Kinfelts

Located in the Hafen district, around the corner from the Elbphilharmonie, this wine restaurant has a great view over the harbour and a relaxed wine bar vibe. Kinfelts owners Maximilian Wilm (Best Sommelier Germany 2019) and Kirill Kinfelt (a local Michelin Star chef) wanted to create a fun, relaxed place to enjoy great wine. The food menu is “international casual fine dining” meaning you can get pasta, regional specialities and steaks.

The menu changes often; however, the local favourites like truffle pasta keep a fixed spot on the otherwise very seasonal menu. The restaurant's design is flexible and guest-friendly and works well for both just a glass of wine or a long romantic dinner.

If you want to make it a formal event and order four courses, they offer various dishes in two sizes. The modern space also offers a cosy bar and a section with high tables that are fit to the wine bar vibe. The design details are Scandi modern with lots of personal touches.

The wine list contains a fabulous mix of well-known classics and under the radar wines from around the world. The bottle list offers around 350 positions and goes deep into Germany, USA, Burgundy, Italy & Austria.

The by-the-glass list also includes a reserve Coravin list with rotating treasures such as 1994 D’Yquem and Bussaco Branco 2001. They also offer a weekly big bottle from the cellar by the glass, and it is always something fun to check out. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly.
