Restaurant "Zum Haifisch" in Fehmarn

The service was friendly and attentive. The food was good, both the meat and fish. In my opinion, the prices are high relative to the portion sizes; I can't completely rule out the possibility that the fish was frozen.

Genuine Nordic friendliness, super delicious food. We'll gladly come back and have Labskaus again :-))

Excellent selection of dishes, deliciously prepared and served by friendly staff. Thank you so much, it was a lovely evening.

This was our second visit today. It's definitely worth it. If we come back to Fehmarn, we'll eat here again. Great praise to the kitchen and the excellent staff.

It was a wonderful evening with the family, great food, excellent service and a lovely atmosphere.

A small restaurant specializing in fish, as the name suggests. Very friendly service. The food was also very good. A bit pricey, but the price/performance ratio is good. We look forward to our next visit.

A super meal of a schnitzel is completely satisfying.

You're greeted warmly and without hesitation! Here you experience true Nordic hospitality, and the service is top-notch. You feel right at home, and the food was fantastic! We ordered the Neptune Platter for two, and it was superb. The taste and the presentation on the platter were both modern and appealing. If you manage to snag a table by the window, you can watch the colorful hustle and bustle of the street. Thanks to the cheerful chef and the attentive gentleman behind the counter.

Very good food and the service is great

We went to Haifisch last weekend. The food was fantastic for all of us. There was absolutely nothing to complain about. The service was also excellent. Many other restaurants could learn a thing or two from them. We'll be back.

Delicious food, friendly service. We'll definitely come back again.

From the moment you step inside, you feel genuinely welcome. The atmosphere is warm and the staff very attentive. The food was simply delicious! The fish was cooked to perfection – succulent, tender, and perfectly seasoned. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates fresh, perfectly prepared fish.

Today was our first time at the Zum Haifisch restaurant, and what can we say? We only regret not having been there much sooner! From the outside, the restaurant looks rather unassuming, but as soon as you step inside, you immediately feel the cozy ambiance and warm atmosphere. The staff is simply wonderful—heartfelt, with a dry, refreshing sense of humor and always a witty remark ready. You can tell right away: hospitality is truly lived here. And the food… we've rarely eaten such good fish! Plates were passed around, as if to say, "Try this, you have to try it, it's so delicious!" And indeed: each plate was a delight in its own way, without any unnecessary frills, simply honest cuisine, and cooked to perfection. The fish was still beautifully translucent inside, exactly as it should be. The veal schnitzel was also a highlight—juicy, tender, and freshly pounded. (When do you ever hear someone pounding a schnitzel in the kitchen these days?) A huge thank you for this wonderful evening, we'll definitely be back!

By far the friendliest service – attentive, approachable, and pleasant. The food from the kitchen is appealing, well-prepared, and absolutely delicious. In short: Highly recommended!

It was our first time there, and we were immediately impressed from the moment we arrived. Our waiter, Mike, was fantastic! He was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always had a nice chat to share. I wish there were more people like him. We felt welcome and appreciated at every moment. We had a great time with Mike and are already looking forward to our next visit. The other guests also seemed to enjoy themselves. His colleagues, whom I'd also like to mention, were very kind and attentive. The food was simply delicious, straightforward, but beautifully presented. The kale was excellent, and the Jägerschnitzel was fantastic. All in all, I highly recommend this restaurant.

Delicious fish platter at a reasonable price. Extremely friendly service with a witty remark always ready. We ate there three times in one week. And certainly not the last time.

Very friendly service! Unfortunately, the food wasn't that great. The duck had skin that wasn't crispy at all. The cabbage sausage platter: the sausage wasn't very tasty; I've had much better. The texture wasn't to my liking either. Perhaps try a different sausage from the local butcher. But that's purely a matter of taste. What I found disappointing was that the mustard was only served from small plastic packets. With a dish like this, where mustard is an essential part, I expect a small dish or something similar. The other option had more of a fast-food vibe and didn't fit the restaurant's lovely ambiance. This is friendly feedback, intended to encourage improvement :) We still had a nice evening there!

Delicious food, great service, and dog-friendly. We'll definitely be back ☺️

Great food, but the service is even more exceptional and simply fantastic.

