Neobiota - THEY SERVE VEGAN FOOD IN REAL OYSTER SHELLS!!!!! SERIOUSLY??????? - Edit
UNETHICAL. Please do not support a non-vegan business that is solely focused on profit and does not do right by customers...
Read moreMoreover, be aware, THEY SERVE VEGAN FOOD IN REAL OYSTER SHELLS!!!!! SERIOUSLY??????? Is this a joke they are playing on vegans to throw it in our faces?
Despite the things above, other things whet wrong that were a bit shocking:
Our experience at Neobiota left much to be desired, with the management's response adding insult to injury. Despite specifically booking a tasting meal, we were misled into believing that a wine pairing was included. Imagine our shock when the bill, originally estimated at 250 EUR, suddenly soared to 500 EUR, all due to this unexpected addition.
Despite our clear request for a drinks menu, we were told none existed. We told the staff we didn't want a pairing because we generally do not like them (which ended up being the case here) and it's more alcohol than we want to consume. Nevertheless, the staff continued to be adamant about a pairing being part of our booking. Feeling uneasy about pressing further and drawing unwanted attention, we reluctantly agreed to proceed without the information we desired.
Upon receiving the inflated bill, the staff saw were were shocked and told us no manager was available, so we paid and hoped to address the issue discreetly later with management. However, our efforts were met with resistance from Sonja, whose defensive stance and refusal to engage in constructive dialogue only exacerbated the situation. Despite our requests for a phone call to resolve the matter amicably, we were met with stonewalling and a lack of acknowledgment of the errors made.
I cannot recommend a business that puts profits first, misleads/lies to customers, and finds humor serving vegans "vegan food" inside real oyster shells.

Sterne Essen = Kunst essen - Edit
Sehr gutes Veganes Menu mit Stern. Zusammen mit uns Veganern wurde am Tisch auch Omni gegessen, wodurch wir gut vergleichen konnten. Abstriche mussten wir als pflanzlich essende nach unseren Beobachtungen nicht machen und selbst beim Fleisch für die anderen, wurde wohl Fleisch von älteren „glücklicheren“ Tieren verwendet, was wohl ungewohnt im Geschmack war für alle „Fleischfresser“ (wiederhole hier nur den Wortlaut des Kochs. Der schien eher mit den Veganern am Tisch zu sympathisieren).
Read moreKann die Alkoholfreie Getränkebegleitung nicht unbedingt empfehlen, da hier eher Geschmäcker aus den Gerichten wieder aufgenommen wurden, als auch mal etwas zum Ausgleich anzubieten (z.B. viel Raucharoma zu geräuchertem essen etc).
Essen also fantastisch aber man muss halt mit dem Preis rechnen.
Muss mich an dieses Stelle vielleicht noch kurz für meine laute und anstrengende Familie beim Personal entschuldigen. Beim nächsten mal kommen wir ohne Eltern und Hund…

Auster Thematik in vorherigen Posts:
Kann verstehen, dass man ein Problem damit hat, Veganes Essen in Austern serviert zu bekommen. Denke aber, dass die Austern hier wieder verwendet werden, da keine Austern in irgendeinem Gericht aufgetaucht sind. Da es sich hier nicht um ein rein Pflanzliches Restaurant handelt, kann man da glaube ich mit leben.
(Den wissenschaftliches Aspekt außen vor, dass man bei Austern bis jetzt nicht nachgewiesen hat, ob sie sentient sind oder nicht)

Casual Fine Dining: Excellent Vegan Dinner Menu in Super Cozy Atmosphere - Edit
We went to Neobiota on a Saturday night. We ordered the six-course vegan menu plus the wine pairing.
Read moreIn addition to the printed menu, you are brought a plethora of amuses-bouches / “greetings from the kitchen” in between some courses; turning your six-course dinner into something more akin to a twelve-course tasting menu. These in-between dishes are easily as delicious and almost as elaborate as the actual courses. Though clearly delicately prepared, they manage to somehow remain down-to-earth.
Right out of the gate, I particularly enjoyed the bread foam Madeleine, one of those amouses-bouches. While that may sound somewhat pretentious, it was utterly delicious. At some point in the dinner, you are also served an entire mini loaf of freshly baked bread. That warm bread is so wonderful that you will be sad that you just got the one loaf. From the actual courses, I will remember the potato with smoked vegetables and linseed for a long time, as well as the meadowsweet. (They must scour half the country for some of these ingredients.)
Our dinner was brought to a close with sunroot ice cream served alongside oxalis and cranberries. An earthy yet light combination that ended the evening on just the right note. Though it doesn't need to end there as you will be offered a single origin coffee and a wide selection of interesting spirits. We tried the mountain hay spirit as well as a gentian spirit—both delicious.
The restaurant is quite small and cozy. All staff are attentive, very affable, and knowledgeable. So from the food, to the drinks, to the atmosphere, it's just a pleasure to spend an evening at Neobiota. Everyone is very easy-going and relaxed making the experience almost casual. So in that regard, do not be deterred by their Michelin Star.
Apparently they also have vegan options for breakfast, but we haven't tried those yet.
On previous visit, I chose the non-alcoholic drink pairings which are just as exciting as the food. The sommelier seems to go to quite some lengths to invent and prepare unique drinks for that pairing.
Overall, not a dinner you will have every other night but a wonderful and memorable experience for special occasions.
Pros: Uniquely inventive & absolutely delicious food, Very cozy and welcoming atmosphere, Personale and knowledgable staff

Meh. - Edit
Had the 3-course breakfast here some time ago and I was not blown away. Our food was served on some old and chipped enamelled dishes, and the restaurant on the inside was teeny tiny, definitely unusual for a Michellin-starred eatery. As they clearly state that vegan dinner was available, I felt adventurous and booked a table for breakfast, clearly stating that I wished for vegan options. I had a veganized Grüne Stulle (open-face sandwich) topped with peas, mushrooms and sprouts, but drenched in a very sour sauce which made it very difficult to finish. The vegan bircher müsli was super good, but my 3rd course was this cinnamon bun whereas my sister got this pancake tower, which was kinda disappointing and underwhelming. (The pancakes weren't even that good apparently, she only finished one and a half as they were too dense.) Maybe dinner is the better choice here but the first impression that neobiota left on me doesn't excite me enough to make me want to come back.
