Die besten Restaurants mit Gourmetrestaurant Essen in Düsseldorf

A truly fabulous restaurant, especially if you're new to fine dining. The dishes are lovingly designed and prepared, and you will be overwhelmed by the different flavors. In contrast to other “fancy” restaurants, you don’t have to lose a whole fortune straight away. The service was also always very friendly and was always available for advice and questions. The nice thing here is that the people seem a bit more down-to-earth, so you don't always have to pretend to be so extreme. Here you never feel uncomfortable or out of place. :) Depending on where you sit, the atmosphere is more or less cozy, but overall it's still really great there!

Great place for a quiet night for business or romantic night out with your partner! Food was delicious!

Excellent dishes, friendly service and a very friendly team. Kitchen responded to spontaneous menu changes without any problems

I would have liked to report on a culinary experience at this point. Instead, my visit to the JAE in Düsseldorf left a bitter aftertaste - and not because of the food or drinks, but because of the deeply unpleasant treatment of guests, which was disturbing on several levels. After a relaxing evening with friends - including lawyers, entrepreneurs and executives - we were looking for a stylish location for a last drink. JAE seemed to fit the bill with its high-quality furnishings and well-curated drinks menu. What followed was all the more irritating. After entering the restaurant we were told in a very clearly negative tone that there was no wine. This happened while we were surrounded by wine and champagne bottles visibly displayed - an absurd claim that no one can seriously believe. The message was clear: our presence was unwelcome. Why? Because we didn't show up in expensive suits? Because we weren’t part of the “regular audience”? Because – despite our polite demeanor – they didn’t trust us to fit into the picture? The attempt to subtly but clearly force us out of the restaurant was as obvious as it was shameful. Hospitality? None. The fact that such behavior is tolerated – or worse, practiced – in a restaurant that sees itself as ambitious raises fundamental questions. About values. About attitude. About authenticity. And about the criteria by which people apparently hope to secure the favor of certain restaurant guides. Because one thing is clear: consistent discrimination based on appearance or supposed affiliation is not something that can be reconciled with the principles of the Michelin Guide or other renowned rating institutions. This isn't about choosing clothes. It's about attitude. And it was – with all due respect – underground. I have eaten in many countries around the world, in star restaurants and small family businesses. However, I have never been treated so subtly, like a second-class guest. One thing is clear to me: anyone who makes guests feel unwanted - for purely superficial reasons - has no place in fine dining.

I and my companion really liked the service and ambience. We had ordered the menu and various extra dishes. A very clear recommendation: the Crostinis with beef tartare. Just perfection from start to finish. The courses on the menu were very good, but they didn't blow my socks off, which is okay. If it had stayed that way, I would have given it 5 stars considering the overall package. However, we sometimes received gnocchi which, in my opinion, were a bit watery. Since it is a very high-priced restaurant, I think it is appropriate to deduct one star. Overall I would probably give it somewhere between 4 and 4.5 stars. After trying all the fine-dining restaurants in Düsseldorf, I would definitely come back after considering all factors.

Great service. Great ambience. I can only recommend it. TOP 👍🏼 Thank you

Very good value for money in the high-end range

Sehr exquisite delikate Küche. Anrichtung der Teller eine Augenweide. Jeder Bissen eine Gaumenexplosion. Kleines gemütliches Restaurant.

Thank you very much for the lovely evening. It was one of our favorite restaurant experiences. We were personally and warmly welcomed by one of the two chefs. The restaurant is small and plays soft music. In each of the 4 courses you could choose from one of two dishes. We also had non-alcoholic wine and sparkling wine. Each of the dishes was not only excellent in terms of craftsmanship, it was also creative, with unexpected nuances that combined beautiful flavors on the fork, such as rice pudding foam with leeks in the dessert. The restaurant is not an assembly line, every plate is prepared with love, but in our opinion the price is absolutely fair. We have definitely put it on our wishlist and would like to come back again.

I would like to say thank you for many years of great food and very good service. However, I question what is wrong with the system that is forcing this restaurant to close.

It was almost two years ago, but I still remember it in a very positive way. I will definitely come back again soon but I can recommend it to everyone 👌🏻

Das Schiffchen ist das gute alte Restaurant, was seit "Menschengedenken" einen Michelin-Stern hat. Die Atmosphäre war an dem Abend fast familiär. Großes Lob für Frau Plum, die exzellent im Umgang mit Kunden ist.
