Xaver's in München

You can eat authentic Bavarian food. I think reservations are essential, the atmosphere is nice and the servers are friendly. As a woman, the amount of regular-sized food was a bit large. I think the average size is appropriate for men. The food was delicious, but I think it's okay for a one-time visit.

The quality of the ingredients for the dishes ordered was good, but there is still a lot of room for improvement in the preparation. Hardly any seasoning may seem more in keeping with a general taste, not ours. We cook ourselves often and with the best ingredients. A duck should be browned all over, a basic principle of duck preparation. Roasted ingredients, spices, pepper and salt would make a roast pork a real pleasure. Perhaps these comments can serve as inspiration.

Loud and uncomfortable. Waited 1 hour for food. Wiener Schnitzel hard, breading peeled off, fried potatoes swimming in oil, inedible! Service friendly though.

Very good food paired with good service. No complaints.

Excellent meals with pure organic products are offered here. Be sure to try the tartare as a starter and order the divine Kaiserschmarren for desert (one portion is easily enough for 2 people)

Nice place. Attentive staff. Unfortunately… mediocre food at quite high prices. Even the Kaiserschmarrn was bland and unimaginative. There were four of us and we only ate cheaper main courses and drank beer or spritzer. The bill for this… 200 euros. Others can do it better!

Good address for delicious hearty food! Super nice people! However: the prices are a bit excessive!

Xaver's is really the best place for me when I want good Bavarian cuisine. And for me it's just another really great aspect that I get the meat from an organic farm. I have never had better Kaiserschmarrn. And such friendly people. Top.

Augustiner beer, brutal food, brutal service. End quote, goose pants.

Everything was great, relaxed atmosphere

Traditional tavern atmosphere with many niches where you can sit comfortably. The service is quick and friendly. The food is not cheap, but ok. My burger was ordered medium, but came well done. But the meat used was high quality.

Matti is the best. Give this man a raise. I’ll come back just bc of the service I received

Food was super tasty and beautifully prepared. Service really great!

An experience with Sven as the waiter! The finest deer carpaccio and Viennese schnitzel with a sensational wine recommendation from Lehner from the Palatinate!

Food is fine, the service too, they are friendly. I find the options in the menu a bit limited. Prices are not low but portions are big.

Beautiful classic style beer hall: wood is predominant and makes you feel at home. The menu is typical Bavarian but executed with great care and quality. The wine list is excellent, out of the ordinary I would say. Good service.

Great modern/traditional Bavarian cuisine and atmosphere. Staff are fun and friendly which add to this places appeal! Definitely worth visiting this place.

A very nice restaurant. Unfortunately very, very long waiting times for the first order and then for food 52 minutes. Second drinks with the meal were not asked for at all, not even dessert, schnapps or coffee. There is still room for improvement

The food is ok, but it takes a long time. Very beautiful restaurant

We heard about Xaver’s directly from the owner while visiting Oktoberfest and he invited us to come by. It did not disappoint! We ate very early because the only reservation time online was 5pm but there were several walk ups during our hour with them. You should get reservations for anything later though. This is classic German food with some twists. The beef tarter was the best we had in Munich This was followed by the veal in a sauce with carrots and peas and some amazing au grater potato’s. . The veal was slightly dry, but slicing it thin, swirling in the sauce and then adding a potato to the bite made it amazing and we literally mopped the plate clean with our bread. Our waiter was delightful and hats of to Jacob the owner. My only negative really was the location is just “fine” from an ambiance point of view and they do allow dogs on the outside patio, which I’m normally fine with but last night the furry dinner companion was an annoying yapper :)

Very good Bavarian restaurant, very friendly and friendly waiters. I recommend, local and welcoming customers

