Gallo Nero Hamburg in Hamburg

Very nice Italian restaurant. Unfortunately, it was a bit too crowded for the waitress this time (or she had too many tables).

Really nice restaurant and ambiance, the food quality is not as high as the price

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Gallo Nero in Hamburg, and I was completely thrilled! Even the appetizers were an absolute delight – fresh, creative, and full of flavor. The main courses also completely won me over: perfectly prepared, beautifully presented, and simply delicious. I was particularly impressed by the staff: incredibly friendly, attentive, yet unobtrusive. You immediately feel welcome and well looked after. In summer, the terrace is a real highlight. I really enjoyed my evening outside – the ambiance is beautiful, the atmosphere relaxed, and you can enjoy your meal in peace. Overall, it was a perfect experience for me: excellent food, first-class service, and a beautiful ambiance. I will definitely be back and can recommend Gallo Nero to anyone who appreciates good food and a relaxing evening in Hamburg!

Not recommended. We waited 1.5 hours for the starter. The antipasti that was served was mediocre at best, and that's putting it kindly. We received no feedback from the wait staff. We canceled the main courses. The entire evening offered no reason to return.

Very, very delicious! I haven't had such good pasta in a long time! We'll definitely be back!

The food is good, the service unacceptable.

Overpriced food and mediocre service.

Not a service I would call “wow.” The food was not exceptional either – nothing that left a lasting impression. Suddenly, a staff member came over and asked how many more people were coming. We said one more, and right away they separated the table next to us and made it a separate one. When we asked where our friend would sit, they told us “at the very end of the table.” We explained that the table already had two full settings and there wasn’t enough room for another person. The response we got was: “What’s the problem? We always do this.” This is simply unacceptable. However, I would like to thank the waitress who served us. She was very attentive and we were happy with her service.

I've been a regular guest with my father for years, and the food has always been respectful and extremely good. When I was there with my girlfriend, we were the only guests and had to wait 15 minutes for the menu, and the waiter was anything but friendly. A complete disappointment. Treating guests based on their age and appearance is anything but professional. My conclusion: look either conservative or older, otherwise you might not have a good time.

The Italian restaurant is beautifully decorated with lots of attention to detail. The atmosphere is fantastic. Delicious, fresh food. The dessert was amazing. 😊

Very friendly and excellent food, but only 4 stars because the five of us racked up a nearly four-figure bill, and we tried to buy a bottle of grappa, which we started and drank halfway through, but were billed at full restaurant price of €300. That wouldn't happen to us at the Italian restaurants in our neighborhood.

Incredibly unfriendly service. The waitresses don't even look at you or smile. Tables are already set and dusty... Now I understand why I was advised against this place and why there are so many negative reviews! There are very tasty and clean Italian restaurants nearby where the staff are knowledgeable.

Unfortunately, the waitresses aren't trained in service. No smiles, no eye contact, no comfortable atmosphere. If I want a nice meal, it certainly isn't here.

The salt-crusted sea bass is sensationally tender, and in the sunshine on the terrace, it tastes twice as delicious with a glass of Grillo. I'd go back anytime, and thank you for your attentive service.

Very attentive service. The mixed starter was "plain" and nothing special, and at €28.50, it was overpriced. For that price, I would have at least expected free bread, but that also costs €3.50. Mineral water costs €9.80 and a glass of red wine costs €14.50 (a bottle of which is available to take away for €17.00) show that people in Winterhude are willing to pay any price. Conclusion: Good food, friendly service, but too expensive.

It looks better than it is. Following is the absolute truth and the end is important which I am not sorry to admit. The Ambiente is charming and has its own Charakter. The food took 40 minutes until ready, is partly heavily overpriced and actually bad. The employees were very friendly but the food gave us food poisoning. Whe ate pizza Neapolitana and truffle pasta. The pizza was incredibly over salted ( although I know it has to be salty and that’s what I like about pizza neapolitana, but this was as if one gave me a spoon full of salt to chew on). But the real issue was the truffle pasta. The taste was mostly watery and under salted. The sauce was thin and not creamy. There was a cup of cheese which was okay to nice. The truffle maybe would have been good, but the overall dish made it incredibly flat. Just imagine a tasteless watery pasta with truffle?! It tasted as straight out of the watery garbage. I am sorry but it is insane, because we paid 44€ only for the pasta which caused vomiting all night. This dish has a price tag on which writes -> daily price, but then comes at a whopping double price compared to all pizzas. If at least it would have delicious or at least didn’t come with a full sleepless night of vomit. Gracias but no.

