Typical Bavarian food. Better atmosphere than hofbaruhaus as it’s brighter, smaller and more friendly service. They had a band playing while you eat and socialize which adds to the traditional party ambiance. I recommend the Viener schnitzel (veal schnitzel with potato salad). Squeeze the lemon on it - I can’t explain it but it makes the schnitzel so much tastier ! With the main dishes you get to choose whether you get potato salad, fries or sautéed baby potatoes. There’s a mix of locals and tourists and the staff are friendly regardless. I tried the roast chicken and it was crisped to perfection. I want to come back here!!
5 stars food and 7 stars service! We were roasted by the waiter like never, but still taken best care of!
We had Käsespätzle and beers and both were very good.
Our waiter was attentive and pleasant as well.
Seating upstairs is very nice.
Satisfied.

We have been to Augustiner am Platzl at Munich a couple of weeks ago as we wanted to try the famous pork knuckle and beer of Germany. It was recommended by our tour guide and she never failed us. Its one of the nicest restaurant we've been and I also now recommend it. The pork knuckle is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The service I would rate a 5-Star as the staff were all good and polite.
It was a place with lots of patrons. Despite this, I was able to get a table quite quickly during the busy lunch hours.
Food wise I was told by my friend that the white color sausage was comparable to the breakfast of a budget hotel. Despite this, she seemed to enjoyed it a lot. 😁
The half roasted chicken chicken was comparable to what I've bought in Costco in the bay area. Really like it. Awesome!
Do note that the washroom/toilet is underground.

There are many extreme comments about the waiters in the restaurant, some said they were treated good and some complained about the attitude of the waiters. I think it largely depends on the timing of your visiting, when you go to the restaurant in peak hour, waiters may not be able to serve you right, if you want to avoid such unpleasant experience, come early or later, like 9 pm. Anyway, the waiter who served me was quite nice.
Btw, the food was average, but portion was very big, if you are not a big eater don’t order too much, the pork knuckle was good but the meat inside was a little bit stiff and chewy, I suppose it was over cooked, but still I am happy that I have tasted the German pork knuckle though.

Our first German meal for the trip and it was so good. We had the traditional roast pork and the meatball which was recommended by our server. Luan, our server, was so sweet and helpful. He recommended us good food and beers as well. Really grateful for your great service and hospitality. Definitely recommend!!!
This place was terrific. The waiters are outstanding and the food is too! We had the house salad. It was fresh, full of flavor and the dressing was very good. We had the beef topped with crispy onions and a side of spaetzel. Delicious! The pretzel was really good as was the massive volume of beer.
If you’re in old Munich, this is a must go spot for lunch or dinner!!!