Wir hatten bereits bei der Reservierung schriftlich angegeben, dass wir mit einem Kinderwagen kommen würden. Leider wurden wir an einen Tisch gesetzt, der keinen Platz dafür bot und inmitten des Restaurants stand, so dass sich ständig Personen am Kinderwagen und uns vorbeidrückten, keinesfalls eine angenehme Atmosphäre in der man lange verweilen möchte. Als wir noch ein paar Minuten auf einen Freund warteten und erst einmal nur Wasser bestellt hatten, wurden wir mehrmals genervt von Kellnerinnen angesprochen, von denen uns eine unhöflich fragte ob wir vor haben würden mehr als Wasser zu bestellen. Der Service war anschließend miserabel. Nachdem wir das Essen bestellt hatten erhielten wir überhaupt keinen Service mehr. Das Essen war teilweise gut, teilweise nicht gut (u.a. den Kaiserschmarrn können wir nicht empfehlen, der Salat mit Hirse war in Ordnung). Wir werden aufgrund des mangelhaften Services nicht wieder kommen. Einen Pluspunkt gibt es für den Wickeltisch auf der Damentoilette und die dort bereitgestellten Windeln.

Not only were we contacted by phone before the day of our reservation to say that we only had the table available for two hours, we were also informed again when we arrived in the second set that we would have to leave the table at 8 p.m have to leave at least two more times during the evening. So you don't really feel wanted as a guest. In addition, there were two stalks in my side salad, which doesn't exactly reflect careful preparation of the meal. Unfortunately I can't recommend this restaurant.

Food great - service great. We were looked after by Felix - very, very friendly and attentive.

I was one of the first customers at Xaver`s and have always felt comfortable. Service and ambience are top. But actually all Augustiner restaurants have this to offer. But there's a huge problem with the food: the menu doesn't change a bit: roast pork, fried chicken, tartare, salad, Kaiserschmarrn, ... Prices are 25% higher than other Augustiner restaurants. I then decided on the dish of the day to have a little variety: Käsekrainer with potato salad. I stupidly didn't ask about the price. Judge for yourself / picture attached / € 17.50. And the wooden barrel beer comes just before 8 with 15 liters. I'll be happy to come back once you've returned to the Augustinian ideals.

Delicious food, cozy atmosphere.

We were very happy with the food at Xaver’s. The service was quick and friendly. The food tasted good and was plentiful. Great praise for the fact that a lot of it is organic, so the prices are completely reasonable.

Everything was nice but also nothing super special.

The food and ambience were OK, the menu balanced. The service staff seemed poorly organized and not customer focused. Despite several small faux pas (not bringing a card or taking an order, forgetting some of the drinks, etc.), each time an indifferent reaction followed instead of a short apology. It's a shame that the service drags down the overall experience.

Das Xaver liegt unweit vom Marienplatz, Plätze außen sind ausreichend und gut im Schatten ! Essen ist nicht günstigen aber gut ! Tageskarte spareribs waren top aber etwas spärlich.

Super nice restaurant, central. Top team, good food. Highly recommended. Thank you 🤩

Super friendly, quickly found a place and above all totally delicious & fair prices 💫

Delicious meal with pleasant company

We were here for a business lunch. The atmosphere is very nice, but at first I had long black hair in my salad - this was only commented on with an "oh". The salad was then replaced upon request but there was no gesture of apology. In addition, the snack board only comes with a small slice of bread (in 2 halves), which of course is not enough for sausage, cheese, obazda, tartare, etc.: so we ordered 2 more bread baskets. The surprise on the bill was that each bread basket (without saying this when ordering) costs €2.50 extra. For me it's just a ploy to make more profit. The focus here is on maximizing sales and not on the guests, so unfortunately no recommendation.

Sehr sehr nett! Absolute Empfehlung, Essen und Service top. Für die Lage sind auch die Preise akzeptabel. Kaiserschmarren sensationell.

Nice outdoor area Inside, cozy, modern Bavarian and stylish Matjes a pleasure Fish could have been a little more for the price

Mega...! Top service, very fine beer from wooden barrels and a super relaxed atmosphere. If the food tastes good, what more could you want?!?

Not traditional German food but very tasty, great service and nice seating (both interior and outdoor). Portion is actually very unGerman - meaning quite small - and pricy as well.

Food was more or less okay, nothing that blew you away.

Price-performance ratio is not right. Prices too high even for us as Munich residents. For a salad (with chicken) that costs €24, an extra €3 for 3 mini pieces of bread is simply cheeky!

we were there on August 3rd. there. Not right at lunchtime. Many tables were filled. Nobody made us aware of the long waiting times. In the end we waited an hour for our food. (Schnitzel and meat patties with potato salad) ... in my opinion it's a no-go not to point this out to customers. But food was good.