We visited Gallo Nero for the first time. Reservations are essential. The food was absolutely excellent. We had Saltimbocca alla Romana and Pizza Arugula. The portions were generous. The tiramisu was delicious. The service was always attentive and quick. The prices are high, but quite reasonable for the location and quality. Overall, a great experience. We'd be happy to return.

Great food quality. The garden is outstanding. Thank you Nina for the great and kind service.

Super friendly waiter and amazing, authentic Italian food! ☺️ The location is truly fantastic, and you're very private. The truffle pasta, in particular, is fantastic!

Definitely worth recommending. We've been to Spaccaforno several times before, and now we're finally at your Gallo Nero. We weren't disappointed; it's a bit more expensive, but we'll still recommend it to everyone. The mint sorbet is also an insider tip, probably known to some thanks to the YouTuber "Holle." The only downside, in my opinion, was the somewhat slow service; it could have been a bit faster, as the place was pretty empty.

Incredible food and atmosphere. The homemade pasta is a must! The meat was incredible too!

The food there was okay, but as soon as I mentioned I didn't drink alcohol, I was treated very condescendingly. Ordering a Coke Zero didn't go down well. The waiters were grumpy and bad-tempered from the start. My drink choice definitely didn't improve things. I can't recommend this restaurant. Average Italian with poor service. 3/10

Very original and friendly. The food was also very good. Our dog even got a bone from the chef. Thank you!

Unfortunately, the service is really not recommended. Maybe it was a bad day, but the manager was really unfriendly today. Waited 15 minutes for a beer.

Actually, it's my absolute favorite Italian restaurant. But the service is getting worse and worse. Admittedly, it's always busy, but when drinks take an hour to arrive and hardly anyone else stops by without asking, that's not acceptable given the rather high prices. The food itself is actually always good to very good.

The best Italian restaurant in Hamburg! They serve authentic, good Italian food here, which may come at a price, but is 100% worth it. The ingredients are high-quality and fresh, and the wines are amazing! We love coming here again and again!

Probably one of the best Italian restaurants in Hamburg. Their prices are in the higher range but for that the quality of the food is amazing. We tried their pasta and tiramisu. Will definitely come back.

It was better than the Italian food I had in Milan last week. I sat at an outdoor table and had to wait a bit because there were so many people, but the server was very friendly. If the weather is good, the atmosphere is great. The white ragu pasta was especially delicious, and for dessert, you should definitely try the mint sorbet drizzled with olive oil.

Italy is alive, and right here, cozy and cheerful, typical of the country. As the owner Corrado Falco says: A little piece of home, a little piece of Sicily. In the elegant Winterhude near the Outer Alster Lake, a whole world of Italian hospitality welcomes you. Naturally, they are proud of their achievements; this is earned through consistent quality. The sea bass in a salt crust or the grilled beef fillet are top-notch. We particularly enjoy the four-course surprise menu, which represents a beautiful cross-section of Gallo Nero's cuisine. The pizza with potatoes and truffles is a dream, and if they offer fresh octopus in tomato sauce, you absolutely have to dig in; the taste is excellent. If you're lucky, they might also serve veal cheeks or the very fine yellowfin tuna; days like these make a stay at Gallo Nero an experience. They consciously embrace the fresh, high-quality, creative Mediterranean cuisine. What characterizes Gallo Nero's cuisine is the high quality and consistency with which the dishes are prepared. Naturally, for this reason, the menu is kept small, and guests are informed daily about special dishes. We're just talking about veal cheeks! At Gallo Nero, high-quality Fassona beef is used; these are among the finest cattle in the world. Anyone who tries this meat will be amazed by its tenderness and flavor. The service is very good, if not perfect, and very knowledgeable. They know the menu as well as the wine list, which means they provide excellent advice. For us, it's now a real experience to see the wines from Mount Aetna, which Seniore Falco imports himself. Thanks to detailed advice and, of course, tastings, most of our rosé wines come from this region. Those who like it can enjoy the variety of three walk-in wine cabinets and their wealth of selection and regions. In summer, you can enjoy Bella Italia on the covered terraces.