We visited the restaurant spontaneously at lunchtime at the end of October 2025 without a reservation. We received a friendly welcome upon entry, and the children were immediately given art supplies – very nice. Thank you! The menu is pleasantly extensive and offers a good selection of soups, salads, fish and meat dishes, as well as typical North German cuisine. We finally opted for Labskaus (a kind of sauerkraut) and a fish platter; the children had pollock with fried potatoes. All the dishes were lovingly prepared and tasted truly excellent. We'd love to come back!

Fine food, definitely the best fried potatoes north of the Harz Mountains, and cheerful staff; even Weinmann arrives half an hour before the kitchen closes… A definite recommendation!

Everything is top-notch, from the food to the ambiance to the service. We've been coming here for dinner almost every day while on vacation for years. The waiters are always up for a laugh. Normally, you get one funny waitress, but here, we get two. The casual banter between the guests and each other makes you feel like you're at a comedy dinner. Keep up the good work. 👍

Very good food! I had the spare ribs, a decent portion. I could have used a few more fries for my taste (but that's not necessary). Otherwise, you can have a chat with your waiter at lunchtime, and you have a nice view from the window or outside, although it was very windy.

Not only do you get delicious food here, but the staff is also very friendly and witty. I'd happily recommend it, and we'll be back.

I've rarely eaten such good spare ribs anywhere. Plus, the service was good and the atmosphere was very pleasant. The prices were reasonable.

Friendly service, expensive, delicious food! We'd be happy to treat ourselves again next year. €135 for four.

The food was absolutely delicious: the hunter's schnitzel and the lumberjack steak were fantastic. We'll definitely be back.

The waiter, Mike, was amazing. For him alone, the service deserves 6+ out of 5 stars. It couldn't be better. Friendly, courteous, and always with a good remark at the perfect time. We'd love to come back and highly recommend this restaurant. The food and drinks were also very, very good. I had the seafood trio platter. The fish was absolutely fantastic. Excellent value for money.

Fast, super friendly service and great food :)

The food was delicious, but there were far too few fried potatoes! One mini bowl for 3 people.

The staff was very friendly and attentive, and the food—herring fillet and a fish platter—was incredibly delicious. Blankets were provided for the chilly evening, and table lamps were brought out. We sat outside. There's traffic, but that doesn't detract from the evening atmosphere.

The entrance area was rustic and beautiful. Inviting and friendly. Comfortable seating. Second, fourth, and suitable for groups. Friendly staff. No one always had a funny or friendly remark on their lips. The waitress was always smiling. The lady behind the counter had everything under control with the drinks. Coloring pages were available for children if they were a little bored. The wait for food was very pleasant. It was perfect. The food was hot and more than enough for those with a "big appetite." Perfect. The price-performance ratio was very good. Highly recommended.

I highly recommend this place. It's very good and plentiful food, the waiters are very friendly and cheerful, the value for money is excellent, and the atmosphere is also very clean and comfortable. It's also a great place to go as a group! The restaurant has a few outdoor seating areas in front of the shop, as well as seating in the front area and a seating area at the back.

This was my first time at this restaurant and I'm very happy about it. I highly recommend it to everyone. The food was excellent. The service was friendly and had some cool remarks. Simply brilliant 👍👍👍 The atmosphere was fantastic. Ambiance 👍 You can also have a great conversation here. I rate this restaurant 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's not exactly cheap, but the food is of a high standard. I'll visit again as soon as I'm back on Fehmarn. ❣️❣️❣️

Very good food in a convivial atmosphere. We were there with a group. The service was very friendly, and the menu left nothing to be desired. The food and drinks arrived very quickly, and everything was very well presented, with fried potatoes and fries served in their own bowls so they weren't soggy. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Four of us came for dinner! First, some basics! The restaurant is located right on the main road through the busy town center! Many drivers park their cars here! Depending on the time of year, the traffic is extremely heavy! The cobblestones on the road create a correspondingly noisy atmosphere! The service was good, friendly, and prompt! The prices are a bit higher! Now for the food! The dream trio, three different fried fish fillets with fried potatoes and remoulade, was good (€26.90). The pirate plate (€27.90) was weak in terms of the amount of fish and the shrimp skewer, which was cooked dry! The pan-fried fish (€26.90) was neither tasty nor visually convincing, as all the fillets were overcooked. 🤷‍♂️ Due to the quality defects in the preparation, which can occur with any fried fish dish, the shark is no longer an option for us!

