We had a great experience at this wonderful restaurant serving tasty Hamburg specialties. We ordered a tasting portion of the Labskaus, which is a Hamburg specialty. At first glance, I thought it looked a bit like a beef tartare, so I half expected the meat to be raw. The meat was definitely cooked, and it was very tasty, so much so that we almost regretted not getting the full portion. I also had the Kutterscholle Finkenwerder Art, which is a fried fish dish that is also a Hamburg specialty. It was very unique, although I found it a bit challenging to eat with how many bones there were in the fish. I'm sure this is because I'm not very practiced at eating fish, and not a reflection of their dish. I also loved the boiled potatoes that came as a side. Boiled potatoes are a weird thing to love, but these ones were soft and warm and very well-seasoned. I was also impressed with their house salad, from the variety of veggies to the tasty dressing used. The service was warm, and the restaurant had a nice dining environment. The prices were a bit higher, but given the quality of the food and service and the elevated dining environment, I thought they were quite reasonable. The only complaint I have is I thought the 8.50 euro charge for a bottle of water was a bit pricy. Overall I'd highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for food in Hamburg!
