Shimai in München

Wir waren das erste Mal in diesem Restaurant und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt top Preisleistung, immer wieder gerne.

Wir waren mittags dort. Essen war gut und ausreichend.Schön war,dass der Reis dazu serviert wird. So kann man selbst einteilen. Freundlicher Service.

Es ist im hinteren Bereich sehr laut :) Ansonsten wirklich top. Wenn es geht vorne Reservieren!

Leider war der erste Satz der Begrüßung : sie haben den Tisch nur 2 Stunden. Zudem wurden wir in dem hinterem Teil platziert, der sehr dunkel und ist. Gleichzeitig fand in dem kleinen Raum eine Geburtstagsfeier mit ca 15 Leuten statt. Wir konnten uns kaum unterhalten. Es wäre schön gewesen, wenn man uns in den vorderen Raum platziert hätte. War jetzt kein Highlight!

Passt einfach immer dort! Habe da noch nie schlecht gegessen. Unbedingt die Signature Cocktails probieren!

So empfehlenswert! Leckeres Essen und so höfliche Mitarbeiter! Sehr ruhig und man kann sich wunderbar unterhalten und runterkommen und das Essen genießen

This restaurant is fantastic. I go there every few days and I'm never disappointed. Great food, excellent value for money, and very friendly staff.

Einfach immer gut! Bester Laden - super frisch und lecker

Excellent Asian Fusion food, tasty food, and upscale interior decoration. Good vegetarian options.

One of the best Asian restaurants in Munich. The atmosphere is great and the staff is very friendly. The food is of excellent quality, and you can even find dishes that you wouldn't necessarily expect, but which taste fantastic. I always enjoy eating here.

Tolles Ambiente mit phantastischem Essen und hervorragenden Drinks. Servicepersonal ist sehr aufmerksam und freundlich. Reservierung erforderlich.

Stylish restaurant with fantastic food and excellent drinks. The service staff is very attentive and friendly.

A very nice restaurant that looks rather unassuming from the outside. The food is excellent. Highly recommended.

Some of the main dishes were a bit too salty (we ordered stir-fried vermicelli and tofu and vegetable rice). The service and ambiance were good, but they insisted on charging a tip of about 8%.

We arrived a little early; the restaurant was just opening, but we were still warmly welcomed in. We enjoyed a delicious meal in a cozy atmosphere and would gladly return.

Sehr gutes Essen, aufmerksamer Service, kreative Karte – nur das Ambiente lässt etwas zu wünschen übrig.

Excellent service, high-quality food at a fair price, and I even got a (very good) complimentary espresso. Thank you! I'll be back.

Very good food, friendly and fast service. Recommended!

Always a pleasure. Consistent, high quality.

Excellent food and great service. The dishes are consistently good and always taste fantastic. I love the combination of sauces with the vegetables and meat/fish. The vegetables are always very fresh, too. Definitely a recommendation for good Asian cuisine. The value for money at lunchtime is unbeatable.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I've now been to Shimai in Maxvorstadt twice and I'm thrilled every time. Fresh, creative, yet traditional Vietnamese cuisine, incredibly delicious dishes, and extremely friendly staff. For me, the best Vietnamese restaurant in Munich – a definite recommendation and a full 5 stars!

Ich habe spontan einen Tisch bestellt und hatte einen sehr schönen Abend mit sehr leckerem Essen. Ich werde definitiv wiederkommen.

A very nice restaurant serving freshly prepared, authentic Vietnamese/Thai food. The business lunch, in particular, offers large portions at very reasonable prices! Always happy to return.

Plus: An appealing ambiance with really good and attentive service. The wine and drinks menu is also excellent. Minus: Unfortunately, the red curry tasted like little more than mildly spiced coconut milk with frozen vegetables, somewhat reminiscent of a Vietnamese fast food joint. I expected more at around €20 per main course.

Very, very good food. Nice atmosphere inside.

Es war wie immer sehr gut, der Service aufmerksam, aber nicht aufdringlich. Die Speisen extrem lecker mit einem guten Preis- Leistungsverhältnis. Wir kommen wieder beim nächsten Münchenbesuch.

