Bar Tapas
Schwabing
Munich's first proper tapas bar, on Amalienstraße since 1995.
Authentic Mexican tacos and quesadillas at Münchner Freiheit.
Condesa is the closest Munich gets to actual Mexican cooking, founded by Georg Ebner and Isaac Pastrana, named after the Mexico City neighbourhood, with a small chain of locations across the city of which the Münchner Freiheit room is the one to know. The kitchen does proper street-tacos on house-pressed corn tortillas (al pastor, carnitas, lengua, vegetarian options), guacamole made to order, agua frescas, and a tight tequila-and-mezcal list. Nothing about it is fine dining, it's a casual Mexican lunch-or-dinner stop in Schwabing, but it's the only address in Munich where the salsa is right, the tortillas aren't industrial, and the al pastor actually tastes like al pastor. Useful for a relaxed Schwabing meal between proper restaurant nights.
Order the al pastor and the carnitas tacos, a side of guacamole, and a mezcal-based drink to start. The Münchner Freiheit branch is the original and best, the Hauptbahnhof and Implerstraße locations are quicker stops. No reservations; lunch is fast, dinner has a wait on weekends.
