Les Deux

A five-minute walk from Marienplatz, the city’s main square, Les Deux houses a French brasserie on its lower floor and offers Michelin-star fine-dining upstairs. The brasserie serves the best tarte flambées this side of France (owner Fabrice Kieffer is from the Alsace region), while the fine-dining restaurant focusses on modern French cuisine (the oysters are a must-try). The head chef, Edip Sigl, took the role on in 2019, having worked in the kitchen under Johann Rappenglück for six years previously.

Im Münchener Restaurant „Les Deux“ gibt es französische Küche auf Spitzenniveau. Das urbane Fine-Dining-Restaurant „Les Deux“ unter der Leitung von Gastgeber Fabrice Kieffer zeichnet sich durch die gekonnte Interpretation klassischer Geschmacksbilder durch Chefköchin Nathalie Leblond aus. Gerichte wie hausgebeizter Loch-Duart-Lachs in fruchtig-frischem Ananasfond oder hausgemachte Kartoffelgnocchi mit Kaisergranat und weißem Alba-Trüffel bieten luxuriösen Genuss, während das fast rundum verglaste, elegant gestaltete Restaurant von Kieffers bestens geschultem Team betreut wird.

Inside the Schäfflerhof – one of Munich's finest shopping destinations, in the square formed between Theatinerstrasse, Maffeistrasse and Schäfflerstrasse – Les Deux restaurant extends over two fully-glazed storeys. The “les deux” of the name is a reference to the two founders Alsace-born Fabrice Kieffer and his wife Katrin Kieffer, for which they have once again been awarded a Michelin star. Star chef Nathalie Leblond is currently responsible for both kitchens.

Das Les Deux in der Altstadt steht für moderne französische Haute Cuisine mit japanischen Einflüssen - und durfte sich nur kurz mit zwei Sternen schmücken. Nachdem Chef Edip Sigl, der die Auszeichnung 2020 erstmals erkochte, das Lokal aus privaten Gründen verließ, hat eine Doppelspitze seine Nachfolge übernommen: Gregor Goncharov (links) und Nathalie Leblond haben ihn ersetzt - konnten aber nur einen Stern erreichen.

Les Deux in Schäfflerhof, a shopping mall on Maffeistraße, is a chic restaurant with a café bistro on the ground floor and a Michelin star on the first floor. We opted for the bistro, which has elegant silver light fixtures and a casual yet upscale bar, that serves a German and French-influenced menu. We ordered the Pinot Noir’ Vielles Vignes’ Domaine Henri Kieffer Fils from Alsace.

One of Munich's most acclaimed French restaurants, Les Deux is a good choice for a quiet, elegant dining experience. The ground floor houses the brasserie in a modern, understated dining room, while the first floor holds a fine dining restaurant, which has a Michelin star. The restaurant is a multi-hour fine dining experience, with exquisitely plated, delicate food.

There are two parts to Les Deux: the casual bistro on the ground floor and the Michelin star restaurant on the first floor. In the Michelin restaurant, they serve a German-influenced French cuisine. The dishes are very precise, clean, bright with a high level of execution.

The French food in the old town of Munich, the French bread is very good, actually ordered a few dishes have bread, I am also dizzy, eat bread directly to eat, the oyster is really very fresh, lemon juice is great.

Nathalie Leblond and her team conjure up creative French interpretations such as Breton sardines with fine Manchego and pineapple or peach melba on the second floor of Les Deux. Excellent wine list!

We meet star chef Nathalie Leblond at Café Nymphenburg Sekt for a Bolognese - and then accompany her into the kitchen of the gourmet restaurant Les Deux.
