The menu is interesting seafood combinations. We tried the fish assorted platter for two people. What was stated was the 5 different fish types were fresh. Dissappointingly, only two tasted fresh (salmon was one and it was cooked to perfection) and the other three were either not fresh or overcooked. All the fish except the salmon had a rather unfortunate curry seasoning which made it difficult to taste (and it was simply aweful--you only need salt & pepper with butter for fresh fish--a hint to the restaurant management). The two side dishes: the potato salad was very boring and nearly tasteless however the baked potatoes were very nicely done and recommended.Your staff are welcoming and friendly and although once they forgot out wine, no issue with the service.Has a lot of potential if the chef/management learn how to prepare fresh seafood.

We headed here because this place is listed 1st here on trip advisor. The food was fresh, hot and good and the service was super friendly and just right. Although it was off season the place filled up quickly.

We like the outdoor and indoor atmosphere and the bar is modern yet with old school atmosphere. We were the only guests inside and the bartender I would opening state was unpersonable which is the very quality why you hire a bartender. We will frequent other Kneipes during our stay as others have been more in tune with hospitality but nice Kneipe for drinks all the same.

Best restaurant we have been to during our 4 day holiday on Spiekeroog. Fresh salad with a great dressing (very unusual for German restaurants in general). Great fish, nice atmosphere and very friendly service. Definitely a place to come back to. Too bad they only take cash.

Sometimes it is wise not to take warnings. The Altes Inselhaus looks for all the world like the kind of place where tourists can expect mediocre renditions of standard local fare. But do not be fooled, for nothing could be further from the truth. The quaintness, cuteness, and locality of the Altes Inselhaus are all backed up by a remarkable combination of competence and whimsy. A seeming one-man operation in which the proprietor single-handedly staffs the front room, waiting on tables as well as receiving and entertaining guests, the Altes Inselhaus is, in fact, supported by an able cadre of chefs who deliver some of the best renditions of East Frisian classics to be found on the island of Spiekeroog or, for that matter, on any of the North Sea Islands. Simple, focused, and pure, the menu, which is limited to and yet abounds in local seafood and occasionally beef specialties, allows the kitchen staff plenty of operating room in which to display their ingenuity. The unpretentious roast beef with Remoulade sauce and skillet potatoes, for example, not only rivals, but exceeds similar preparations in French bistros. Operating on an afternoon and evening schedule, the Altes Inselhaus also provides afternoon coffee and cake. Guests may enjoy the beautiful as well as cozy patio, with all its flowers and vegetation, while they savor the fine "seasonal cake" (which is much better than the standard, day-to-day cakes). What makes the Altes Inselhaus an unforgettable experience is the buoyant as well as witty performance of the host, whose quick wit brings island lore to life and whose personal charm lends legitimacy and liveliness to a decidedly homey, old-time interior. It should be noted, too, that the side dishes receive as much attention as the main courses. The Bratkartoffeln (skillet potatoes), for example, should be served to angels! Whether for afternoon coffee and cake or for dinner, the Altes Inselhaus is a "must"--a thoroughly marvelous experience.

The facade of the restaurant at the Hotel zur Linde is promising: full of period charm, colorful but tasteful, it warmly invites visitors to enjoy the shade of its wonderful (and eponymous) tree. Unfortunately, this restaurant is trying to do too many things at once. It presents itself as a fine-dining establishment; as a historic site; as a contemporary bistro; as a "hip" bar; and as a venue for the in crowd. It falls short of success on all these attempts. What it serves is reasonably tasty, but the menu is short and the dishes utterly predictable and sometimes clumsily executed (a vegetable medley accompaniment included a gigantic lump of cauliflower that seemed to have been hacked by Jack-the-Giant-Killer rather than by a skilled chef). Neither traditional German nor innovative modern cuisine, the plates suggest an awkward attempt to satisfy a conservative clientele while adding a bit of non-threatening flash. Especially disappointing is the slate of appetizers, which would have a hard time rivaling the offerings at even a middle-of-the-road German pub. The service is also pushy: The waiter at my table constantly dispensed costly bottled water even when asked not to do so and, in an astounding bit of ambition, asked no less than three times whether we would like to make a reservation for the next evening! Although the food at the Hotel zur Linde rises slightly above the average, the pretensions that accompany it take the edge off the flavors.

The service people were combing 2 tables to allow our family (6 adults, 2 kids) to enjoy lunch together. We ordered 8 different dishes from their menu and all were served in very good quality. The menue includes a lot of fish, but also several meat dishes for none fish eaters. This is certainly not a star rated restaurant, but offers regional cuisine at a very good level.The kids got (in line with our request) theirs first, all others got theirs once the kids were done. The portions were very big and most had difficulties to finish their plates.

The wait staff were excellent, fast and friendly. She asked immediately if I wanted another drink when I finished--a rare quality in Germany.The atmosphere is good in the outdoor beer garden. However we had two main courses: one a 4 piece meat platter of overcooked and dry meat, very little portion with below average french fries but a good salad. Very pricey. My wife had a seafood kebab and same scenario: only 1 kebab and side dishes--very small and overpriced. Good for a drink but there are plenty good restaurants around so try another for eating.

The designation "Fischretaurant" is unfortuntely misleading, for the Capitanshaus--as its command-quality name suggests--offers a comprehensive menu that includes a full range of dining options, including upgraded, updated versions of some of the German classics. Situated in a historic house a few steps northeast of the village center, the Capitanshaus has succeeded in creating an island, maritime, "vintage" atmosphere in its dining room without falling into kitsch or nostalgia. Fresh and modern, robust but refined, the front-of-the-house decor prepares the visiting diner for an invigorating experience. At our table, we enjoyed a mix of familiar and innovative fish dishes as well as one traditionally rendered German classic pork offering and one German classic pork dish that had been metamorphosed for modern tastes. Plating was elegant, refined, and even artistic--a notable contrast to the partitioned heaps of meat and proteins found in all too many Spiekeroog refectories. Service was crisp; it combined island friendliness with urban panache. Of all the restaurants on Spiekeroog, this one has been most successful in revitalizing traditional fare and in rising to modern culinary expectations.
