Thomas Martin's cooking draws on the craft of French haute cuisine, interpreted with north German clarity.

Sommelier Mika Müller accompanies the kitchen with fine instinct and deep expertise. The extensive wine list combines classics with exciting discoveries and has long been one of the house's great strengths. And the aperitif on the historic Lindenterrasse is one of Hamburg's finest rituals.
