But it's a nice enough street to enjoy the view, bonus that it's a mere block from the UBahn. They have a nice selection of drinks, including non-alcholic, and I got a spritzer which was lovely. I ordered the schnitzel and it absolutely knocked my socks off. It was SO good. It came with roasted potatoes, which were perfectly roasted, and a nice refreshing salad. It was one the best things I ate on my vacation in Hamburg. I ended the meal with flourless chocolate cake which was also delicious. My waiter was also wonderful. He was incredibly kind, including when I broke a glass!

It is kind of sad that in a city like Hamburg, where so many restaurants and shops offer fish, it…read moreseems to be impossible to get some really good fish and chips. Henssler is no exception. I can not say anything about any of the dishes you can get inside the restaurant. I just wanted fish and chips to take away. And it wasn't bad. But that is all. And from a name like Henssler, one would expect a bit more. Maybe Hamburg simply isn't the place for a simple portion of fish and chips. If you really want that, wait till you get to Travemünde for example. Had fish and chips in a small and extremely simple restaurant in the port of Travemünde and was surprised by the way better quality than that of Henssler at a lower price.

Also tried their sweet potato fries with guac but the guac was a bit too watery for my taste. All in all a really nice place to stop by after shopping. Thumbs up for the great staff!

Die schwarzhaarige Kellnerin gehört zu den unhöflichsten, wenn nicht sogar zur unhöflichsten…read moreKellnerinnen, die ich je getroffen habe: Sie war so unfreundlich, dass sie, glaube ich, die gesamte Bestellung unserer vierköpfigen Gruppe vermasselt hat, weil sie Amerikaner verachtet. Ich bestellte das Labskous-Gericht, aber sie brachte ein Gulaschgericht und bestand darauf, dass das meine Bestellung sei, und behauptete, Labskous stehe gar nicht auf der Speisekarte. Dann ging sie abrupt und kam weder zurück noch kümmerte sie sich um die falsche Bestellung - wir hören sie sich beim Herrn hinter der Bar über meine Bestellung beschweren. Das Fischgericht, das wir bestellt hatten, war ungleichmäßig gegart und enthielt rohe Fischstücke sowie Schnitzel - auch dieses hatte rohe, blutige Stücke. Einem Mitglied unserer Gruppe wurde von dem rohen Essen schlecht und er verbrachte eine Weile auf der Restauranttoilette. Es regnete und die Porzellanfliesen waren so rutschig, dass es beinahe zu einem Ausrutscher und Sturz gekommen wäre. Nachdem ich darauf bestanden hatte, dass ich das Labskous-Gericht wollte, brachte sie es, nachdem alle den essbaren, d. h. durchgegarten Teil ihrer jeweiligen Mahlzeit aufgegessen hatten. Sie grinste mich an, als ich das Labskous nicht aufaß, da es ebenfalls nicht durchgegart war. Die Kartoffelpuffer waren mit Puderzucker bestreut, was unerwartet und eklig war, aber vielleicht ist das typisch deutsch. Sie berechnete mir das Gulasch, das nicht gegessen und nicht bestellt wurde. Der Rest meiner Gruppe war sehr verärgert über die Restaurantwahl und die schlechte Behandlung. The black haired waitress is among the rudest waitresses if not the rudest that I have ever met: she was so bad that I think she screwed with our group of four entire order because she despises Americans. I ordered the Labskous dish, but she brought some goulash dish and insisted that it was what I had ordered and claimed that Labskous was not even on the menu. She then abruptly left and did not return or deal with the wrong order- we hear her complaining to the gentleman behind the bar about my order. The fish dish we ordered was unevenly cooked and had raw fish sections as well as the Shnitzel- it had raw bloody sections as well. A member of our party became ill over the raw food and spent awhile in the restaurant toilet. It was raining and the porcelain floor tiles were so slippery there was almost a slip and fall accident. After insisting I wanted the Labskous dish she brought it after everyone had finished the edible part, ie cooked through, part of their respective meals. She smirked at me when I did not finish the Labskous as it too was not cooked through. The potato pancakes had powdered sugar on them which was unexpected and gross but maybe that is a German thing. She charged for the goulash which was uneaten and not ordered. The rest of my party was very upset with this choice of restaurant and how poorly we were treated. Here is photo of raw Schnitzel.

And you have been assured you get fresh, healthy food. But wait there is more, inside this marketplace, there is a restaurant. And this restaurant sources most of his ingredients from the fresh marketplace as well. So you have a delicious, healthy often-changing menu. You get almost exclusively regional and seasonal food in a surprising North German cuisine - authentic, down to earth, delicious. They have up to 200 producers around my home town of Hamburg that are usually offered here in the market hall and also prepared in the kitchen. Hobenköök is a new culinary place in the old, almost forgotten district of Hamburg Oberhafen, it is a unique combination of restaurant, market hall, serving mostly regional and seasonal food offered and prepared to surprising, genuine and of course delicious North German food. Yummy and worth every visit! It is so vibrant and the team is always fun to watch!​
