Der Butt - Fischrestaurant in Jever

If fish, then in butter. Nice restaurant and the service is just as quick as the plaice in the water. Very friendly and passionately recommends the fish dishes on the menu. We had such a great and extremely delicious evening at Butt!

Friendly service, fast and delicious food. Were there for the first time and are thrilled to come back Note for others, even if you are good eaters, you don't need a starter 😄 in our experience it was too much BUT so now we still have food for tomorrow 😉😁

Very good fresh fish and great service.

Very friendly service. Fish platter was plentiful with freshly caught fish. Recommended fish restaurant.

A really great restaurant with super fresh fish. We had dinner there with 3 people. We had a fish platter once and tuna twice, all with fried potatoes, cucumber salad and crabs. Everything is very 😋 delicious. The service was very friendly and funny. We'll definitely be back!

Everything is still perfect, tasty and very friendly. Always my pleasure.

Kutterplatte was not fresh on Christmas Day as advertised

Vor Wochen tel. einen Tisch für 2 Personen reserviert. Hat gut geklappt. Die Kellnerin kam an den Tisch unf fragte nach dem Wunschgetränk. Wir baten um die Karte, um die Getränkeauswahl sondieren zu können. Grundsätzlich finde ich es befremdlich, Platz genommen zu haben und gleich den Getränkewunsch bekannt geben zu müssen Enttäuschend war die Tatsache, dass die Speisekarte mit dem Hinweis überreicht wurde, dass 3 Gerichte nicht verfügbar wären, da am nächsten Tag die Karte auf Silvester umgestellt würde. Wertes Butt Team: Es gibt Gäste, die kommen auch nach einer Internetrecherche ins Restaurant und hätten gerne eines der aufgeführten Gerichte. Insbesondere, da die Speisekarte wohltuend klein ausfällt. Die bestellte Flasche Mineralwasser wurde zwar verschlossen an den Tisch gebracht, war aber bereits vorher geöffnet worden, da das Verschlußsiegel fehlte. Das Preisniveau des Wasser's erscheint mir für 7,90 € unangemessen hoch, da es sich um ein normales Speiserestaurant handelt. In Ostfriesland ist das Preisgefüge günstiger, als im Butt. Das Essen war okay, aber auch nicht mehr. Oder anders ausgedrückt: Es war mal besser. Zum Schluß, vielleicht gehört es nicht hierhin. Die Herrentoilette ist zwar sauber, riecht aber erbärmlich nach Urin. Der Geruch zieht leider ins Restaurant, die meisten Gäste werden es wohl nicht intensiv wahrnehmen, aber Menschen mit empfindlicher Nase leiden bedauerlich. Wir werden leider nicht wiederkommen. .

Very tasty, the fish platters are highly recommended. We always come to eat there on our wedding day and are always thrilled. Thanks for the nice table

Very nice restaurant with delicious fish and friendly service. Had lunch there yesterday and it was really, really good. The service was also very friendly.

Absolute madness! I've never had such good fish in my LIFE! Simply great!

The food was very tasty!!! Only recommended!!!

We were here with a group of 10 people. We had reserved and the tables were ready in the back of the restaurant. Very friendly welcome and also very attentive staff. The selection and explanations of the menu for “fish amateurs” were very good and understandable. The food came surprisingly quickly and everyone enjoyed it. The 38 year old (40) ???? deserves special recognition. Service, with the personal “you” we immediately felt very comfortable. She always had a good time. Keep it up..... Greetings from the Rhenish Jung..... (I'm assuming your memory)

Great food, good prices, great team... What more could you want? We are happy to accept a half hour journey. An absolute recommendation!

We went to the restaurant with four people and after a very nice evening we made a reservation for the next evening. We couldn't have eaten better and had two lovely evenings, which we also have to thank the excellent team for. Thank you for that!!!

Absolutely recommended. Thank you for the lovely welcome with your four-legged friends ❤️

