Restaurant Lichtblick Freiburg in Freiburg im Breisgau

Dieses Restaurant gibt es tatsächlich schon seit fast 20 Jahren in einer prominenten Lage von Freiburg und es hat überlebt und ist durchweg gut seriös bekömmlich angenehm wie gesagt ein Lichtblick

A true gem – an all-round perfect experience! We had the great pleasure of dining at Lichtblick and it was an absolute delight from start to finish! As soon as you enter the restaurant you feel at home. The stylish and thoughtful interior creates an elegant yet cozy atmosphere. Every detail – from the lighting to the table decoration – is chosen with a lot of love and taste. The food was simply fantastic! Each course was a little taste explosion, with fresh, high-quality ingredients and creative presentation. We were particularly impressed by the perfect balance of flavors and the harmonious composition of the dishes. You can immediately tell that the cooking here is done with passion and skill. The staff also deserve high praise. The service was attentive, warm and professional – just the right mix of friendliness and restraint. Our wishes were met with a smile and the waitress's recommendations were first class. All in all, our visit to the Lichtblick was a culinary highlight. If you are looking for excellent food, beautiful ambience and first-class service, you should not miss this restaurant. We'll definitely be back! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – Unreserved recommendation!

Very courteous service, our favorite restaurant in Freiburg. Food is very tasty.

Great food with exceptional service in Freiburg. Would highly reccomend.

This is the perfect dining experience: innovative and delicious food; artistic, well-lighted and warm atmosphere; hosted by attentive, charming and knowledgeable staff.

Wow, looking forward to next time

Very nice and small restaurant. The food was very delicious and the service was extremely friendly. Personally, I can recommend the corn-fed chicken breast. The risotto with artichokes is really suitable. In any case, we'll eat there again.

The restaurant is small but nice, well suited for a tasty lunch with a limited selection, but good quality. The chef knows his craft and the team is very attentive. The coffee was very good

Nous avons découvert ce restaurant sous les conseils de la postière locale 😉 Accueil, service et repas étaient très bien et nous conseillons ce restaurant d’habitués…

Very good food, good wine, friendly service. Top. We'll be back.

Evening Everything was great from start to finish. We'd love to come back. Big compliments to everyone.

We were there last night and can recommend it 100%. Small menu but quality more than very good! The meat - tender as butter and one of the best I've ever tasted! Service was very friendly, you immediately felt welcome! The restaurant is rather small, when it's full you can tell by the noise, but that's not a bad thing. We'd love to come back!

Interesting dishes, fine beers, pleasant service!

To write a slightly different review: We particularly like to combine shopping in the city with lunch at Lichtblick (Monday to Friday). It is located in the idyllic Konviktstr. in the pedestrian zone just a few minutes' walk from the Schloßberg car park - this is advantageous when it rains. Three dishes are offered at lunch: one with meat, one with fish and a third vegetarian/vegan. Each dish comes with a soup or salad and a coffee, all for under €20. But that's not what's special: it's more the unconventional, creative composition of the dishes and their exquisite preparation: top gastronomy. We often base the day of our visit to the city on the menu at the Lichtblick, which can be viewed in advance on the website for the entire week. If the planned visit is canceled, the menu gives us great suggestions for cooking ourselves (even if the result doesn't keep up with the bright spot). The only drawback: the restaurant is not very spacious, the tables are close together, so the (impeccable) service always has to scurry past in the immediate vicinity. Never mind!

Enjoyed very good flanksteak..schnitzel and apple strudel.

Top, very well eaten and the service was top. The fried veal boiled beef, absolutely unique. We will be happy to come back the next time we visit Freiburg.

Great food, nice staff and great location. Always happy 😃

We had a lovely girls' evening with delicious seasonal food and great wines. Very courteous, unobtrusive service. Pleasant atmosphere. Only the guest room and the toilets could use modernization. Otherwise everything was great.

Super tasty lunch and courteous service

Nice place ! A bit expensive for what it is.

Very good food in a relaxed atmosphere and excellent service. Keep it up! Many restaurants can no longer do this.

Excelente restaurante con personal amable y un menú muy bueno / variado. Disfrutamos de nuestra primera visita tanto que volvimos una segunda vez. En nuestra primera visita mi marido tenía toda la lubina que dijo que era uno de los mejores que había tenido. Tenía el filete de zanahoria que también era muy bueno. En nuestra segunda visita mi marido comió la pechuga de pollo con risotto de calabaza y yo la polenta de naranja con queso de cabra y ratatouille, ambas estaban excelentes. El strudel de manzana y el sorbete de grosella negra también fueron excelentes.

