Restaurant Zum Seehund Gerda Münch in Helgoland

Sehr freundliches Personal und sehr leckeres Essen

Unser Besuch im Zum Seehund war leider insgesamt enttäuschend. Positiv hervorheben möchten wir lediglich den jungen rothaarigen Kellner, der sich sichtbar bemüht hat, freundlich und aufmerksam zu sein. Der übrige Service hingegen war mehr als unfreundlich und teilweise regelrecht unverschämt. Man hatte eher das Gefühl zu stören, statt als Gast willkommen zu sein. So verscheucht man Gäste leider eher, als dass man sie zum Wiederkommen bewegt. Das Essen war zudem lediglich durchschnittlich und konnte den schlechten Eindruck des Services nicht ausgleichen. Schade, denn das Restaurant hätte eigentlich Potenzial.

Wir waren vor ein paar Tagen im Seehund essen. Der Empfang war nett und freundlich. Das Essen war auch ok. Aber wir hatten gerade das Besteck abgelegt weil wir fertig waren mit essen. Da wurden uns der Teller weg genommen, gefragt ob wir einen Schnaps aufs Haus möchten. Und gleich wurde drauf hingewiesen das die Kollegin mit der Rechnung kommen würde. Es klang irgendwie nach einem Rausschmiss. Vielleicht hätten wir ja noch ein Dessert bestellen wollen aber das wäre wohl nicht mehr möglich gewesen Sehr schade

Essen frisch zubereitet und lecker. Allerdings lange Wartezeit. Bedienung sehr freundlich. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis sehr gut. Etwas beengt - wohl Helgoland-typisch. Empfehlenswert!

Hat uns sehr gefallen, gutes Essen sehr freundliche Bedienung

Tolles Ambiente und sehr nette Bedienung. Man fühlt sich als Gast sehr wohl. Das Essen schmeckt vorzüglich und ist preislich angemessen.

Kommen seit zig Jahren zum Essen dorthin, immer wieder lecker und sympathische Inhaberin! Hunde sind immer willkommen. Ich wurde 40 und deswegen musste dort gegessen werden. Leider kein Glückwunsch, wurde wohl vergessen. Fand ich etwas schade, gerade zum runden Geburtstag. Wurde telefonisch vorher mitgeteilt. Klasse SchnitzelGerichte, Preis Leistung auch gut. Unbedingt vorher reservieren! Die neue? Bedienung könnte allerdings etwas freundlicher sein. Dennoch alles in allem top!

Ein wirklich sehr nettes Restaurant mit leckerem Essen und freundlicher Bedienung. Preise sind absolut fair. Reservierung wird empfohlen, ging für uns jedoch auch ohne.

Freundlicher Service man fühlt sich willkommen.

Tolles Essen nettes Personal gerne wieder

Wirklich schlecht, unglaublich schlecht. Wir warteten 30 Minuten, bevor überhaupt unsere Bestellung aufgenommen wurde. Dann dauerte es weitere 30 Minuten, bis die Hälfte unserer Gruppe ihr Essen und ihre Getränke bekam. Jedes andere Restaurant ist besser.

Tisch für zwei um 19:00 Uhr . Bestellt, Essen bekommen, es war okay, schlicht und etwas phantasieloser Salat mit Garnelen und 2 Garnelenspieße. Dann kam lange keine Bedienung und als wir um 20:20 Nachtisch bestellen wollten, bekamen wir die Information, die Küche ist schon geschlossen und als Tipp: Sie können morgen gerne Wiederkommen. Mit Sicherheit nicht!

Ein tolles kleines Restaurant im Oberland mit leckerem und sehr reichhaltigem Essen. Das Schnitzel war wirklich gut und mehr als genug, eine Vorspeise wäre für mich zuviel gewesen. Das Lokal und der Service sind besonders und haben einen ganz eigenen Charme, bitte unbedingt so bleiben. Wir kommen gerne wieder. Um einen Tisch zu bekommen, sollte man unbedingt vorbestellen und auch etwas Zeit mitbringen. Aber wenn die Schiffe weg sind, hat man davon jede Menge. Es lohnt sich.

