We are Jacobi
We are a young, motivated team with very different backgrounds—from the restaurant industry and beyond. Under the leadership of Christoph Kaiser, we came together in 2022 to launch the Jacobi project.
What connects us? A love of gastronomy—and our region. South Baden has it all: beautiful landscapes, plenty of sunshine and, above all, an impressive variety of farms and producers. This is exactly what we want to incorporate into our cuisine and let you taste and experience during your visit.
Our partners work with great respect for nature and the environment and supply us with products that speak for themselves. Our kitchen team—Cedrik, Stephan, Denis, Yasmina, and Christoph—adds the finishing touches to these ingredients. In the dining room, Sebastian and Leon make sure you feel at home from the moment you arrive—from the welcome to the perfect wine selection.
A special highlight: through the large kitchen window, you can watch us at work—real, lively gastronomy to experience firsthand.
We look forward to seeing you!

We like dogs! As long as neither our service nor the other guests are disturbed, four-legged friends are welcome. Please let us know in advance so that we can guarantee a suitable, nice place. We look forward to seeing you.
