Zum Goldenen Kalb in München

Just perfect all around...as always

Just perfectly cooked steak. Amazing atmosphere

Unfortunately we weren't very impressed on our last visit. The food was just okay, not commensurate with the price. The service was quite slow. It used to be a great steak restaurant, but unfortunately the quality has declined significantly in our opinion.

Excellent service, excellent meat, very good wine selection. A visit turns eating out into an experience. Recommended at any time. I'd love to come back. See you soon.

All in all a very nice evening! The quality of the meat was top, the service was super nice and the location right next to the Viktualienmarkt is perfect for a little digestive walk through the city center afterwards.

Excellent meat quality, cooked to perfection. The service is attentive and the atmosphere is pleasant. Highly recommended for steak lovers. I'd love to come back :)

A very nice atmosphere with great service and a very good selection of wines The standard steaks are very good but the special cuts are heavenly. I can only rave about this restaurant

True to the motto: I didn't climb to the top of the food chain to eat vegetables! Every person who feels connected to the flesh will find exactly what he/she wants in the golden calf without any ifs or buts. There is a charcoal grill. I was able to try things out and discover new things. Each bite was appropriately rounded off with a fine drop from the endless wine list, which was skilfully presented. My girlfriend also liked it, although she prefers eating grass to cow.

Rarely have I eaten such a good steak - best steak in town. It was just perfect 👌 everything was perfect! Great advice, great service, nice atmosphere. The side dishes of truffle fries and the leaf spinach are also simply a dream. I can only recommend the store 👍

Excellent food, perfect service. Always my pleasure

First time in a restaurant in this price category. I never thought I would rave so much about a restaurant. The food, whether the steak or the salad, was a real treat. Definitely coming back. A huge compliment to the whole team.

Best Steak House in Town. Service was amazing, These guys know how to steak! Side dishes were on Point 👍🏻 They have a huge wine selection too!

Very friendly service and excellent quality steaks. I will definitely come back!! 😃

The food and service were a dream. We would love to come back! We especially liked the old cow. We would love to come back because the service staff were very friendly and professional

The food was great. The steak was exactly as it should be and the waiter's wine recommendation was a perfect match. A successful evening through and through. Any time!

From the service to the food, a full 5 stars. See you soon👌🏾

The food was amazing, especially the steak. Thanks to Markus Kirchberger

Great meat selection! Rarely seen such professional service, HAT OFF!! The cocktails at the bar are also very tasty. I will definitely come by a second time ;-)

The food at “Zum Goldenen Kalb” was really very good, which is why I give it a relatively high rating despite everything. Unfortunately, the visit for my birthday was anything but relaxed. I wanted to spend a nice evening with my two sons and had made reservations for that, but the atmosphere in the restaurant was catastrophic. The noise level was not caused by loud music - this was normally playing in the background - but by the many conversations of the guests, which were extremely reverberant due to the lack of soundproofing measures and made the restaurant a real source of noise. Even ordering was a challenge as we literally had to shout at each other to understand each other. It was hardly possible to have a conversation at the table, which ruined the whole evening. From the main course onwards, the staff were hardly interested in us and concentrated entirely on a large group at the neighboring table. After 20-30 minutes of waiting without any eye contact, I finally asked for the bill myself because the desire for dessert or more drinks had long since disappeared. What was particularly disappointing was that despite having napkins in my ears, which I put in if necessary, an hour later I still had an unpleasant buzzing in my head, as if I had been in a club for hours. Normally I rarely write negative reviews and almost always leave tips, but not this time. When I paid the bill without a tip, the waitress asked irritably if I really didn't want to give anything. After I confirmed this in disappointment, all I got was a surprised look and no question as to whether something was wrong. I would have liked to explain to her why we were disappointed - although we would have had to go outside in the rain because we couldn't understand each other with the noise level in the restaurant. All in all, it's a real shame because the food here is excellent, but the lack of any soundproofing measures and the inattentive service completely ruined the evening. A visit to a restaurant should be a relaxing experience, but I probably won't come back here.

The food is of excellent quality. The meat is aged and prepared very well according to your choice. Crispy fries, harmonious spinach, crunchy salad. Unfortunately, the beer wasn't cold even upon request. The prices are in the very high segment.

let me start by saying i’ve never left a review for anything in my entire life. literally. the food was so awful and underwhelming. i will say, i had the best amaretto sour i’ve ever had here. but that doesn’t make up for the terrible cut of meat, and bland ass sides. no seasoning on anything. giving 2 stars purely for the amaretto

We were there early and had a very good meal! The staff was also very friendly and attentive. The tables are a little too close together for my taste.