Food and service top, there is room for improvement in the ambience

Really very good cuisine at fair prices. Definitely recommended. Parking garage 50 meters away.

Very friendly service, very extensive wine list, very good quality. Very happy again 👍

Great price-performance ratio, very nice staff!

A very good restaurant away from the main arteries. Ideal for an intimate or family meal. I recommend the risotto or fish dishes in particular. Also taste the local wines.

Wir waren am 28.8. im Restaurant Lichtblick zum Abendessen und ich hatte danach eine Bewertung geschrieben die nicht veröffentlicht wurde. Bitte um Rückmeldung warum! Mit freundlichen Grüßen Wilfried Huber

Very well eaten, the eye eats too. Good recommendation for the wine 🍷 everything went well, it was a nice evening..

Es gibt eine kleine Mittagskarte mit drei Gerichten zum Preis von 17,00 EUR bis 19,50 EUR inkl. Suppe oder Salat und Kaffee sowie 3 verschiedene Salatteller zwischen 22,50 EUR und 26,50 EUR. Gerichte von der Karte werden nicht angeboten. Es gibt 2 Desserts zur Auswahl (gutes Tiramisu und Apfelstrudel ohne Vanillesauce aber mit Vanilleeis). Es ist im kleinen Restaurant sehr eng und der Geräuschpegel ist hoch. Der Service ist freundlich, aber etwas laienhaft. Kreditkartenzahlung war aufgrund eines Defekts des Gerätes nicht möglich.

Excellent cuisine, great service and lovely ambience. Highly recommended. Reserve your table early! We'll definitely come back.

We loved the place, very authentic and friendly service. A great place for a long conversation with a good meal. The dishes were special, and it was clear and well-received that the chef likes to experiment and give something special to their customers.

Highly recommended for a relaxing evening.

Beautiful location, great food, good wines. The very friendly and professional staff had a challenge providing us thirsty guests with wine and water, but that is criticism at a high level. Every now and then there was a loud schnitzel knock coming from the kitchen, but we found it very nice in the restaurant.

Very tasty and also very friendly service 🤩

Something different Tasty, and priced a little higher, but ok Nice service

If you’re an American person of color, especially a female solo traveler I do NOT recommend coming here! I went to have lunch and saw 6 empty tables. I stood waiting for a good few minutes while the waiters ignored my existance. When I asked for a table for 1 I was turned away and was told they are all reserved and they cannot serve me. How are 6 empty tables reserved yet no one is sitting there? I wasn’t planning on having an hour long lunch! I’m appalled at the service as I’ve never been turned away before by a restaurant and this feels very discriminatory.

Super! Great food and great service, very helpful and welcoming!

Very friendly service. Food was cooked to perfection. Super.

La comida era generalmente buena, pero el schitzle de cerdo era un poco aburrido sin verduras. El servicio era bueno y había un ambiente animado.

Delicious food, friendly staff. Well worth visiting.

Very good restaurant. Unfortunately there wasn't that much space outside and it was a bit hot inside. Otherwise I can't complain about anything. Would eat there again

Fine food and nice service. Recommendation !

Excellent lunch in an excellent location. Good value and original menu

Our family had a very pleasant dinner on a Saturday evening. The waiter and waitress were very friendly and accommodating. We were initially inside but when a table outside became available, they allowed us to move. The food was very well prepared and especially the salad with semsame chicken was delicious, juicy and soft. The highlight of our experience was with lost and found: we forgot our (quite expensive digital mirrorless) camera with lots of vacation pictures on a chair outside and only realized a day later; the waiter had found it and when we contacted the restaurant, they immediately sent it to us via DHL. They did not even ask for reimbursement of the shipping cost!

We were there spontaneously on a Saturday and were given a very nice table by the window. All the staff are extremely nice, the food is a real pleasure experience, sophisticated combinations, beautifully prepared. The selection of wines and drinks is also very appealing. The prices are appropriate for what is offered. We were thrilled and will be visiting again soon. Update: Even after repeated visits, the staff and food are always top notch. Simply class.

Nice staff, good cuisine, you don't need anything more. Thanks to you

Outside next to the restaurant in the beautiful city. Good and very tasty food.

Still one of the best lunch spots in Freiburg.

Food is great. The price-performance ratio is right. The service is very friendly and attentive.

Wir feierten unseren Geburtstag. Eine Perle von Restaurant. Die Bedienung präsent, aber nicht aufdringlich. Sehr gute Empfehlungen erhalten. Das Ambiente, Service, Essen hat alles gepasst. Wir kommen auf jedenfall wieder.

