Not sure it deserves #3 of 800+ on "UrbanFork" website... Started on the patio with drinks for about 1 hr. Inside, nice European atmosphere. I had a pork dish with sweet potatoes & vegetables. It was OK, thin sliced chop type sections cooked medium rare with a sauce on top. Others had the lamb, steak, and seafood dishes. It was upscale in both atmosphere and price.

The view is fine during the day but at night you see the lamp in the window and nothing except darkness. I live in California and New York city and travel the world. I have never been treated so terrible and when I told them that we were disappointed. The staff actually yelled at us rude remarks. I am half German and could not believe the treatment we received.

Which is why it was such a surprise to find that he decided to set up such a jewel of a restaurant in the most forgotten of corners in Hannover. In a tree structure right out of Middle Earth where, as it was divulged to me by several foodie friends, many a restaurant venture died, Jante has boldly set up a scandi styled establishment serving food experiences. Bordering on Michelin star territory (which we now know they are worthy of!!!!) each creation is playfully and skillfully crafted to tantalize taste buds as well as the other senses. We had a "tzatziki" dessert that was such a delicious surprise because it tasted so good: cold yogurt sorbet with cucumber chips and sweet pickled cubes of cold fresh cucumber over a sweet raisin puree. Innovative and deserving of all the accolades they've recently gotten with great service to boot!