Simply brilliant 🤩 super tasty and competent service and advice at the ripening cabinet. I can only recommend it!

Good food but extremely expensive

Nice atmosphere at the Viktualienmarkt! One of the best steak tartars in the city, that's all I had. Nice outside area

I just wanted to share my wonderful experience at Zum Goldenen Kalb during my recent visit, which was my second time there. The dining experience was perfect, with an ambiance that allowed for relaxation after a long working day. The staff were incredibly friendly, always smiling and attentive. The food was absolutely great, and the cleanliness of the restaurant was impressive. It's truly a quiet and nice place to unwind. I look forward to my next visit!

Service first class and authentic. Steak is always a question of philosophy. There are absolute premium cuts here at a premium price. I tried the “best” steak from the regular menu. It was definitely a pleasure. For the equivalent of just under EUR 200 per kilo, for me this is out of all proportion to the fact that you can get even grilled US Black Angus for a third of the price. I always notice one thing: if you're an ambitious griller yourself, you're not afraid to spend €400 + Hardly any steakhouse will make you grin with delight when you get your steak there. With your own experience, your demands increase. The restaurant can't do anything about that. But even a premium steak is no longer an absolute highlight. But what blew me away was the sweet potato puree. I've never had this better anywhere. Strangely, after I added some photos to my review, Google automatically blocked it. I can't explain it, you can only see pictures from the restaurant. Please review or approve manually

When it comes to meat quality, I've been spoiled by Brazil, Argentina and South Africa and can't keep up in any way in terms of price-performance ratio. What should be highlighted is the excellent service.

The food tasted excellent. I had the cheeseburger for around €30. The ratio of salad, fillet, etc. was perfect. The portion wasn't too big either. I think the price of €30 is justified. My friends had a steak. They were also very satisfied with it, even if around €130 is a bit much. I also thought the steak was very, very good. The waiters weren't pushy and they were very nice. We didn't have to wait too long for Klaus to get his food.

Service was phenomenal! Our waiter was fantastic and was very attention to detail. He took the time to explain every cut of meat and where it was from. The atmosphere was fun and very focused on being a beef restaurant. I thought the food was okay. Steaks didn't have much flavor, but this was due to the way it was grilled. I think the chef might have been short handed or was distracted. Still not bad and fun.

I lile this place, good foods with good services

We spontaneously chose this restaurant around Viktuelenmarkt. We found delicious but expensive.

Whenever we are in Munich, a visit is mandatory. The food is always a delight!

After a detailed consultation on We chose 990g Galsstätter T-Bone Steak. Excellent and trained service, the food was sensational and we found the atmosphere in the steakhouse really fitting. 10/10

Outstanding steak quality! The truffle fries is a MUST. By far the best steakhouse I have visited in Germany!! Super friendly staff with excellent recommendations and service!

Any time! Great evening with amazing meat, I was impressed by the meat on offer, but being able to choose your own meat was my absolute highlight. I also really like the rustic steakhouse style. All in all, absolutely recommended and as already said: again at any time!

We looked in by chance and everything convinced us! Super tasty steak and the meat selection had something for everyone. The service was courteous and very polite! We will be back!

Best service, the staff was very friendly and attentive. Enjoyed the presentation of the meat at the fridge. The way we received our order (the waiter cut our meat at our table) felt very personal. I will be returning!

If you're looking for a really good steak restaurant that exceeds your expectations, then the golden calf is the place to be. One of the best steaks I've ever had. The service is very attentive. We'll be back 😊

Great place if you are looking for a good steak in Munich.

I've been to many steakhouses in Munich, but the steak here was worlds better! I haven't been able to eat such a soft and juicy cow for a really long time.

The best steak I've had so far. Thanks to the good advice from the great team, we were able to choose steaks directly from the maturing cabinet. The meat was perfect and tasted at such a high level that the price justifies it. Quality is still very important here. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very nice :)

Had a very nice evening, great atmosphere and an extremely nice team! The fillet piece was excellent and a great red wine with it. We'll definitely be back soon

As a big meat lover, a visit to Goldener Kalb is a must in Munich. Very nice staff and owners who know good meat. Always happy to come back!

