisine.

Price/performance is not right at all. Very disappointing! Bowl for €22 had almost nothing in it..

The restaurant seems cold and unimaginative. The furniture is very uncomfortable. We ordered the platter for 2 people. 40 euros are charged per person. Which is totally fine. But when the record came out we were honestly shocked because it was really tiny. A total of 120 euros for a small plate, 2 soups and 2 drinks is quite proud.

Great restaurant, fast service and great food. I personally find sitting on benches without backrests uncomfortable in the long run.

After a work event, we headed to this spot. The ambiance was pleasant, and the food didn’t disappoint. The enormous salad and fresh sushi were highlights. It was a relaxing, enjoyable experience, and sharing it with a work colleague made it all the more memorable.

- Ramen not very authentic - Rice Bowl, OK, but a bit of mixed together ingredients - Sushi so-so The taste is not appropriate for the price, the quality of the ingredients is good.

Very nice and handsome bartender, delicious food and good service! ☺️

Overly priced food, extremely sweet drinks with too much syrop, unfriendly and unprofessional staff, dull atmosphere.

The food is excellent! We went twice on our trip and everything was exceptional! I highly recommend the ramen!

Very tasty 😋 You can put together your own ramen. Really good 👍🏼

Great food, well suited for bigger groups as there's loads of big tables. Unfortunately there was some confusion around telling their dishes apart, which makes it difficult in groups where you just need serving staff who are really on it.

I've eaten here a few times. It's super tasty and the portions are really big. The staff is very friendly.

The food is soooo good. Came here with my family and I recommend everything we ate there. Definitely gonna come back

Everything deserves 5 stars The waiter was very nice and accommodating Great photo of Japan The best sushi in Munich Plate 90 The Japanese beer is also worth trying

We went for the second time, it is a great place in everything, everything we ate was very, very delicious. You should definitely try the fusion sushi.

Good location and nice interior. Unfortunately, we encountered a very unfriendly waiter. The food was tasty, but the wait was too long, especially considering there were only 3-4 tables occupied, and oddly, other customers got their ramen before us, even though they arrived later. Prices are above average, even a bit expensive. The atmosphere is pleasant, except for the unpleasant waiter :) Also, it was surprising they don't offer free tap water; very good cocktails though

The best sushi I have eaten. Super fresh, perfect rice cooking, top filling. It costs a small budget but it's worth it. I recommend.

We spontaneously went to SAM for the first time and ordered 4 Japanese tapas, pork belly (very soft and well seasoned), dumplings, spinach and salmon sashimi. If you're not hungry, this selection is highly recommended. The salmon in particular melted in the mouth.

Nice shop, nice service. The ramen soup with pork belly was delicious!

SAM is Japanese-inspired fusion food, big portion sizes and good cuts of sushi and sashimi. We had the Chirashi don (sashimi and salad on a bed of rice), Black River roll (BBQ eel, avocado and shrimp), the Salmon Poke Bowl (more of a salad with cubed salmon and tuna sashimi), and a BBQ pork belly rice bowl. It's a fun spot with an upbeat vibe and the service is friendly. Nice spot for dates and group dinners. Great list of Japanese/Asian inspired cocktails and sake.

I had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. One in five sushi rolls ordered was delivered incorrectly, and the waiter was unhelpful, initially denying the error. Instead of replacing the wrong reel for free, we were only offered half price for the correct reel. The handling of the error was unprofessional and unfortunately spoiled the overall impression. I hope that customer complaints will be addressed better in the future.

Ramen very tasty Suat at the bar was very friendly and the atmosphere was generally nice

Been there twice in a week. Amazing sushi and salad

Very nice, modern restaurant The ramen was really good Strong broth and good, juicy pork The noodles were also great Unfortunately, the egg is far too overcooked and should have been softer or slightly runny in the core All in all, very good ramen

As always, it was delicious! Fast, helpful service that was also attentive! Very clean and satisfied! Arigato!

Very, very overpriced, we ordered chicken wings and they came with 3 pieces for 10 euros, such a rip off, the food is not worth the money at all, there are definitely better spots in Munich, think three times

SAM Sushi is one of the best in Munich, but I'd rather go to Neuhausen. In Maxvorstadt there is always stress with the service. Wrong orders, unfriendly, hectic - very loud music and uncomfortable furniture complete the atmosphere. But SAM Neuhausen gets ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent food, nothing to say. There are many vegetarian and vegan alternatives. Everything exquisite. Only thing: a little expensive.

