Mezzodi - Munich

We used to frequent Mezzodi quite often in the past. First because we live around the corner, second because it is a nice place with atmosphere, nice selection of wine, decent food and capable service. Last year some of the staff left to open up a new joint next street and Mezzodi went down. The place is still nice, food decent, wine selection nice. Service wasn't to great in the past but most of the time ok. But after the change in personell service went down to lucky punch. If you are lucky and they have some kind of lets-do-good-service mood, it is a great place to spend a relaxed time. Unfortunately these moments are rare. Staff focuses in general on checking the music and putting it on high volume, or chitchatting with each other about whatever, or getting news from some regulars about the newest gossip of the neighborhood. Guests are third or fourth priority.In case you get the attention of one of them you might be lucky to get someone who is friendly, knows details about the wine list and gives good recommendations. You get attention of the wrong person, you can give yourself advice. Risk is high to get the wrong person who gives you the impression that your wish to consume some more wine or food is a real challenge for them and they only satisfy your wish because of their generosity. Honestly, I do not want to go to a place in the knowledge that the service might be capable or not. Attentive or not. Message to the owners: improve the quality of your service dramatically. What keeps your income steady right now is the location and the patience of the people who live in the area. But competition is high in Haidhausen, things can change rapidly.

I was looking for a place to try new wines and mezzodi turned out to be the perfect place for me. Great staff service in English, Italian or German. They gave personal attention and were extremely friendly. Their lively character and energy feeds the ambiance and it was evident that everyone was enjoying both their food and having interesting conversations. Being a solo tourist, a group of locals were very interested in my culture and they were a joy to hold conversation with. From this wonderful experience, I am highly considering going back a 2nd night in a row knowing I will have a good time.

My wife and I joined 4 friends at this boutique wine bar for dinner and although I was a little nervous about the limited menu/food selection, we found the experience delightful. The reception and service in English and German was very warm and friendly, with time being taken to talk us through the menu and specials as well as giving us some sound wine recommendations. The food was served punctually and was tasty and well prepared with constant attention to see that all was according to our requirements. The desserts were delicious and after we had paid we were given complimentary grappa (or choice of limoncello) to cap off the night. €180 for 6 people (€30/head for the mathematically challenged ) including shared starter, main courses, pre-dinner beer & prosecco, a bottle of red, dessert & coffees (excluding tips), which we overpaid on the basis of great service. Great value and a definite return venue.

We both got very ill hours after eating here. it was last summer, and i wrote the review then, but when tripadvisor asked if i really wanted to post it (with the title 'food poisoning'). i decided to try to put it in the past. but it was a special evening that was ruined and i haven't been able to forget it, so i don't think they should get a complete pass on it. we both ate the same thing (fondue), so it's hard to imagine it could have been anything else. so this is just strongly to advise caution.

Popped in here for drinks, it's warm and cosy inside - walls are filled with different bottles of wine. Good selection of white and red wines by the glass and one rose by the glass. The rose was really nice as was the Tempranillo. We didn't eat here but all the food looked appetizing - our waitress was lovely. Great spot for some really nice wines. Wines are sold by the 100ml, 200ml or by the bottle.
