    old southern German style restaurant
    Regis K.

    Want to experience authentic Bavarian food, you got to come to eat at Franziskaner. It's a wonderful restaurant where you can truly enjoy hearty Southern German food and hospitality. By the time you step into the restaurant, you are welcomed with amazing German enthusiasm and warmth. Servers are all wearing the Southern German Bavarian traditional custom. And the interior transports you to another German era. You know you're going in for a treat of great German food. Our big waiter gave us great recommendations of all the famous Bavarian dishes. Our orders covered them all that included sausages, sauerkraut, veggies, knuckle of pork and cold beers. I highly recommend the crispy knuckle of pork. The skin is so crispy and the meat inside is so tender. the meat felt off bone literally. Another thing you got to have is their beer. We got light beers and they were so good. Much better than the beers we've ever had in the states. We will definitely be back for more of these foods before we leave Hamburg.

    What a wonderful restaurant! We were looking for a place that had both delicious food and an inviting Bavarian character to it. Not only does Franziskaner deliver on those two points, but the service was outstanding as well! We arrived in town late and didn't have a chance to make reservations, but the owner went out of his way to accommodate us anyway. Then our lovely waitress gave us excellent and descriptive recommendations based on our thoughts and all of us came away raving about our dishes! Some of the best food we've ever had! We will definitely be back!

    Hefeweizen and a Schweinshaxen...

    It is so good to see the Bavarian chain restaurants finding homes all over Germany, especially here in the north. This Franziskaner was as good as the original in Munich, actually one of the best Schweinshaxen I have every had- crispy outside, juicy inside. The Hefeweizen was fresh and cold, the staff very friendly and happy to see you. I was also thrilled that it was Spargel season and they had Spargelcremesuppe on the menu. While there are several Bavarian places in Hamburg, this place rates the best...

    Amazing selection of German beers on tap!

    Amazing selection of German beers on tap! Authentic Bavarian decor. Charming, welcoming, quiet and relaxing. The perfect end to a perfect day of shopping and sightseeing. Will definitely be back.

    Some of the better Bavarian food I have eaten in Germany. Sat outside on the patio, beautiful day. Had the schnitzel with fried potatoes (Bratkartoffeln) with Cole slaw. Omg. To die for. My waitress was sweet as pie. Highly recommend!!

    I arrived in Hamburg and wanted to stay close to my hotel for dinner. I came across Opitz, a very…read morenice and what appears to be traditional German restaurant and gave it a try. The atmosphere is cozy traditional. It's down a few steps from the street level and you enter a somewhat dark, candle lit dining area. The tables and seating seem to be an eclectic collection that work well together. My server was prompt and I ordered a "Jever" pilsner beer to start. She brought over an English menu and made some suggestions. I took her suggestion for "Pork medallions with button mushrooms ala creme and fried potatoes". This was three thick slices of pork tenderloin. This and the potatoes were delicious and a very generous portion. Enough for two meals, but I ate it all anyway. :) I wanted a somewhat traditional German-style meal and I believe that I got it. :) Cheers.

    What I think is a family style typical German fare place. They do have English language menus…read more The potato and pea soup were home made and very good. The bowl portion came with an entire smoked sausage and was a large portion. The rump steak was as good as it can be. The beef remoulade was not rolled but thin sliced cold beef served with some onions and a mild horse radish sauce. My companion enjoyed the herring plate. Four types of herring. All served with fried potatoes family style.

    Very refined mom and pop shop with a limited but delicious menu that has all the Hamburg classics…read more I reserved a table via email three weeks before Mother's Day to get a spot for dinner with my family. A little old school but I can respect it. We came in and filled the last table-the place was already so lively at 6:30 on a Sunday (Mother's Day). They have English menus and were (of course) offering an asparagus specialty menu. We went with a couple beers, a shandy, a Schnitzel, mixed fish plate and the whole fish. Everything was so delicious and we could see the singular chef working and the singular woman wait all the tables. The only thing was that the shandy was actually made on site, with sprite and beer from tap. It was an interesting flavor. Would recommend this to anyone to get Hamburg classics!
