Zur Flottbeker Schmiede — Restaurant in Hamburg

We were taken to this wonderful establishment by friends who live in Hamburg. Wow. What a great find! This is a charming restaurant with a cosy and inviting atmosphere. A converted blacksmith building with old world decor and tons of charm - situated in a local neighborhood. The food is Portuguese Tapas style with many choices. Fantastic, service and attentive owners to make sure your experience is first rate.

The tastes were amazing. Recommend the chicken, lamb chops and meatballs. All the food was fantastic - and you will not go wrong with anything you order. But for simple dishes, the flavors and perfection of these three stood out.

There are no English menus here. Which tells you it’s an off the grid location not frequented by tourists. But the staff is very helpful and will explain everything to you. Don’t be shy to try this restaurant if you want Tapas in a wonderful atmosphere. You won’t be disappointed. But make a reservation. The locals also know about the quality of this restaurant and it will likely be very busy at prime...

This is not a typical Michelin gourmet restaurant. We had dinner at this restaurant, which is small and has a very local and authentic atmosphere. All the dishes were tasty but quite simple.

The dishes we ordered: • Prosciutto – tasty but ordinary. • Fried peppers – tasty but nothing special. • Bruschetta with burrata cheese and tomatoes – by far the best dish. Very tasty and unique. • Shrimp & chips – again, tasty but ordinary, though the sauce was excellent. • Entrecôte steak – very tasty. • Asparagus – the asparagus itself was good, but the sauce felt basic, like a mix of ketchup and mayonnaise. • Dessert – crème brûlée – tasty, but not remarkable.

The price was around €75 per person, excluding drinks – an average value for money.

Bottom line: I recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for tasty food but not the gourmet experience expected from a...

We had a lovely visit. The interior is charming and the service was lovely. We especially liked the Datteln im Speck, Gratinierter Ziegenkäse mit Honig, Lachsfilet mit Zitronenbuttersauce, the meatballs, and the Kabeljau (a special). The eggplant, spinach, and zucchini were good, as were the brûlée and chocolate cake. The calamari was cooked perfectly, but somewhat bland. I will...