Nachdem man nach 45 Min. fragte wann denn wohl das Essen kommt,,,, kam vom Kellner glatt die Frage ob die Frage ernst gemein ist, dann kam heute noch. Nach 1Std.10 Minuten kam es dann. Personal unfreundlich, Essen übersichtlich und nichts besonderes.

Uriges Ambiente der 80iger/90iger, sportliche Leuchtenverkabelung. Nettes Personal, stellt euch auf etwas Wartezeit ein, dann gibts 1a Essen. Hat uns gut gefallen!

Very friendly staff, and the food was really good. Unfortunately, you have to wait about an hour for your food. If you can accept that wait, you won't be disappointed.

Old shed, renovation is necessary

The food was okay. However, it took an hour to be delivered. Payment by card is only possible with a card, not via mobile! It's advisable to make a reservation in advance. There are much better options in the Oberland region.

We spontaneously asked if there was a table for two, and we were very happy to find one. The food was delicious and plentiful. The drinks came quickly, and there were no long waits. If we ever come to Heligoland again, we'll definitely be your guests again.

The food was good, but I've had better schnitzels. A grade of B, so really not bad. What was missing was some salad. The view was obscured by houses. It was in the middle of town. The owners (I think) were very, very nice. I'll be back, and with more salad, it'll get 5 stars. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 😄

Unfriendly and arrogant! We were there earlier with seven people...after asking for seats, we were turned away in an unfriendly and arrogant manner. Not recommended!

The food was super delicious and the portions were generous. The service was very friendly and attentive; we felt very comfortable throughout.

Very attentive service (the owner?). The food and drinks arrived very quickly. The food is a bit cheaper than the island average, but no less good. As we left, we were given a free shot of schnapps and wine gums for the kids.

We ordered the Jägerschnitzel with fries. It was delicious and plentiful. The waitress was very friendly and attentive.

We waited an hour for the soup. They offered pillows to the people next to us, but we didn't have any (we were sitting there longer). When paying, it turned out that you couldn't pay with a card from your phone, only with a physical one, but they don't accept physical Visas. It was a disaster. The only positive was the good soup.

Some of us had to wait over 40 minutes for our food. It was so sad.

Das geht besser - in jeder Hinsicht. Wir waren zu viert am Pfingstwochenende im Seehund essen und empfanden sowohl den Service als auch die Speisen als bestenfalls durchschnittlich. Ein paar Fotos vom "heimeligen" Ambiente im Inneren beschreibt das gesamte Restaurant recht ordentlich. Overtourism geht nicht nur zu Lasten der Einheimischen wie man bei dem Preis- Leistungsverhältnis gut sehen kann.

Nice restaurant, great food, but the kitchen seems to have problems with large groups. It takes time.

Yesterday, after making a reservation by phone, we had a very good meal at Seehund. Two schnitzels and one plaice fillet. It was fantastic. And since it was, we asked if we could get a table for today. It worked out. Today we had chicken breast, pork medallions, and cod fillet. Again, top notch. Absolutely excellent value for money. The service was "friendly and boyish," just the way we like it. We look forward to coming back next year. The Seehund is a must.

Absolutely fantastic restaurant, very nice and friendly service, delicious food... top!

The youngest of the waitresses was a real nuisance. Unfriendly, rude, and threw the menu and beer mats at us. The food was good!

We had a table at 6 p.m. The food arrived at 6:50 p.m. – which wasn't a big deal. Until then, however, not even a single drink had been ordered. We ate, and the food was okay. At 7:20 p.m., we considered checking the menu again for dessert. Without asking or hinting, the waitress, who had been extremely friendly from the start, came and brought the bill. We were a bit speechless and felt quite overwhelmed. So we couldn't have even finished an appetizer, and we didn't have a chance to try dessert. We knew that the tables were double-booked. But we didn't know that you only have 1.5 hours at the table, but the food wouldn't arrive for almost an hour.

We had to wait 1.5 hours for our food. Tables that came after us got their food first, and when we asked, we were yelled at. The food was good, though.

