"Great venue for local tastes. We arrived at the “Parliament” at 7pm and we were seated in a nice table having great views. Our waiter was taking care of us with a friendly but professional attitude. The crabensuppe was delicious. The rollade and the cold beef were a little below our expectations."

Emphasis on the traditional holstein kitchen, just like your mutter 😋 would have made it.
Good beers and wines. Reasonable pricing."

Restaurants in Hamburg
Snugly sited beneath vaulted ceilings in the cellar of the city's town hall, this elegant old pub turned restaurant and cocktail bar serves no-nonsense meat and seafood meals, including shrimp fresh from the North Sea, with a light touch of German nouvelle cuisine. Popular with local businesspeople during and after work, it's also a nice spot for a frothy beer and some Flammkuchen, Alsace's take on pizza, between traipsing around the nearby sights.
