Great buffet breakfast features fruits, juices and a wide selection of cheeses, hams and eggs. Everything here is made of local, high-quality ingredients so you won't be disappointed. Dinner is á la cárte but also delicious, i asked for chicken and pea salad, and it's something to remember.

Nothing to comment really, the food was perfect, the staff friendly and the prices good. Loved the atmosphere and the decoration of the restaurant. A Hamburg must.

Went with my wife on a Saturday night. Somehow my booking was lost but eventhough the restaurant was full, the manager fixed a window table for us. We ordered the 5-course wine menu and it was staggering! Great taste and fantastic service by the staff.

Reservation through Tripadvisor worked perfectly. Reception and service very polite and forthcoming. Food excellent. As the kitchen is "open" to the dining room, it can sometimes feel a bit noisy but on the other hand side its nice to see the chefs at work :-)

We checked out the Apples due to the recommendations on TripAdvisor. We ordered the five-course menu including wine for 59€ which definitely is a deal. The courses were good, the ingredients partly excellent. We liked the combination of five wines escalating with the courses. We thought that nothing was really mind-blowing (or tongue-twisting), in fact we missed the love or... More

I know this is the no rated restaurant in Hamburg but my opinion would be "very good but not great" Ate here with several business colleagues recently and the Goats Cheese starter was excellent. I then shared a Chateaubriand steak with one colleague and it was pretty good but really just like a nice Fillet Steak. Chateaubriand should be more... More

Wonderful food, carefully prepared. The beef was tender, the ravioi was heavenly and don't even get me started on the desserts!

Food and service could not be faulted but it comes at a price. Sometimes hotel restaurants have no character, but this is not the case with Apples (I asked why the name but the waitress did not really know). I liked the idea of a limited menu but there is still a choice of fish, meat or vegetarian for diners.... More

I was able to have chestnut ravioli - a german cuisine here! I appreciate having food that you don't have 'round the world' served when I am visiting foreign spots!