The steaks are very nice. The sides are delicious, specially the mac and cheese. The truffle fries are to die for. If you need to uplift your spirit with a good stake, this is the place to go. Go for the T-bone, mac & cheese and truffle fries with a good glass of wine. Cocktails are really good as well.

Perfect. We would be happy to come back. I think the daily cuts to choose from are very good

On my recent visit to Munich, I was fortunate enough to discover a restaurant that serves possibly the best meat I have ever tasted. The quality of the meat was exceptional, making each bite a true culinary experience. Furthermore, the atmosphere and service in the restaurant were impeccable, perfectly complementing the dining experience. Although the restaurant is in a higher price range, the value of the experience fully makes up for it. It is definitely a place I would recommend for a special occasion or to treat yourself well deserved.

THE BEST STEAK RESTAURANT IN MUNICH ❤️❤️❤️❤️🤎🤎🤎🤎💚💚💚💚🧡🧡🧡🧡💜💜💜💜💛💛💛💛💛💙 💙💙💙💙🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵

Very good steakhouse with great quality and good advice on meat and wine. I received very friendly and courteous service. The online booking worked without any problems. There was nothing to complain about, on the contrary I can warmly recommend this house.

Everything is top and every time you visit! Many thanks to the great service team: Michi, Demi & Sam. For us the best restaurant in Munich.

Good quality meat, good side dishes, but in my opinion too “standard” for the price, so nothing special.

Best meat in Munich. Great ambience, top service.

Very great atmosphere and very nice staff

Very tasty food with fantastic service! It definitely helps and has an exclusive price ratio

I won't forget my evening here in a hurry. I was taken here for my birthday a wonderful experience from start to finish. Very helpful and friendly staff. The steaks were cooked to perfection and the cocktails were heavenly.

The food is very expensive but the stakes are very good. I would have liked the service to be a little faster, we had to wait a long time. I can still recommend it.

A really successful concept with a selection of steaks in the maturing cabinet and excellent advice. A paradise for steak lovers.

On the occasion of our wedding anniversary, I took my wife out to spend a cozy evening. As soon as we entered the restaurant, Michael greeted us very friendly and escorted us to our table. Here we were asked if we would like a bottle of water, which we welcomed as we also planned to drink wine. When the water was served we were asked if we would like an aperitif, we chose a cremant. When Michael handed us the menu, he pointed out that in a few minutes he would accompany us to the aging room, a steak lover's dream. This is where his concentrated expertise came to the fore as he told us the peculiarities of each type of cattle. The only thing missing was that he told us the names of the cattle. As a starter we ordered tuna tartare, which was cut into small cubes and seasoned perfectly, and a Caesar salad, which was also seasoned perfectly. The steaks, rib eye from the old cow and beef fillet from Australian Black Angus, were served on a board, carved and arranged on plates with great attention to detail. When it comes to the steaks, it should be mentioned that they caused a taste explosion in the mouth. To accompany the meal, we ordered a Conte Giangirolamo from Apulia, whose flavors went perfectly with the steak. The ambience of the restaurant is reminiscent of a typical American steakhouse, which also fits perfectly with the choice of food. If you want to spend a nice evening with high quality food, especially steaks, this is the right place for you. Many thanks again to Michael, who allowed us to enjoy a wonderful and unforgettable evening with his host qualities and concentrated competence. Michael gave us the complete feel-good factor. We will definitely come back and hope for table 42.

Rather bad experience. We were shown our table and then told: the wardrobe for our jackets is at the other end of the restaurant. Before being given a menu we were asked about aperitivo, after declining water was served, but we were not asked again about other drinks. We were not shown the meats, and had to look at it ourselves. Took the RibEye, but for 60€ without any sides, it was definitely not worth the price.

Waited 15 minutes for a “hello” and the menu. A hair in the lettuce, complained, the answer came: “sorry, we can don't explain this to us. Everyone in the kitchen has short hair.” Ordered baked potato, didn't come, but it was on the bill. Burger tastes like NOTHING. The waiter neither asked if it was tasty nor did he come up with the idea of ​​“compensating” with at least one espresso. A pity! Not what it used to be.

A relaxed evening with very good and attentive service.

We entered the restaurant, they offered us a table, but then no one came to ask what we wanted to drink or just bring the menu. We waited more than 30 minutes and no one came. We got up and left. We were disappointed.