Overall, we were very disappointed with the restaurant. First, the positives – the food tasted good, arrived on time, and the owner seems to understand the art of service and how to interact with guests. He seems very personable and attentive. The ambiance is also pleasant; for cooler days, there are even individual heaters. Thanks to its clients, the place is also a wonderful place to start social studies; at times, it's quite entertaining. Unfortunately, we didn't find the older gentleman serving us particularly friendly. It began with an isolated greeting, exclusively for my partner. The initial order unfortunately didn't lead to what we actually wanted, but it didn't matter. It was still tasty, but still not nice for the price range. The welcome from the kitchen was unfortunately placed on the table without a word, and when we asked what was tasty, the serious answer was "I don't know exactly right now" – unfortunately, that's not acceptable. You can't and don't have to know everything, and that's perfectly fine, but then the next step might be to find out more and provide the information later. Overall, the price-performance ratio was not right for us and we didn't feel like coming back.

If you’re Italian (like I am) please do not come here. Normal quality of the food; 20€ two bottles of water, 9€ for the bread (that in Italy is normally included in service charge) and last but not least 40€ two glasses of wine. The waiter insisted and asks us for wine and bread … now I understand why. Good ambient but too expensive for what it is, completely out of the world.

Excellent Italian restaurant with an excellent (albeit pricey) wine list. Great pasta dishes and a very pleasant ambiance.

They're absolutely amazing. Perfect service, perfect dishes. Simply a lovely evening in a fantastic setting.

The service is terrible!!!!!! We are waiting for food with the family for 1 hour. I waited for a glass of water for 30 minutes🤬 and when I asked the staff to hurry up, they ignored me. The food, however, was only ok.

We were here for the first time today... amazing... great service... fantastic food... vitello tonnato and steak tartare for starters, sea bass in a salt crust and saltimbocca for the main course... Tiramisu and espresso to finish... our waiter, Roberto, was always present, but never intrusive... great ambiance in the middle of Hamburg... a piece of Italy in the middle of the city... a place where you can relax and enjoy.

I had dinner alone at "Gallo Nero" this evening. It was a very relaxing evening for me on the terrace. The team is very warm and attentive! I ordered the bread with a greeting from the kitchen, the tomato tartar with burrata and basil, and an arrabiata. Everything was so aromatic, fresh, and delicious! I would have loved to order dessert, but I'll have to save that for next time - I was unfortunately too full. The desserts were very well received by other guests, though! There is a great selection of wines and even some non-alcoholic aperitifs. My phone was charging while I ate, so unfortunately there are no photos of the food. But for me, it was all the more a relaxing dinner. I will be happy to come back when I'm in Hamburg.

Great restaurant, great staff and delicious food.

I went to Gallo Nero with my girlfriend for my birthday and was unfortunately disappointed. Despite the starter, main course, and dessert, we weren't satisfied. We had to wait about 15 minutes each for dessert and the bill – the waitress had simply forgotten about us. I paid €44 for my truffle pasta, which I don't think is justified given the small portion. Overall, it wasn't good value for money.

Nice atmosphere, delicious food, good service

A true institution in Hamburg. Magnificent and refined Italian cuisine. Authentic culinary delights await discovery. Impeccable service and high-quality food and drinks make Gallo Nero a true insider tip in Hamburg.

Very good food. Reasonably priced (high), but the quantity was small. Unfortunately, the service wasn't up to par for us. We repeatedly felt uncomfortable, for example, when ordering bread, etc.

