Full disclosure: We live about three minutes away, so we have been to this restaurant more than once. Actually, quite a few times. tl;dr: We were never disappointed.
The ambience is simply nice. Modern with a touch of vintage. The backroom is especially nice.
The menu contains what you would expect from a very good Bavarian restaurant. All local "must eats" checked, and with no frills or thrills. Simply rock solid Bavarian food. The quality of the ingredients is very high, even by Munich standards. You can order both meats and fish with confidence, as they will be fresh, tasty, and well-made.
The pork roast deserves special mentioning. Unless you are used to US serving sizes, the small one will do nicely. Dumplings can be ordered extra, at very little cost (€1.5 if memory serves).
Everything else is simply nice, too. The Spätzle (Swabian noodles) are a great choice for vegetarians. The salads are fresh, and the dressings never overdone.
The eponymous tap beer (Augustiner) is arguably the best of the six major brands in Munich, and it is always fresh, and crisp.
The staff are extremely attentive. Even when put to the test (football world championship transmitted live, venue fully packed), we never had to wait for more than a couple of minutes.
Outside seating is available, and one will be waited fast there, too.
Overall, one of the more commendable Bavarian restaurants in town. Nice ambience, very nice food, friendly and attentive staff. Nice!
