Had a lovely dinner with my three kids tonight, everybody happy with both food and service! The interior makes a norwegian happy to: first class wood with great details, light and acoustics wonderful. A place to relax and be social!
We came here for coffee and cake, and weren't disappointed. The Black Forest Gateaux was light, creamy and delicious, and the Sachertorte was dense and chocolaty. I had the mint tea, which was refreshing, and very minty - much better than some I have had elsewhere. Will definitely be back to try some of the main courses.
Fantastic place for a quick German beer or a proper meal with delicious sausages! š
The staff is super friendly and helpful, the location is a hidden gem and the atmosphere is so peaceful!
Highly recommended!
Special thanks to Maria and Marcelo for the outstanding customer service! š
Delicious beer with a wide range of selections that you cannot get in normal bars. Different to standard pubs, this place has a more sophisticated vibe and a more classic feel. I had a couple of steins beer there and I really liked the drinks.
Food are enjoyable, quality and price are decent. Good selections for different taste.
This is a place I will return again.
Let's start off by saying the food and the beer are incredible, cannot fault at all.
The staff were very helpful and attentive and never too far away so we could always get a hold of someone when we needed something.
The atmosphere though...
it's a bit odd... Now I get it's Kensington so the restaurant is always going to have that going against it but when I think of a traditional Bavarian restaurant, I think of good German music, loud jovial patrons and staff and the clinking of beer glasses, instead this place offers a more clinical almost teetering on fine dining experience with loud generic modern music on what felt like a loop; an approach which was at such a juxtaposition to the waitress in lederhosen and the amazing food.
Id recommend going but don't expect to get swept up in a Bavarian beer experience as this just isn't that.
Whenever in the area I always visit this place for wonderfully tasty pint of draught Erdinger. Perfectly poured pint in an understated yet modern looking interior (in a Scandi style). 5 minutes walk from South Kensington underground station. Practically opposite Science Museum and short distance from Royal Albert Hall. Perfect to have a refreshment or a meal before the gig. All staff members helpful and displaying very good customer service skills. Highly recommended place
There's a lack of German, Austrian, and alpine food in London. I took the trip here because I had a good feeling I wouldn't be disappointed. The food was delicious.
I tried a beer with banana juice for the first time and enjoyed it as a nice light drink before my main.
The Bretzel was very fresh - hot, aromatic, tasty and the best texture. The Obatzda was perfect. The portion was massive so I assumed it was normally shared with two or more people, so I asked for another bretzel and the new waitress was happy to fetch me one. It would have been a shame to waste so much sauce.
I've had chicken schnitzel in Germany but not Veal. It was perfect. I prefer dark beers, and so I had the private brewery dunkel, which was kind of a dark amber ale, similar in taste to Doom bar but more complex.
Dessert was divine. Sachertorte. Been keen to try this Austrian dessert for a while. It was recommended by a German colleague
I would say itās my favourite restaurant in London. I am a regular at here and can always have a good time. The German-speaking gentleman who served me this time is the same person as previously when I had l drinks here and is welcoming and friendly as last time. If you enjoy authentic German food, elegant environment and want them with a reasonable price, then no doubt this is the place for you.

Excellent experience at Steins! Very delicious food and drinks and highly recommend. It felt like we were on holiday.
The vibe is cosy and relaxed with a minimalist āski chaletā decor. I enjoyed a delicious German organic Riesling (Burg Ravensburg Riesling, Baden), and my partner had a range of draught German beers (Dunkel, Weisser Hirsch, & Adlerkƶnig). We ordered the Bratwurst with sauerkraut, the duck confit, and the roast butternut squash and beetroot salad. The menu is excellent and weāll have to return for the fondue and sharing platters!
For starters we had a bowl of olives, cornichons and pickled onions (though it was mostly olives with a few cornichons and no onions), and a bread basket with warm rolls and a pretzel and packets of butter.
The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the restaurant felt clean. Food came at slightly odd times but only because the mains were very quick to cook. We did order the Sachertorte for pudding, but it never arrived. Despite that, we had a lovely evening and the food was very delicious and well presented.
This place has real German food and beer. There are other German places in London where you get German dishes but not the actual food. You can get real ones here, also for a very reasonable price.
Service was really good. The staff provided some generous portions of tasters for some beers that we were trying to choose from.
They also have an amazing terrace through the back door that overlooks the garden behind. Amazing spot for a chill under the sun.
We walked in on a whim and it's some of the best German food I've ever had!
We were served by Leo honestly such an amazing waiter, gave us the best service ever and always had a smile on his face while serving us. He seemed very genuine ,will definitely recommend to friends and family! The food was very nice, and delicious. We will definitely be returning.
My wife took me there as a surprise.
And, as a German, I whole-heartedly loved this place. Good beer, the food was just as in Germany (I had the Schweinemedallions on SpƤtzle with mushroom sauce, delicious)
I wish I could take this place back to Bristol with me.
They even had a good Schnaps!

Good food, fairly fast service, not a bad ambience despite not looking at all like a restaurant from the outside and the somewhat uncomfortable seats including some benches. Prices probably averagey for London, though main courses are probably better value than the sides some of which seemed to be surprisingly small. Let's not call the menu limited; let's say it's specialised. I'd go there again.
After a recent trip to Vienna where I had the good fortune of trying the famous Figlmueller schnitzel I was keen to see what I could find in the UK.
Iām a keen German Beer aficionado so was also keen to sample Steinās own Dunkel.
Neither the schnitzel (opting for chicken this time) or the Dunkel disappointed.
Both were delicious and complemented each other brilliantly.
I had a side order of freshly made Pretzl bread too with butter which was also sublime.
The restaurant is in an excellent location, especially for the Royal Albert Hall, which suited me well
Would definitely recommend. And I shall return :)
Vielen Dank Steinās fĆ¼r das leckere Essen
We were greeted, seated and looked after very nicely by two gentlemen. Online reservations and menu is accessible online, but only when you log in (wonder why is that), which caused a bit of fiddling, but otherwise - can't fault the whole experience. Sharing platter seems to be the best value for money and perfect before concert.
Be aware though - 12,5% service charge is automatically included in the bill. Had a lovely experience, so not a negative per say, but still- would prefer to be given an opportunity to choose.
Surprisingly nice place. Great interior, great terrace at the back and also great food. Of course you need to go for the Wiener schnitzel and Schwarzwalder Kirschtorte.
Never knew there were German cocktails and they are great.
We were quite early (5:30 PM), but it filled up quickly and some people were disappointed so better reserveā¦
Unassuming, this great. Cozy place sits across the university in one of the old villas.
The food is really authentic and you don't know what you should try first. We liked the large selection of traditional German dishes and the friendlyness of the staff. Everything fits well together. We will come again.