We had a reservation for 6pm. The waitress threw the menu on the table. We ordered scampi. They were delicious. Then the waitress asked if we wanted schnapps on the house. Since we don't like spirits, we declined. We did want a dessert. The girl grumbled that there was no dessert that evening. When we paid the owner, I said that it was a shame that there was no dessert. She replied that there was, but that she wanted to give our table to someone else. We didn't sit here long and they could have said that the table had to be free at 7.30pm or something. I find this scandalous. The ladies next to us were also shocked by the girl's behavior.

Het eten was wel lekker ( scampi’s), maar de bediening…. De kaart werd naar ons gegooid. Het meisje was op de rand van onbeleefd. We kregen geen dessert omdat ze onze tafel wilden geven aan iemand anders! We hadden nochtans gereserveerd.

Great croquettes, homemade. Top food, no matter what is on the table. Clear recommendation. We have already ordered the table for June 😋💚

Lots of friendly people, good service and delicious food in a simple restaurant atmosphere can be purchased here😉. It's a bit small and cramped, but all in all it's clean and the food is perfectly fine for the price. The delicious caraway schnapps at the end clears your stomach and afterwards a digestive walk to the Lange Anna is recommended.

Sehr empfehlenswert. Unbedingt reservieren. Sowohl Fisch- als auch Fleischgerichte Sehr lecker zubereitet. Nette Chefin und gutes Personal.

Schnitzel Pear Helene was nothing special. Unfortunately, the side salad doesn't do anything either. Ambience seems cheap and old-fashioned. But the service is very nice and attentive. You can go here on a budget - but you don't have to.

Good hearty dinner in a funny atmosphere. We really liked it!

Very cozy restaurant. Very friendly service and delicious food.

Very tasty food. If you like having sea on your plate, this is the place for you. Great service again.

It's a very good restaurant. The food tastes good and the service is great. Thank you.

Delicious food in a cozy atmosphere

A nice restaurant with very friendly staff and large portions, which is also open in winter. As a vegetarian, you can simply ask and you will be suggested different dishes or you can put something together yourself.

Nice atmosphere, friendly service, very good and generous portions, fair prices —> What more could you want? We'd love to come back.

Das Angebot war für uns gut, die Menge reichlich, der Geschmack vorzüglich, die Bedienung aufmerksam. Bestellt wurden Pannfisch und Schweinelende. Leider sind zu dieser Zeit fast keine Restaurants geöffnet, hier aber war es ein angenehmes Erleben.

We didn't have a reservation, but we were assigned a good table... the place's rustic charm is something in between a restaurant and a pub. The waitress, a young girl, was a bit shy... the food was good, the price was reasonable .

Worst experience on the island. The lady sat us at a table to wait 20 minutes for the other lady to kick us out. Then she sat us back down and we waited another 10 minutes. We didn't even get a menu. So we left. I can't rate the food, but no one has kicked me out of a restaurant yet. I do not recommend.

I have never experienced this. The waiter seated us, but after 20 minutes of waiting for the menu, another lady from the bar came and threw us out. When we were about to leave, the first attendant seated us again. We waited another 10 minutes for menus and then left. I do not recommend.

Once again on Helgoland with the regulars' table and of course at the Seehund dinner. A perfect rump steak!

2/4 meals were forgotten No card payment possible Herforder not available despite advertising Drinks on the bill that we didn't order Booked drinks from another table to ours

Unfortunately, our visit to the Seehund really disappointed us. We had ordered two dishes, a vegetarian vegetable casserole and a pane fillet. The fish dish was okay, but the "casserole" was unfortunately only butter vegetables and when we asked, the waitress said that the dish was what we ordered After asking again, we were charged for the vegetable pan, but for two dishes, one of which was just butter vegetables, €50 was really too much. We were actually really happy, but unfortunately that was real a disappointment

Highly recommended! Large portions, good price. An older lady and an old gentleman do everything on their own at the front. Even though there were a lot of people there, it went relatively quickly.

Yep. Can you go there? Well, we waited longer for the bill than for the food, but luckily we had nothing else planned. 🙈 Food was rather average.

Good pizzas for those on a tight budget (although not that big either).

