Trader Vic`s - München

This was the 4th time that I was in this place. It is a nice place, but the customer experience overshadowed the stay. We were talking the entire time about how badly we were treated by the waiter and how the table next to us was also super unhappy about the service.

We were staying at the hotel and after a dreary rainy day, we decided to go downstairs (drawn by the exotic aromas) to check it out. Sat at the bar and enjoyed talking to Nigel. Had some rum cocktails and appetizers and a few other really good munchies. Was nice to see the regulars come in, meet their friends and be greeted by the host by name and order their favorite cocktails. Very warm cozy atmosphere.

Oh my. Dust off the blowfish and try to infuse some life back into this sticky, tired old spot. It used to be such a kick - but WHAT HAPPENED? The cocktails were u undrinkable -(Gimlet and whiskey sour) with sweet, off the shelf mixers in sticky glasses with crusty garnish. So...we switched to champagne but...they didn't have any! Said it would take a moment to round up a bottle...10 minutes later we paid (26 euro) and said aloha to Trader Vics. Come on guys. This is the Bayerischer Hof -not the Hofbräuhaus.

If you think you are in Polynesia when you walk down the stairs into this awesome location then you might be right. The ambience and the friendly staff catch you from the moment of your arrival and overwhelm you with discrete but with high attention friendly service approach. The service is "compared with service standards in Munich" extremely professional and match with the expectations of international service oriented customers. The food is great and match expectations. You should also consider a stop at the Bar and enjoy great cocktails and professional Bartenders who love to serve you and who do this old school!!All in all this is my most favorite location since 1996

Downstairs at the Bayericherhof hotel is a little slice of paradise in Munich. A classy tiki restaurant with great drinks and Polynesian food!
