Beautiful food in a casual setting. The restaurant is really small so you should definitely reserve a table before coming. Staff is friendly and helpful, not too intruding into the private space of the guests.

It's a seafood restaurant but there are many meat options and also vegan ones.

Their food is pretty good, but also not too spectacular. The pasta seems tobe homemade and super delicious - chewy and comforting. The bread and whatever the dipping sauce/cheese was amazing.

For a seafood restaurant, I expected the salmon to be better. It was a tiny bit too dry and needs more seasoning when I was there. The Parmesan foam looks nice, but doesn't really contribute much to the flavor of the dishes.

Oh, and high praise to the silverware!

The food is absolutely fantastic: a pure joy for the mouth and great for the eyes too. The service is perfect and the wine pairing fabulous! The fifth star is missing because the size of the dining table and the distance from the other tables is not enough ( more suited to a diner than to a starred restaurant).

Pricey but well worth it. This is a small restaurant, with very few tables, so reservations are necessary. The menu consists of three options, 4, 6 or 8 courses. All can be enjoyed with a wine pairing. We picked the 8-course menu with wine pairing and it was absolutely super. We found the fish dishes very creative and preferred them over the meat, but also the meat was excellent. The amuse-bouche was different and delicious, and every course stood out in its own way. The dessert was creative as well, served in a small pint glass, or seidel in German. The wine pairing was excellent with a wide range of wines. The albariño was probably our favorite but hard to judge as each wine was very well matched with the food.
Our waiter was very professional and knowledgeable and did a great job also explaining why they had picked the various wines with the food.
The dinner took around three hours in total, so you should not come here under time pressure. We enjoyed the dinner very much and will come back.

Jellyfish is definitely shooting for the (Michelin) stars with their menu, but unfortunately they’ve landed somewhat in culinary no man’s land. Their amuse bouche started well but the momentum didn’t continue. Some of their flavour combinations were odd (i.e. subjective) but the execution on some dishes weren’t consistent (i.e. objectively not that good). Don’t get me wrong, the food here is nice but for the price point (easily 200€+ for a 6 course with wine), you’re not really getting Michelin star value.

I wish I could leave 10 stars, because it is really worth it. Perfect from the start to the end for the 4 course menu. Loved it!

The restaurant itself is very cozy and tastefully decorated and the service was great. The wines paired with our 5 course dinner were amazing as well but the food was good, not great. We expected more from a Michelin star restaurant. Even though there was an explosion of taste for our taste buds, it wasn’t really that tasty. For my liking, it was a bit over the top with the ingredient experimenting. And since we came there mainly for the food, I give it 3 stars.

The service staff were incredibly kind and sweet, cozy setting, and delicious food.

Would definitely recommend reserving a table ahead of time as it is small so it will fill up quickly if you don’t arrive right at opening.
