We are Jacobi

The Jacobi Freiburg team on the steps in front of the restaurant. Owner and chef Christoph Kaiser, sommelier Sebastian Hernandez-Westpfahl, hostess Lina Ory and Manuel and Cedrik toast with white wine.

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 in 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 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 up 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. Gastronomy which becomes an experience for you!

We look forward to welcome you