Never again!!! A friend and I were planning to spend a pleasant evening dining at a nice restaurant. But that plan didn't work out. After just a few seconds, I noticed that the person at the next table was giving us unpleasant looks. The gentleman, Thomas—as it turned out later—was the one we pointed out, saying we wished not to be stared at like that. He acted as if he couldn't help his behavior, looked away embarrassed, and muttered that he was just a beast. This process repeated itself several times until we went over to his table to more forcefully tell the not-so-nice gentleman what we thought. When his companions arrived, we were relieved, as we assumed this disgusting and presumptuous behavior was over—wrong thought. To the obvious discomfort of his friends, Thomas continued, continuing to stare at us at short intervals. When we stood up again and other guests noticed that we were visibly dissatisfied with this behavior, the staff asked us not to cause any trouble. Thomas, however, was not asked to stop staring... They were familiar with this behavior from regular customers, but there was nothing they could do. We didn't want to accept it and called the owner of the restaurant. He patted my girlfriend's hand to calm her down and asked her not to make a fuss about it. Consequences would be taken in the future. We were asked to move for today, please. What a nerve. I didn't touch the dessert wine as an "apology" – what a disgrace! This restaurant is therefore not suitable for women. You won't be taken seriously here!

The food was excellent in both quantity and quality. Service was friendly and courteous. Ambience: If you like Italian, you'll definitely get your money's worth here.

Robbers! We waited over an hour and were told "just a few more minutes," and then they offered/forced us to buy an appetizer, which was later billed for €35 per person. We won't be back! The food is good, but this scam ruins your mood and your stomach afterward...

Highly recommended. We reserved one of the private rooms and went there with our young daughter. The service was very good, although not always available, probably due to the long walk to the private room. The ambiance is very nice, as is the decor. There's a lack of space here, which is why wine is stored everywhere. So feel free to buy a bottle to take home. The food was high quality and very tasty. However, I expected more from the truffle pasta. The mint sorbet alone is worth the visit! It's truly the best I've ever eaten. All in all, it was a great visit, and we'll be back.

Exceptionally good and friendly service, fantastic antipasti. For my main course, I had monkfish – authentic Italian and expertly prepared.

Simply incredible! We had such a great evening and the food - 11/10 🤌🏼😋😋😋😋

What an amazing Italian place in the heart of Hamburg! The cozy atmosphere combined with pure Italian dishes and an impressive selection of wines. One of the best meals we had

Very classy Italian restaurant with a great atmosphere and almost 500 different wines.

A bit expensive, but justified for the quality, service and ambience.

Our daughter reserved the restaurant based on a recommendation. Since my wife and I were traveling with our children at Easter, we had a good time. Something else is cheap but overall it was still worth the price. Attentive, trained staff, an equally attentive boss, nice atmosphere. The seating wasn't quite ideal as it was quite drafty during periods of air exchange. Our suggestion was responded to quickly. All in all, exceptional and recommended! I will recommend the restaurant.

I was at Gallo Nero today to book a table for 2 people. What a nice restaurant with very nice staff. Then we went next door and bought a bottle of olive oil and cake. I received a very warm welcome and great advice. I'm really looking forward to the food. Today was the day. We had a nice table by the window. The restaurant is decorated with love. The starter, main course and dessert were the best I have ever eaten. There is passion everywhere. Thank you for the lovely evening and thank you for the bread. Grazie Mille to Nina, dad and the team. Torsten

It was a birthday present for me from my boyfriend and I was so thrilled, it was just mega. The food was excellent and the service was super friendly and attentive. Nina and her father are awesome, so sweet and friendly, you guys are great. Thanks to Holle for recommending the restaurant to us. 👍👍 Many thanks to Nina, you are great, the evening was simply unforgettable for me. Lgpeedi

Sovereign class... with appropriate tariff..

