The Ritz-Carlton is located in the heart of Volkswagen's fascinating Autostadt, and here – somewhat hidden on the ground floor at the end of a corridor – is a truly worthwhile destination for any gourmet: Aqua. The decor is elegant and sleek, the front-of-house team is professional and at the same time pleasantly informal and friendly – there's no need to be intimidated by three-star cuisine here! The dishes are impressively innovative, occasionally surprising and feature remarkably bold combinations. It's not just "Sicher char & roasted beechnut seeds, avocado & cucumber" or " lobster & braised pork chin, carrot, crustacean mayonnaise" that whet the appetite. Sven Elverfeld always succeeds in presenting complex dishes with ease. To sum up: this place is all about eating, experiencing and enjoying!