Excellent food, great selection, very friendly staff, nice atmosphere - not "pretentious"

Very nice waitresses, great food

Super nice atmosphere, very nice and extremely knowledgeable service staff. The choice of meat in the maturing cabinet was explained to us in detail and we were given very good advice. Both were a culinary delight!!! We'd love to come back!

Had dinner here for the first time with my wife today. Ordered 2 x 200 gram stakes with side dishes, everything was very tasty. Priced in the upper segment, but they are welcome.

Perfect all around, you also feel like staying seated longer.

Top. If you love good fillet or steak, this is the place for you. Very good advice when choosing. And of course a good selection of cocktails.

Very nice restaurant and apart from the burgers, the food was also above average. Unfortunately, my burger was significantly bloodier than ordered and cold from the first bite. At just under €30, that really shouldn't be the case

Much too expensive for what we got on our plates!! A green salad for €9.50 and a mini potato gratin for €6, a 75 cl bottle of water for €7.90 as soon as you sit at the table!! I'm not sure if this is a German custom!!

The steak was very good but I’ve also had better steak for less money IN LONDON!!! Not to mention the staff, who were very friendly, but a bit useless. I had to ask for a menu. Then separately ask for a wine menu. Then ask again if we could have some water. Not worth it, unfortunately. I feel bad for the waiters who were good. One customer came in and stormed off after not being given a menu after a while - I feel for him - I wish we’d done the same and gone elsewhere.

Simply outstanding!!! Top staff, great chef and the entire food is world class. Warmest regards, Herbert Bretz Gainer

Table reservation at 8 p.m. It took 1 hour until we were allowed to go to the ripening room to choose our meat. There are pre-cut pieces you can choose from. You can't say I'd like 250 grams of this and that, just what's in it. So there is little choice in the evening at 9 p.m. 300 grams of meat (old cow) for 140€. Truffle fries for €20, which was enough for two people. The food and drinks tasted excellent. However, the water bottles on the table were warm. It was generally very warm in the restaurant. Another annoying thing was that we were charged for a whole bottle of wine which we tried and we didn't like it. Overall, very tasty if you can afford it and want to. I won't anymore.

Amazing place with incredible food! The waiters are very friendly and professional.

Good steak restaurant, prices a bit high in my opinion

Enjoyed a good food. The meat was wonderful and very good quality. Side dishes good and different taste. I can highly recommend this restaurant.

Ein brutales per du schon in die ersten Sekunden, erschreckend! Das Essen mittelmäßig, bei weitem nicht so fantastisch wie in Werbung verkauft. Sehr laute Bedienung, wir hatten konstant das Eindruck, dass wir angeschrien werden. Creme brulee aber überdurchschnittlich lecker! Gesamt 6/10 mit großzügige Wille

Wer gutes Fleisch essen will. Damit ist alles gesagt. Top und die erste Adresse in München.

The ambience is good, obviously getting a bit noisy on a Saturday night. The food is excellent, from the beef or tuna tartar (super fresh and well seasoned) to the steaks. We had fresh cuts, but the dry aged steaks look very inviting! The side portions are quite generous, so you won’t leave the restaurant hungry! ;-) Great choice for steaks in Munich!

Nach längerer Zeit Mal wieder ausprobiert. Der Service war freundlich und aufmerksam und obwohl wir nur Wasser geordert hatten, wollte uns Niemand zu etwas anderem überreden. Die Steaks-Auswahl war sehr gut und auch dort hat die Servicekraft uns gut beraten. Die Steaks waren wie bestellt medium- rare und von ausgezeichneter Qualität. Alles perfekt.

War mal besser, der eisbein oder Eiswein ist Wahnsinn kostet aber knapp 200 aber es lohnt sich

Super Restaurant mit sehr netten Mitarbeitern und ausgezeichneten Steaks. Etwas zu teuer, aber insgesamt lohnt es sich.

The food was good but for that price i have find better taste. On the other hand the personnel are kind and amazing. With a lot of good vibes. Definitely will go again because is rate to find in Germany good service.

I started with the Beef Tea, a clear and well flavoured Consommé. I followed with a dry aged fillet; this had an intense flavour and was cooked perfectly. What wasn't so good was the service, the servers were very polite, but the service was slow and it took us a very long time to get anyone's attention. This also unfortunately also made the place feel like it was lacking energy. The steak here is exceptional. It's just a shame that the rest of the experience didn't quite match. That said, I will go again. Maybe they were just having a sub-par night.