Very nice restaurant, traditional Bavarian food, nice atmosphere. It was very good.

Food excellent & most of it is organic and local. Relatively pricy for the portions. Service however is quiet unfriendly.

Unfortunately I have to make a negative comment here. We sat down at one of the many free tables and were sent away again, apparently it was reserved... The neighboring table had already complained that they had been waiting for their order for 50 minutes. A pity

I can't really rank this place since we were there on a street event (organized by them). There was a Bavarian band playing, and the atmosphere was great. The staff was nice and cheerful. The food offered for the occasion was limited to a couple of choices, and the quality was really mediocre.

Great food. We really enjoyed the roast beef. The service was friendly and quick. Unfortunately the portion was a bit manageable. For 31 euros I expect a meal that will fill me up.

I love this place. It’s a youth / modern uplift of traditional Bavarian/Munich bar & restaurant. The staff is very qualified , friendly and quick. The food is great and the beers are always cold & fresh, especially when they are served from the wooden barrel “Holzfass”. A must visit in Munich with great outdoor spaces and nicely decorated interior spaces.

If it weren’t for Xaver’s, the neighborhood would be missing something. It was a summer festival again and, as always, there was a wonderful atmosphere.

Very good Bavarian food, good value, excellent service! In an amazing, cool neighbourhood of munich.

This is a fantastic spot for enjoying authentic Bavarian dishes and German beer. I had a great time for lunch there, enjoying the cozy, traditional atmosphere. I am always a fan of the German beer! If you're looking to experience Bavarian cuisine and enjoy some quality beer, you should check out this place!

Very tasty food, fast and friendly service! We ordered a Kaiserschmarren in advance as dessert 45 minutes after the main course! This request was implemented optimally by waiter Felix! The pictures speak for themselves👍🏼 We'd love to come back! Reservation is an advantage!

Tartar and schnitzel from another star. Highly Recommended. Unfortunately there were some problems with the service on the second visit. "Forgot" reservation, waiter inattentive.

Very good atmosphere at Xaver’s. The waitresses are nice and the food is also delicious. Personally, I think the portions and price are a bit high.

Very nice traditional Munich restaurant. Small but nice menu. Gladly again

Despite the admission stop, they made everything possible. To organize a great table for us. We only had to wait a short time and they brought us an ice cream chilled Augustiner! Splendid!

Nice setting on a street corner. Ample outside seating. Friendly service. We had „Wiener Schnitzel“ which was incredibly thin (about a millimeter“) and overpriced at € 33. (yes, it’s supposed to be thin, but this felt like a rip-off). Similarly, the fried chicken thighs came in a thick batter crust with little meat. Less expensive at € 20. Nice for drinks. Avoid the food.

Very attentive service in a traditional outfit! Plus an appealing mix of rustic tavern charm and modern colors/materials. Not as touristy as the central inns. The locals like to go here. And rightly so! The food and drink are also delicious and plentiful. Happy to come back on your next visit to Munich!

Super friendly and incredibly tasty!! Gladly again!!

Super delicious food, Great beer from a wooden barrel

Wasn't overly impressed wih the food offered. Wasn't bad just average.

Absolutely okay but no more! I ordered a beef tartare as a starter, which was perfectly acceptable. I chose the Roste Beef as my main course. It was nicely presented, but more like a salad with roast beef! The herb salad was mentioned last on the menu when describing the dish, so I expected a small side salad. However, 3/4 of my plate was pure salad, which wasn't really tasty. In summary, however, I have to say that the service gets 5 stars from me! Very attentive and polite. The ambience is exactly what you expect. The food wasn't a highlight, so unfortunately I only gave it 3 stars.

One of Munich‘s most „modern & traditional“ Bavarian restaurants. Go for a Schnitzel or a cold beer from the wooden barrel. Finish up with a Mousse au Chocolate. Plus: most friendly people on town!