Atmosphere like being on holiday in Italy. Service is nothing inferior. Vegetarian cuisine highly recommended

I've never eaten as bad as tonight!!! The salad was an absolute disaster!!! Too much oil No vinegar Salt or pepper!!! There was no bread either!!! I was offered something new... but I didn't want anything more because I was very, very disappointed!!! The service staff was great!!! But I certainly won't be back because of the bad food!!!

Very, very nice 👍 Delicious food, great location, unconventional service 😉, but very nice.

Food good and service friendly and attentive.

The “Lichtblick” is located in a beautiful old town alley in Freiburg. Nomen is omen? Rather: We experienced the Lichtblick as a highlight: great food, great ambience, super friendly and expert service! Our return is guaranteed.

We were looking for the Freiburg/Breisg area. Something suitable for lunch! After all, it's hard to get something with 9 people without a reservation! The friendly waiter put a few tables together for us and we were served the best 300g steak anywhere! Excellent cuisine, very nice, friendly staff and a rustic atmosphere! Highly recommended🔝🙏👏 Thank you for your courtesy and the great hospitality See you soon 🙏Bus driver Mario

Verwendung von Convience- Produkten. Rösti als Fertigprodukt. Salat als Tiefkühlkost, Preis-Leistung zu teuer, Miniportionen, unfreundlicher Service !

Older waitress annoyed and unfriendly! to the guests.

There a few words to describe our experience here, let’s star from the beginning. It is not cheap but affordable, aperitivos are good, we had as starter bread with goat cheese, 100% recommended, ask the waiter for suggestions on how to pair your wine with the, food, we always do this and we haven’t regretted our selection. They also offer a special menu which could be a good option if you want to try different things. Looking for finest cuisine in Freiburg, this is a good one.

From the outside the restaurant is quite inconspicuous. Everything outside was occupied/reserved. Upon request (we wanted to sit outside) an additional table was quickly brought outside for us. Service personal, careful and friendly. Food / 3 course menu very tasty. Simple menu, but something for everyone. We would be happy to recommend this “ray of hope” in Freiburg.

Wir haben zu Abend gegessen. Ich hatte Kalbstafelspitz „Medium“ gebraten dazu Rote Bete-Meerrettich-Risotto. Meine Frau bestellte Maishähnchenbrust mit Kräutern gebraten dazu Spargel-Risotto. Gute Portionen und sehr schmackhaft. Sehr empfehlenswert. Stoffservietten runden den Besuch ab.

Restaurant in a class of its own simply divine delicious food friendly service and nice Atmosphere, prices commensurate with the quality We'll be back so quickly!

Beautiful, super tasty and incredibly nice service!! We and our dachshund felt very comfortable.

Spontaneous visit based on a recommendation in RÄDLE magazine - it was simply a pleasure! Great selection and super tasty. Very friendly service 👍

Very friendly and warm service! The food was good and inexpensive.

Today we were guests in Freiburg and around lunchtime we asked about a restaurant on Google maps that had many good reviews. We came across the Lichtblick restaurant. The sign at the entrance showed three different price ranges, meat, vegetarian and fish. All included soup or salad and an espresso or cappuccino. You couldn't tell that the menus only offered one dish... it's a shame! When we were given a seat in the very back corner of the restaurant that was actually completely reserved, it didn't matter! Small Daughter is hungry. Unfortunately, there was no option to order something à la card, according to the waitress. What bothered us the most was that the waitress didn't feel welcome but rather like a troublemaker. We didn't get the espresso or cappuccino that came with it. Maybe the manager of the restaurant can take the review as constructive criticism and have a conversation with his employee. Good luck for the future 👍

The food was fantastic, the wine was good too, we sat very nicely and the waiters were very friendly

Very unfriendly towards tourists… No green salad with the schnitzel 🥲

Wir haben draußen gesessen und vorzüglich gespeist. Risotto, Kalbstafelspitz, Creme Brûlée, Gutedel …. Alles super !!!! Unbedingt ausprobieren und verwöhnen lassen. :-)

To the kitchen: Food was very good. Beef fillet tender as butter, asparagus risotto with plenty of asparagus. Hand-beaten Zabaione to kneel down 😍 Everything is finely seasoned and of very good quality at a reasonable price. About the service: Friendly welcome, very nice. But unfortunately some of the attention could still be worked on. Background noise is very high with many guests. Nevertheless, we were satisfied and would come again.

Very good food, nice service and good wines, everything fits.

We were there spontaneously last night and got a nice table! Nice service, great food, a visual delight too! Fair prices, good wines! We'd love to come back!

Great, high-quality lunch, nice team, we come here again and again on our trip to Freiburg, value for money is right.