We had a great time, the place was clean and the food was excellent!

We were here for the first time today, coming here completely spontaneously. The food is super good; we each had two tapas. It was delicious, and we were all full. The vibe is nice, and the service is super friendly. We'd love to come back.

Very tasty food and friendly service :)

We were there for lunch and chose our dishes from the lunch menu. It was delicious, and the service was quick and friendly. The lunch specials are also unbeatable value for money! :)

Best Asian food in Munich! Super delicious and top quality!

Super expensive - for a main dish (rice and veggies you can pay 25 eur

Food was a decent portion, service was good however they refused to bring us any tap water and made us pay 8 euros for 2 small glasses of water.

Incredibly delicious food! I had the red curry with shrimp. Unfortunately, I didn't take a photo of the appetizer platter, but I highly recommend it. Even though the food is a bit more expensive, it's definitely worth it – the quality was top-notch! Another plus point is the huge selection of food and drinks, and the friendly service.

What is fine dining? Does that mean the food is served on black plates and you pay double? Don't get me wrong, it tasted very good. But rice with vegetables for €18 is a bit much. Then it should at least be organic. And a large bottle of water for €7.50 is an absolute disgrace. The staff was super nice, but they brought the wrong main course. It's definitely worth going there once, but I wouldn't go more often. I'd rather go to the small Vietnamese restaurant around the corner, where it costs half as much and tastes just as good.

Our daughter, who lives in Munich, had chosen the restaurant, which tourists would probably pass by. We sat comfortably in a kind of winter garden. The service was excellent, the house cocktails and lemonades were outstanding, and the food was sensational—you don't always have to eat pork belly and knuckles in a beer garden!

I'm a student from Berlin and was here last week. The food was too greasy, and there was no wine recommendation. After a bill of over €200, we left a €10 tip, and overheard the staff complaining that it was "too little." Very disappointing and unprofessional.

We were here for dinner for the first time. Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food! We'd love to come back!

Vielfältige Karte mit teils ausgefallenen Gerichten, sehr schön angerichtet. Durchaus vernünftiges Preis-Leistungsverhältnis, es gibt auch günstigere Gerichte auf der Tageskarte, aber es lohnt sich immer. Gerne wieder!

Very nice ambiance, relaxed atmosphere, welcome, perfect service, and very friendly staff. Very good food, imaginatively prepared, with fresh ingredients. I made a reservation a few days in advance because demand was so high. We'll definitely be back!

Very tasty lunch with a colleague of mine. We both had duck, with peanut sauce and with sweet and sour sauce. Both were excellent and can be recommended. Service is really good, fast and helpful.

very good food and good service

It was a very tasty Vietnamese restaurant. The food was excellent, especially the duck, which is highly recommended!

The food was delicious. Generous sized portions. Staff was very friendly to an American family. Great find in Munich

Excellent food. I've rarely eaten so well. Very reasonable value for money.

I've visited several times and it's one of the best restaurants for Asian cuisine in Munich! Great location and ambiance. Friendly service. Very good food and good quality. (Unlike many other popular spots, you can easily reserve a table the day before or on the day.)

The food was amazing. I had the "Roll It Yourself" with duck and shrimp, which was absolutely amazing! The food came really quickly, and the service was very friendly and attentive.

Shimai in Maxvorstadt impresses with its successful combination of Vietnamese flavors with Japanese influences and European sophistication. Fresh ingredients, creative dishes, and a modern ambiance ensure a successful culinary experience.

Had lunch on a hot Sunday. Ten people sat outside. The wooden roof was unbearable, and there were no fans! The food was as good as any other Asian restaurant.

Wie immer ein Highlight! Unser Lieblingsasiate in München. Toller Service, sehr schönes Ambiente und fantastisches Essen. Eine absolute Empfehlung.

The food was really delicious, and there's a small selection of vegan/vegetarian options. I had the butter tofu dish, which was really delicious. And the vegetarian dumplings were also great! The interior is a bit darker, so older people might have trouble reading the menu :D Suggestions for improvement: - Please better label vegan and gluten-free dishes! - More vegan dishes would be appreciated.

