Ume no Hana in Hamburg

Ein Konzert in der Große Freiheit 36 lockte mich nach Hamburg, eine Übernachtung hatte wir gebucht. Doch bevor es richtig losgeht, müssen wir uns noch ein wenig stärken. Das ist gar nicht so einfach denn meine Frau hat eine Glutenunverträglichkeit und meine Tochter isst nicht alles. Hier wurde sie im Vorfeld schon fündig, also liefen wir extra zu diesem Restaurant. Für die Mittagsmenüs waren wir etwas spät, doch auch die Standardpreise sind moderat. Dank der guten Kennzeichnungen in der Karte wurde meine Frau schnell fündig und bestellte wie ich COM CARI DO (leicht scharf). Wir mussten nicht lange warten und das Essen stand auf dem Tisch. Mit frischen Zutaten, gut abgeschmeckt und großzügigen Portionen waren wir nicht nur satt, sondern können das Essen nur empfehlen. Essen hätte 5 Punkte verdient, beim Ambiente ist noch Luft nach oben.

Kind advice: Please replace the toilet lids, it costs €10 :)

No card payment possible. Unfortunately, there is no excuse for this these days (other than tax evasion).

Super delicious ramen and udon! Fast service, great price and even better umami...🍜😍🍜

My gfs and my stomach have been hurting since we ate the ramen here. That has not happened once with countless ramens that we ate in Japan recently. On top of that when I gave the waiter 40€ to pay for ramen, he kept waiting and showing me the receipt. And when I said yes it is 33€ right, he says: Okay, but what about the tip? Our whole “service” exchange was “two ramen” and “thank you”, I am not sure why the staff would feel entitled to a tip. I would probably even leave 1-2€ on the table when leaving, but this was just really rude. I guess we are in the US?

The best Pho in town, with a super cozy open area, ideal for spring and summer. On cold days, don't forget to make a reservation, as everybody also wants to eat in Ume no Hana.

It was tasty but the service was incredibly unsympathetic

Hi! I of course didn't tried everything, but I had vegan nem (fruhlingsrollen) and they were really nice. It's really rare to find good once here in Germany. There is some other nice once in Hamburg, but again it's rare. During my last hollidays I did 5 Asian restaurant to get some and it was always industrial and not fresh. Here they are fresh, with good ingredients, nicely fried and taste nice. I could enjoy to javelin salad leaves and mit with, but honestly it's already great considering what we are used to here in Germany. Thanks!

Pay with cash only. I had a suuuper delicious dinner. Very simple and authentic, tasty and diverse vegan options, fast service and likable staff. I can recommend this place to anyone who likes asian food. Ps. don‘t forget the home made lemonade (my favourite: maracuya lemonade).

Solala is the food. But tables are all so sticky?

We went there for dinner and all ordered a different form of ramen. I had the spicy ramen and loved everything about it. I do think it should have been way spicier but the noodle texture, the vegetables, and the broth were exceptional. Hanoi Passion was all a very nice drink.

It was incredibly tasty and not expensive - 1 serving ≈ 15 €, they took the order right away and prepared it quickly, we didn’t regret coming here

Overall, everything tasted good. A bit grubby, sticky tables and cutlery. But that's probably the style. I find it unhygienic. It would make me feel better if I could have seen the kitchen :) Man pays the same as other Vietnamese... So thanks but probably not again 🙏🏽

Great fusion cuisine, always delicious.

Wir waren hier zum Mittagstisch und saßen auf der Terrasse, sehr urbane Atmosphäre. Service war nett. Vorspeisen gut. Hauptgerichte ok. Leider wollten wir dann auf Toilette gehen. So etwas widerliches haben wir noch nie gesehen. Sauberkeit und Hygiene sind hier Fremdworte. Das war unser letzter Besuch hier.

Great restaurant, very tasty food, great selection! Attention: little chance on the weekend without a reservation. But: Reservations were quick and easy to make by email. The restaurant is decorated in Asian style. The service is very friendly. The food didn't take long to arrive. Sticky rice with mango and coconut milk is highly recommended as a dessert because it's so delicious! The drink selection is awesome! Real Vietnamese coffee (cold or hot) - that's exactly how we drank it in Vietnam. Overall excellent! We would love to come back!

Everything is incredibly good. The food, service, and ambiance are masterpieces. Quality is paramount here, and the prices are totally fair. There's always room, and if you eat well, you'll even get a free shot.

What a delicious yellow curry in a small but very original restaurant! Absolute recommendation 👍🏻 I can't remember ever having such good Vietnamese food 😊😋

The food is awesome! The ingredients are super fresh and the quantities are generous. I had a crispy duck with lots of fresh vegetables and a coconut mango sauce. A dream and rarely eaten so perfectly seasoned. The restaurant may be small, but the service is super friendly with an authentic atmosphere. There is even a vegan menu with a lot of dishes!