Wir hatten für Samstag Ende November abends um 17.30 reserviert. Kaum hatten wir uns gesetzt, hielt uns die Bedienung die Karte unter die Nase und empfahl den frischen Fisch (Fischplatte 34,90). Da ich Matjes essen wollte und auch bestellte, bedauerte dies die Bedienung, und erfragte die Getränke. Kaum waren die Getränke 5 Min später angeliefert, kam auch schon das Essen. Wie die Küche das hinbekommen hat, ist mir ein Rätsel. Alle 4 Fischfilets mit Gräten sahen quasi identisch aus, in der Panade zstzlich eine halbe Handvoll Krabben und 2 Stück Zitronenschnitzel. Die Bedienung erklärte kurz was was ist, Seezunge; Scholle, 2 x Klische. Die Matjes (17,90) waren etwas lieblos auf den Teller geworfen, die Hausfrauensauce separat, in ihrer Konsistenz nicht schlüssig zu erschmecken. Geschmacklich war das Essen okay, wenn auch nicht besonders, die Präsentation der Mahlzeiten ist meiner Ansicht nach verbesserungswürdig. Was uns gestört hat, war eher der Kantinencharakter, und das man das Gefühl hatte, möglichst schnell den Platz wieder frei machen zu sollen, für die nächsten Gäste. So waren wir um 18.20 pünktlich und um knapp 80 € ärmer wieder auf der Strasse.

The fish (and the pork) were super fresh and really well prepared. The service is super nice and takes time for each guest and gives you perfect advice. The regular guests also bring in a great atmosphere and complement the advice. Simply comfortable

Very decent restaurant, fish was plentiful and very well prepared.

If you want to eat freshly caught fish, excellently prepared, in a stylish and friendly atmosphere, this is the place for you. For me it was a taste experience. This didn't just affect the fish. The fried potatoes and bacon beans were also excellent. I will definitely come back here. It is particularly worth mentioning that dogs are welcome and in summer you can also dine outside.

Excellent fish dishes in Jever! The restaurant “Der Butt” is my first recommendation for very well prepared fish in Jever. Whether with friends or family, the Butt offers a pleasant and friendly atmosphere for a wonderful evening together. Freshly caught fish, good cuisine and a great team!

We were here with four people and received a very friendly welcome. We were given the “Greetsieler Kutterplatte” recommended and it was awesome. We were totally thrilled. First there was a cucumber salad, then the fish platter with melted butter and two bowls of fried potatoes for four people. We have rarely eaten such excellent quality fish. “The Butt” is highly recommended.

Good food, professional service, first class

The food (fish) was great, as was the service at our table...unfortunately we were sitting awkwardly and noticed a lot of the interaction between the employees and they all somehow seemed very tense. Too bad. Otherwise it was really nice

Our favorite restaurant. Great food, great service. Always great so far!

I have never eaten such delicious plaice anywhere. Consistent quality for years.

We were very satisfied and I would actually have liked to give it 5 stars. But as in other reviews, I also find it a bit strange how emphatically the freshly caught fish (coincidentally the most expensive dishes) is advertised as a daily menu that is apparently permanently available. When none of our group chose this, the waitress expressed disappointment... (Why? Are the other dishes a bit inferior??) Overall, the service there is very good and friendly, but also a bit special, which certainly not everyone likes. Overall, definitely recommended, a 4 star rating hardly hurts the cut...

We were immediately recommended the freshly caught fish of the day. Otherwise frozen fish. We found €34 very expensive and split it between us. It was perfect for the two of us. Sufficient and really delicious. Service was also very friendly and helpful.

Super tasty, fish platter. Serve with Riesling and finish with red Frisian-style porridge. Everything is an experience.

Best freshly caught fish. Very friendly and authentic service. Loving and thoughtful! Spontaneously thought of it on Saturday evening and luckily got the best table! 5 stars and a reunion is promised, no journey is too far for this restaurant!

Leider eiskalt abgeblitzt… wir waren an einem Samstag pünktlich um 17:30 Uhr vor Ort, hatten nicht reserviert und fragten nach einem freien Tisch. Wir waren zu zweit mit kleinem Hund. Vor der Tür hatten wir uns schon auf der aushängenden Karte ein Gericht ausgesucht ( Ofenkartoffel mit Krabben). Nach meiner Frage musste die Kellnerin Rücksprache mit ihrer Kollegin halten. Die Antwort dann hat uns mehr als verblüfft! Wir könnten einen Tisch bekommen, aber nur, wenn wir fangfrischen Fisch bestellen würden. Mein Einwand, dass wir gerne Ofenkartoffeln essen würden, wurde verneint. Da frage ich mich: Verdient man bei spontanen Gästen mehr am fangfrischen Fisch? Passte der Hund nicht? Wir empfanden diese Antwort als äußerst unangenehm und unfreundlich und haben auf den freien Tisch verzichtet. Schade, so gewinnt man keine Kunden.

