North Sea ling cooked in nut butter with lobster ravioli gives you the measure of this sleek French restaurant on Norderney: classical technique with just enough contemporary edge to keep things interesting. The bright, pared-down dining room sits beside a large window façade, and the terrace outside makes good use of the island light. It's a polished room that earns its place on an island better known for mudflats than fine dining.

The kitchen at this hotel restaurant on Norderney takes North Sea regionality and quietly slips in Mediterranean instincts, octopus and aioli sitting comfortably alongside local catches. The room is sleek with a nautical lean, the open kitchen keeps things honest, and the service lands somewhere between professional and genuinely easygoing. In summer, the hidden courtyard terrace is where you want to be. A children's menu means the whole family can show up without a plan.

A terrace over the Leda River, a view of the museum harbour, and shrimp soup on the menu: this is a traditional regional restaurant that has been doing its thing in the centre of Leer for long enough that the chef trained here as an apprentice before eventually running the place. The room leans into old inn character with maritime accents, and the kitchen keeps close to North Sea and seasonal produce. Lunch runs a little simpler than dinner.

The conservatory looks straight out over the lake, which makes it easy to forgive the menu for leaning a little international when the kitchen is clearly happiest with local lake fish and game. It's a polished hotel restaurant set inside sprawling parkland, the kind of room where jackets feel appropriate and no one's in a rush. The garden terrace pulls a similar crowd in warmer months, and a casino sits on the premises if dinner needs a second act.
