    Super fresh and reasonably priced seafood. Everything is grilled right there. The owners are friendly and the place is no frills. You May have to share tables but who cares! All the seafood comes with salad and sides. Don't forget to check the specials board for fresh fish of the day. I had the Rosa dorade and loved it!

    Karofisch was on my list of food places after seeing it on the @Hamburgfoodguide instagram. I just got back from a 3-day backpacking trip in the Austrian Alps, so on my return, after having eaten hearty meals in the Alpen Hütten (mountain huts), I was craving some good old Hamburg seafood. For the price, this place is perfect! (~7-12 Euros for plates, 3,50 Euros for a quick fish sandwich) Getting a seat outside may take some extra time (depending on when you go), but WORTH IT! But that's just a personal preference, I enjoy eating outdoors even if it's less spacious. In Germany, you normally have to pay for everything - from water to refills. But here, the garlic bread is free - bonus! You can imagine that I was already in a really good mood by the time my entree got to me. I got the mix platter (Fischmix) just because I knew I wouldn't be back any time soon so I wanted variety. Maybe it was the timing and circumstance that had me enjoying Karofisch so much, but as a lover of seafood and not spending too much money, this place is an ace!

    Viktoriabarsch-- comes with a starter green salad  and dipping sauces. Delicious!!!

    This restaurant was recommended to us by Evan, our Sandleman's local walking tour guide. The fish was fresh and delicious. It comes served with 3 dipping sauces--fish was so tasty without using the sauces. The potatoes have a yummy seasoning. This was the best meal we had in Hamburg! We ate a late afternoon lunch and there were many tables available.

    Kind service and huuuge portions of food. The mixed fish grill filled me up and I had to save the mixed salad I ordered for later. There isn't much seating, though.

    What a wonderful meal! Super crowded but they work magic to make everyone fit, even sitting people at open seats with others. As a party of two, we were sat at a four top with another party of two. Some people might not like this, but it promotes social meal time! Unfortunately we did not speak the same language as our dining companions but I love the idea and that the owners aren't afraid to make people a tad bit uncomfortable. Their fish is amazing. The potatoes, wow. The fresh veggies, ahhh I wish this place existed in the states too. If I ever make it back to Hamburg this will be my first stop!

    Really cute tiny restaurant but if you need space and want to have private conversations, then this place is not for you! On the other hand, if you are looking for freshly grilled fish and do not mind sharing your table with a couple you don't know, that's the perfect pick. And, guess what? It's really affordable (mains for ~10€)!

    Delicious fresh fish. It is sort of a fast food place in its atmosphere, but the quality of the food and service is far beyond that.

    Friendly staff. Small tables. Reasonable prices. Fish was overly salty but otherwise solid.

    CASA FRANCO FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…read more I came here twice with the company I was working for. Since my boss always paid for everything. BUT I'M SURE IT'S REALLY EXPENSIVE :D I think if I'd know the prices, I would pretty much give it ZERO stars hahahah. kidding :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, what we always got was: HUGE SCAMPIES ROASTET IN OIL + ALCOHOL served in huge flames A PLATE WITH DIFFERENT FISH FILETS + a unique secret sauce made by Franco STEAK, small peaces of steak with different sauces. and more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Honestly I don't remember it all but I know you get a lot, and all the seafood you get are really really delicious. I remember I dropped the whole steak I picked it up and still ate it, that's how good it was. But I was drunk anyways haha. LOCATION: Very very small, I guess about 20 people max. It's great, because it gives you a nice familiar cozy atmosphere. If you have the money and wanna do yourself somethiing good. Come here.

    Ay Carumba! Casa Franco is so much fun. I came here last night with some friends and I had a great…read moretime. For 27 euros you get a four-course meal complete with a flaming scallop starter, fish, more fish, and a delicious dessert. Mmm. The owner of the restaurant is fantastic. He's so attentive to his customers and makes a huge effort to entertain the entire restaurant. We got several free shots of alcohol and the entire restaurant toasts together. The atmosphere is cozy, festive, and lively. There was even a traditional guitar singer that serenaded us twice in the night. My favorite part of my four course meal was the parrot fish and the crème brûlée-like dessert. I'm not sure what it was, but it was GOOD. We also ordered a bottle of wine, which was 22 euros a bottle. I'd say the style of the food was Portuguese fusion. The fun part is that the chef decides what you will eat so you don't have to order your food. The fish that he served us was extremely fresh. I think this is a great place to go with some friends or to celebrate a special occasion like a birthday. At the end of the meal, the owner also gives the ladies a single rose. :) Four solid stars for the food, and 7 stars for the service. I'll most likely be back!