Xaver is a clean German pub located well away from the tourist masses of Marienplatz, and it was conveniently a 5 minute walk from my hotel. Xavar serves up traditional and modern German fare...elevated to the next level. In a city where you can get a German sausage just about anywhere, its nice to have something..."nicer". Corn & Cauliflower Foam Soup...whoa! Smooth, creamy, corny, and creative. And healthy? Roasted Catfish...wow! Roasted perfectly and spiced heavenly. Wiener Schnitzel...you can find this everywhere in Munich, but Xavar's deep fried breading has some extra magic to it...traditional and delicious. Service was typical genuine German, not fake friendly American, efficient and cordial. If you're in the area, hungry, and sick of tourist food, come to Xaver's, we were also the only tourists here. Prost!

Unfortunately everything was already occupied so we had to sit at a round table with strange people. Food was ok, beer a reasonable price.

Top service and excellent schnitzel and cheese spaetzle. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ambience and service good. Unfortunately, the food was average at best and significantly too expensive. One piece of roast pork was great, the other was completely tough, the sauce was very watery and the dumplings had no butter crumbs. 24h Sous Vide Spare Rips are not at all tender, but firm to the bite and not very seasoned. Standard frozen fries portion 7€

Very good restaurant Was there a total of three evenings and felt very comfortable every time. The staff was very accommodating and took good care of you despite the high volume. The food was very tasty and many of the dishes were organic. Very nicely prepared food The ambience is very pleasant, we attach great importance to getting together at “group tables”

Unfortunately, the restaurant has deteriorated greatly - service and food used to be great, but now they are mediocre and far too expensive. 6 out of 7 dishes were not as expected (beef tartar served without capers because they were out, snack plate was smaller than usual, Kaiserschmarrn was smaller than usual, juice from the roast pork was very watery). We won't come anymore!

My favorite restaurant in Munich for over 6 years and they always manage to go one better! New card for a few days: Char Matjes is simply mega!

Very friendly and courteous staff, delicious food!

Great atmosphere and very courteous staff. Even though it was really full, everyone did everything possible to offer us a place. Thank you for the wonderful evening.

Best schnitzel in town. A little more expensive but definitely worth the money :)

Small but really nice menu, good selection of drinks. Meat, eggs and wine are organic. Very friendly staff. I would very much like to recommend it.

Super nice little brewery. A little away from the hustle and bustle of the city center. Service top. If I'm in Munich again, I'll go there again.

Very tasty regional food. Very friendly service.

Service very friendly and competent. All of our dishes were excellent. We will definitely come back very soon!!👌👏

Incredibly beautiful inn where you immediately feel at home. Had snack plates, a dream, and a cold beer with it. What more do you want?

Great Bavarian cuisine at a fair price. We'd love to come back.

Gravy was bland and watery. The dumpling is not worth it at all. I wouldn't have identified it as a dumpling if I had only had the taste test. The service was good and friendly.

It was very tasty and freshly prepared. Would come again :)

Spontaneously got a seat and ate well

Thanks to the warm and subtle lighting, Xaver's is cozy and homely despite the chic furnishings. The pickled char with asparagus vinaigrette was - as it should be - served lukewarm. Plenty of fresh dill, chervil and parsley provided a suitable taste variety. The tender pork belly came to the table with a perfect gravy and a potato dumpling. Since the cabbage with bacon was out, a salad was served instead, which suited me. The mousse au chocolate was transferred from the mixing bowl to the dessert plate at the table - an original idea! Apart from the crumbled chocolate crumbles, the mousse was purist, which didn't diminish the enjoyment. Rather firm and not too sweet, this dessert tasted excellent to me! The service staff in stylish costumes were very attentive and quick without “bringing out the peace”. And the young blonde man who took my order and served me the food always had a smile on his face and, with this and his caring manner, helped me feel extremely comfortable even without company. The fact that he used my first name was fitting for the Bavarian inn and made me feel even more welcome. I will definitely come here again!

We entered because of the atmosphere and we loved it. Very good food and great service. If you like sweet, order the chocolate mousse. It has surprised us.

Wir sind auf Empfehlung zum Xavers gekommen mit vorheriger Tischreservierung, ohne Reservierung wohl eher schwierig einen Platz zu bekommen. Personal war überaus freundlich, authentisch, aufmerksam und flott. Küche auf hohem Niveau, kleine Karte mit ausgewählten Klassikern, top. Wiener Schnitzel war sehr lecker, Tatar vorab ebenfalls sehr gut. Eher junges, einheimisches Publikum, wenige Touristen. Nach 90 Minuten mussten wir den Tisch freimachen für die nächsten Gäste, also nicht geeignet wenn man nach dem Essen noch länger zum Trinken sitzen bleiben möchte. Fazit: Wir kommen gerne wieder, Empfehlung!