Mille grazie!!!!! Great!!! Nina, thank you! Thank you very much for the very spontaneous, flexible reservation with Antonia on the phone, who was very personable and our very attentive waiter Alessandro!! Very authentic and fabulous! Gladly again! A presto! 😘

The service was extremely disappointing and the quality and portion of the food was disproportionate to the prices, neither the taste nor the freshness were convincing As I said, price-performance is absolutely not justified. I would not recommend it

I recently dined at Gallo Nero with friends for the third time. As is often the case, I had the tomato tartare first. And as always, it was extremely tasty and aromatic. The main course was served with Ragout Bianco and a greeting from the kitchen. My absolute insider tip for all newbies is the mint sorbet. a taste sensation that you have never had before. Highly recommended

We had reserved and still had to wait 20 minutes for the table. The meal also took quite a long time, so you should take your time. The food was very good, the service too. The Tiramisu is without a café

Sicherlich ein stilvolles Restaurant mit tollem Ambiente, durchaus sehr gute Küche. 35,00 EUR pro Person für eine sehr übersichtlichen gemischten Vorspeisen-Teller ist ein mehr als kräftiger Preis, obendrauf von 3,50 EUR / Person für Coperto zu berechnen, ist grenzwertig. Bei Weinempfehlungen unbedingt vor der Bestellung den Glas- bzw. Flaschenpreis erfragen, wenn Sie beim Bezahlen keine Überraschung erleben wollen. Ich bin sehr gerne bereit, für ein tolles Essen in schöner Atmosphäre in die Tasche zu greifen, aber die Grenze zur "Abzocke" ist schnell überschritten.

Great service and great food. We had a great evening.

We were there in a larger group on a Friday and were very disappointed. The ambience is quite nice but the service was friendly but very inattentive and overwhelmed. We waited a long time for the order to be taken, including for the drinks. The food was good but not outstanding. Finally, the service made it clear that individual payments were not possible. We received a collective bill for the 12 people, which meant we had to pool our cash instead of paying by card. Yes, it was very busy to begin with, but a restaurant with this reputation should be able to handle it better.

Preferably zero stars. Five waiters for around 20 guests and after 20 minutes we didn't even get a menu. I've never experienced anything like that. underground really. Then they left again.

The food was exceptionally good. The location is beautiful. The service was very friendly. However, on the day we were there we had the impression that we had been forgotten a few times. But we will definitely come back.

Unfortunately nothing special. There are many better alternatives for the price. The food came relatively late and the quality and taste were not convincing. Unfortunately not recommended.

Food of the highest level and quality... nothing more needs to be said. You should have experienced it.

The ambience is beautiful. Good food & good service. Fine restaurant with lots of regular customers from Winderhude.

Catastrophic! We made a reservation and had to wait 40 minutes. The table we got was in the very last corner and we had to wait another 15 minutes for the menu. The two Prosecco that we got at the counter to bridge the waiting time were charged to us after we decided to end the evening without eating or drinking anything. Absolutely disappointing, especially since no one felt responsible or apologized. 0/5 stars!

Addendum from March 31st: Credibility is decreasing more and more. I uploaded the invoice as a picture where you can see the time: 7:53 p.m.!! The food was excellent and we all enjoyed it very much. Unfortunately the front door was open the whole time, which made it very cold in the restaurant - that spoiled the atmosphere a bit. There was also a problem with the bill: We ordered 3 glasses of red wine and 2 glasses of white wine, but later we were charged 2 whole bottles of €53 each, which was incorrect. Bread was listed on the total bill as €17.50, which we found to be overpriced. It would be interesting to know what happened to the remaining contents of the wine bottles?! What further disappointed us was the limited time. After 1 hour and 45 minutes our table was given away again, so we had no opportunity to order desserts or anything similar.

Das Essen war ausgezeichnet und hat uns allen sehr gut geschmeckt. Leider war die Eingangstür die ganze Zeit offen, wodurch es im Lokal sehr kalt war – das hat die Atmosphäre etwas getrübt. Zudem gab es bei der Rechnung ein Problem: Wir haben 3 Gläser Rotwein und 2 Gläser Weißwein bestellt, aber später wurden uns 2 ganze Flaschen á 53€ berechnet, was nicht korrekt war. Brot wurde auf der Gesamtrechnung mit 17,50 € aufgeführt, was wir als überteuert empfanden. Interessant wäre es zu wissen , was mit dem restlichen Inhalt der Weinflaschen geschehen ist?! Was uns zusätzlich enttäuscht hat, war die begrenzte Zeit. Nach 1 Stunde und 45 Minuten wurde unser Tisch wieder vergeben, sodass wir keine Möglichkeit hatten, eventuell noch Nachspeisen oder ähnliches zu bestellen.

