RESTAURANT SUMMARY

Where the Moselle River meets culinary artistry, Gotthardt's by Yannick Noack transforms fine dining into an intimate theater of precision and creativity. Nestled within Koblenz's architectural marvel, the FÄHRHAUS hotel, this exclusive 20-seat restaurant represents the pinnacle of German gastronomy under the guidance of the country's youngest two-Michelin-starred chef.
Yannick Noack's journey began as a child attending courses with three-star legend Dieter Müller, igniting a passion that would propel him to unprecedented heights. After earning acclaim at PURS in Andernach, Noack opened Gotthardt's in December 2024, swiftly earning two Michelin stars by June 2025. His avant-garde approach marries French technique with German sensibilities, creating a culinary philosophy that elevates regional ingredients through innovative artistry and sustainable sourcing practices.
The cuisine at Gotthardt's showcases Noack's signature precision through dishes like North Sea crab with Romana lettuce, hemp, and curds, or the remarkable duck liver paired with rosé lemonade, yogurt, and spinach. His multi-course tasting menus, ranging from five to eight courses, feature standout creations such as veal from Alte Werte Farm with green asparagus and San Marzano tomato, and guinea fowl with chanterelles, coffee, and peas. Desserts like wild strawberry with amaranth and spruce shoots demonstrate his commitment to unexpected flavor combinations and seasonal ingredients.
The restaurant's crown jewel is its four-seat Chef's Table positioned directly within the open kitchen, offering unparalleled access to Noack's culinary choreography while providing spectacular Moselle River views. The remaining sixteen seats maintain perfect sightlines to the kitchen, ensuring every guest witnesses the meticulous craft behind each dish. This intimate setting, complemented by the FÄHRHAUS hotel's contemporary luxury design, creates an atmosphere of quiet sophistication and exclusivity.
Service at Gotthardt's reflects the same precision found in the cuisine, with polished professionals orchestrating seamless multi-course experiences. The carefully curated wine program emphasizes European labels, enhanced by an impressive selection of house-made alcohol-free pairings that complement Noack's complex flavor profiles. Each element, from the welcome drink served at the pass to the final petit four, demonstrates the restaurant's commitment to perfection.
Securing a reservation at Gotthardt's requires advance planning, as the limited seating and growing international recognition make tables increasingly coveted. For discerning diners seeking Germany's most innovative cuisine in an unparalleled riverside setting, Gotthardt's by Yannick Noack offers an unforgettable journey through contemporary European gastronomy.
