Spatenhaus at the opera

We celebrated New Year’s at this restaurant, and it was an unforgettable experience. The menu was exquisite, showcasing a perfect balance of creativity and flavor—every dish was a delight. What truly elevated the evening was the exceptional service. Our waiter was absolutely wonderful, making us feel right at home while maintaining the elegance of a fine dining experience. They checked in on us regularly to ensure we were comfortable, which added a personal touch that we deeply appreciated. It’s also worth noting that the restaurant is pet-friendly, which made it possible for us to include our furry companion in the celebration. This level of inclusivity is rare in fine dining, and it speaks volumes about the restaurant’s commitment to hospitality. If you’re looking for a place that combines culinary artistry with warm and attentive service, this is it. Highly recommended!

The best restaurant in Munchen if you ask me. Food is very tasty and portions are more than enough for one person. Service was excellent especially waiter from Slovenia and Italy. Whole ambient was also very nice because it's literally in the city center. I recommend it to everyone.

The classic Munich experience. Spatenhaus an der Oper offers an authentic Bavarian dining experience with exceptional food, a welcoming atmosphere, and attentive service. Unlike the more touristy Hofbräuhaus, this spot feels refined yet approachable, making it a favorite among locals and visitors seeking quality over hype. The menu features delicious traditional dishes, perfectly complemented by an impressive beer selection, including Spaten brews and other local favorites. Its prime location near the opera house adds to its charm, making it a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy great food, outstanding service, and a true taste of Bavaria.

Great beer, I can't really rate the food. Staff is too busy, but friendly enough. Worth to try.

food, ambience, location are wonderful. Service was outstanding. Our lady waitress was so attentive, so professional, she noticed the smallest things on table and softly proactively offered either this or that. For Service I can put 10 stars. Thank you! It was a perfect farewell dinner in Munich. Next time gladly again.

Less rowdy than the hofbrauhaus serving decent Bavarian staples. Don’t expect nuanced flavors. Protein, starch, wilted veg and salty brown sauce. Service is friendly the inside has plenty of open seating and intimate cubby holes. Have had meals here over many years and it’s a solid choice. The

Pretty good Food, service was just alright. Ordered a soft drink during the meal. Twice. Finished the meal, then they ask if did you still want that drink. Ummmm no thanks though 😎 a little too pricey for what you get and the service comparing with other places in Munich.

Do not recommend going here - bad quality of food, bad hygiene of food, terrible management stay away ! We came for an early dinner before the opera and my husband and father in law both ordered the duck. They thought it tasted very gamey but didn’t think too much of it. Later that evening they started getting very sick and it turned out they had food poisoning from the food at the restaurant. They both ordered the same dish- the lacquered duck and they both got very very sick. They couldn’t move for 3-4 days. When I got in touch with the management at the restaurant to let them know about this they refused to accept any kind of responsibility claiming they “continue to believe and trust in our high standards in food quality and hygiene measures.” (LOL) They have done nothing to help us despite the exchange of several long emails explaining the horrible days we had with the poisoning. I understand mistakes can happen in any restaurant but the way they handled this was truly disgraceful. Both guests only had the duck and both guests feel extremely sick after eating the dish. Clear case of food poisoning. All for 180 Euros! In their last email the restaurant tried to claim we must have gotten a viral infection at the opera… given we are 4 people and only 2 (the two that ate the duck) got sick this is a really pathetic way of handling a complaint and a great example of how not to handle such a case Do better !
