About the restaurant

Anständig essen auf St. Pauli
Hamburger Küche, norddeutsche Kost
Mittenmang, an Deutschlands prominentester Straße, da liegt das Reep. Aufgetischt werden bei uns die liebsten Klassiker der Hamburger Küche, feine Hausmannskost aus dem Norden – und unsere Stadt wäre nicht das Tor zur Welt, würden wir nicht immer mal wieder einen beherzten Blick über den hanseatischen Tellerrand werfen.

Wonderful restaurant. Our server made it even more so - he was funny and entertaining but also helped us with our wine selections and in general was excellent! The food was perfectly proportioned - and they actually brought fresh bread to our table with olive oil too!

We had a wonderful view of the Elbe with all the excitement of watching the many and varied boats and ships going by against the backdrop of the working port - fascinating. The food was excellent. They did a very good version of the local speciality of Labskaus and my plaice with little Busum shrimps and parsley potatoes was beautifully cooked and presented. The service was friendly and efficient. All in all a great evening.

Die Drei aus dem Quellental In einem heimeligem Fachwerkhäuschen im Grünen mit einem großzügigen, zauberhaften Garten befindet sich das Quellental. Hier bewirten Nils Hopfgarten, André Bode und Patrick Server ihre vielen Stammgäste und jene, die das Quellental neu für sich entdecken. Das WIR wird gross geschrieben und so ist in kürzester Zeit ein familiäres Team zusammengewachsen, dass seine Gäste im gemütlichen „Wohnzimmer von Nienstedten“ mit viel Liebe bekocht und zum Verweilen einlädt. Das Quellental ist allen eine Herzensangelegenheit und so griffen Christoph Lamers und Nils Hopfgarten auch begeistert zu, als sich ihnen diese Chance bot.