A great Vietnamese spot tucked away in the heart of the Maxvorstadt. There was lots of outdoor seating available with a retractable roof and heaters for chilly or rainy months. The food was great, especially the papaya salad as well as the veggie dumplings and avocado and eggplant salads. The organic butter tofu was delicious as well. The service was very welcoming and friendly and the interior decor of the restaurant was also very modern and well done. All in all a great spot to get your Vietnamese food fix!

Awesome food, nice ambiance. Little bit expensive but I believe it worths it. We tried three starters and two main course for three people. It was more than enough. Went there twice and both times were amazing

The quality of the food is the same as in a restaurant in a shopping center. It's a real shame. The price-performance ratio isn't right at all. The staff is very helpful, but the price is definitely not reasonable. They only serve 0.2 litres of Coke with ice, and the rest is water without ice. This menu simply needs more to offer.

Delicious and creative Vietnamese food served by kind staff who knows the cuisine in and out! The quality and freshness of ingredients is superior which when combined with great techniques means you get creative dishes like their bánh tôm!

The Pho rice noodles and red curry were super delicious 👍🏻👍🏻 It was more delicious than what I ate in Vietnam It was really delicious ✨

Really nice food and cocktails selections, the staff is super, I was with my friends and had a excellent time.

Super lecker Gut angerichtet Und tolles ambiente.

Relaxt gutes Publikum und super Essen Jederzeit wieder

Thanks to Toan, an unforgettable dinner. Very good food and a lovely atmosphere, as well as an interesting and friendly wine list. 😘 Toan, despite a few gaps, not on his part, made the whole experience very enjoyable, balanced and rounded off with professional commitment, humility, and competence. Please order 1-2 decanters. And see you soon. Best regards, Anna & Simon

The food was always a dream, the atmosphere was cozy and pleasant, and the staff were always polite and accommodating!

Very pleasant atmosphere and lovely ambiance, very high-quality and delicious food. The lunch menu offers unbeatable value for money. The staff is very friendly and quick. I go there several times a week :)

Been there yesterday, The food was okay but just realised that they overcharged me. Be careful.

Very good Asian restaurant! Always happy to go back!👌

Sehr leckeres Essen. Nette Bedienung. Schönes Ambiente im Innenbereich

Highly recommended. We have the starter, four different main courses and two desserts. Everyone was very satisfied. Everything was very freshly prepared. Price-performance ratio is right.

A very good Vietnamese restaurant. I had the duch with red curry it was yummy

Very exquisite food in a beautiful atmosphere. Be sure to reserve in advance. Plan on spending at least €50 - €100 per person for a lovely evening.

Wie immer eine sehr gute Wahl. Die Sommerrollen sind besonders lecker.

Very good food. It's definitely worth it!

waren zum ersten Mal da und sehr zufrieden … aufmerksamer aber nicht aufdringlicher Service, gute Vorspeisen, optisch alles sehr schön angerichtet, ordentliche Portionen, waren alle zufrieden und kommen gerne wieder

The food was actually very tasty and the conditions were very nice. Unfortunately, I spent the entire night on the toilet and vomited 8 times because I got food poisoning from eating there. Watch out!

Sehr empfehlenswert! Sowohl der Service wie das Essen.

Had a red curry with chicken. It was pleasantly spicy and the chicken was grilled. It tasted very good, I will definitely try more here.

Extensive selection, carefully prepared Atmosphere to feel good, very pleasant audience Inexpensive! Front guest room a bit cool when the terrace is in use in the evening Tip: Roll-it-yourself to share, lots of fresh herbs, rich filling

Cute but fine restaurant and food. Anyone who is truly Asian will not be happy here. The European tongue, on the other hand, is simply covered in moss! The duck is perfectly crispy and the homemade lemonade is amazing! 10/10 recommendation

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere.

