Ein sehr gelungener Abend in einem sehr schönen Ambiente. Vom Empfang beginnend über den Service bis hin zum Küchenteam eine sehr professionelle und zuvorkommende Betreuung. Gute regionale Weinempfehlung. Die einzelnen Gänge waren geschmacklich ein Erlebnis.

Hervorragende Speisen, wunderbar angerichtet, perfekt geschultes Personal und am warmen Sommerabend ein schattiger Platz im Innenhof. Schlicht, ohne viel „TamTam“, genau richtig. Wer beim bestellen auf die Kosten schaut, der muss die Augen etwas zukneifen. Für uns war es jeden Cent wert und ab und zu darf und sollte man ja auch mal sich selbst etwas gönnen. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

June 25 : Kastenmeiers Restaurant offers guests a refined and distinctive dining experience. The elegant dining room features clay-plastered walls adorned with artworks in a variety of styles. One of the restaurant’s most striking features is the series of saltwater and freshwater aquariums positioned above the open kitchen, home to live trout, char, and lobster. Gourmet chef Gerd Kastenmeier showcases his culinary expertise through refined fish dishes made with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients. A curated selection of exquisite wines perfectly complements the meal. During my visit, I had the privilege of attending two pre-event gatherings featuring Chef Gerd Kastenmeier himself. His seafood preparation is arguably the best I’ve experienced in Germany. I was fortunate to join the Caviar Night, where Russian Beluga caviar was generously served and personally prepared by the chef. The free-flowing champagne and white wine made it hard not to indulge—especially impressive considering I had just arrived in Dresden that same morning from Singapore. The grilled fish was superb, but the standout dish was the beef tartare topped with egg and a generous helping of caviar—it was simply out of this world. (Check the photo—you can imagine how much caviar each guest enjoyed!) The second evening event showcased Chef Kastenmeier’s artistry with fresh yellowfin tuna sashimi, carved and prepared on the spot. The warm weather only added to the festive, relaxed atmosphere. To wrap up my stay in Dresden, I dined at the restaurant on my last night and enjoyed a perfectly grilled turbot. Paired with a few sips of schnapps, it was a fantastic conclusion to a remarkable culinary experience. Kastenmeiers is truly a must-visit when in town. I’m incredibly grateful to have been invited to these exclusive events and to witness Chef Kastenmeier working behind the scenes, crafting such exceptional dishes for us. June 24 : It is quite rare to find a good seafood restaurant in Dresden, but we discovered a gem in the city, beautifully decorated with both indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor area is especially pleasant in June. We started our dinner with a refreshing raw tuna tartare and salmon sashimi with cucumber tartare. For starters, we sampled a variety of dishes, including grilled scallops, shrimp with rocket salad, seared tuna, and grilled squid. To change our palate between courses, we shared a creamy truffle pasta. For the main course, I chose the pike perch fillet with asparagus ragout and potato foam. The fillet was perfectly grilled with tender meat and crispy skin. The service was excellent, and the ambiance was lovely. We enjoyed pairing our meal with locally made white and red wine. The pleasant weather made dining outside a delightful experience.
