Service is relatively quick for Germany, and has so far always been friendly and pleasant.
Cocktails are *not* strong, but they are tasty - order for the taste, not the booze content. I recommend the red sake ...thing. Can't remember what it's called, but it's a sort of pomegranate-mint concoction. The tea is nice, too; the green tea is flavourful and comes in a generous bowl.
The spring and summer rolls are always delicious. Always.
You can't get a bigger, cheaper, better bowl of pho in Hamburg! I've had chicken, beef, pork, and tofu soups, and haven't had a bad bowl yet.
Edit: if you're not in the mood for soup, get the bun cha (or bun something else) - crispy pork on warm noodles with cold veg and sauce to pour over it. So, so good, and quite filling.
Oh! And their garlic-chili condiment sauce is so good you practically want to eat it with a spoon. I just shovel that stuff into the soup.
Atmosphere is very casual, and if it gets crowded you may end up sharing a bench with strangers: it really is street-kitchen style. But that's not bad - it's very convivial. When the weather's cold and rainy, the windows all steam up and everything feels warm and friendly.
This is one of the best places for lunch on a cold Hamburg day. Highly recommended! But note - it's cash only!