Unfortunately we were turned down cold... we were there at 5:30 p.m. sharp on a Saturday, hadn't made a reservation and asked for a free table. There were two of us with a small dog. In front of the door we had already chosen a dish from the menu posted (baked potato with crabs). After my question, the waitress had to consult with her colleague. The answer then more than amazed us! We could get a table, but only if we ordered freshly caught fish. My objection that we would like to eat baked potatoes was denied. So I ask myself: Do you earn more from freshly caught fish when you have spontaneous guests? Did the dog not fit? We found this answer extremely unpleasant and unfriendly and decided against the free table. It's a shame, you don't win any customers that way.

We had the Greetsieler Kutterplatte for 2 people with fried potatoes and cucumber salad and freshly tapped Jever. We haven't eaten and drunk so well in a long time. The fish was on point, the fried potatoes were plentiful and tasty, the cucumber salad went well with the fish and the fried potatoes. The price-performance ratio is right. Very nice and attentive employees. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and very well maintained. It is right next to a parking lot and the pedestrian zone. Dogs are welcome. Kind regards from Metty, Petra and Bruce.

Top food. Top service. Fresh fish. And light liqueur afterwards

Very good freshly caught plaice. We were there at 7 and 8 p.m. Well attended. Unfortunately we couldn't order dessert, I think it was due to staffing reasons, but I'm not sure.

The goods are always very fresh and good. The cucumber salad doesn't suit my taste. My recommendation is the plaice.

We have the restaurant sqm 1.9. Visited with 3 people following a recommendation from the internet. We were thrilled: nice atmosphere, very friendly and competent service and fish of super quality. The price/performance ratio is great. The evening was an experience for the taste buds! Absolutely recommended.

Great restaurant, super nice staff and rarely eaten such good fresh fish. Absolutely recommended! And it's worth waiting for a spot!

A fantastic fish restaurant. Fish is local catch.

Delicious fish in a family atmosphere

Great fish, great service, quick-witted and top

Excellent, very good fish restaurant, very good service

An absolute recommendation is this nice fish restaurant in a small hidden alley. It is said to be the only restaurant that is still supplied with fresh fish from the North Sea. We had the fish platter for two with fried potatoes. There was also cucumber salad. Filleting was also demonstrated again at the table. Very friendly, attentive service. We recommend the restaurant and would be happy to come back.

August 11, 2024 We were here in Jever for the old town festival! Very nicely set up and something for everyone... music stages... rides and lots of culinary delights 👍🏻 The restaurant 'Der Butt' was found almost by chance. We were in the right place here because we like to eat fish. Since the evening was still nice and warm, we took a seat outside. We received quick and friendly advice and service. When our food was served our mouths were already watering 😂and it was so delicious!! We'll definitely be back soon 👍🏻

Coincidence led us to the Butt on a Thursday evening. We didn't have a reservation. With a bit of chaos in the service and a pinch of luck, we were assigned an outside table. Since we wanted to be surprised, we ordered the daily special. Basically the fish was very tasty. However, I was missing a certain something for the last star that I can't describe exactly. The price is very high. Maybe fried a little crispier, more choice of side dishes or maybe not all types of fish served breaded. The preparation form was very hearty and buttery. A kind tip for the service, as a guest I feel like a troublemaker in the system. The Nordic, cool, friendly manner is generally fine. But your stress must not be passed on to the customer. Tries to bring some calmness to the operation with more structure.

Fresh fish fishing is not possible. Cutter plaice or fish platter, both at their best.

Were here for the first time with friends for their 30th wedding anniversary! The fish platter was super tasty, very nice and courteous boss 👌 Absolutely recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really authentic restaurant. The service was great! Attentive but not intrusive. And the fresh cutter plate was a poem. We'll definitely be back 😊

A very nice, cozy restaurant with freshly caught fish. The meal was delicious. Since the restaurant is always very busy, you should make a table reservation as a precaution.

Frischer Fisch, sehr gutes Essen (der Fisch als auch die Beilagen), perfekter Service, Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis absolut passend, Essen kam schnell, gemütliche Atmosphäre. Es blieben keine Wünsche offen! Wow!

The freshest fish in Jever, prepared very tasty... a real treat! Plus warm service...what more could you want.

If freshly caught fish, then in Der Butt! Just good

The Butt is a somewhat special restaurant. There is freshly caught fish that is really good. Fresh, very tasty and well prepared. There is also a map with around 15 other positions. Was then informed right at the beginning that half of them would not be available today. A risk that is of course always present with fresh fish. The fried potatoes were okay, but nothing more. The service is a Frisian original. Nice, friendly, responsive, but… Of course, I'll tell you where to go. (Our recommendation today is the Greetsieler Kutterplatte, the Greetsieler Kutterplatte, the Greetsieler Kutterplatte, lest you choose anything else 😉) All in all, it was a very nice evening that we spent, with a few smiles along the way.

