Restaurant review
Zeik, Hamburg
Our forum contributor QWERTZ says: “It was an outstanding experience overall. The positive trend, already evident in 2025, towards more refined, less heavy-handed dishes that reveal greater nuance has not only continued but has come into its own. I haven’t eaten vegetable dishes as good as those at the start of this menu for a long time. After that, the meal continued in a slightly more comforting and full-bodied vein, but the dishes were no less complex and multi-layered. This shows that attention to detail and fine-tuning pay off. I found nothing in this menu that would argue against awarding a second star to Zeik. The restaurant’s own style is becoming increasingly distinctive, refined and precise. Furthermore, I was pleased to see that the overall culinary quality has improved. The wine pairing is spot on. I was also able to sample some of the non-alcoholic options. Even though that wouldn’t be my first choice, I can say that the absence of alcohol here does not detract from the enjoyment. Sommelier Tobias Greve has also further expanded and refined the wine list. Overall, the service is genuinely relaxed, yet thoroughly professional.” (Published in May 2026)
