Restaurant recommendation in Munich for a special celebration

Thank you for your reply. We are flexible with the budget, although we don't particularly lean towards Michelin star or overly expensive restaurants. I am looking more for a great experience, nice ambience, and great food, whether is German food or otherwise. That will be our last full day in Germany, so I am sure we will had visited beer halls already by then -unless you recommend I save a special beer hall place for that occasion. Thanks again in advance!

Thank you! This is so helpful! I appreciate all recommendations. And since you seem to be so knowledgeable of the food scene, I would love to hear other lower price recommendations in general for the other days we are in Munich :) And what beer halls we should not missed (I know I can look it up using RS and other sources but always appreciate a local take better!)

As Mignon writes Munich is full of international food choices and I would assume most Munich residents have their favourite Italian restaurant somewhere in their quarter.
Let me add a special place:

restaurant181.com/181/en/ - restaurant on top of the tower in Olympic park.
I have been there long time ago when it was operated by a different gastronome, thus I can’t comment on the food quality but the views are excellent.

Following (non-bavarian food) places, I know and can recommend:

Bambergerhaus, BRUNNERSTRASSE 2, 80804 MÜNCHEN – Baroque style mansion in Luitpoldpark, mainly Austrian style food, U2/U3/U8 Scheidplatz then walk through the park.

Jacci, Ysenburgstr. 13, 80634 München – my favorit Asian restaurant, near U1 – Rotkreuzplatz

Neni, Bahnhofpl. 1, 80335 München (at the 25hours Hotel The Royal Bavarian) - Israeli foods with local influence, great atmosphere, next to Hauptbahnhof (main station)

Abacco’s, Oberanger 31 – 33, 80331 München - good Steakhouse, close to Viktualienmarkt

Lots of good suggestions. I'll add a few too:

For a nice dinner out:

• Vinaiolo - This is my favorite Italian restaurant in Munich (This is where my wife and I would have our anniversary dinner). Located in the charming Haidhausen area at Steinstraße 42. There is usually a set multi course meal with pricing from 70-100€ per person.
• Paulaner am Nockherberg - Slightly more upscale than a tradition beer hall, but not over the top. Located at Hochstraße 77. Good quality traditional Bavarian dishes and the atmosphere is really nice in the restaurant. Also, the only place you can get Nockherberger Bier.

More casual dining:

• Hofbräukeller - More traditional beer keller at Innere Wiener Straße 19. They also have a nice big Biergarten out back if the weather is nice.
• Cafe Voila - Good local cafe (open for breakfast, lunch dinner and after dinner drinks). Located at Wörthstraße 5. I like the Curry Turkey Filet.

I could go on but you have more than enough suggestions already!

Wow! This is priceless! I appreciate it so much! I might need another trip to Munich :) Thank you really so much for all the recommendations. I am sure I will not go wrong. Cheers!
