Sebastian Frank, originally from Lower Austria, began his culinary journey with training and mentorship at Vienna’s esteemed Steirereck under Helmut Reit. In 2010, he moved to Berlin, refining his style at Horváth, where he quickly gained major international recognition. By 2014, Sebastian and his wife Jeannine took over the restaurant, which has since earned multiple prestigious accolades and continues to be widely celebrated. Jeannine handles the business side of operations while Sebastian focuses on the kitchen.

Horváth is renowned for its distinctive approach to fine dining, with a menu that challenges traditional conventions. Sebastian’s culinary vision centers on creating powerful, authentic flavors, particularly through his concept of “emancipated vegetable cuisine.” This innovative style highlights the natural taste and aroma of vegetables and fruits, pairing them with complementary elements for a balanced and harmonious experience.

Located in Berlin’s Kreuzberg, the restaurant blends historic charm with modern design, offering a dynamic and inviting atmosphere. Under Sebastian and Jeannine’s leadership, Horváth remains one of the most exciting and influential dining destinations in Germany.