This restaurant is highly recommended. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The food was exceptionally good.

This is our second time here. Our children were warmly welcomed and were immediately provided with art supplies. The food and service were excellent. We'll be back soon.

Very nice people. Would love to come again. Reservations recommended!

Great food, great service. Thank you.

We were very satisfied. The service was very friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious. It's a good location in the middle of town, right at an intersection, but that's manageable. We sat outside, and there were blankets provided for the colder evenings. A big thank you.

Great food and very friendly, attentive service!

It's a shame we didn't visit this restaurant sooner, because there's certainly no better one on the island. The fish on both plates was a true delight, succulent, and the portions were quite generous. And a large bowl of fried potatoes was also very tasty. While eating out is unfortunately quite expensive these days, at least we're rewarded with a full stomach here. We certainly won't eat anywhere else when we're on vacation here. Thank you very much.

A very nice and funny waiter. It was very entertaining. The food was delicious, the portions generous. I'd be happy to come back.

What a special experience👍 We felt so comfortable! The service was super attentive, very friendly, and really on the ball. The food met and even exceeded all expectations. We'll definitely be back.

Unfortunately, this was our first time there. We've been coming to Fehmarn for so many years and have always walked past it. You pay a little more than elsewhere, but it's worth it. My wife had a schnitzel and I had the pepper rump steak. Both were fantastic. We'll now be regulars and come back every year. A huge compliment also for the friendly service. Thank you so much.

We received a very warm welcome today, and our dog was also given a very friendly welcome. We had made a reservation—which is generally only possible in the inner dining area—and were given a table in the front area. It was nice and quiet, so our young dog could learn to eat in a relaxed atmosphere. We had already seen the promising menu on the website, and so today we had the Neptune fish platter for two people. The portion size is very generous, with a total of six select fish fillets, along with the most tender calamari we've ever had. Two portions of salad with excellent dressing, delicious fried potatoes, and a delicately seasoned aioli rounded off the platter. Attractively presented and very tasty. We enjoyed it and feel the value for money is more than justified. Plus, a wonderfully pleasant chat with our waiter, a few quick remarks...that's how we like it. We like the ambiance; we prefer simple and somewhat subdued decor. We'll definitely be back.

Very nice restaurant. Our food was delicious and plentiful. My husband had Labskaus (a kind of fried fish), and I opted for the salmon on spinach with fried potatoes. The staff were busy on a Saturday night, but we still received very friendly service. Our server always had a friendly joke, and we felt welcome. It was our first time there, but certainly not our last.

We were completely satisfied and happy. Thank you, dear Mike, you're truly one of a kind and provided us with the best service. Humorous, the welcome was inviting, "like being with friends," kind to the children and dog, excellent recommendations... we immediately felt at home. That's what makes it so much fun! Oh yes, and the food was fantastic, too. A perfect lunch for our 80th birthday! But any other occasion would be fine, too. A+ with ☆.

Very good fish and meat dishes.

I stumbled upon the restaurant by chance, sat down, and felt at home. The food was super delicious. The homemade remoulade with the fish was amazing! Everyone was super nice! Regards

I picked up the food, and the food was very friendly both on the phone and when I arrived. The portions were more than sufficient. It was incredibly delicious and definitely recommended.👌🏼

Going to this restaurant was the best decision. The food was fantastic and the ambiance was lovely. The service was very friendly and passionate. If you're on Fehmarn, go to Zum Haifisch!

Super friendly service, great interior. We sat outside, but unfortunately it was very noisy due to the passing cars and the cobblestones.

A fantastic restaurant with a lovely ambiance, delicious food, good wine, and excellent service! We had a great time and will definitely be back.

This restaurant is worth a visit. The menu is extensive and offers delicious dishes. The service is very friendly and in the mood for pleasant jokes. The atmosphere in the restaurant and outside is very relaxed and pleasant. All in all, completely satisfied.

