Restaurant Zeik

Zeik was the third Michelin star restaurant we visited and it did not disappoint. We had a reservation at the chef's table for dinner for 3 people (2 vegetarians). The food is very tasty and unique. It's absolutely amazing how much flavor they were able to get out of simple ingredients, some of the vegetarian dishes were like a slap in the face (in a good way). As we only drank water the whole time, we can't comment on the wine accompaniments (or non-alcoholic drinks), but the other diners at the table with us seemed to have enjoyed it. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and the trivia about the individual ingredients in some of the dishes was a nice touch. There were a few slip ups when some people at the table were served the wrong dishes and vegetarians were served meat dishes, but that's not something that really bothered us, mistakes can happen after all. We will definitely be back the next time we are in Hamburg.

Truly one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. Every dish was a delight. I absolutely loved the “earthy” taste, Green star well deserved. Will definitely be coming back!!! The service is impeccable and even the street is lovely. Highest recommendations!

Super extra !!!! Everything was really delicious!! Crew super nice, introduction and describe menu was really amazing. Taste was brilliant, a lot of texture mixed with cold and hot, some3imes sweet sometimes sous. Perfect! Wine first class, the same like sommerie!

Went here with my wife for a course dinner. The restaurant has less than 10 tables inside, few tables outside and one big room for a group of up to 6 people. We picked to expand the menu with one more course, which made us very full in the end :) My wife decided to go with non-alcoholic pairing. I went for half wine pairing. Wine selection from the personal was great to complement the food: had two whites and one red from Germany and France. The house-made non-alcoholic drinks were quite interesting and surprising, for example, there was a drink that smelled like strawberry but tasted like tomato :) The buttermilk drink with herbs was quite nice! The dishes were of high quality and beautiful plating. Simple in ingredients and at the same time sophisticated in taste. Among the favorites were: the starter with lettuce, onion and buttermilk; the beetroot with cherry - cherry based sauce was yummy; the trout fish with radish and cucumber; and the transitional course after the main course to dessert with currant and soup vegetables - very refreshing. Main dishes with chicken were simple to our taste. We spent around 4.5 hours for the dining experience which is totally fine as we needed breaks in between the courses. The final bill was around 400€ which is okay for fine dining in Germany for two. We would come back here again in 1-2 years to check again how the restaurant would evolve.

We came with very high expectations and were not disappointed! Great, creatively composed food. Great attention to detail and service. I like that Zeik offers a non-alcoholic drink-pairing.

Excellent food, prepared with great attention to detail and good presentation. The pictures should speak for themselves. There is only one six course set menu, either 'everything' or vegetarian. Various 'greetings' were served before/between the six courses. The service is very attentive, while still being 'down-to-earth' and friendly, less formal, which we really enjoyed. We called last-minute on a Tuesday and managed to get the last table for that evening , but would strongly recommend to make reservations.

Amazing experience! Gradually building course menu with the starter & dessert compliments, tasty & complex flavors in each & every dish with great attention to details both from the products quality perspective & the presentation. Relatively small but wonderful choice of wines by the glass, as well as in-house non-alcoholic drinks. Extremely positive experience with the whole staff speaking English & being ready to present the dishes in a genuine & easy-going manner. The highlight is the humbleness & down to earth approach of the chef, as he will be serving some of the courses himself and openly asking for feedback & discussing the experience in the restaurant. Only 1 downside - it might be a bit too crowded & loud, as space between the tables is rather small.

I recently dined at this Michelin-starred restaurant and had an overall wonderful experience. The food was truly awesome—especially the small appetizers, which were creative and perfectly executed. The attentive kindness of our waitress added to the warm atmosphere of the evening. However, one downside was the sommelier; his demeanor felt unenthusiastic and somewhat depressing, which was a bit off-putting compared to the rest of the service. Despite this, the exceptional cuisine makes it a memorable dining destination.

Super Menu und sehr stimmige Weinbegleitung. Tolle Farben auf dem Teller. Der Service ist aufmerksam und im Umgang angenehm locker. Ein super Abend.

Memorable meal, we loved the intimate size of the restaurant and the exellent food! Fantastic to have chef Axel's culinary mastery back in Hamburg! Never had better red beets than here!
