Waren vor einigen Tagen da. Service sehr nett, essen war,…read morenaja, ok. Leider sind einige unserer Steaks nicht auf den Punkt gegart, wie gewünscht wurde. Jeder hatte die selbe garstige bekommen, rosa/ durch. Zurückgegeben hab ich nicht, sonst müsste ich wieder ewig warten. Musste schon ne knappe Stunde warten. hatte schon Hunger, nochmals wollte ich nicht. Leider war das Essen auch noch kalt, die Butter war auf dem Fleisch nicht geschmolzen. Alles war kalt. Nicht nur bei meinem Teller. Einige Teller standen wohl in der Küche ewig herum, bis die an den Tisch kamen, so waren die. Evtl müsste ich nächste mal was anderes bestellen. :( Salatportion fällt leider etwas zu klein aus, im Vergleich zu den anderen malen, die ich bestellt hatte. Außerdem schmeckten die Bohnen etwas säuerlicher. Bratkartoffeln waren diesmal auch trocken und die Speckstücke waren dunkel und hart. Wohl kein guter Tag gewesen. Getränke Karte umfangreich. Die kamen auch recht schnell. Die Hälfte der Gäste hatte das Essen geschmeckt, den anderen waren nicht so begeistert. Leider diesmal von der hahnenburg sehr enttäuscht :(( sonst sind wir sehr gerne dort ( die Woche davor bei blockhouse war besser gewesen)/ aber der Service war da etwas schlechter) Hoffe das nächste Mal klappt's besser Soviel Pech kann man nicht haben

This is certainly the best gutbürgerliche (traditional German food) restaurant in central Hannover…read moreand may be one of the best of this increasingly rare type in all of Germany. The Schweinshaxe and Eisbein are especially fine, the former exploding with molten fat from perfectly crisped skin. I rate Max W. at five stars for doing what it does so well, but to enjoy it--indeed to eat there at all--you must adhere exactingly to its Unwritten Laws. Despite its working man's prices and an interior looking like a down-at-heel Studentenkneipe this is a feinschmeker (gourmet) restaurant and must be treated as such. You need to reserve by telephone at least several days in advance, and humbly offer them an appealing number of diners (ideally either four or six: they have only 25 places at tables and four stools at the bar and must be ruthless about maximizing their yield: do not even think of asking for a table for one; they will simply refuse (reserve--and you do still need to reserve--a seat at the bar). Persons wandering in without a reservation hoping for a table--and especially tourists without German--are treated with fine forthright traditional north-German rudeness: "Nein! Nein! Weg! Weg!" (Sometimes in chorus.) This is a performance--once one has actually received permission to eat there the staff are warm and charming in a rough, Hannover, sort of way--but, I guarantee you (having suffered this) that you will not recognize the tone of your expulsion as a jolly act when it occurs, nor will you notice the ironical pleasure the regulars are taking in your fate, because you have just become a familiar--three or four times an hour--and well-loved part of the evening's entertainment. This is the same particularly German form of quiet rejoycing at the artful humiliation of others that has made Sven, the cruel bouncer at Berlin's legendary Berghain dance club, a figure of national affection. Those refused entry at Max W. become a special German sauce on the already superb food. And whether you end up as a diner or back on the pavement with your head spinning, either way you have had a perfectly authentic Hannover experience.

Went to Högers on the advice of the hotel concierge. Alas, while the interior is interesting and…read morethe outdoor seating was pleasant, the service speed and accuracy were far off. They took our order -- for two people -- and one order (traditional German breakfast item with scrambled eggs and a variety of breads) arrived while the other did not. After about 25 minutes, a different waitress than the one who had taken my order advised us they had forgotten to enter it. They produced the forgotten item -- a Classic Burger, which the waitress had recommended over the schnitzel -- about five minutes later. Sadly, the burger bun was stale, and the patty itself unexceptional. The fries and salad were above average, however. With all the dining options around, you can do better.