Called in advance to reserve a table for two. The food was very good and there is an explicitly vegan menu (green pages) with a large selection. Gyoza, summer rolls, classic vegan ramen bowl were very tasty. Important: cash payment only, tips are expected… We would still recommend!

We were there last night and the food was outstanding. We enjoyed it so much and the small tables also gave us a fitting feeling. The service was super nice.

Very good food and fast service.

Unfortunately, I have to say that I didn't like the Tantanmen at all. I have eaten ramen in many restaurants and often cooked it myself, so I have a lot of comparisons. The other food from my friends was okay but nothing more. I thought the prices were quite high for what you get. I was really looking forward to going to the restaurant and the good Google reviews were very promising. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed after my visit to the restaurant.😞

Discovered by chance on the way back to my hotel. Small restaurant but I ate a delicious Phô there. However, come with cash.

Very good and inexpensive Japanese/Vietnamese restaurant in Altona. Only cash accepted (as of February 2025).

Ums no Hana is always popular because there are Vietnamese, Japanese and Thai dishes. There is a whole section on the menu for vegetarian and vegan dishes. All Pho dishes are very good! I can especially speak up for gluten-free options here! I find it a bit cramped inside but outside it is beautiful in summer and winter.

Delicious food, attentive service

Well, we actually like going here, the pho is really the best, it's all true, I never write a review but I hope the boss let us know that there was such a disgusting smell in the store today of dead mice, mice, piss, that's so unpleasant, everything goes away, you have to do something about it. Unfortunately, we won't be coming back for now, maybe something will change

Good Ramen and Vietnames dishes - they have a vs theme between phi and ramen and for mybtaste the pho won :)

The restaurant is extremely narrow and very loud. That's not comfortable. The Vietnamese dishes are ok, but I absolutely cannot recommend the Japanese cuisine here. The miso ramen had nothing to do with an authentic Japanese soup: watery, clear broth without miso flavor, far too few noodles, unseasoned, dry pork belly and vegetables and herbs that do not belong in Japanese cuisine.

Super delicious food. There is Vietnamese and Japanese cuisine and it tastes super delicious! Attention, you can only pay in cash.

Tables not made for tall people. The rest is great

Fried Pho. Hammer! Good store, good portion. Thanks

I love the food here. It always tastes excellent and authentic. But the service really leaves a lot to be desired. The waiters always give you the feeling that they are not in the mood. It all seems very listless and unfortunately you don't really feel welcome. Best to order to take away. Then you can enjoy the delicious food without feeling bad. If the food wasn't so delicious, the store wouldn't be able to treat customers like this for long.

That's awesome people!! My curry udon tasted simply fabulous. Homemade noodles are very cool!! I was also very pleased that the vegetables were very fresh. The cocktails were also very tasty, refined with fresh berries. It was a bit uncomfortable to sit outside, you sit on the stools. Nevertheless, it was so delicious that we completely forgot about it :) The staff is very nice, the food and drinks are served super quickly despite the higher number of visitors. Reservation is highly recommended. Without a reservation, around 30 of us waited outside.

It used to be good, now it's double the price, half the portions. impudence.

Authentically Asian, simply delicious and fresh!!!

There is the best food in the world here, super fast, super fresh and crunchy, my absolute favorite restaurant! 😊

Ate gyozas, ramen and udon. They were incredibly tasty. The service was quick and nice. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. As usual, it's tight, as it is in the ski jump. But absolutely worth a visit!

Trendy Vietnam restaurant at the moment. Food and service is good

Small but nice. Food was ok. Service super friendly. But seemed uncoordinated. Drinks only came after the meal, which was the wrong thing to start with.

Great. The concept of pho vs. ramen alone makes you want to go to the store. Had an excellent tonkotsu - every spoonful tasted different.

Super tasty food and very fast service. Food came after just 5 minutes. There is an explicitly vegan menu.

Very tasty appetizers and good ramen in large portions.

My favorite ramen shop! Always happy and always the vegan tantanmen! Unfortunately it has become more expensive but that is unlikely to last

Fantastic tan-tan soup and pho. But you have to try the peppermint coconut lassi. That was a first for me and I would go back just for that.

We really enjoyed the food, the service was very, very quick and friendly...the restaurant has extremely tight seating and it was quite stuffy. There is a nice outdoor area.

Food tastes good, especially the Tonkotsu Ramen! Service is always quick and friendly. It's a bit tight for tall people. In summer we also like to sit outside. We like to come back every time.