Unfortunately, the service was quite unfriendly, and we waited 45 minutes for a menu to be brought to us. The food itself was good, but when I asked if the ravioli would fill you up (if you were really hungry), I was told yes – and in the end, there were three ravioli on my plate. Given the prices and the recommendation, it was a bitter disappointment. Furthermore, other unfavorable factors and situations arose over the course of the evening, which is why I unfortunately cannot recommend this Italian restaurant.

Bislang mein Lieblings-Italiener in Hamburg. Essen große Klasse. Was allerdings die letzten zwei Male mit großen Gruppen (jeweils 8-10 Personen) passiert ist, geht so nicht. Als gemischten Vorspeisenteller kamen drei Gänge Vorspeisen. Parallel zu der Bestellung einer Magnumflasche Rotwein wurde noch mal schnell eine weitere Weißweinflasche geöffnet und eingebucht. Wir zahlen gerne für gutes Essen und guten Wein. Lassen uns aber ungern mit Dingen abziehen, die wir so gar nicht bestellt haben. Schade.

The best Italian restaurant in Hamburg

Absolutely recommended 😍 thank you for the lovely wedding day 🎉🇮🇹

First-class cuisine, but it's missing that certain something. Nobody in our group would have liked to order the same dish again. (We had different pasta dishes.) The price-performance ratio is derailed.

Highly recommended. Ambiance, service, food simply great. Simply furnished with a lot of love. Very friendly service. Food was really tasty. Always happy to visit Hamburg. A visit to Gallo Nero is of course part of it for us.🫶

Even though we made a reservation and we were called again on the phone the same day in the morning to ask whether we were actually coming in the evening and we confirmed this, we had to wait 1 (!!!) hour for our table. There was no more space at the bar so we had to wait outside when the temperature was 2 degrees until we finally got our reserved table. Since we were a large group (10 people) we would have accepted a 30 minute wait, an hour outside in the cold is really an absolute disgrace!!! We had to ask several times what was wrong with our table. It really doesn't work! The food was tasty but not a highlight. The atmosphere is nice but not particularly fancy. It was ok but wouldn't recommend it and wouldn't come again.

Was a birthday dinner, the table was very nicely decorated, we were given a nice table and the food was very nice

Yesterday was an all-round perfect evening, food was delicious as always, yesterday I baked the sea bass in a salt crust. Still my absolute favorite is the truffle pasta. The staff is friendly and warm, you immediately feel at home with your hosts, the restaurant is warm and inviting. Only the background noise when the restaurant is full can be a bit annoying, but it doesn't make the all-round perfect evening any less beautiful. Every time I'm in Hamburg, this restaurant is worth a visit. Edit. Today I had my fourth visit to Galo Nero, the food was again super tasty and really better than average Italian restaurants. Unfortunately, the service today was not very attentive despite the very low number of guests. Unfortunately, I don't know why that was, it definitely wasn't like that the last few times. We were only in Hamburg for one day but definitely wanted to eat at Galo Nero again before we went back home. Unfortunately we're not going home today with a bad finish. My personal feeling is perhaps my external one, as I have a lot of tattoos and was wearing a cap, so I didn't correspond to the average guest today at lunchtime and of course I'm more noticeable in casual clothing than if I came in the evening in a shirt. Of course I can't confirm that, but that's my feeling after today's visit. Even a tip of 40 euros, which was almost 25% of the bill as a gesture of appreciation, was only waved away. A friendly thank you would have been enough at this point. We will definitely come back on our next visit to Hamburg and hope that it was just a bad day. Please do not see this review as an attack but as a criticism of today's service. The best thing about the last visits for us was the warm and loving welcome, farewell and hospitality, you felt like you were at home with your host. Best regards

No. Service “sees” nothing. Guests have to ask for everything themselves. Both in terms of food and drinks. I just wanted to get out of there. The hype is absolutely unfounded. The prices are not justified!