Very friendly staff Very tasty food Come again Kind regards from the Koch family

Very friendly service, very good food!

Really great fish restaurant. Everything delicious and freshly prepared.

We'll be back 🤩 Very tasty food, great service.

Absolutely recommended, top advice, great service, extremely tasty food in a pleasant atmosphere.8

Small but nice shop. It's better to make a reservation if you come with several people. The fish platter we had was excellent. I can always recommend it

Very friendly service. Easy setup. Kitchen simple and ok.

Can't recommend the place... The waitress only recommends three dishes as fresh...Everything else is..."just frozen fish..." We then accepted this recommendation in good faith... The "highly praised cutter plate:... three types of fish with fried potatoes and cucumber salad... was then advertised almost intrusively by the staff..... We didn't like the food at all... The fried potatoes were totally "stuffy", the cucumber salad tasted like nothing and the three types of fish were fresh but all tasted the same... Any good fish stall in the North Sea port is better... Basically, you can have first-class food in Jever in the evening... It was particularly good in the Taverna and also simply brilliant in "Groh's Kitchen..."

Once again we ate delicious fish! Of course quality has its price and this is justified! The only way to get fresher is on board the cutter

So, a fish restaurant in a class of its own, we don't have anything like it in Kiel (very sad for the city). Everything was perfect, many thanks to the team

Very nice fish restaurant with super friendly service and a chef who knows his craft. The corn plaice with crabs and cucumber salad and fried potatoes is a highlight for the low price. If you love fish, you should stop here. Very good price/performance ratio

Hello, it was really great with you! The sole with ingredients was simply delicious! 😊 Thank you very much!

This is how fish should taste... fresh and aromatic.The fried potatoes were crispy and spicy...the salad was perfect. The service was friendly, attentive (with a bell on the wall) and quick. In the end the pay was reasonable.

Spontaneous reservation, staff extremely friendly, food outstanding! Kitchen quick, freshly caught fish excellently prepared. Thanks for the experience! Great rounding off of our vacation.

Great fish restaurant. Directly in the pedestrian zone. Great freshly caught fish. Special types of fish at the request of the waiter (Skrei). The mixed fish 🐟 platter is very tasty (plaice, sole & dab = cockroach with fried potatoes & salad).

...we ended up here in the restaurant based on a recommendation and they didn't promise us too much. The fresh fish was delicious and the service was very friendly. It is definitely advisable to reserve by phone! TOP! 👍

We ate exclusively fish with several people at Butt that evening and had nothing to complain about. Only freshly caught fish was served. No frills, the emphasis should only be on the main characters, the fish. The service was also very friendly, professional and I could rely one hundred percent on your personal recommendation that evening. Thanks for a great evening.

We were thrilled, great service, great food

Sooooo delicious and sooooo genuinely friendly staff! This is unparalleled. Many thanks

Today the three of us ate a Greetsieler fish platter with 3 types of fish, cucumber salad and fried potatoes. Delicious !

We were there as a group. Everyone tasted delicious. Will definitely come back.

Hervorragendes Essen, spitzen Service, sehr herzlich. Absolute Empfehlung!!! Werden wir auf jeden Fall häufiger besuchen.

Easter Sunday family dinner at Butt, the welcome was very warm and the care was very good. The food was ok except for the fried potatoes, which seemed to have failed. The price could have been a little lower. The drinks were particularly good. The price for two people at over €70 is a lot. 65€ would have done it too.

Unfortunately not for me. In a designated fish restaurant there should be more fresh fish and not just that on a Greetsiler platter, which is offered very intensively to every customer. Unfortunately the fish is just average. Unfortunately. Never come back and no recommendation from me either.

Simply great. The service excellent. The food was terrific. What can I say, my favorite fish restaurant in Jever.

The Butt is a super cozy, smaller restaurant with friendly service. A little hidden in a small side street, but there is a parking lot right behind it and so with only a small footpath. I would recommend a reservation to everyone, the small shop quickly became busy. And some visitors after us unfortunately had to be sent away. The recommendation of freshly caught fish was really excellent. The portions are generous, but not too much. We would be happy to come back.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Food was great. The prices are completely okay

Great fish restaurant in the middle of Jever. Always worth a visit!

The Butt is a cozy and excellent fresh fish restaurant with great fish recommendations and - including the boss - friendly service staff. My wife and I were there last Friday, followed the recommendation of "winter cod fillet" in Dijon mustard sauce, potatoes and delicious homemade cucumber salad and didn't regret it. We'd be happy to come back, especially since we, as "ex-touries" and now local Jever residents, don't have that far anymore.