Stopped here as part of a culinary city tour. Staff was friendly. Got a summer roll with vegetables and chicken. Role was some path. Mango lassi very tasty.

Sooooo delicious restaurant with a lot of choice and fast service.

A very familiar and authentic restaurant that fuses Japanese and Vietnamese cuisine. We really liked it, especially the variety of dishes worth it and very surprised.

This restaurant impressed me with its authentic atmosphere and excellent food. The ramen is truly top notch – perfectly seasoned and made with fresh ingredients. The gyozas are also a highlight: crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside and full of flavor. The shop may be small, but that gives it a charming, intimate character. The service was friendly and attentive. I'll definitely be back! An absolute insider tip for all fans of Japanese cuisine.

If you are looking for the perfect udon in Hamburg, then Ume no Hana is the right place for you! The udon noodles are fresh, tender and perfect in taste and texture - a real delight for lovers of Japanese cuisine. An absolute must for all udon fans in the city!

Very tasty food, great selection of Japanese and Vietnamese dishes. The employees are very friendly and the service is quick. Everything's fine. You have to make compromises with the restaurant itself, small, narrow, loud, moderately comfortable, the tables are glued. The transition from shabby chic to rancid is close. And only paying in cash is no longer appropriate.

Delicious food, great service, very nice. It's just a little tight and that makes it a little uncomfortable. Some music was perhaps missing on our evening. Still very nice, good prices, good food, nice staff and interesting facilities.

Unfortunately only mediocre. Unfortunately, the vegan ramen was rather bland. Despite having a reservation, you had to wait for a table and the seats were so close together that you could hardly sit comfortably.

I worked there with a friend in the freezers, I was very satisfied, I still remember it to this day, we used to stay in the hotel first, a smart village, a nice hotel, a motel, we had a good time, we met a lot of good people, imagination, but you only had to go to work, the freezers were under a Slovak agency, it was possible

Nice service. Food served quickly and recommended.

The food is ok. The ramen might not be the best we've had in HH, but it was good. The curry was very tasty, but the portion was far too small and there was hardly any meat. I would possibly come back again for a second chance. However, you also have to say that the ambience is really not that great and you sit very cramped next to the neighboring tables. By the way, you can only pay in cash or with PayPal!

Great place for your Asian cuisine needs ! I only had the time to test the Phõ, and it's quite good. Not exactly the recipe I'm used too (no meatballs or tripes) but it's still very good. The broth is not too fat, very savory and fresh, full of herbs (cilantro, thai basil, soy beans and lemongrass) and the beef is tasty. Served with lemon and some kind of vinegar garlic on the side; we really enjoyed it ! I'd like to test the ramen and some of the starters next time !

Very tasty food! The outside furnishings could be a little more comfortable, but that's a matter of taste.

A great little pub with very good and fresh food. I'll definitely be back. It was very tasty.

The frame soups are simply delicious.

Very nicely decorated, food comes quickly and friendly service. Highly recommend vegan gyozas!

The service was A1. Super nice service and the food was there 5 minutes after ordering. I recommend!

The fact that they only accept cash payment there is really wrong... I think about it Always twice if I go there

Nice little local eatery with top quality food. The food tasted so insanely good.

Delicious Vietnamese and Japanese dishes. The service was good and the food was on the table quickly. Unfortunately a bit full, a reservation can't hurt. For taller people it can be a bit tight under the tables. All in one a really good and inexpensive restaurant. :)

one of the best foods I have ever eaten. thank you🤗

Tasted good and a large selection of Asian (Vietnamese, Thai, Japanese) food.

The food is really good! I can particularly recommend the vegan tonkatsu. Unfortunately the waiters were extremely unfriendly and demotivated.

Asian fusion restaurant with awesome food. The waitress was wonderful and spoke very good English 😁

We were there for lunch and ate menu 8 from the lunch menu. A Vietnamese rice noodle salad (BUN) with spring rolls. The food was served quickly, the service was friendly and the ambience was pleasant. The menu is varied & we will therefore be back.

Very expensive and not particularly tasty

Amazing! Love the food and the vibe and the pase

We had a delicious (vegetarian) meal here, outside on the terrace. Service was fast and friendly. Recommended!

Ordered 2 dishes with udon from the lunch menu. Everything was well prepared, good value for money. Not for special cases, but for occasional visits. Payment only in cash but Paypal is also possible if necessary.

You can eat really well here, whether for lunch or dinner - always delicious! Attention, only cash payment here!

Shortly before closing time they cooked us something to eat. It was on the table incredibly quickly, was fresh, very tasty and even though it was just before closing time, the service was attentive and courteous. We are grateful to have been able to get something warm to eat at the last minute - and then something that was delicious!