During our stay on Fehmarn, our evening at Haifisch was one of our highlights. The schnitzels were delicious, and the service was excellent. Despite the busyness, we weren't simply brushed off, but treated with wit and charm.

Super friendly staff and there was a huge amount of food.

Fantastic. A fantastic waitress, top-notch food. There were four of us here: parents and children aged 7. We didn't lack anything, and if we did, the waitress noticed and rushed over to us. We haven't experienced such service in a long time.

The food was delicious. Unfortunately, it's on the street, so it's noisy.

It was fantastic again today. Amazing, super delicious food. (Neptun Platter) Incredibly friendly staff. We'll be back. The Kielers

The food was very tasty and the waiter was very happy to do his job.

Service was friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, the fish was completely overcooked. The calamari was mushy and not cooked well. Prices were like those at a 5-star restaurant. The bill was incorrect.

Best ribs I've ever had.😍 Yes, I know, it's a fish restaurant. I got the ribs anyway.😄

The waiter was super friendly, very attentive and welcoming. He also recommended a nice, quiet beach. The food was good and delicious.

As always, it was delicious and exactly what we were looking for while passing through. The child-friendly service is worth mentioning.

The service was very good. The staff was extremely friendly, making you feel very comfortable as a guest. The food was delicious. We had pork medallions with pepper sauce and the fish platter. The price was perfectly reasonable for the good quality.

You can do it, but you don't have to. We had schnitzel hunter's style with fries, lobster soup, and vegetable fritters with salad and bread. I don't think the price of the schnitzel was justified. It was two small schnitzels, a small (really small) bowl of fries, and quite a lot of sauce. The lobster soup was okay, but nothing more. Unfortunately, the vegetable fritters were pretty bland. They tasted mostly of carrot and nothing else. Tip: Instead of packing the vegetables into an indefinable mass, prepare them with couscous and turmeric ;) The salad was a bit bitter in places. It's nice that they ask if everything is okay every now and then. Not everyone likes it; I found it annoying. The only positive thing: the waiter's jokes.

A really nice restaurant and very friendly service.

The food was excellent. The service was superb; nothing was lacking, and our waiter, Maik, was fantastic. The ambiance was very cozy and modern.

I've been to Fehmarn so many times and only now have I stopped at this restaurant. Definitely a mistake! The food is of good quality, and the staff is friendly and witty. Looking forward to my next visit

Delicious food, nice service, all around good

We were here a few years ago and came back today. We absolutely didn't regret it. Great atmosphere, absolutely impeccable staff, and more than satisfactory food.

Top restaurant on Fehmarn – first-class food and service with a comedy touch I recently visited this top restaurant on Fehmarn and was completely thrilled. The food was outstanding from the first to the last forkful. Each dish had a perfect balance of flavors, freshness, and presentation – a true taste experience. I would particularly like to highlight the service: Mike, the waiter, took the visit to a new level with his humor and unobtrusive manner. His jokes and relaxed timing were not only entertaining but also created a pleasant, friendly atmosphere. You immediately sense that he is passionate about his work and cares about each guest individually. At the same time, you feel taken seriously as a customer and are also provided with advice on everything from the menu to the right drinks. If you are looking for a pleasant, high-quality meal with a touch of humor, this restaurant on Fehmarn is definitely worth recommending. The combination of excellent food and service that almost has a comedic quality makes the evening unforgettable. Feel free to come again – maybe I'll see Mike behind the table again, who will put you in a good mood with a few good sayings.

The service is simply excellent. With a good dose of humor, even with a larger number of guests, there's no sense of stress. The kitchen crew rounds out the experience with delicious dishes.

We stopped here after a bike ride. The food and service were excellent. We highly recommend it.

Very tasty food, generous portions, friendly staff.

I highly recommend it. The food is good and plentiful. The service is good 👍. The prices are reasonable. Everything was great.

Plentiful and, above all, delicious food Great fish dishes, and the kids are also very satisfied Really great 👍 Highly recommended!!!

Highly recommended!! "Erste Sahne" (First Class), for example, is also top-notch! The service is incredibly friendly and fun! We'd be happy to come back anytime! Keep it up!