Worst service ever. A waiter was rude and argued with us over a simple ordering mixup. Will not be returning to a place that treats customers so poorly.

I enjoyed the ramen and drinks. I had a great time during my first visit so I took my friends along with me the next time. The experience on my second visit however was bad enough to prompt me never to go back again. My friends had a misunderstanding related to their order. But as we tried to resolve the issue, we were met with aggressive behavior from a member of the waitstaff who claimed to be the manager. Shocked and disappointed.

It was my first time here and I couldn't really imagine what the name on the menu said. I was even more positively surprised by the presentation and taste. Impressive. The staff is very friendly. I would be happy to come back.

Very good and fresh food, friendly and courteous service.

Delicious sushi - but the portions could be larger or cheaper. Unfortunately it wasn't a completely satisfactory experience. The service was equally so-so, relatively slow and not visible for ages when we wanted to pay

Worst service ever. A waiter was rude and argued with us over a simple ordering mixup. I will no longer return to a place that treats customers so poorly.

Mega delicious sushi! Expensive but super super tasty 😍

Food was very good, although a bit pricy for what's offered. Service was not particularly attentive. Atmosphere is nothing special at all

It was almost empty, they were served on time, I ordered a mixed soup with udon noodles and seafood for an additional fee. The broth is classic spicy, inside they put soy sprouts, half an egg, a piece of salmon and half a potato yam 😄 this pleasure cost 22-23 euros. Compared to Germany, the soup was good and nice-looking) the waitress was responsive and offered to charge the phone, because... I didn't have a charger.

Delicious ramen, but unfortunately our liter of water cost €8, which is incomprehensible.

The barbecued pork with a la carte white rice is very delicious. It should be much better than ramen. If you eat too much bread in Germany, you will feel like crying when you eat white rice. Rice is the most delicious☺️

The price per person is 38 euros, the service is okay, and the taste is okay.

Delicious food! Prices are at Munich level, so you can leave around 30 euros. The waitress doesn't come to the table on their own, you have to give them a look. But otherwise super nice people!

Everything was perfect, we were very satisfied!

Very nice service, top quality.

Lunch with great value for money and very good quality for a balanced meal. The Superfood Rice Bowl vegan or with chicken, €10.90 each, is a good portion and comes with a small starter soup. The service was quick and friendly.

Highly recommended lunch menu, very tasty and great service!

There is not only sushi, but also really recommended ramen with different ingredients and preparation methods: with meat, vegetarian and also vegan. Tastes good and filling. Not everyone can manage an appetizer or dessert... seats at the edge are nice... the large benches in the middle have no backrest and are uncomfortable in the long run

Very good food and very nice service. The menu is not to my taste but everyone has their preferences. Only recommended! :)

Very nice service top👍 very tasty food😋 Something had to be done about the ambience😌

Reserved table was not available. Starters and main courses were served together. Food good, but prices very demanding.

Unfortunately the salmon bowl was missing. When I contacted the restaurant by phone, I was forwarded to the next employee, who was unfriendly from the start and also very unreasonable and claimed that the supplier must have stolen the dish (which I can't imagine with the best will in the world) and I I should contact Volt.

Very friendly service. A bit sterile inside Food tasted good but could be a bit bigger for the price. My mistake was that I didn't pay attention to the fact that there was almost only sushi

I overcharged myself even though I had a lunch menu. Now for the second time. Bottomless

The service and food at SAM are simply wonderful. We had several types of sushi, Japanese tapas and dessert. Everything was super tasty and beautifully prepared.

We ate very well and plentifully here. The food is of good quality and very fresh. The service was quick and friendly. Priced within the framework for the location in Schwabing.

They cheated, and by a large amount! The menu lists the price for a board of sushi for two, but the waitress brazenly stated that this is the price for one person. She refused to issue an invoice before payment, then they saw on the receipt that the price was written in as on the menu. But since we were immediately outraged by the price, the amount we paid went through. The hall is a stable: long tables and benches. Sushi and sushi, nothing special. I am attaching a photo of our order. We paid 274 euros for it! The impression was disgusting! I don't recommend it!

