Pulverturm an der Frauenkirche

The restaurant has a great location next to the women's church with a cannon outside where the outside seats are. the inner is at the bottom with the main room surrounded by several meter thick circular walls from the original powder tower. decorated with weapons, flags. a cool ambiente. a note, it's a bit loud when busy. there are also rooms with different them that look great and can be quieter. Eating was good, though I would say that most weren't done themselves. red cabbage was a little too sweet for my personal taste and the sour wort was too sweet for my wife. the roasted sucking pig was very good with a nice piece crispy skin. my sour roast was good, mostly delicate, both sauces were well seasoned, not excessively salty. the service was good and helpful.

The location, the service, the ambiente are all good, and the prices are quite reasonable. but eating was very mediocre -bland and over kocher. I think everything is prepared and reheated.

I must say that it was above average tourist trap! really good service and beautiful atmosphere sitting under the earth where it used to keep gunpowder. highly recommended if you want to taste a huge part of the German cuisine.

Enjoyed our meal here on a summer evening.good attentive service. We had the pork and cabbage baked in a bread loaf and the “ cannonballs “ ...three meat and vegetable mixtures in pastry. Savoury and delightful. Touristy of course given the location, but fresh tasty...food.

There was nothing to object to. I had the white asparagus and then the house special a Sauerbraten. Neither were distinctive, nor were they deficient. Just pretty much what you would expect at any decent local restaurant. The environment essentially a domed munitions...basement with a high domed ceiling decorated everywhere in a medieval theme of weapons, sconces and wall hangings was too kitschy for my taste and definitely geared to entertaining tourists. Wandering minstrels and “beggars” complete the theme. While prices were gentle compared to New York or Paris, they were noticeably higher than local restaurants serving similar fare a premium for the surroundings if you like that sort of thing. While lively German restaurants serving a lot of beer are always a bit on the loud side, the domed ceiling had the definite effect of amplifying sound. Even though we were sitting high above the ground level on a sort of balcony, and the restaurant was only about occupied (though it did fill up more as the evening progressed) it was hard to have a conversation without raising your voice close to a shout. Nothing particularly wrong here, but not a restaurant to my taste and nothing they can, or should, do to change that. It is what it is a medieval-themed tourist restaurant with decent enough food, slightly elevated prices and probably amusing enough for some.
