Steinheil 16 – A Must-Visit for Schnitzel Lovers in Munich Pork schnitzel has been one of the dishes I’ve been looking forward to on this trip — and Steinheil 16 didn’t disappoint. The atmosphere is cozy and lively, perfect for gathering with a small group of friends (no more than 4 people), since finding a table can be tough. Reservation is highly recommended — walk-in chances are quite low. We booked for 5:30 pm on a Sunday but arrived early at 4:00 pm and waited about 30 minutes for a walk-in table. The restaurant was completely packed both inside and outside, which already told us how popular this place is. We ordered the pork schnitzel with potato salad and curried sausage. The schnitzel was absolutely worth the wait — thin, crispy, and delicious. But the portion is huge — definitely bigger than what most Asians could comfortably finish in one sitting. The curry sausage was superb too, a little on the salty side, but it pairs perfectly with beer. Interestingly, we seemed to be the only Asian guests in the restaurant, which is a good sign that this is a local favorite spot rather than a tourist trap. If you’re in Munich and want a truly local schnitzel experience, Steinheil 16 is a must-try. Just make sure to book ahead and come hungry. (It costs us 36.4 euro this meal) We were here with #Bigfoot and #Littlefeet and some friends. Steinheil 16 was recommended to us because we were looking for a restaurant where we could eat a good schnitzel. And yes, the schnitzels are large, delicious, and reasonably priced. We can only hope that it stays that way. So, the food and drinks—delicious Augustiner on tap—were great because they were nothing special and prepared as well and as low-fat as possible. It tasted really good. Praise from everyone to the kitchen! Because done! And the service? Excellent, because it was cheerful and attentive, recognizing that children sometimes need more time and asking guests if they would like anything else. Nowadays, it's often the case that guests have to ask for something to happen. Here, it's different. And the location? Good. Cozy, and there's also a terrace outside. And it wasn't as loud as everyone always says. It was fine the way it was. It was a pleasant and enjoyable evening for everyone. We can highly recommend Steinheil! Happy and satisfied with today’s meal. The Schnitzel was very tasty; if you come hungry, I recommend ordering the pork one as it comes in a large portion, and pairing it with the potatoes shown in the picture. The service was very pleasant, which made the meal even more enjoyable. I’m not giving five stars because, although it was good, it wasn’t an experience that left me speechless.

I came here after ChatGPT suggested this place. As a schnitzel fan, I was looking for something authentic and close to the central station — and this spot was perfect. The staff were welcoming. Even without a reservation, the waitress kindly offered me a seat outside. It was a quiet afternoon, just after lunch rush. I ordered a beer and a Wiener Schnitzel. Everything was excellent — the schnitzel was cooked to perfection, crispy yet tender. The potatoes were clearly homemade, not frozen, which made a big difference. The dish was served promptly and came with a fresh, well-balanced salad. The service was polite and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended if you’re in Munich and want a great schnitzel near the station (15 min walk).
