Got there around 7pm on a Monday and it was really packed. I was eating my myself and asked the hostess where to sit- she said I could sit at smallish table with two other German lads. At first, I thought, how can I do that? Wouldn't they mind? But then I had remembered that communal style seating is quite common in Germany, so it was quite alright. It also was quite rainy, but that didn't stop people from coming in and queuing up to eat. My German was quite rusty, so I didn't know what half the things were on the menu (German only). So I opted for the Fischmix which a lot of people seemed to have ordered and enjoyed both on Yelp and TripAdvisor. The Fischmix, which comes with 5 different types of fish including tilapia and salmon, was really good and tasty (also a little salty- as expected as mentioned by previous reviewers), but I enjoyed the flavors and the dipping sauces to add to the fish. The Fischmix comes with a side of sautéed vegetables, which I ate with each bite of fish with some of the dipping sauce. Also, each fish entree comes with a salad, bread that's topped with pesto, and potatoes (which I chose the "chips" option). Definitely a hearty meal and well worth the €11.90 for my Fischmix entree. I'd definitely want to come back here again sometime on another trip to Hamburg and try all the other fish dishes. Hopefully next time I'll have more time and pop by Karofisch again soon!

What's good: 1) FREE bread and three sauces that were…read moredelicious 2) good choices of fish 3) crunchyness of the fish and chips What's not so good: 1) Cooked and fried with way too much oil that it's almost greasy. The vegetables are dripping in fat and the fish soup is 1/5 oil 2) the fish soup was disappointing but the fish was fresh 3) the portion sizes are smaller than expected. How is it compared to schabi? 1) Better in atmosphere and choices and their fish and chips and sauces + free bread 2) Worse in how it's grilled, freshness and too oily However both schabi and Karo are cheaper but both didn't convinced me in their taste and made of of their fish m chips.

I must say they were a bit expensive due to the location, i guess, being each thing around 4€, which is way too much for a Latte with 10% coffee and 90% milk. The cakes were ok but somehow didn't taste homemade. Also we were the youngest couple there and somehow I felt that the waitress didn't take us seriously. They payed lots of attention to the couples around us and asked if everything was ok and so on but to us they just brought the food and that was it. I'm also a customer and I deserve the same service you offer your other clients and not less just because of what we ordered or our age. That disappointed me a bit and made me even feel bad.

CASA FRANCO FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…read more I came here twice with the company I was working for. Since my boss always paid for everything. BUT I'M SURE IT'S REALLY EXPENSIVE :D I think if I'd know the prices, I would pretty much give it ZERO stars hahahah. kidding :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, what we always got was: HUGE SCAMPIES ROASTET IN OIL + ALCOHOL served in huge flames A PLATE WITH DIFFERENT FISH FILETS + a unique secret sauce made by Franco STEAK, small peaces of steak with different sauces. and more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Honestly I don't remember it all but I know you get a lot, and all the seafood you get are really really delicious. I remember I dropped the whole steak I picked it up and still ate it, that's how good it was. But I was drunk anyways haha. LOCATION: Very very small, I guess about 20 people max. It's great, because it gives you a nice familiar cozy atmosphere. If you have the money and wanna do yourself somethiing good. Come here.

For 27 euros you get a four-course meal complete with a flaming scallop starter, fish, more fish, and a delicious dessert. Mmm. The owner of the restaurant is fantastic. He's so attentive to his customers and makes a huge effort to entertain the entire restaurant. We got several free shots of alcohol and the entire restaurant toasts together. The atmosphere is cozy, festive, and lively. There was even a traditional guitar singer that serenaded us twice in the night. My favorite part of my four course meal was the parrot fish and the crème brûlée-like dessert. I'm not sure what it was, but it was GOOD. We also ordered a bottle of wine, which was 22 euros a bottle. I'd say the style of the food was Portuguese fusion. The fun part is that the chef decides what you will eat so you don't have to order your food. The fish that he served us was extremely fresh. I think this is a great place to go with some friends or to celebrate a special occasion like a birthday. At the end of the meal, the owner also gives the ladies a single rose. :) Four solid stars for the food, and 7 stars for the service. I'll most likely be back!

It was Saturday evening and dinner time. When we arrived all the tables were full. But then we simply asked a couple at a table for four Idee could join and they said yes! Lucky for us. Although there is enough staff running around you have to order at the counter - hmmm a bit annoying but what are you going to do. I ordered lobster for two but unfortunately for us they were sold out! I was very disappointed. They only had crayfish left. So I ordered that and some spider crab legs. Everything is weighed and they tell how much it will cost. They prepare everything and take it out of the shells for you. The arrangement on the plate isn't very pretty but this is also not a restaurant so it's fine. The pricing is pretty good and it's very fresh! We had a great time and chatted with the couple who's table we joined. We drank too much wine, ate too much and went home very happy!

The starter we had mixed beets and local fish together, topped with over-easy egg, with a side of pickled herring. It's something I've never had before and it was wonderful. The steamed turbo fish (a North Sea fish) main course may be a bit bland for some people but I do not like over seasoning fish particularly if they're fresh, and with the mustard quark and butter to go with it, it's perfect balance for my opinion. My companion had fried turbo fish and it's also some very well. Coming from expensive East Coast of America, this place is expensive but not beyond my comfort zone lol This place is right by the cruise/ferry port at St. Pauli area. It has a nice view too.
