Which is the best steak in the world? This seemingly unsolvable question is a headache for all meat lovers at least once in their lives. But while the discussions usually revolve around the origin and breed of the meat, Upper Cut Media House has decided to clarify once and for all in which restaurants it is best prepared. Naturally, we want to find out which are the best steak restaurants in Munich.
With its annual ranking of the WORLD’S 101 BEST STEAK RESTAURANTS the London-based media company attempts to provide a global guide so that lovers of red meat can continue the discussion between bites. And as it turns out, the guide makes two stops in Munich.
The best meat is prepared here
The list of the WORLD’S 101 BEST STEAK RESTAURANTS has not been compiled at random. On the contrary, it was created according to strict gastronomic rules, which are organized according to six main criteria. First and foremost is the quality of the meat served. This is measured on the basis of taste, preparation, tenderness and other factors. Of course, the choice of meat is also crucial. In this category, however, not only the origin and breed of the meat are taken into account, but also whether the cuts on offer are primary or secondary.
The other four criteria are more about the restaurants than the meat itself. The quality of service and meat expertise are taken into account, as is the description of the cuts offered on the menu, which contains or should contain information such as breed, origin, feeding and preparation. Finally, there are more general factors such as the user-friendliness of the reservation system and the interior design of the restaurant.
To rate the steak restaurants according to these criteria, Upper Cut Media House sends 2 to 4 food critics – also known as steak ambassadors – to each continent. These visit the candidates for the best steak restaurant incognito at least once. A team of experts then tastes each of the selected steaks and compiles the ranking list.
The best steak restaurants in Munich
The gastronomy in the Isar metropolis has always been outstanding, so it is not surprising that two restaurants in the city serve some of the best steaks in the world.
One of these is the George Prime Steak and Raw Bar. Located on Maximiliansplatz, the exquisite origin of the meat served – the highest grade of American meat according to the US Department of Agriculture – has helped this restaurant to 39th place. The excellent handmade cocktails and high-quality seafood that guests can enjoy here were certainly just as helpful.
The other excellent Munich steakhouse is The Grill Munich, located right on Lenbachplatz. Here, the origin of the meat is more diverse, coming from Ireland, Austria, Germany or Australia. Just as good as the steaks are the side dishes and homemade sauces, which are served with a weekly changing menu. Or rather daily, because guests can put together their own menus.
The ranking is headed by a restaurant from London, HAWKSMOOR, and one from Buenos Aires in Argentina. According to the list, the best steaks in Germany are to be found in Berlin, at Grill Royal. We hope you enjoy feasting at the best steak restaurants in Munich.