Authentic, warm, straightforward. Not a location that's spruced up for tourists with exorbitant prices. Super! Really good food, deliciously prepared. Special requests no problem. Fair prices. Again and again! Thank you very much and greetings from the two guys at the table in the back corner.

Saturday evening on the island - spontaneously and without planning it was difficult to find a place to eat... We spontaneously stayed at the Seehund. Food completely OK, good home cooking. The place was full, but we got our drinks quickly. Waiting time until the delicious soup is also OK.

A super cozy restaurant. The food and service are great. Price/performance are also great here. No trace of rip-off, as is often the case with other items. Clear recommendation. A table reservation is mandatory.

Look kindly. Good value for money and tasty

You have to like the restaurant or not. The guests sit quite close together, which I personally don't find uncomfortable. So I could talk to nice people. The service is quick and attentive. I had to ask her to smile because, as I noticed, it suits the young woman very well and creates a nice atmosphere. My panfish was really good and I can recommend it.

The quality of the food is okay, but a waiting time of 1.5 hours from ordering to serving the food is NOT acceptable. The wait staff can't do anything about it, but other restaurants can do it better. Perhaps the capacity of the kitchen is not quite right in relation to the number of guests seated. If you just want to have a drink, you would probably be well served here. I will avoid this restaurant in the future... the free caraway seeds after the meal didn't help either.

It was our first time at the "Seehund" and we were not disappointed. We had a good tasty meal. It came quickly, was hot and freshly prepared. I also had a very fruity blackcurrant spritzer. Thank you very much 👍

Super nice service with the dark, shorter hair on the evening of July 11th. I had a lot to do and was still super friendly and quick. :)

Delicious food, especially fish. Good price/performance ratio. Important: Make a reservation in advance as there are only a few tables available.

Were there for dinner. The main course food was rich. However, there were no starters. However, the fish was very tasty – really tasty. The restaurant has good seating, so there are some tight spaces. But somehow it's also fitting for the area. Can be recommended!

The food was great, the ambience too, we would love to come back

Hello, we ate rump steak. A very nice lump of meat! Nicely fried and streaked with tendons, delicious!! I can only recommend! Maybe the review will be padded now!?

Very nice service and the food was great! Regional and delicious!

Excellent food, very nice staff

A lovely evening in a rustic maritime ambience. Everyone enjoyed the food very much and the large group got everything at the same time. There was fish, schnitzel and steaks. After the meal there is a clear schnapps on the house for every guest who wants it. Since the landlady will stop at the end of 2024, you have to visit this restaurant this year. Don't forget to reserve a table in good time, it won't work without it!

We had a very nice evening here, the food was really tasty and the service was friendly and accommodating!

We have been eating here for years when we spend our time on Helgoland again.

I love Gerda and the food... She makes space even when it's almost impossible

Really tasty and everyone was very friendly. We felt very comfortable there. Thanks.

Good, honest cuisine. Yummy. Friendly service. Gladly again.

Nice service, delicious cake and a walk by the lake. Gladly again. Also nice walks.

Great restaurant. Seems very authentic. Extremely friendly service. You feel comfortable and the food is simply good. We'll definitely be back.

Very nice and cozy restaurant in the Oberland. Good food, large portions, nice service. We'll be back 😊

What sweet amber! Such a great, lovingly run restaurant where every dish tastes delicious! The portions are generous and extremely well seasoned. We had the lobster soup as a starter, an absolute must!!! It was so delicious I would come back just for it. For the main course we had the crab skewers in an excellent onion, garlic and rosemary stock. An absolute dream! Happy to come back to Seehund at any time! Thank you! Rounded off with an egg grog, it's easier to walk home!

Sadly bad. Plaice fillet had no taste and didn't look like plaice. There was no consistency either. My wife enjoyed her food, but she didn't like it.

We had a lovely evening. The food was really good. We had to wait a bit for the food, but it wasn't bad at all. We're not on the run and taking a vacation. On the beautiful offshore island. At the end there was even a bargain on the house.

Good restaurant with good food and friendly staff.

Nice service and delicious food, definitely recommended.

traditional restaurant with good service and good food

Leider haben sie im November 2023 geschlossen. Eine Info hier wäre prima gewesen.

