Welcome to St. Pauli
– where Hamburg’s freshest seafood meets artisanal excellence.
Sustainability lies at the heart of everything we do, from ocean-friendly catches to locally sourced ingredients. With a curated selection of global wines and house-crafted cocktails, every visit offers a taste of true hospitality, a fresh, flavourful, and fun dining experience.
At XO Seafoodbar, we are committed to sustainable seafood and a deep respect for nature.
Our menu celebrates local fish and shellfish, offering more than the usual choices like salmon and tuna. We work with producers who share our values, reflecting the diversity and richness of our waters while supporting our community.
Enjoy a creative and welcoming atmosphere, where every meal tells the story of the ocean. Visit us at XO Seafoodbar, where freshness meets sustainability, and creativity thrives.
A LA CARTE MENU
Oysters shucked by hand.
Fish handled with just enough care.
Plates that taste of the sea and the market in one breath.
Here, flavour leads.
Light. Fresh. Alive.
From the harbour to your glass,
from the very first bite to the last
OMAKASE CHEF´S CHOICE
In France, there’s a simple pleasure in saying faites-moi confiance: "Just trust the chef".
Sit back, take your time. The menu drifts between beloved classics, fresh market finds, and little surprises from the kitchen. Always seasonal, always with a touch of XO.
FAMILY SUNDAY
Sundays are for family. In summer, the terrace is alive with chalk and skipping ropes. In winter, it’s crayons, paper, and little plates of fish to share.
Take your time. Leaf through a cookbook, steal a glimpse into the kitchen, there’s something here for everyone. And for the little ones under ten, fish fingers and a soft drink are on the house while the parents linger over dinner.
THE EXPERIENCE