On Thursday evening we celebrated my partner's birthday at Gallo Nero and had an unforgettable evening. The service was not only attentive and friendly, but also warm and professional - we felt completely at home. The real highlight, however, was the food! We both ordered pasta and agreed: we've never had pasta this good. The fresh bread and the heavenly dessert were also a delight. Of course quality has its price, but here it is absolutely justified. We'll definitely be back!

GOOD MORNING THAT WAS NOTHING WAY TOO MUCH HYPE FOR NOTHING VERY Pity WELL ✔️ Don't know... Make your own experiences, I was so disappointed... At least now I have this off my LIST!

Please always pay attention to what you order (and what is actually served) and check the bill. Bread is charged for the entire table, even though you only ordered bread once for a cheese plate (for one person). It was charged six times Brit! If you order without a starter you will be treated very unfriendly. We had to ask several times for wine or beer orders.

Como grupo local de Hamburgo, conocemos la reputación de Gallo Nero. La comida está bien, el servicio lento y no muy atento si no pretendes dejar una fortuna allí. Son conocidos por intentar engañarte con todos los trucos. De ahí que nos reímos toda la cena sobre qué truco hacen esta vez. Es famoso por cobrarte x veces el precio por el vino de casa que “ya no tenían” ; - ) ) ) de ahí que te cobren 22 Euros el glas, te cobren x veces por el pan que no querías y no comías (24 Euros por el pan seco sin aceite) y siempre finjan que no tienen lo que quieres sino “algo parecido” que resulta 6 veces el precio. Es una broma común en Hamburgo y todos desde aquí ya lo saben. Así que teníamos curiosidad por lo que viene esta vez y no defraudaron: Uno de los amigos pidió un último plato para sí mismo, pero 5 personas / porciones se cobraron - aunque nadie más comió del plato (para 1 persona). Nos explicaron que esa es la regla: si una persona pide un plato, a todos se les cobra una porción. Chapeau! No lo vimos venir...

We went there with very high expectations and also found the food delicious. But not surprising. That's why there are 4 stars. The service was also a bit confused, but super friendly! You can't complain. Typical Italian cuisine, good and sometimes different dishes. The atmosphere was super nice. Really comfortable. We sat outside and when the weather was nice, I can only recommend it. Because of the hedge we felt isolated from the hustle and bustle of the streets.

It was our first time here and we really liked it: service was nice, attentive, fast! The food was excellent!!!! Starter of tomato tartare with burrata, main course of sea bream - both simply delicious!!!! Thank you for a successful evening 🙏🏻🤩

Very good food, a small starter beforehand (free), very good sourdough bread with oil and salt. For the main course I had the ragout, which is also highly recommended. Everyone will find what they are looking for here, as Gallo Nero also works very closely with the pizza shop Spaccaforno next door and therefore also offers Neapolitan pizza. Unfortunately, the staff is quite pushy, we were asked 3 times within less than 5 minutes if we wanted a bottle of water, and on the 4th time we agreed (the staff probably achieved their goal). They couldn't explain to me what the difference was between the light ragout and the normal ragout. Anyway, it's quite difficult to communicate when the waiters hardly speak any German. Of course, that makes it nice and authentic when only Italian-speaking people work there, but it also comes with hurdles. The location is of course very nice but very, very difficult to reach by car, as there is hardly any parking space and a lot of traffic. Unfortunately, taking the train isn't ideal either, but it could be worse.

Essen überbewertet, dem Preis nicht angemessen. Der Service (bis auf 2 Ausbahmen) unfreundlich, überheblich und unaufmerksam. Dass "Brot" mit 3,50 € pro Person überraschend auf der Rechnung steht, ist gewöhnungsbedürftig. Wir kommen NICHT wieder.

Food overrated, not appropriate for the price. Service (with two exceptions) unfriendly, inattentive and arrogant. The fact that bread is surprisingly charged at €3.50 per person takes some getting used to. We are NOT going there again.

