RESTAURANT SUMMARY

Where Franconian tradition meets contemporary artistry, MiZAR Würzburg emerges as Germany's most compelling new fine dining destination, transforming a former riverside pub into Konstantin Kuntzsch's intimate culinary theater just steps from the Old Main Bridge.
Opened in April 2024, MiZAR represents the ambitious vision of Michelin-starred chef Konstantin Kuntzsch, formerly of the acclaimed Speiseberg in Halle an der Saale, and his business partner Florian Mack. Together, they've crafted an ultra-personal dining concept that celebrates the terroir of Franconia through modern technique and unwavering precision. Within months of opening, their dedication earned MiZAR a coveted Michelin star, establishing the restaurant as Würzburg's premier gastronomic address. The duo's philosophy centers on showcasing regional ingredients through innovative preparations that honor both classical foundations and contemporary creativity.
The cuisine at MiZAR revolves around a meticulously crafted seven to nine-course seasonal tasting menu that reads like a love letter to Franconian terroir. Signature creations include the restaurant's celebrated oeuf parfait with multiple mushroom varieties and mushroom dashi, and the show-stopping Bavarian fawn saddle—roasted to perfect pinkness with a delicate hazelnut crust, paired with celery and apple flavors, silky Japanese hollandaise, and an intensely flavored venison jus. The cauliflower course, elevated by an unexpected leaf salad ice cream, exemplifies Kuntzsch's playful yet precise approach. Even the vegetarian menu receives extraordinary attention, earning particular praise for its creativity and technical execution. Each dish demonstrates the chef's commitment to sourcing the finest regional ingredients while applying sophisticated modern techniques.
The intimate dining room features just four generously spaced tables, creating an atmosphere of quiet luxury enhanced by eye-catching contemporary artwork and warm-toned furnishings. The open kitchen design allows diners glimpses of Kuntzsch's calm, concentrated craft, while sommelier Florian Mack leads the front-of-house team with professional warmth. The exclusively Franconian wine program perfectly complements the regional cuisine philosophy, with Mack carefully curating pairings that enhance each course's complexity. Service unfolds over approximately four hours, allowing proper appreciation of each dish's artistry.
Reservations at MiZAR require significant advance planning, with dinner service beginning promptly at 7pm. The restaurant's rapid ascent to Michelin-starred status and intimate four-table capacity make securing a table increasingly challenging, positioning MiZAR as Würzburg's most coveted fine dining reservation and a compelling destination for Germany's most discerning gourmands.