We were at Lichtblick for my birthday dinner for two. Cute, great restaurant with few seats. So reservation is a must. Great, attentive and cheerful service, you remember what you order without paper or pen, which I find extremely impressive. The food is fresh, seasonal and prepared with heart. The individual components are definitely homemade and with a great sophistication. The 3 course menu costs around €50, which is super fair and really appropriate for the end products. There is also a 4-course menu and a “normal” menu. We were completely satisfied and would really, really like to come back. Thanks!

Very good food, very pleasant service and environment

The food was very good as usual. Unfortunately, we (group) had the feeling that evening that the staff were slightly annoyed or at least not motivated... and to be dispatched in order to be out again as quickly as possible.

The service is very friendly and accommodating. The food is excellent, no matter what you eat.

Ein Freund hat das Lokal ausgesucht, es war mein erster Besuch! Als Vorspeise hatte ich Ziegenfrischkäse auf Ciabatta, Hauptgericht Zanderfilet kross gebraten mit Blattspinat, sehr lecker. Als Nachtisch 2 Kugel Sorbet im Porzellanschiffchen, es sah nicht nur gut aus, es schmeckte auch so. Die Preise sind der Qualität angemessen. Schade fand ich nur, dass einige Tische nicht besetzt waren.

sehr sympathisches aufmerksames Personal, relativ enges Restaurant, spezieller Eingang, das Essen war sehr köstlich und warm, kommen wieder.

Very tasty food, you can always recommend the “chef’s menu”! Super friendly service and a very cozy atmosphere. Have been here four times and would love to come back!

Small restaurant with a small but fine menu; very friendly and competent service; delicious and beautifully prepared food, good wine recommendations. We recommend!

The best culinary restaurant in all of Freiburg

Five of us went for a business lunch. Everyone was excited. I had the marinated salmon - a dream! The main course was the pike perch fillet. Wonderful!

Great food good and attentive service. Very good food tolerance. So it was freshly made. Thank you very much and again at any time.

A real treat 😋. You have to try it 🤗

Small but nice resto, the seating is quite tight, so there is a bit of a loss of “intimacy”…. But… we were able to experience a sensational evening. Fantastic food, very good wines and really sensational service from Gabriele!!!! Gabriele looked after us perfectly, was extremely friendly, always had a humorous comment and very good recommendations. On top of that we got a tailor made dessert from him which was simply heavenly. Thank you Gabriele for the experience, we will definitely be back.

Thank you very much for the great and delicious food, not only will your eyes eat it, you will also be full! Good portion size. Friendly and very attentive service, always there, but not intrusive or annoying. Gladly again, small but nice. Price-performance Top. Wine/schnapps menu can be expanded. Keep it up❤️✌️👍

The service was evident that evening, as well as the kitchen overwhelmed. We were there with 4 people. 2 fish dishes were served almost raw, although according to the menu they were fried until crispy. A corn-fed chicken was also not cooked through inside. Service was extremely slow. However, wine was OK. Unfortunately the evening was ruined!

This afternoon in random streets. 3 different dishes every day. We chose the beef which was cooked to perfection with sweet potato puree and fried parsley… little sauce… with salad and complimentary coffee with the dish. 18€50…perfect. A bit noisy room

My girlfriend and I went there yesterday evening, great food, great atmosphere and great service. We will definitely come back next time we are in Freiburg!

Es war einfach ein wunderschöner Abend . Das Essen , ich hatte das 4 Gänge Menü. Da gab es wirklich nichts zu meckern. Der Service war ebenso Top. Ich kann Lichtblick nur empfehlen.

Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis, lecker, freundlich, nett und zuvorkommend

Essen war super. Der Service lässt zu wünschen übrig. Füllten uns nicht Willkommen und das trübte und den ganzen Abend. Wir kommen leider nicht wieder.

Not the cheapest place, but SO worth it. One of the few places in Fr where you can still eat well, if you don’t want to go really deep in your pockets as in Chez Eric or Wolfshöhle. Very friendly and professional staff, excellent food, well combined menus and great wines. A lovely experience all over, which has become the exception in this town’s gastroscape.

Wir waren hellauf begeistert. Service Top, Essen ein Gaumenschmaus und ansprechend serviert. Der Name ist Gesetz: Wirklich ein Lichtblick in Freiburgs Restaurant - Landschaft. Weiter so! Wir kommen wieder!!!

Essen und Service einfach nur top. Sehr zu empfehlen. Ambiente hat noch etwas Ludt aber liegt eher an der Größe… gerne wieder

Essen und Service waren sehr gut. Wir werden wieder kommen.

Sehr gutes Essen und freundliches Personal. Gerne wieder

Service is warm+wonderful, and the food was perfection! We were the only tourists there so I guess we found a local gem.. an unforgettable meal indeed!
