However "Goldene Gans" managed to make us happy. It was crowded, but luckily they have a very nice back section, which I did not know about. So the restaurant is a good deal larger than it appears at first sight. The service was perfect and was not uncomfortable by a mixed language group (In-laws speak neither English nor German). The waiter handled everything graciously, brought the baby-chair for our little one (as soon as it was free) without the need for a reminder. Sharing dishes so everybody gets to try everything was no problem either an de got extra knifes and forks. We had deer, pork, Zander and trout. All tasted very good.

This place is hard to review. The vibe and the atmosphere weree 4.5 *'s - as other reviewers have…read moresaid, it's a pleasantly unpretentious place. 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.

Erikas Eck is a true Hamburg original! This place does not…read morewant to be hip or follow any trends they just focus on providing very good traditional (northern) german food. 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.

A typical corner bar. What differentiates them from many others is that it is now a "smoking club"…read more This means that to technically be here you have to become a "member". It's a Euro per year so if you want to smoke to your heart's content, well worth it. Nothing extraordinary here. A typical German "Kneipe". As a friend lives in the area and is a militant smoker, always the first stop for an evening of beers. You definately have a colorful mix of the "locals" here and although it's not an "in" place, you get your share of Ottensen's yuppies. It's a fun place though and tends to now be quite full as it is a smoker's hangout. If you enjoy your smoke first- or second-hand, worth checking out if in the area.

The schnitzel was excellent, as well as the asparagus and, surprisingly, the asparagus mousse…read more(likely a seasonal dish). Service was prompt and friendly. The restaurant is in, let's say, an exotic part of town, but certainly not scary or unsafe. The dining area is upstairs (no elevator). Very clean and open decor, well lit. It gave the impression that we left Hamburg and entered Austria. Would definitely go again if i'm in the neighborhood.

Airy place catering to a smart crowd in Zeisehallen, Ottensen…read more Didn't like the food too much; Pizzas are a main part of their offering, but they serve a quality that feels dated by 15 years now. Some of their wines (e.g. their open Sauvignon Blanc) on the other hand pretty good. Service friendly but occasionally slow. If you are after very good Pizza in this part of town, do yourself a favor and seek out either "Pizza ZweiPunktNull" or "Farina meets Mehl" instead.

Die Preise sind voll ok, leider nehmen sie dort keine Kreditkarten - nur ec oder cash. auf jeden Fall mal hingehen - lohnt sich!

I used to live in Frankfurt back in the 80s and love German cuisine. I am from Galveston Tx but all the quote unquote German Restaurants suck. The only one hat was great unfortunately closed. They didn't have the oopa music and wait staff dressed in lederhosen. So anytime I come back I will eat here. Food is great
