Except for one of the five courses, all were delicious (and the other was certainly not a disaster ;) just a little pedestrian, easily doable at home). They have a good selection of wines under 40€ too; our waiter actually recommended us to go with bottles rather than their carefree wines, water, coffee offer, and I think she was right. good times were had! :)

Despite being really close to the office, I hadn't yet been to Brook - maybe because it is a little…read morebit more expensive than our usual quick lunch places! However, I thoroughly recommend it as lunchtime business venue or evening romantic spot. Situated on the busy Bei den Muhren, overlooking the water, we were able to watch the usual Hamburg weather (bright sunshine then aggressive winds and then torrential rain) rush past in the space of a relaxing 1.5 hours The restaurant itself is large and spacious with an open and modern design. Window tables such as we had I think will be much more pleasant than the inner tables. The 3 course daily lunch menu was excellent and very decent value for this quality of food: A lovely and delicate / frothy asparagus soup, tuna steak on a tomato risotto and a delicate fruit tart with ice-cream. Only minor quibble would be the speed of service - fine for a leisurely evening meal, but perhaps a little slow for a lunchtime off the set menu. But overall a really good discovery. I will be back.

It's a well designed restaurant and the pricing was fine. Beyond that, I was extremely…read moredisappointed. Even ignoring that the waiter spilled wine on me twice and the flies that were everywhere in our corner of the restaurant, I thought the food was fair at best. The meat was too salty, the wasabi was bland and they somehow managed to botch the edamame. It was even more disappointing given that our group was looking forward to a world class experience.

Time for an english review!…read more For starters do NOT let the whole in the wall appearance fool you! The food here while Imbiss can compete with any restaurant, I eat out a lot for work and do NOT give 5 stars often, but I am giving it here, just like all the other people who reviewed this place. Went here first Germany visit back in January 2014; this visit in July 2014 went 3 times. On the first visit in July the owner recognized me from the January visit, wow 6 month who knows how many customers and he recognizes me :). From my 3 meals there all were good BUT the rotisserie chicken I had was probably the best I had since living in Germany 35 years, yes years ago! The skin was perfectly roasted NOT the least bit soggy; but the meat was so moist and tender. The cucumber salad with oil and vinegar dressing had great taste, wish my dressing be like that when I make it. :( According to the owner all the recipes are made by his wife, who I did not meet. None of the so called "German" restaurant foods I have eaten throughout the US even come anywhere close to this Imbiss place. Only have 2 complaints.... why can't this place be in New York?? :( and as everything is so GOOD the biggest challenge is what to order :) Can't wait to eat here again on next Germany visit! :) For all the lucky locals go enjoy this place!!! :)

I am all for cheap and cheerful, but please give me a break.....I hadnt read all the reviews , but I certainly read some before I went and they are not a fair gauge of the quality of the food or the establishment.....two stars and yes, the chicken was nice.....

There are quite a few other German specialties on the menu as well as regional dishes and others. The massive schnitzel is served on a plate of it's own, topped with a fried egg, but also comes complete with a delicious side salad and an excellent serving of bratkartoffeln with specks of onion and bacon. The meal is quite sizable for one person and my wife and I have shared it a few times, while ordering a curry rostbratwurst between us as well. The space here is quite large, a comfortable rustic setting, and ideal for groups. We've also never felt it necessary to make reservations in advance which is nice when you are looking for last-minute good food options.

The interior is quite cool, with cool glass balls hanging from the ceiling. I had the koenig platter which consists of fried potatoes, chicken, lamb, beef and a side salad. It isn't called the kings plate for nothing. I absolutely loved the chicken; very soft and well marinated. Absolutely tasty! The lamb and the beef disappointed. Pretty dry; maybe they should add some gravy to them. The salad was tasty too. An interesting thing I noted from a friend who got the veggie burger is that the german veggie burger doesn't have a pattie! This really shocked me but I was told this is pretty common in Germany. Still I find it really hard to accept a burger without a pattie.
