Lakeside

This is the 2nd time we have been to the Lakeside. The 1st time we thought it was fantastic, so we wanted to give it a second try. This was absolute perfection, when everything comes together for an unbeatable evening. The food was brilliant, creative amd full of flavour. We frequent Michelin starred restaurants, and it is rare that all dishes are exceptional. This was the case yesterday. The wine pairing was also perfectly matching, with selections that weren't easy or obvious, but fitted beautifully with the meal. And then we have the service. Very friendly, smiley and very attentive without any glitch whatsoever. You could sense that all were on top of everything, simply perfect. In addition, the pace was very good, with no long wait times between dishes. We have tried many top end restaurants, also in Hamburg. I can genuinely say that the Lakeside stands out in Hamburg, far superior than other perhaps more renowned restaurants. We will be back, even if it means a 500 km trip from where we live. Congratulations to the Chef, Sommelier and the full staff! We were exceptionally happy with this evening!

Chef Julian Stohmann has been awarded the Michelin Star in his first year at the Lakeside Restaurant in Hotel Fontenay. I personally believe he has the potential for the second star soon.

Oh, such a delicious food can bring you to heaven. In those seven courses out of small portions, there is such a variety of tastes, aroma of every dish is amazing, fresh ingredients, beauty and perfection. Food made with passion. I could feel it.

what s great great evening we loved it so much 👍🫶❤️😘

Perfect! A beautiful holiday menu from the Lakeside team with absolutely friendly service. Some of the dishes were truly unique, and classics like the lobster thermidor were taken to a new level of decadence. The restaurant design is calming and gives a sense of quality, homeliness and freedom - located in one of Hamburgs most beautiful hotels, we were lucky to have soft, live music from the bar downstairs. I would like to especially thank the sommelier for her friendliness, knowledge, and perfect recommendations of wines and non-alcoholic beverages. Well done!

Good food, good service, a snobby location and atmosphere. The paired wines were excellent.

Great service! Great wines! Super nice atmosphere! Definitely a strong recommendation

a perfect evening. excellent. nothing more to say.

2nd best restaurant in Hamburg, surpassed only by The Table. Best service in Hamburg. Best view in Hamburg. Best place for pre-dinner drinks in Hamburg (below on the deck). Robbed of 2 stars by Michelin. Highly recommended.
