The Michelin Guide's review
Visitors to Hamburg hoping for a combination of history, opulence and first-rate cuisine should look no further than this elegant fine dining restaurant housed in the legendary Fairmont Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten, which also affords beautiful views of the Binnenalster. For many years now, head chef Christoph Rüffer has been the guarantor of continuity and constant evolution with his seasonal set menus prepared using top-notch ingredients – this is something of an institution within the city's fine dining scene. The dishes on the menu are characterised by their precise preparation and wonderfully bold flavours: spiced duck (sourced from Odefey & Töchter poultry farm), elderberry jus, blood sausage muffin and red cabbage. You will be pampered by a well-drilled classic front-of-house team in this stylish and luxurious setting. The wine list is outstanding. We recommend opting for the prescribed wine pairings.