Very tasty food! Japanese and Vietnamese selections and a large number of vegetarian/vegan options. Something for everyone! Service is also very nice. Attention: only cash payment possible!

Very good, somewhat Europeanized Vietnamese food, portions rather small, but really good quality. Often full, reservation recommended

Great service, super tasty, super cool🤣 10/10 always good! -> my tip: Spicy Miso Ramen

A very nice, cozy place, with extremely friendly service and the best Udon Curry I've ever had in my life – I recommend ordering it with ramen noodles instead of udon. The broth is masterful, I truly recommend it to everyone. From the outside, it looks completely unassuming, but I assure you, it's worth it!

For us one of the best restaurants in Hamburg! You have to like the edgy atmosphere near the Schanze/Kiez (or at least it shouldn't bother you) - definitely no fancy seats. But incredibly delicious food: Japanese and Vietnamese menu (also: vegan). The ramen/pho is seasoned great and you get large portions for a reasonable price. The udon noodles, bun cha and bibimbap are also so delicious! As a starter we can highly recommend the gyoza with the spicy sauce. We've tried a lot of things in HH, but we always come back to Ume no Hana! The service is always very nice and attentive. The only drawback: no card payment is possible. It would be really great if you could pay cashless in the future, it's just annoying to always have to withdraw extra money. Wait and see! :)

Ramen is definitely highly recommended! Unfortunately you can only pay in cash, which came as a surprise to us. But there is an ATM nearby, so it's not that bad.

The FOOD is super tasty, super seasoned and the homemade lemonades taste great! The service is quick. In terms of price, it is a bit expensive as the portion does not quantitatively reflect the price. But in terms of taste, the high price is definitely justified!

Food is incredible! I had vegan gyoza and the sauce was amazing. Then I had the vegan rice Bowl v17 which was also very very good

Price/performance is not right here. We sat outside on stools at rickety, scuffed tables, which would be fine if the food was good. The dumplings as starters are ready-made products and the sauce is also simply mixed together. I had the duck for 17.50. There were about 5 strips with little meat and fried for too long. With normal Chinese you get 3 times the amount and crispy brown. Service was nice and a little too quick. Even during the starter, the main courses were squeezed somewhere on the table. All of this doesn't even begin to match the prices. There are many better ones.

The food is okay. Comparable to a normal Asian snack bar. But the price is too high and the portions are significantly too small. Feels like a scam.

ATTENTION, the “Vegan” menu is NOT reliably vegan. I was just told by the waiter that coconut milk also contains cow's milk in vegan dishes.

It was really loud outside and not really comfortable on the cheap plastic stools. There are really plenty of good Vietnamese people in Hamburg these days. But the food here just wasn't convincing at all. The number 16 consisted simply of iceberg lettuce, a mountain of rice noodles, water, lime and a few spring rolls. On V11. Only the sauce was better. But the dishes really lacked sophistication and taste. There really are other Vietnamese with better food!!

All very tasty. But lacks ambience everywhere. If you can get along with plastic stools given the prices, fine. The drinks were all great. The food too. But price/performance max. ok.

13€ for a small bowl of rice and a smaller bowl of watery curry soup with hardly any vegetables and unseasoned white chicken. Tastes & looks like the snack bar around the corner (only in nicer dishes), but costs more than twice as much. very unfortunate.

Solid & tasty Vietnamese food with a good selection of dishes, the service is subtle but greenish. The prices are a little higher, but the portions could be larger. One star deducted for the fact that you can only pay in cash, sorry but in 2024 that is no longer appropriate and raises questions as to why it is still handled this way.

The food is really very tasty. There is a good vegan selection. Unfortunately the service is not very attentive. We've been there three times so far and the wrong dishes were brought to us twice. When we brought this to the attention of the staff, we were not offered the correct food; rather, we were persuaded to eat the wrong food. For example, we ordered vegan spring rolls and got summer rolls. Of course they taste good too, but if we had wanted to eat summer rolls we would have ordered them. Comment from the waitress “It’s also vegan”. Oh well.

It’s a good restaurant (3/5) but one thing I cannot forgive to them is that they let beggars get to the restaurant!!!!!!!??

I would definitely recommend this Ramen spot here! I was very happy with my order of "TONKOTSU RAMEN" very tasty all the way through although the vegetarian gyoza could have been a little bit more fried in my opinion.

A small restaurant with authentic Vietnamese flair. You'll want to go back to this restaurant because of the food. This was brought to the table particularly quickly and tasted particularly good.

I've never had a meal served so quickly. Unfortunately, the quality also seems to suffer as a result. The small plastic chairs are at risk of collapsing and are more suitable for a daycare center. Still well attended.

Super tasty, slightly small portions but great taste!