Had already reserved about 1 month ago. A day before the appointment we were informed that we only had time from 1700 - 1900, apparently reservations have recently only been made for 2 hours. None of the 5 dishes we ordered were adequate for the price/performance, which is a real shame, especially because of the positive reviews. When asked, it was stated that the wooden barrel was tapped around 1800. When we had to leave the restaurant around 1900, it still hadn't been tapped. Really very unprofessional! The only positive thing we noticed was the service. Once and never again, there are definitely better Gustl establishments.

Dinner for two, the welcome was quick and friendly. We ate well for a fair price. The place remains very (too?) noisy at dinner time.

I haven't experienced such good and very courteous service in a long time! Super friendly & nice! Thanks! Big compliment! The food was very tasty, great quality! We'd love to come back.

Worst pub I've been to in a long time. Service was really slow, we waited 30 minutes until the menu finally came. Afterwards we waited a very long time to order drinks. Food is far too expensive, not justified even for Munich prices for what you get. There wasn't even a slice of bread with the snack board. You had to order and pay for everything separately. Never again!

Food and service were top. Beef tartare - world class. Thanks! Unfortunately, pictures of the main course were forgotten 😅

the food was VERY good and the service team is casual and competent.

Favorite downtown restaurants. Very nice and well-kept atmosphere, the food is excellent and the service cannot be topped. We especially took Joana and Lorenz very close to our hearts. When we last made a reservation, two wine glasses and our favorite wine and cooler were already waiting for us at the table. Simply great, you find that very rarely. Keep it up, you're awesome 😍

Good service and the food is also great

We were warmly welcomed and got a table with a short (5 minute) wait. The restaurant is very attractively furnished and promises more than just an ordinary pub. There is nothing wrong with the cleanliness. You can also host smaller celebrations here, even if you're not a fan of traditional Bavarian restaurants. There is more of a local audience represented. The beer was clearly fresh from the tap and served within a very short time. Of the 6 beers, 3 beers were underserved. Overall, the service was very courteous and, upon request, a main course could be converted into a starter portion. The pearl barley risotto with wild garlic was just as tasty as it sounds. The tartare with freshly grated horseradish was an exciting option. Only the toast was fried in strange-tasting fat. The Kaiserschmarrn impressed with its consistency and subtle sweetness. A little vanilla would have been the icing on the cake for our taste.

Boarisch Guad. Top service, friendly and great food. Beverages? Augustinian, nothing more is possible.

Great food (also vegan) and highly motivated service. Actually 6 out of 5 stars!

My companion and I both chose the salad with goat cheese. While my companion got a decent goat cheese thaler, I only found a few scraps on my plate. When I asked the waiter about it, my request was dismissed with shocking indifference. He claimed that it was normal for the dish to be served sometimes this way and sometimes that way. Supposedly we had the same amount and everything would fit. I was very disappointed by the waiter's indifference and the uneven portioning. Given this experience, I will not go to “Xaver’s” again. Obviously you can't be sure whether you're getting the "good" or the "bad" dish that day.

One of the best inns in Munich! Food, service, atmosphere - world class 🍻

Really a fresh, smart, relaxed pub. Dedicated landlords and employees. Order an appetizer (tartar!)! Then the wait for the main course won't be that long.. =:) Addendum: had the honor of experiencing the “trainee evening”. RESPECT!! To the trainees. And the innkeepers for their commitment to the future of gastronomy.

Disgraceful treatment of regular guests. We go here regularly to eat and play cards. Same this Friday. After 2 hours we were escorted out, even though we had proven to have reserved the evening. That has never been the case before. But the store doesn't need it. But neither will we and we will never come back. The loss is manageable, as both the kitchen and service have declined sharply recently. Still a shame.

I followed an influencer's advice and haven't regretted it. Great cuisine, super nice and professional service, price absolutely reasonable. Lovely again!
