Fine Dining at Jacobi Freiburg
Look forward to sophisticated worlds of taste in Freiburg’s old town and embark on a culinary experience based on our region and its seasons. Book a table now and enjoy our menu in the atmospheric ambience of the Schwarzwälder Hof.
We are Jacobi
Christoph, Sebastian, Lina, Aron and Cedrik. We are a small team with different gastronomic – and non-gastronomic – backgrounds, led by Christoph Kaiser, who gradually came together over the course of 2022 to launch the Jacobi project.
When we work, everything happens together, and what unites us is our love of gastronomy and our region. Southern Baden not only has an impressive landscape and many hours of sunshine, but also—or above all—its many farms and other producers. We want to make the most of this and make you taste and feel our region when you visit us.
Our partners work with full respect for their environment and produce great food, which Aron, Cedrik and Christoph put the finishing touches to in the kitchen. We want your evening with us to be an experience that invites you to linger and come back again and again. Lina and Sebastian make you feel at home in the dining room, from the moment you arrive to the right wine selection.
You have the opportunity to look over the shoulders of the guys working in the kitchen through a large window. Experience high-class gastronomy in the making, live!
We look forward to seeing you
Your Jacobis
