Schanz overtakes Sonnora and Bareiss

In April 2026, the restaurant rankings for Germany are once again led by a trio. The JAN restaurant in Munich retains the top spot it has held since February 2025. It shares this position with the Rutz in Berlin and the Schwarzwaldstube in Baiersbronn, both of which drew level with the JAN in January 2026. All three restaurants have 119.4 points in the rankings.

The update takes into account 21 changes recorded in March 2026. Primarily, the ranking reflects the new ratings from Gusto. However, most of the changes result from the closure of the restaurant Aqua, which was most recently in fourth place in the ranking. This position is now taken by Victor’s Fine Dining by Christian Bau in Perl-Nennig. Schanz in Piesport has moved up to fifth place, achieving a new personal best. It has overtaken the restaurants Sonnora in Dreis and Bareiss in Baiersbronn, which are tied on points and remain in sixth place. ES:SENZ in Grassau and Haerlin have moved up to eighth place. Tohru in der Schreiberei in Munich has moved up to tenth place, returning to the top 10.

In the top 50, many restaurants have moved up a place, resulting in a number of new personal bests. For instance, Tantris in Munich has moved up to 11th place and Ophelia in Konstanz to 18th – both are now higher in the rankings than ever before. Hirschen und Sulzburg and Ösch Noir in Donaueschingen have achieved new personal bests, now sharing 33rd place. AURA by Alexander Herrmann and Tobias Bätz in Wirsberg has achieved a new personal best with 39th place. It shares this position with Speisemeisterei in Stuttgart, which has also achieved a new personal best. The same applies to KOMU in Munich in 45th place and VOTUM in Hanover in 46th place, as well as sein in Karlsruhe in 47th place.

Further restaurants in the top 100 have achieved new personal bests. These include Gotthardt’s by Yannick Noack in Koblenz (52nd place), Coeur d'Artichaut in Münster (57th place), Oswalds Gourmetstube in Teisnach (57th place), Zeik in Hamburg (66th place), La Société in Cologne (68th place), Cédric Schwitzer’s Gourmet-Restaurant (69th place), Sparkling Bistro in Munich and Pietsch in Wernigerode (both 83rd place). Four restaurants are new to the top 100: Clara Restaurant im Kaisersaal, in 99th place, returns to the top 100 after a month’s absence. The 100th place is shared by Cheval Blanc in Illschwang, which was last in the Top 100 in June 2023; Der Zauberlehrling, which was last in the Top 100 in January 2025; and Philipp Soldan in Frankenberg, which was last in the Top 100 in February 2025.

Details on the calculation method and how many ranking points the restaurant guide reviews yield can be found here. A total of 4,379 restaurants are currently included in the ranking. That is six fewer than in January. Compared to the start of March, 17 restaurants have received a higher score or have been newly included in the ranking. The Weberstube in Schrigiwalde-Kirschau, Dresden, has accumulated the most points within a month. Four restaurants have received a lower score than in the previous month. Inclusion in the ranking is automatic and free of charge as soon as a restaurant is reviewed in one of the major restaurant guides and achieves at least 35 ranking points. The restaurant that has accumulated the most points over the past twelve months is La Vie by Thomas Bühner in Düsseldorf, ahead of Rausch in Frankfurt am Main and Marcel von Winckelmann in Passau.
