I'd love to give the Abaton a bit more than 3 stars, but I really can't! There is an incredible…read moredraught in this place that they know about, but apparently can do nothing about. You literally have to sit in a scarf to eat here. Not brilliant! The schnitzel was OK, but a bit dry. On the plus side, the staff are really nice, so I'm not going to give them 2 stars. If they sort out the heating, and get some sauce like Erika's, this would be an ideal pre-cinema venue.

The atmosphere is comfortable and warm but it gets loud when it's full. The food is relatively traditional - pizza, pasta, schnitzel, salads, desserts. All of it is yummy! A good selection of drinks is also available. My favorite dessert is the Crème Brûlée.

I had Beauty and the Beast to start, which is a mousse de canard with pork rillettes, which was delicious. To follow was a superb steak frites (see photo!). The dessert was slightly less impressive, pear tart, but the accompanying ice cream was very nice. Three courses plus wine for EUR45 per person a la carte, the set menu is EUR28.

That's exactly how French provencal restaurant should be, they got it rght! Expect French classics like coq au vin, creme brulee, tart au chocolait, etc. Expect them melt in your mouth and crave for more. Yes, you've got the idea, I'm a fan now :) Beware though: it's very popular, so book in advance. And it's not cheap.

However "Goldene Gans" managed to make us happy. It was crowded, but luckily they have a very nice back section, which I did not know about. So the restaurant is a good deal larger than it appears at first sight. The service was perfect and was not uncomfortable by a mixed language group (In-laws speak neither English nor German). The waiter handled everything graciously, brought the baby-chair for our little one (as soon as it was free) without the need for a reminder. Sharing dishes so everybody gets to try everything was no problem either an de got extra knifes and forks. We had deer, pork, Zander and trout. All tasted very good.

Not many dishes on the menu, but along with fish and seafood you'll see one regional (Northern Germany) speciality which brings an intersting twist. Simply but tastefully furnished. Very polite and attentive service. And what I found pretty amazing, families with kids are welcome. So if you're put off by snobby French restaurants in Hamburg, try Marseille!
