Lux - Reichenbacherstr. 37, 8 Munich, Germany
Tries to be trendy and cool and is supposedly "in", but falls way short of being anything special at all.
The room is too open, too bare, there's really no great atmosphere and the walls, stencilled with huge flowers, don't lend anything inspirational to the mix. It attracts students with money, computer geeks with what will turn out to be worthless stock options or those wishing they were hip, all early twenties with slicked and waxed hair or the latest fashionable hair furniture.
Nothing of any note and probably not something worth your time and money to be honest. Still, people do come here, which considering the choice on offer nearby is amazing. No accounting for taste I suppose.

our friends invited us to this place for dinner last night, and after reading this review, i was really reluctant to go. but we were very happily surprised by both the quality of the food and the service. we had a party of ten and they did a bang up job of serving us all at once, which is a rarity here, i've noticed. really good meal too.

Posted by: "Anonymous" at 3:54 pm on 13.Dec.2004we thought the prices were quite good. i had five oysters at 1.5 euros each, and delicious rare entrecote at 16 euros. there was a prix fix menu at 26 euros. wine reasonable. cocktails 7 to 10 euros. go, if you can, we liked it a lot.