Top! Mike is awesome The rest is also top-notch The food is great - especially the tomato soup We really enjoyed it and will definitely come back again It was fun to be there It's very nice to sit outside

The waiters are very friendly and funny. The atmosphere is very nice. The price/performance ratio is right. The food is very good. I highly recommend it.

We visited the "Haifisch" today on our last day of vacation. The food was delicious and served quickly. Our super friendly and, above all, funny waitress, "Mike," deserves special praise. We laughed a lot and fondly remember such a delicious and entertaining meal. We'll definitely be back on our next vacation to Fehmarn. We would love to give more stars, but unfortunately, that's not possible. Excellent service with delicious food. Dogs and children are also very welcome here. Very family and dog-friendly.

Simply fantastic. The food was delicious, even though we arrived quite late at closing time, with 10 people. All the dishes arrived at almost the same time. ...and the waiter was a veteran, a bit snappy but sweet, a true SHARK. We'd go back anytime. Thank you.

Burg is very lively, especially when you can sit outside. I should have chosen fish instead of spare ribs for dinner.

On our little excursion, we stumbled upon this charming restaurant by chance – a true stroke of luck! Despite the busy terrace, we managed to get a free table and were able to embark on our culinary journey immediately. My tip: If you want to be on the safe side, you should definitely make a reservation in advance.👌 There were four of us out and we opted for two different platters for two people each – an excellent choice! The portions were generous, the selection creative, and the food arrived surprisingly quickly. The service? Simply fantastic – warm, attentive, with a touch of humor. The platters were an absolute taste experience: fresh, varied, and beautifully presented. My conclusion: You absolutely have to try the platters and let the chef surprise you.🤤😋 I would come back anytime.👍 Until next time – best wishes from Hamburg!🤟

Very good service, delicious food, highly recommended!

Very tasty food at fair prices. The service was very good. The waiters were funny and always had a joke on their lips. Even the kids had fun. Very good and fast service. I would eat there again.

Great food and superb service! We arrived at this restaurant with two families (five children and four adults) in bad weather, "ambush-like" without a reservation. The waiter did everything possible to accommodate us. In addition to excellent service, Mike was also the perfect entertainer for the kids. We never felt like we were disturbing anyone, even though the kids weren't exactly quiet. We were so impressed that we went back a few days later... And this time with the whole group: nine children and eight adults... this time with a reservation, of course! 😉 If you want to eat delicious fish, this is the place for you!

Wow, great location, great waiter Mike! Super kid-friendly and friendly. The food was simply amazing. Very freshly prepared and simply delicious. Pirate Platter: 1 shrimp skewer, cod fillet, and redfish fillet fried with aioli, salad, and fried potatoes Again today was awesome. We had a platter for two, for me and my child. Simply amazingly delicious. Keep it up. My daughter had the Pirate Nest: 5 fish sticks with fries We'd love to come back! Please give Cool Mike a raise.

Very tasty food, great ambience, very humorous, funny waiter

Simply delicious. Super friendly, fast service, and incredibly delicious food. It's worth it!

The food is delicious and served by very friendly staff. We had various fish dishes, each with fried potatoes. The portions are generous.

After visiting the aquarium I had a crazy desire to eat fish🤭. Incredible restaurant, very welcoming service, delicious food (I had the fish trio) and the wait was reasonable. Thanks to the team

Good location, attentive service, very tasty food, fresh fish.

A great fish restaurant with a North German, eloquent sense of humor (I like it). The prices are reasonable for the portions. My fish fillets were excellent. The restaurant is located on a somewhat busy street, but there's also plenty to see. I'll definitely be back!

Delicious and plentiful food combined with excellent service. We had the Neptune platter for two, a few drinks, and a lovely server. We'd be happy to come back 🤗

Excellent quality and a very nice selection of delicious fish dishes. Very friendly staff and generous portion sizes.

Super delicious food and world-class service in true North German style. Reserving a table in advance is a plus, and the wait time was very short, even when the restaurant was full. Highly recommended; we'll be back!

Very good food, fast and friendly service, and a little something for the kids too. We were very satisfied and would gladly come back.
