Located inside Nordport Plaza hotel, it is unlikely to have visitors other than hotel guests, and that's a real shame.
As described in my previous report, bar atmosphere is elegant and distinctive, even for a more romantic meal or for groups.
Food selection is restricted but that is a plus, for they do care for what's prepared and presented. There is always one vegetarian dish in the menu every day.
Prices are a bit higher but no higher than what one would find when eating at Hamburg Airport anyway.
Diversity is also to be congratulated, for people from different nationalities are employed there.
If one's willing to have good food in an elegant place for a fair price and happens to be near the airport and by car, why not giving Blue a try?
A wonderful country house serving German cuisine, with seasonal menus (kale, asparagus). The service is very good and attentive.
The tiramisu for dessert is a dream.
Large parking lot right outside.
Our first visit to MO's – we've been planning to stop by for a long time.
Burgers are actually a classic thing for us, something we make ourselves at home: baking brioche buns, mincing the tongue – sometimes with brisket – making the sauces ourselves, and so on...
But of course, we also like to eat burgers out, get inspiration, or just compare.
Back to MO's:
We were warmly welcomed by Moh. and escorted to a table of our choice.
We really liked the ambiance and the decor – truly inviting. There was pleasant music playing.
Drinks were brought and served promptly, and special requests were happily accommodated without complaint.
We ordered a cheeseburger and a lamb burger – the lamb burger with sweet potato fries, the cheeseburger with regular fries.
The sauces are homemade here; we chose burger sauce and chili mayo as a side dish. Both tasted super fresh and were based on very good mayonnaise.
The burgers arrived fresh and hot, the fries and sauces were served separately in small bowls.
The fries were super crispy – especially the sweet potato fries stayed crispy and delicious until the end. Moh. really chose a good product.
The burgers:
The lamb burger came in a ciabatta-like bun, was delicious, and with its meatless patty, also suitable for vegans.
The cheeseburger came in a brioche bun – also excellent.
The sauce wasn't overpowering, and all the ingredients were fresh.
The lamb patty, as expected, tasted slightly of lamb – a good choice. My wife would order it again: "It's something different!"
I was also very satisfied with my cheeseburger – good flavor, only the texture was slightly too firm.
After the meal, we chatted with the host – what a sweet, nice person! Somehow, we immediately connected.
To finish, Moh. served us an espresso.
The MOKITO blend came in hot cups from the Italian portafilter machine – great!
We roast our own coffee and appreciate a good espresso.
The blend had a fine acidity, good spice, and a hint of dark chocolate on the finish. I suspect a high Robusta content combined with fine Arabica.
The interested reader of this review may be wondering:
"Why are they writing so much about burgers?"
Quite simply: MO's Burger impresses with its overall concept:
- Great, inviting, and "holding" atmosphere
- Warm, attentive, and honest host <3
- Delicious food – served hot, good quality
- You'll be full and feel completely at ease afterwards
- Excellent coffee
In terms of price, MO's is below average by current standards; we would have happily paid €3-4 more for everything.
The menu selection is quite extensive, so everyone will find something delicious.
Well-deserved 5 stars.
We felt very comfortable and will be back.
We recently had dinner with Stella and Dimi and overall everything was fine. The gyros could have been a little crispier for our taste, but the taste was absolutely fine. The service was friendly and pleasant, you can tell that people work here with heart.
The ambience is rather simple – functional and in keeping with the location next to the tennis court. With a few small details you could perhaps make it a little more comfortable, but it fits with the casual atmosphere.
All in all a nice place for an uncomplicated meal - we'll happily come back.
Schon bei der Telefonreservierung für drei Personen wurden wir ausgesprochen freundlich und aufmerksam behandelt – das hat direkt einen guten Eindruck hinterlassen. Beim Betreten des Lokals waren wir zunächst etwas überrascht: Von außen und auf den ersten Blick wirkt die Taverna Amfipolis fast wie ein kleiner Imbiss, denn das Restaurant ist wirklich nicht groß und hat nur wenige Tische. Aber: Die Größe sagt hier gar nichts über die Qualität aus!
Das Betreiber-Ehepaar empfing uns herzlich, man fühlt sich direkt willkommen und wie bei Freunden zu Gast. Wir entschieden uns für die Platte für drei Personen, die mit verschiedenen Fleischsorten und reichlich Beilagen (Pommes, Kartoffeln, Reis) wirklich großzügig bestückt war. Vorweg gab es eine große Salatplatte mit Schafskäse – frisch, knackig, lecker.
Ein echtes Highlight war der Tzaziki – mit Gurke und Knoblauch, cremig und einfach unglaublich gut! Dazu gab’s gepflegte Biere – perfekt gekühlt und passend zum Essen.
Besonders charmant: es gab mehrmals einen Ouzo aufs Haus – vor dem Essen, zwischendurch und zum Abschluss. So entstand eine lockere, fröhliche Stimmung und wir haben einfach nett zusammengesessen und den Abend genossen.
Fazit: Ein kleines, bodenständiges griechisches Restaurant mit viel Herz und hervorragendem Essen. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!
We had the Olympus plate, schnitzel and more...
The meat is so dry that you are forced to order more tzatziki. Anything more than dead is no longer possible.
Feels the desert in your mouth.
Getting a schnitzel with chicken out of the fryer so dry is really an achievement.
We expected better given the prices.
We just advise against it here. You can get better food for half the price elsewhere.
