It is a journey (worth). - Edit
First of all: I would love to give 10 stars (which unfortunately is not possible 😛)
Read moreAfter such a fantastic evening, it is hard to write down all the impressions.
The restaurant looks very inconspicuous from the outside (side note: one of the narrowest buildings in Frankfurt). You have to ring the bell to be let in. On the ground floor, there is an aperitif at the bar.
Afterwards, you will be brought to the table by an elevator.
The courses are served by the kitchen staff. Each course is explained by Chef Ricky - which ingredients are used and the preparation method (a lot of fermentation is used). What a taste and aroma experience!
It is crafted with a rich variety of flavors and finesse. Everything is perfectly balanced in taste.
Moreover, no ingredients that do not come from the region are used (such as pepper, lemon, coffee).
The best (vegan) menu I have ever eaten to date.
Note: all in all, you should plan for 4 hours for the evening.
It is more of a journey into the world of aromas than just going out to eat.

Sehr experimentel - Edit
Die Atmosphäre war sehr schön. Mit der Küche im Hintergrund (über den Gästen) und ganz toller Bedienung/Köchen war die Stimmung toll.
Read moreDie zahlreichen Gänge wurden immer in ihrer Zusammensetzung und Inspiration erklärt. Dabei waren es nicht einfach sehr gut erstellte Gerichte, die man in einfacherer Form vielleicht woanders auch sehen könnte, sondern sehr filigran zusammengestellt, und handwerklich perfekte Experimente, die viel Späße gemacht haben. Rein vegan wurde durch massiven Aufwand, ganz ohne gewürzt und mit lokalen Zutaten sehr intensive Geschmäcke erzeugt. Dabei spielt gerade Fermentation (von zum Beispiel unreifen Erdbeeren) eine essenzielle Rolle.
Es ist unbedingt zu empfehlen die nicht alkoholische Begleitung zu nehmen, um sich den Experimenten voll auszuliefern. Während die Alkohole sicher von ganz kleinen Betrieben stammen, wurden bei den Säften passend zum Gang, oft die entsprechenden Zutaten zum Getränk erstellt. Alles also Säfte, die man genauso wenig wie die Gerichte, man irgendwo anders finden kann.
Obwohl alles immer genau erklärt wurde, fiel es mir schwer auch nur ein Bruchteil davon zu merken. Ein Buch/Karte von den Ideen der Gerichte wäre klasse gewesen. Aber das was einem auf alle Fälle bleibt, ist wie wahnsinnig viel Energie in die kleinen, aber intensiven Gerichte geht.
Es ist nicht zu empfehlen besonders Hungrig zu kommen. Bei uns ging es nicht wie vorhergesagt 4, sondern 5,5 Stunden.
Pros: Aufwendig, Personal, Besonders

Wurzelgemüsenliebe ❤️ - Edit
Das Team bezieht alle Zutaten aus der Region. Das am weitesten entfernte Bezugsgebiet war ein Wein aus Göttingen. Ich finde das Commitment zur Regionalität und Saisonalität wunderbar! Jeder einzelne Gang zeigt, was unsere heimische Pflanzenwelt auch im Winter zu bieten hat. Viele Zutaten werden selbst angebaut und gesammelt. Zudem werden keine Gewürze verwendet und dennoch erlebt man hier wahre Geschmacksexplosionen. Aus dem Weinangebot musste ich auf halbem Weg aussteigen 😅 schön fand ich auch, dass die Atmosphäre so locker ist. Hier geht es nicht ums Blingbling, sondern das Essen steht im Mittelpunkt.
Read morePros: Regionalität/Saisonalität, Entspannte Atmosphäre , Zwischen den Gängen gab es kaum Wartezeit

It's not food, it's an experience - Edit
This restaurant deserves it's Michelin Star. It started with a fancy cocktail in a separate, cozy room. This really helped to slow down and get the full Seven Swans experience. Every course was well explained. It's not only about the food, but the creation and time it took to develop each course.
Read moreThat's an incredible place
Pros: Entry cocktail in cozy place took the stress away, Chef came always personally to give information , They adjust if you have allergies