I was thoroughly impressed by this Japanese restaurant. The wheat ramen with vegetables and the accompanying tempura were absolutely delicious. Additionally, the ambience of the restaurant was quite pleasant, as it offered a spacious and comfortable environment.

Plus: food, ambience, drinking was nice/tasty Minus: Apparently there is only one waiter and you always have to get his attention because he is very busy. Restaurant was too loud for me Prices do not match on all cards

Very good, although I eat by mistake with one of the spoons that was meant as decoration. Hope I won’t get sick :)

Visiting this restaurant left a very bad impression. The prices are not right. The atmosphere is very loud. There is no ventilation in the restaurant, it is very stuffy, the windows cannot be opened. Disappointed with the service as the waiter did not specify that the order of the set should be paid per person and not for the set itself. I didn't really like the taste of the food either.

The dining experience here is below average. We were traveling here for museum visits. On our way, we decided to stop by and grab lunch. When we first walked in the door, there wasn’t anyone greeting us or taking us to the table. There was only one waiter and many bartenders behind the bar. Only two tables were occupied. The bartenders obviously noticed us but didn’t say anything until I asked them where to sit. From the moment we walked in, there was an elderly white woman who kept staring at us bluntly and gossiping with her friend. I don’t get it - why it’s surprising to see Asians in an Asian restaurant, come on. The ramens we ordered were really salty and not really good. There was no service at all. When the waiter finally came when we asked him for a check. He asked us how it was, and I told him that it’s okay but the ramen was too salty. He seemed unbelievable / offended. My friend was paying with card, and there was no tipping options below 25%. Because the service was almost none to poor, and the food was bad, she didn’t want to tip. The waiter then told us in a really unpleasant tone that “in Germany, you are required to pay tips.” The whole restaurant is a joke 👍

We had the bowl with tempura vegetables and the vegetable curry. The tempura vegetables were more of a vegetable fritter and the curry was massive and lukewarm, so I wondered whether there was a real kitchen here or whether everything had been prepared for a long time and was just shoved under the microwave. In any case, neither was freshly cooked. A look at the table next door showed that the sushi looked really good, even if it wasn't exactly cheap. A glass of wine 0.2 is also quite expensive at €9-10. The service was nice and accepted our criticism in a friendly manner. Ambience quite loud and not very comfortable. Conclusion: more for younger, not so demanding guests, but with enough money in their pockets.

This place got really expensive

Super service but disappointing food

Good sushi, but not that much of varieties.

Really delicious food at reasonable prices and great selection. The picture shows the lunch menu M1 - Ramen with meat, which tastes great. The service staff are extremely committed, but at lunchtime it often takes at least 40 minutes from being seated until the food arrives. It gets crowded during the lunch break and it's a bit surprising why there are too few staff at that time.

Super delicious!! The chicken dumplings are particularly recommended. The cocktails were also very good. There is a lot of space inside, so with a bit of luck you can find something even without a reservation. The service was very nice and attentive.

Balanced lunch menus with good portions :)

Very tasty ramen and miso soups. Good cocktails.

The food is very tasty and tender. The pork belly is especially tender and the sauce is perfect. The sushi is a bit pricey but honestly it is worth the price and I'm saying that and I've never considered myself a big sushi fan. 10/10 would recommend. The "sushi on fire" plate is a bargain tho, totally worth it.

Tasty food, we had the ramen bowl and avocado salad bowl with some dumplings, finished with some moochi. Service was warm and pleasant.

Searched something healthy and nice and crossed SAM. We’ve been impressed from the food …literally really amazing! Service have been very friendly and supportive. Scenery is a bit rustic and basic. Worth to go 👍🏽

Simple lovely Japanese food. If you want to have a nice evening with friends, for some drinks and some Japanese bites, this is definitely place you would enjoy.

Total leckeres Sushi in preiswertem Mittagsmenü.

I really liked it! Very tasteful experience! And the waiter last Friday was on fire❤️‍🔥

Unglaublich lecker!! Da kommt man sicher wieder

Sushi schmecken zu normal, dagegen sind die Preise wirklich gehoben.

Sehr leckeres Sushi und Ramen, gute Drinks allerdings nicht ganz günstig. Schönes Ambiente, der Service hat uns allerdings oft übersehen weil wir an einem Ecktisch saßen. Jedoch bekamen wir einen Drink aufs Haus als es stark regnete und wir an der Bar auf besseres Wetter gewartet haben! Top!
