East
Europe meets Asia in this chic top-ranked Hamburg restaurant. Situated in the Hotel East, which was converted from an old iron foundry, the restaurant is located just off the Reeperbahn. The menu is famous for its excellent seafood, including options like fried brook trout with parsley risotto and North Sea codfish in a bread crust, but there are plenty of options for both carnivores and vegetarians. Not to be missed is the sushi menu, which features the highly popular tempura sushi boats. The decor is just as interesting, blending bright colours with curving plaster columns and exposed brick walls. Bookings are recommended.

Jacobs Restaurant
Situated in the Hotel Louis C. Jacob, the Jacobs Restaurant takes advantage of its location overlooking the Elbe River with spectacular panoramic views. The elegant restaurant is a perfect place to treat yourself while on holiday in Hamburg, as the dining room's crystal chandeliers provide a romantic backdrop. While there's no dress code, you'll feel more comfortable in semiformal dress. Be sure to ask for a seat on the terrace on warm evenings, but remember to book ahead.
