The kitchen
Thomas Martin's cooking draws on the craft of French haute cuisine, interpreted with north German clarity. Top regional and seasonal produce, classic sauces and a remarkable lightness define dishes of great precision. Today, you enjoy them in a more relaxed spirit — à la carte or as a set menu, but without any formality.
The philosophy
Thomas Martin is one of Germany's defining chefs. Trends interest him less than harmony, concentration and flavour. His cooking keeps evolving, yet stays true to its roots: French craftsmanship, top-quality produce, and the ambition to make great cooking accessible and unpretentious.
Insider tip
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.