The Butt in Jever: A fine, well-kept one Fish restaurant, near pedestrian zone, Large parking lot behind the house, free from 3 p.m.! Open in the evenings from 5:30 p.m. with great service and advice Agreed 100%. The greeting from the kitchen was very tasty, with black olives That was right! The main course=winter Skrey with mustard sauce with potatoes and, The icing on the cake is a unique cucumber salad, just like our grandma's!! Big portion And lots of taste. The price was reasonable!! The only drawback, the drinks prices unfortunately they are overpriced. That doesn't work! I will gladly come again

In the enchanting restaurant “Der Butt” in Jever we had the pleasure of experiencing a culinary journey in a class of its own. The friendly ambience immediately created a warm atmosphere. The owner welcomed us with a warm friendliness and an informative manner that made our order an experience. Their advice on the fish we ordered gave our selection an additional, personal touch. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the cutter plaice and the Skrei winter cod. The preparation was a real feast for the palate - the fish was fresh and not overcooked. The rich and tasty ingredients helped ensure that every bite was a poem for the senses. Particularly noteworthy is the Dijon sauce for the cod, which offered a perfect harmony of taste sophistication. The service was extremely friendly and accommodating and contributed significantly to an all-round successful evening. The restaurant "Der Butt" is without a doubt absolutely recommendable and deserves not just five, but ten stars for the outstanding quality, the attentive service and the perfect price-performance ratio. A big thank you to the entire team – may success continue to accompany you on your culinary path!

Really ALWAYS freshly caught fish of great quality

Fresh fish!!! Good advice, very tasty, large portions, flexible service! However, from January 8th. initially closed due to vacation (2 weeks?) - but you should call to reserve a table anyway! 😊

Unfortunately it wasn't open yet, only from 5:30 p.m. Would have liked to come back.

Delicious fish, great service, very attentive staff, reasonable waiting time, all in all highly recommended. We would love to come back on our next vacation in Jever

Am 31.12.2023 mit Freunden einen sehr schönen Abend genossen. Die Qualität der Speisen war hervorragend. Egal ob Wolfsbarsch, Seezunge, Scholle oder Krabben und Garnelen, alles war ein Erlebnis für den Gaumen. Beim Service gab es ebenfalls nichts zu bemängeln. Jeder der in Jever Fisch essen möchte, sollte dieses Restaurant besuchen.

Danke für die wunderschöne Zeit. Essen top, Bedienung super und dazu ein fairer Preis. Und zwei Jahre später kann ich nur sagen: immer noch top! Danke für die schöne Zeit bei euch.

Absolut empfehlenswert! Super freundlicher Service und mega leckeres Essen. Fisch, Salat und Bratkartoffeln waren ausgesprochen gut. Kommen sehr gerne wieder!

Das Essen war super lecker ,der Service ist top . Von Aussen müsste mal der Maler ran .

Chefin und Personal sehr freundlich, unkompliziert, obwohl wir nicht reserviert hatten. War damals schon super 👌🏼 Hat sich nichts dran geändert *****

Sehr lecker und ein toller Service! 👍🏻

So guten Fisch und Krabben und Zubehör habe ich seit Jahren nicht gegessen. War zum ersten Mal dort und es war nicht das letzte Mal. Kann ich jeden empfehlen

Sehr kompetenter Service. Nach vielen Jahren habe ich nach Fischabstinenz habe ich mich getraut wieder Fich zu essen. Danke für eure Ruhe und Geduld. Der Fisch hat hervorragend geschmeckt. Es wird bestimmt nicht der letzte Fisch gewesen sein den ich bei Euch verzehren werde.

Sehr lecker , fangfrischer Fisch. Hervorragend. Und alle super freundlich.

Tolles Ambiente, super netter und guter Service, die Gerichte sehr sehr lecker 😋...wir kommen wieder ....geplant in 04/2024

Der Butt ist ein uriges, gemütliches Fisch-Restaurant, welches wir zufällig entdeckt hatten. Sehr netter Service. Alle Details waren stimmig. Unsere Kinder bekamen etwas zum malen bis das Essen kam, das fanden wir großartig. Wir orderten regionalen Fisch aus der Nordsee, der uns sehr gut gefiel und noch besser geschmeckt hat. Vielen Dank für den tollen Mittagstisch 🤗❤️👍🏻

Wer guten Fisch liebt, ist hier genau richtig!