Wow - Edit
I feel like 5 stars are just too less for this overall experience. You go they’re not too busy have dinner but to experience an exquisite dinner with only regional and seasonal ingredients. The combinations are so in detail the food just wows you and it’s nothing you ever had before.
Read moreThe offered wine is also very special and carefully chosen by them.
It is of course expensive but like I said it’s not comparable to anything and from what they tell you what they serve you and how it’s done it’s worth the price. Not you average dinner but something very special to experience.
Pros: All vegan , Overall great experience
Cons: Expensive (but totally worth)

Wonderful, but we went home distressed - Edit
I still give the place 5 stars, because the experience is funny, interesting, a pleasure for the mouth, the eyes and even the ears, since every course is explained by the chef with tangible passion. From the aperitif to the desserts, everything is delicious and one can see the reason for the final bill, as every course is "constructed" architectonically and some ingredients require months of preparation (fermentation, extraction, etc.). Booking requires patience (or luck, there can be cancellations) and it's true that you are charged in case of no-show, which is actually fair. We added one wine pairing which was also excellent. The only downside came at the end: tipping cannot be demanded! Tipping is an appreciation of service, not an automated or imposed thing! We experienced an inquisitive moment (...when presenting a 360 euro check for 2 people...) with "how much do you want to add?". The demand came with an unnecessary explanation ("you know, in Germany we have a different system"). Well, I live in Germany since 2015 and travel for work in all Europe, this never occurred to me here. And never in restaurants of this level: a Michelin-starred restaurant imposing tipping? I repeat: even if not sufficiently detailed in advance (the website is totally non-informative), prices can be justified, in our opinion, by the care and research behind food. But check out and payment were utterly embarrassing and left a bad taste in our mouth.

Art - Edit
I m not quite sure if this restaurant belongs here on this platform. It might need its own category. You don’t go there to have dinner- you go to experience art. Friends had booked our table 6 months in advance. This was our wedding present. There is no staff. The chef and the souschef cook, serve and explain the menu. Right now they have 8 (!) seats. They use only regional and seasonal ingredients- no exception! Different wines are served along with the courses. We drink no alcohol, so they served an excellent alcohol free alternative .
Read moreThe menu was incredibly thoughtful, highly sophisticated and very different from anything I had ever experienced. They served 9 courses ( 3 of them were desert❤️).

Fine vegan dining with set 10 course menu - Edit
It's recommended to reserve online in advance and note that you would be charged in case of no show.
Read moreExquisite 10 course menu is offered and with an additional option to pair it with wine.
Each dish as can be seen in the photo section is a creation in itself. Note that the change the menu per season as all the food is locally sourced. And, if you come early, you can have drinks in the small bar downstairs beforehand.
Pros: Luxurious vegan dinner
Cons: Pricey

Haute cuisine - Edit
Finde eating! Take your time, as the menue contains six to seven single courses. All of them were highly delicious! The food items used in the Restaurant mainly come from their own permaculture farm Braumannswiesen. The dishes vary according to the season. Been there already twice! If possible I would award six Stars to this Restaurant.
Read moreReservation a good time in advance advisable. But sometimes, you can be lucky as well calling the day before or the same day, as people may cancel at short notice. When you reserve, inform them, that you are vegan.
Cons: Expensive, but worth the price.

An experience - Edit
Seven Swans is not the place where you go to have dinner, it’s a place where you go to and your dinner is an experience. A celebration of tastes and smells.
Read moreYou will get a fixed menu. As it is a vegetarian restaurant, you should indicate you are eating vegan, when reserving your table. Vegans are very welcome and we got an all-vegan menu, which was superb and filling.
Pros: Great service, Self-grown vegetables , Combination of taste well worth a star Michelin
Cons: Not inexpensive