Ohne Reservierung/essen mega /Service supi

Sehr leckeres Essen. Freundliche und zuvorkommende Bedienung. Es war aber unangenehm dass man sehr lange aufs Essen warten musste und später kommende Gäste es vorher erhalten

Nette Bedienung aber das essen ist nur mittelmäßig. Vom Ambiente habe ich mir beim Geschmack des Essens mehr erwartet.

Gute, bürgerliche Küche zu guten Preisen. Sehr liebevolle Bedienung, sehr, sehr nett. Gemütliche Atmosphäre, gemütliche Beleuchtung. Seit Jahren bin ich immer wieder gerne dort.

Wir haben dieses Restaurant in unserem Urlaub zweimal besucht, weil uns die Speisen sehr gut geschmeckt haben und wir uns wohl gefühlt haben. Das Restaurant ist gemütlich rustikal eingerichtet, die Beleuchtung sehr stimmig. Die Portionen sind gut, die Preise ok. Man muss ein wenig Zeit mitbringen, was vollkommen ok ist, wenn man es weiß. Der Service ist zuvorkommend und aufmerksam, auch norddeutsch charmant, wer da nicht mit umgehen kann, Pech gehabt 😉 Für uns gab es in diesem Restaurant das beste Essen auf Helgoland! Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!

2023: Diesmal waren wir sehr enttäuscht 😞. Wir mussten sehr lange auf die Getränke warten. Die Küche scheint total überlastet zu sein. Wartezeit auf das Essen geht gar nicht. Dann wurde die Bestellte Suppe vergessen. Bei einem Essen war die Beilage falsch. Teller wurde dann mitgenommen und die Belage ausgetauscht. 2021: Wir waren 2X hier zum Essen. Das Essen war immer schnell fertig und hat sehr gut geschmeckt. Beim ersten Mal war nur eine Service Kraft anwesend. Diese musste sich um den Eingang und die Personen welche nicht Reserviert hatten kümmern. Zudem noch den Service an den Tischen. Später bekam sie Unterstützung. Sie war sehr aufmerksam. Was mir negativ aufgefallen ist. Der Herr hinter der Theke hat es nicht so mit dem zapfen. Wenn Bier aus anderen Gläser zusammen geschüttet wird und dazwischen der Schaum abgestriffen wird, frage ich mich ob die Anlage schlecht eingestellt ist oder der Herr es nur nicht kann.

Sehr nettes Personal, urige Einrichtung, sehr leckere Speisen! Wenn man sich die Speisekarte ansieht, fragt man sich erst, was einen wohl erwarten wird. Aber dann wird mal vom leckeren Essen zu gutem Preis überrascht. Definitiv einen Besuch wert!

Sehr freundlich und lecker Essen

Sehr schönes und typisch Rustikales Restaurant mit netter Bedienung. Essen war spitze und es hat auch nicht lange gedauert bis es fertig war. Vor allem das Ambiente ist sehr schön und gemütlich. Die Preise sind noch sehr Human im Gegensatz zum Rest der Insel

Wir sind heute eher durch Zufall hier gelandet, und es hätte uns nichts besseres passieren können! Mein Mann fand sein Essen super, der Service ist megafreundlich und man fühlt sich einfach nur willkommen. Aber jetzt kommen wir zu meinem Highlight und gleichzeitig Geheimtipp. Ich dachte erst: Haben die nen Knall? als ich die Speisekarte gelesen habe, fand es dann aber so witzig, dass ich es probieren musste. Meine neue Lieblingspizza: Die Bratkartoffel-Pizza. Unfassbar lecker, verrückt und einfach nur genial!

Nette und freundliche Bedienung. Der gebratene Dorsch mit Spinatspagetti war super. Wenn der Koch am Rumpsteak die Schwarte entfernt hätte, dann wäre es eine 5 Sterne Bewertung für das Essen geworden.

Von außen eher unscheinbar aber Essen und Service ist super. 👍🏻

Einfach top super nettes Personal und das Essen stitze

Sehr Lecker. Unsere Bedienung super nett und sehr freundlich. Das Essen hat uns geschmeckt.
