Die besten Restaurants mit Gourmetrestaurant Essen in Hannover

It was a really nice evening! Both food and service were excellent! The atmosphere is very relaxed, you don't feel pressured and you have peace and quiet :) Thanks for everything!

My dear colleague and I ate at Handwerk yesterday. We like to go to gourmet restaurants and were really looking forward to the menu. We had the wine pairing and the non-alcoholic pairing with the menu. Both drinks were great, what was particularly cool about the non-alcoholic pairing was that it was produced in a variety of ways and really surprised me - you should definitely try it 😉. The dishes were all well thought out, extremely tasty and attractively served. As a guest, you quickly notice that there is a relaxed atmosphere among the employees and so the hosts guided us through the evening in a professional and relaxed manner. The prices are absolutely fair and the ambience is very well thought out. From the cutlery to the decoration, the concept at Handwerk is consistent. We will definitely come back to see you again.

VOTUM, Hannover » My visit: Feb 2025 » Total score: 4.9/5 – outstanding » Comment: I was quite impressed by the restaurant’s performance. In my opinion, the team exceeded expectations in several ways: First of all, I thought the service was outstanding. As for the food, I rated most of the dishes as outstanding and would particularly like to highlight an excellent intermediate course with cauliflower. Almost the same goes for the wines, and here I would like to highlight an excellent Pinot Noir Champagne and a wonderful Sauternes. As for the presentation of the food, the tableside procedures were some of the best (if not the best) I've ever experienced. The presentation of the wines was also excellent. Last but not least, I thought the value for money was outstanding and the price transparency left almost nothing to be desired. I hope that I will be able to visit Votum again at some point. 2|10|10 ===== My ratings for this gourmet restaurant in detail: ●● Service – 4.9/5 – outstanding: ● Hospitality, friendliness, obligingness, etc.: 4.9/5 ● Atmosphere, temper, facilitation, etc.: 4.9/5 ●● Food – 4.9/5 – outstanding: ● Flavors (range, depth, composition, harmony/balance, etc.): 4.9/5 ● Level (thoroughness, craftsmanship, originality, exclusivity, variety of impressions, consistency/diversity, etc.): 4.9/5 ● Choices: 4.7/5 ●● Beverages, mainly the wines – 4.9/5 – outstanding: ● Taste (depth/range, length, complexity, balance, accessibility, elegance, intensity/subtlety, etc.): 4.9/5 ● Level (variety/novelty of impressions, consistency/diversity, exclusivity, etc.): 4.9/5 ● Did the beverages (mainly the wines) match the dishes?: 4.8/5 ● Choices: 4.7/5 ●● Presentation of the food – 4.7/5 – very good: ● Textures and (differences in) temperatures: 4.9/5 ● Colors and decorations: 4.2/5 ● Timing and sequencing as well as sizes of portions: 5.0/5 ● Special effects (positionings, DIY-effects, sculptural or thematic elements, surprises, color and motion effects, fake effects, olfactory effects, fog or smoke effects, etc.): 4.2/5 ● Procedures at and around the table (attunements and explanations, elements added/changed, service and staffing intensity, involvement of kitchen team, orchestrated dish presentations, preparations and dishes (partially) built up at the table, etc.): 5.0/5 ●● Presentation of beverages, mainly the wines – 5.0/5 – excellent: ● Procedures at and around the table (explanations and attunements, etc.): 5.0/5 ● Quantities poured as well as timing in relation to the dishes: 5.0/5 ●● Premises and location – 4.7/5 – very good: ● Accessibility, surroundings and - as applicable - the view: 4.7/5 ● How did I like the room or - as applicable - outdoor area’s style, decor and atmosphere?: 4.7/5 ● Well-being (space, privacy, temperature, ventilation/odors, lighting, soundscape, sanitary facilities, etc.): 4.6/5 ●● Price – 4.9/5 – outstanding: ● Price-performance ratio for food: 4.9/5 ● Price-performance ratio for wines and other beverages: 4.9/5 ● Price transparency and correspondence of the expected to the actual price (simple, complete and unambiguous price information on the restaurant's website and in the menu, etc.): 4.9/5

The location at Braunschweiger Platz is really interesting. I've passed there countless times over the years without ever noticing the very chic Jante. The outdoor area looked as if you could definitely have a lovely time there, but in February that wasn't really an option. The interior is in Scandinavian style. Clear structures, lots of wood. I liked that a lot. The service was attentive, friendly and very committed, although there were differences between the individual service staff. I would have liked a little less fluctuation here, but that is certainly a matter of taste. I thought the idea of ​​being able to help yourself with cutlery from a drawer was cool; I would have been happy to see more size options for spoons and forks. I was very impressed with the food. My highlights were the smoked eel, with the very exciting grapefruit note, the beetroot camouflage, which was served with the excellent game, and the really surprising ice cream dessert, which, with its white chocolate chips and various different flavors, managed to represent an enormous variety at the same time, but without seeming overloaded. I really liked the non-alcoholic drink accompaniment. Varied, well explained and a great alternative if you don't want to just stick with water. All in all, I had a great evening and can recommend Jante without hesitation.

Really great food and super friendly, professional service. The food always came to the table at the same time, cutlery that was no longer needed was cleared away straight away and the food itself was very good. Definitely an experience.
