The fries were really good, the burger was a little heavy on the toppings and sauce (not unusual for Germany, I've found). It wasn't bad though, I just prefer my burgers with less ketchup and stuff. The lemonade was also good, a nice suggestion from Liron. Don't forget to ask for it with regular water, not sparkling (unless you like sparkling lemonade). Edit: Oh, and I forgot to mention that our waiter was super cute and nice, even though we confused him a little bit with our indecisive switching between English and German

Close to transit and fully bilingual (they even had their outside signs in English), this is the…read moreplace for a veg breakfast in Hamburg! They have a robust menu of breakfast and lunch items, and everything we had was very tasty. My bestie did the French Toast with Belgian chocolate drops and whipped cream, which was a sugar bomb, but totally worth it in the end. I wanted to try little of everything, so I did the Canadian platter, which had veg bacon, pancakes, home fries, and scramble (I opted for tofu, but you can do eggs, too). It was all delicious, as was the coffee they freshly brewed and served in cute little mugs. (Mine had chickens on it!) I did subtract a star because the service was not the best. We had our drink order taken by someone else who stopped working the outside tables, and after waiting a really long time for our drinks, we just checked to make sure the order was communicated in the change of servers. The new server got very upset and told us there were 30 people and things took time. Considering the drinks came very quickly after - and with our food - I think there had been a mixup, and I didn't love how it was put back on us. It was also a mad hassle to get our check, but whatever... the food was awesome!

Sure, pancakes and other dishes would be a little more tasty and fluffier had they been made with butter and eggs, but it's good food, considering it's all vegan / vegetarian. More than generous portions. But the wait .... we waited a long time for our drinks, and literally over an hour for our food to arrive. It's a nice place to have a conversation with friends, but not fun when you notice that conversation has become one of waiting and sharing restaurant mess-up stories. Looking at other reviews, this seems to be a recurring theme; won't come back I think.

We came here for the summer special "Feinschmecker" menu series - those were really good value given the food quality. That being said, it was good, but I felt the quality didn't quite live up to their regular prices. Ok, location does play a role here. And the Schnitzels at the neighboring tables were huge, as tradition demands.

We ordered the veal shank for two which I HIGHLY recommend. It was served with crispy potatoes, mushrooms that looked like chanterelle (but weren't), an amazing pumpkin dish and some delicious sauce to round out the meal. For desert we had the soufflé which was light and no to be missed. It's not easy to find as other reviewers have mentioned, but just get your gps to get you to the door and take the escalator up one level inside the mall and you're good to go.

Came here for the 4th of July to get my American fix. My partner tried the spare ribs, and I had the crispy chicken sandwich. The spare ribs were awesome, my partner was in heaven. The crispy chicken was nothing special however... next time I'd just go with a regular burger as it seems red meat is more their specialty? We also tried the cheesecake here and it was pretty good, but a pretty small slice for the price. Overall, worth a visit if you need some American flavor in your life!

After he said: "Enjoy your last meal here" , we just got out of this place. Absurd experience ! I don't suggest it: poor quality food and even worse service.

The food was about 2 *'s and it's definitely a case of quality over quantity. I got currywurst - the curry sauce tasted bottled, and the sausage wasn't well cooked. My kids got schnitzel and they said it was "mid". Honestly I think German food kind of caps out at 4 *'s - there's only so much you can do with boiled potatoes and kraut and sausages.

That's probably the only downside for me as I am vegetarian and they lack a bit in that department but I always get the "Bauernfrühstück" without the ham. This is basically an Omelette with potatoes and pickled cucumbers on top and it taste just like I remember it from my childhood, so just for that I go there ... I am sure they even have more dishes that are vegetarian but I never tried. The most special thing will be their opening hours as their kitchen is open all night long which makes the place also popular among party people also there is a table reserved for cab drivers.

The food was hot and even the fries were crispy. The burger was tasty and had fresh ingredients.

I would say it's a solid burger, but you just can't compare it to really good burger like at In-n-out. The diner itself is held in a 60's style, red furniture and chrome. It's a nice place to get a bite to eat.

But: - Apparently the person showing guests the tables was new, and she sent everyone to tables serviced by the same waitress. - As a result, every time we wanted to order drinks or food, it took ages to order, and even longer to arrive. - After waiting an hour for our food, it turned out the kitchen lost our order (and of the table next to us), and we had to wait ages again for our food. Not sure the good food outweighted the huge wait.