A culinary jewel in Munich - authentic Vietnamese cuisine at the highest level 🤩 My recent visit to Shimai was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I entered the restaurant I was greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere, a perfect mix of modern elegance and cozy charm. The staff was incredibly attentive, friendly and knowledgeable, gave excellent recommendations and ensured a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The food at Shimai is a revelation. Each dish is a testament to the art of Vietnamese cuisine, prepared with the freshest ingredients and a palpable passion for authentic flavors. We started with the summer rolls, which were light, refreshing and full of vibrant herbs. For mains, the spicy duck & prawn dish (if that's what you see in the picture!) showcased a wonderful balance of spices and textures. The presentation of each plate was also impeccable, a feast for the eyes and taste buds. In addition to the exquisite food and impeccable service, Shimai's attention to detail particularly stood out. The wine selection was carefully chosen and the overall atmosphere made for a perfect evening. It's clear that Shimai is more than just a restaurant; it is a place where culinary art and genuine hospitality come together to create an unforgettable dining experience. This restaurant truly deserves its 5-star rating and is a true highlight of the Munich dining scene.

Tolles Essen in einem sehr schönen Ambiente. Der Service ist sehr gut, die Mitarbeiter sehr freundlich und aufmerksam.

Unglaublich gutes asiatisches Essen! Wir haben den Abend sehr genossen: tolles Ambiente, grandioses Essen, freundlicher und speditiver Service! Top!

Wirklich fantastisches Essen, verbunden mit perfektem Service. Wahrlich eines der allerbesten asiatischen Restaurants in München. Besonders empfehlenswert sind auch die Cocktails.

A friendly welcome, reservations are recommended; the outdoor area is covered and heated. Our cocktails were delicious, and the food was excellent. We recommend the appetizer platter for two as a starter.

Absolute Empfehlung! Das Essen ist ausgezeichnet und ganz besonders lecker. Zum Mittagstisch ist das Preis-leistungs-Verhältnis sehr gut.

Very very delicious food (superb starters and delicious main course), very good cocktails and very good service. Totally recommended!!

Very good food, extremely friendly service. The staff is well-trained and understanding regarding allergies.

Wir hatten einen Tisch reserviert und haben auch sofort unseren Platz bekommen. Das Essen kam auch sehr zügig. Der Service war insgesamt sehr gut. Das Essen war exzellent. Wir hatten einen Sowing Jungblanc aus Südafrika, der auch sehr gut war. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt. Es war sehr voll und daher auch recht laut. Insgesamt sehr zu empfehlen. Wir kommen gerne wieder. 

Immer wieder ein absolutes Geschmackserlebnis bei tollem Service und Ambiente!

One of my absolute favorite restaurants in Munich!! My husband and I come here every time we visit our old homeland. The food is great, the staff is super friendly and attentive. I can only recommend this restaurant!

Wonderful restaurant will definitely eat there again. Everything was fine. Insanely great!

Essen wie immer super lecker, ganz frisch u heiß, netter aufmerksamer Service

Yes absolutely, everything was fine

Sehr gutes Essen, ordentliche und ausreichende Portionen, sehr schön angerichtet, sehr freundliches Personal.

Sehr gutes Essen, Preise haben ebenfalls angezogen. Wir saßen etwas beengt, war noch in Ordnung.

Die Gerichte sind ausgefallen, sehr lecker und ansprechend angerichtet. Wir hatten mehrere Vorspeisen und wurde positiv überrascht. Wirklich zu empfehlen.

Great food. The staff and ambience are really excellent. The restaurant really deserves the saying 'Viatnamise Fine Dining'. Prices are also normal.

Das Shimai überzeugt in allen Belangen. Wir fanden das Essen sehr gut.

So if you want to eat good, freshly prepared food, you've come to the right place. Great service, very nice staff but what is most important and best, super tasty and fresh food. Absolutely recommended!

Jedes Mal ein absoluter Genuss im Shimai zu essen. Ich probiere jedes Mal ein anderes Gericht und war bislang jedes Mal begeistert. Sehr empfehlenswert!

Wir waren am Valentinstag dort und es war wundervoll. Viele Gerichte sind Eigenkreationen die man zuvor nicht in der Art gegessen hat. Dadurch hebt sich das Restaurant extrem hervor.

Sehr schönes Restaurant mit wirklich leckerem Essen und einem sehr guten Service.