Un lugar excelente para los amantes de la carne (steaks). Fantásticos cortes de carne madurada….

Sehr kompetenter und freundlicher Mitarbeiter hat uns bedient. Essen ist nicht günstig aber sehr lecker. Kommen gerne wieder.

A classic steak experience with dry age charcoal grilled steak and several types of artisinal gins and wines . The inside has a classic American steakhouse vibe and you tour the dry age fridge to pick your cut .

비싼데 그만한 값어치를 함. 드라이에이징한 독일 소를 먹어볼 수 있음. 네그로니 맛있음

High-end Preis, der aber absolut nicht zum Service und zur Menüqualität passt. Das Essen war ok, aber absolut nichts besonderes, teilweise versalzen, Fleisch so weit weg von der bestellten Garstufe (sie sind doch genau auf DAS spezialisiert ...), Essen serviert wie im Europapark-Imbiss, und der Service war flapsig und langsam, keine Spur von Aufmerksamkeit. Witzig ist auch die kleinliche Bepreisung: bei einem Hauptgang dieser Preiskategorie (EUR 54) wird die Beilage (6,50) und die Sauce (3,50) extra berechnet (und ich meine damit nicht die 2. oder 3. Beilage...). Aber der Abschuss war der Wein: wir haben offenen Rot- und Weisswein bestellt, jeweils ein Glas, ok-Qualität (Merlot, etc) und auf der Endrechnung gesehen, dass jedes Glas (2dl) €30 gekostet hat. Ich zahle wirklich gern für guten Wein, aber €30 pro Glas für diesen Wein kann man nicht mal mehr als überteuert bezeichnen. Fazit: Schade, aber never again, totaler Rip-off, Touri-Falle, nichts Spezielles für einen viel zu hohen Premiumpreis, da gibt's wirklich sinnvollere Adressen.

Für mich DAS Steakhouse schlechthin in München! Ein kulinarisches Erlebnis vom Feinsten, es beginnt bei der spektakulären Auswahl des eigenen Fleischstücks vor dem verglasten Kühlschrank. Dazu eine hervorragende, jederzeit kompetente aber unaufdringliche Betreuung. Auf jeden Fall einen Tipp, rechtzeitig vorher reservieren!

Wir haben hier Sehr lecker und abwechslungsreiches zu Abend gegessen,in gemütlichen Ambiente . Die liebevoll gestaltete Einrichtung lädt zum Wohlfühlen und Verweilen ein. Netter und zuvorkommender Service. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Ein unvergessliches Erlebnis! Herzlichen Dank an alle Mitarbeiter! Trotz extremer Hitze gaben alle ihr bestes. Essen einfach ein Traum. Getränke top. Sehr gemütliches Lokal, dass einen zu längerem Verweilen animiert. Kann ich wärmstens empfehlen! 😊 👍 👌

Ich war vergangenes WE in einer Gruppe da. Wie immer war alles zu meiner vollsten Zufriedenheit. Wir hatten gemischte Vorspeisen für alle, die sehr lecker waren , vor allem das Tatar. Hauptgang hatte jeder Steak aus der Vitrine, mein Steak 370gr auf den Punkt 👌🏻 Beilage könnte etwas mehr Pfiff haben (Spinat). Nachspeise war auch top. Die Bedienung war obendrein mehr als aufmerksam. Natürlich komme ich wieder.

Wir haben hier Geburtstag gefeiert und es war ein wirklich durchweg gelungener Abend. Service war sehr aufmerksam und überaus freundlich und Essen waren hervorragend. Fleisch hatte super Qualität und Drinks waren toll. Wir kommen definitiv wieder.

Ausgezeichnetes Steakhouse mit sehr aufmerksamer, netter und zuvorkommender Bedienung, die weibliche sowie auch männliche Bedienung sind sehr professionell und ihre Wein und Essensempfehlungen waren bis anhin immer hervorragend. Wir werden definitiv wieder kommen

Völlig überteuert, keine gute Klientel. Früher hochpreisig, aber akzeptabel. Damit einen Fan verloren.

Lecker und freundlich. Bier schmeckt faszinierend dort!

They offer steaks in a relaxed ambience.

Einfach super ! Kellnerin S. super sympathisch und nett .

Danke euch für ein fabelhaftes Geburtstagsdinner :-) alle Speisen waren top zubereitet und die Beratung und der Service einfach grandios!
