Zur Flottbeker Schmiede

Portuguese, Mediterranean Cuisine · Bib

€€

Experience a slice of Portugal in Hamburg! The setting, a heritage-protected historical forge, exudes traditional German charm with its authentic decor and period open fireplace. It makes for a pleasantly laid-back atmosphere in which to tuck into delicious freshly made, fuss-free tapas. The chef-patron serves up genuine Portuguese cuisine but incorporates international influences. Try, for example, her "barbecued calamari, marinade, garlic" or "roasted miso cauliflower, white bean purée, coriander chimichurri". The well-curated wine list is dedicated to Portuguese labels.

Landhaus Scherrer

Classic Cuisine, Regional Cuisine · ★ Michelin

€€€€

Behind its smart white façade, this culinary gem, somewhat tucked away in a quiet neighbourhood, welcomes diners into an atmosphere that is both elegant and inviting. At the helm in the kitchen is Heinz O. Wehmann, who is as integral to Landhaus Scherrer as St Michael's Church is to Hamburg! Since 1980, he has been head chef at this restaurant, which was opened in 1976 by Armin and Emmi Scherrer, and boasts a long history of MICHELIN-star recognition. Dishes rooted in classic cuisine, such as crustacean ravioli with morels and young leek, or pan-fried cod fillet with asparagus ragout, boiled p

HYGGE Brasserie & Bar

Farm to table · Bib

€€

This hip place is named after the concept of hygge. In Danish and Norwegian, this describes a feeling of cosy wellbeing and comfortable conviviality – very fitting for the atmosphere conjured up in this pretty half-timbered house, which used to be a stable for polo horses. Allying rustic timber elements and modern design, the interior is chic and stylish, with the central fireplace as the focal point. The atmosphere is pleasantly lively. Unfussy seasonal dishes make up the HYGGE set menu and surprise menu; alternatively go à la carte – there are great vegetarian options, too. Or why not order

Petit Amour

Eike Iken and Monique Lingg are your dedicated hosts. The chef-patron skilfully weaves together modern, classic French and Nordic influences (his cod, mussels, curry and cauliflower, for instance, is delicious). Knowledgeable staff provide cordial service, and the chefs come to the table to present the dishes that form the four- to six-course set menu. To accompany the food, there are carefully selected wine pairings, plus a premium option; the high-calibre house-made alcohol-free accompaniment is also recommended. The small restaurant with its 12 tables has a pleasant, almost intimate atmosph

Jacobs Restaurant

Classic Cuisine, Modern Cuisine

€€€€

Accommodated in Hotel Louis C. Jacob, which boasts a prime location, this restaurant serves modern cuisine with classic touches in an elegant setting. Diners can order à la carte or opt for one of the set menus (conventional or vegetarian). Among the standout dishes are the lobster foam soup and the braised ox shoulder. The Vierland duck served in four courses is a classic option for two. Well-curated wine list. The seating out on Lindenterrasse, overlooking the Elbe River, is undoubtedly the highlight in summer.

As soon as you enter this restaurant, you fall into the embrace of its inviting atmosphere: Charming tavern-style decor, soft candlelight and warm, attentive service make for a delightful setting – no wonder so many locals flock here as regulars. The Austrian cuisine is a hit – the "Schmankerl Brett" (snack platter) and stone-baked flammkuchen, as well as Tafelspitz (prime boiled beef) and Wiener schnitzel are crowds-pleasers, not forgetting the caramelised Kaiserschmarrn (shredded pancake) with stewed plums. There is also an appealing three- or four-course set menu dubbed "Lütten Jacob Genuss

The trip out of Hamburg city centre to the well-to-do Hochkamp neighbourhood is well worth it, as the many locals who regularly dine here will confirm. Fitting seamlessly into the villa-studded neighbourhood, this elegant little bistro boasts an upscale modern interior. The service is warm and professional. From some tables, diners can see through the glass partition into the kitchen. Félix Bechtolf – after whom the establishment is named – and his team craft classic French dishes including plenty of fish and seafood. The quality of the ingredients and meticulous preparation never fail to impr

Once the sommelier at Petit Amour on Spritzenplatz, Mathias Mercier has now realised his dream and opened his own restaurant just a short distance away. In a relaxed setting, diners are offered a small à la carte selection; if they wish, they can create a small set menu comprising three to six courses from the individual dishes. Alternatively, they can opt for the nine-course tasting menu – the value for money is excellent. The cuisine clearly draws on the chef-patron's southern French roots, featuring delicacies such as fougasse with a superb anchoïade (anchovy sauce) and pralines infused wit