Wir kommen nicht aus Hamburg, sind aber mehrfach im Jahr in der Stadt. Bisher hatten wir kein gutes italienisches Restaurant finden können. Unser Hotel hatte uns nun dieses Restaurant empfohlen und das war eine ganz wunderbare Empfehlung. Das Ambiente ist toll. Es ist verwinkelt, wohnlich und vollgestopft mit Weinflaschen. Wir mögen das... Der Service, der Wein und das Essen waren super! Wir werden bestimmt wiederkommen, wenn wir in der Stadt sind. Danke für diesen schönen Abend!

The service was nice and charming. However, we waited a long time several times for our drinks - which were extremely overpriced. They only came after the food. The food was ok, but definitely not appropriate for the price. The risotto from the daily menu was also quite unsightly, so a little decoration or something similar would have helped.

Unreserved recommendation. We were there for the first time and we were thrilled. The highest quality paired with warm, personal service in a family atmosphere. Brilliant!

We had a wonderful evening and the food was delicious. Thank you. We'll definitely come back. The boss is super nice.

Unbeliavable experience for a date night. The servers were so kind and they knew exactly what we wanted and even already split dishes that we wanted to share. Such an amazing experience and they have such a great eye for service! 10/10 would go again

Great food and great service, especially thanks to Roberto for the great evening!

We ate at Gallo Nero for the first time on a special occasion. The service was nice and attentive. The appetizer platter was crappy. The pasta for 36€ unfortunately after 4 forks - finita (but tasty). For a bit of bread, there was supposed to be focaccia and vinegar - which unfortunately didn't happen, so the two of us paid €7. Nicely decorated dessert. The taste experience was solid, but unfortunately the whole thing was far too overpriced.

The best Italian in town!! The food and service were A1. Thank you very much for the great evening!

Absolutely recommended! The food is of first class quality and the service is top. Everything is just right here 👏👏

The staff wasn't any less friendly than expected

All in all a very disappointing experience. My brother wanted to celebrate his birthday and I recommended Gallo Nero to him. Unfortunately, a total mistake. But first of all, the bread, oil and pasta with prawns were good. The rest, especially the service, was really disappointing. The pizza tasted and smelled burnt. Despite complaints, we paid the full price. They could have accommodated us here, but even then we didn't say anything and were calm. Now why we are really disappointed: The service! We had reserved a table and when we arrived we were told we had to wait or go somewhere else. But other guests were greeted first and their hands were shaken. But I suspect that when it comes to people with a migrant background, you can save on being friendly. I don't want to accuse anyone of anything, but it's totally strange that German guests are treated so well and we aren't even said hello. But the absolute highlight: we got the wrong dish twice and politely asked that it be corrected in the bill. Then we were asked: what do you want to do now? I'll tell you what I can do, I have the incident on camera because I'm a food blogger. I'm welcome to post this on TikTok and Ig and then you'll see what I can do. I understand when you're stressed, but obviously telling the guest that you were wrong and then provoking them is an absolute no-go. I even wanted to make a free video, but that would... Loading is now more likely to cause harm. Unfortunately, Holle promoted the wrong ones. Thank you very much for nothing. Of course we didn't give a tip and were treated like dirt. If you don't believe me you can send me a DM and get the video footage or maybe see it on tiktok soon

Food was poor. Some things were good but the pizza tasted burnt. A nonsense at such prices. But the service is by far the rudest I've ever seen. Went there with a few friends to celebrate a birthday, but the service there was disastrous. Making mistakes and then insulting each other is not an option. You gave out the dishes incorrectly and want us to pay the other price? Yes, no wonder why Michelin isn't coming back. We paid full price for food and service but when it comes to service we didn't get the service. Far from it. This goes to the gentleman with the gray hair and the glasses: it was your mistake and if you seriously ask us what we want to do, then I understand the criticism from other people. Absolute disappointment. Simply overrated. But high prices demand no hello and no goodbye. Was that because we look different than the German standard? Or because we didn't want to tip for this poor service? In any case we won't be coming back
