ZEIK Restaurant

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.

There were two of us at Zeik on a Saturday evening celebrating our anniversary sitting on the chefs table which we don’t recommend if you would like privacy. Unfortunately, we cannot agree with the predominantly positive reviews. On the contrary: our visit to Zeik was one of the most disappointing visits we've ever had to fine dining. There are three main reasons for this: 1. the cuisine: the dishes - almost across the board - tasted unbalanced and in some cases trivial. With the raw strong flavored vegetables which personally is not my taste but this is not on the restaurant. A very dominant saltiness in some courses was particularly annoying, specifically after the kohlrabi dish (3rd plate) everything went down as it was super salty, next we had dish, another salty dish so it was already over the limit. On the sweet dishes, you have a penetrating sweetness and remained for a long time and it was not even the dessert but after it you finally get the actual dessert which at that time it was already too much sweet. You MUST take the paired wine with every dish or at least a glass of wine to be able to consume the food and delete the flavor from the previous dish which I think it should not be necessary when the food is balanced and well done. I also got a broken plate by the half which you could clearly see it was glued, that was strange. 2. the service which for a Michelin star restaurant and those high prices must be immaculate, as I mentioned before we were seated at the chefs table so the service and presentation was not personalized as they were presenting the dishes to everyone at the same time but ok. I’m an English speaker and they forgot to introduce me once to one of the dishes but ok. There was no individual interaction, charm or even humor. 3. The very, very, very long waiting time between courses. More than 4 1/2 hours were spent on (in the end also in terms of quantity and use of products) very little culinary delights. About 20 minutes before the next course, a small sip was poured, which was usually already empty when the course arrived. About 80% of the time you sat on dry land. Therefore, absolutely no recommendation for gourmets. Comparable restaurants (e.g. Sparkling Bistro, jellyfish) offer much more. In conclusion this is only a well plated, excessive priced restaurant. I don’t understand the Michelin star.

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.

einfach super we like it very much! thanks for such a nice evening!!!

Had a beautiful 10 year anniversary dinner here. Such attention to detail in food, presentation and service. We also really enjoyed the art on the walls (by a local artist). I think we spent about 4 hours there for dinner, but the time really flew by because of the excellent food, timing between dishes and the good conversation with my husband. Would recommend this restaurant for special occasions.
