Description: Here, in the restaurant of the East Hamburg Hotel, in a surrealistic atmosphere heightened by extremely successful architecture, with a high ceiling and unusual pillars, elegant and modern, Asian and European food cultures come together and merge into tasteful harmony. This is a top class restaurant, completely different from all the rest. Top class kitchen chefs have new and unusual ideas every day, and a very long wine list leaves nothing to be desired.

Sushi is the speciality but the also do 'German' food. the standard is high and the place was hopping the two nights we ate there. Also, which has to be a good sign, it is popular with the people of Hamburg (Hamburger?)

I’ve read about this restaurant on the plane magazine. I’ve arrived in a group of five without reservation. We’ve to wait on the bar for 45m. They’ve placed us in a good spot, just nearby the restaurant center. The decoration combines a mix of design objects and creates a comfortable environment. Some of us decided to go for the sushi...

The food is ok, nothing special comparing to the price. The service were ok too. We were places under a staircase....so there were no view and we can't feel the ambient. For the price we paid, we want the whole package, food service and ambient. They try to stuff so many tables in the restaurant which ending up ruin the... More

I loved the interior design of the bar and the restaurant... Especially the private areas below the stone walls. However, it was quite noisy since we were at the main area. I had read the very good reviews so I was anxious to experience the taste myself. We have selected a coconut lemon soup which was very good (unless you... More

We went here on the basis of TA reviews and because we wanted to walk around the Reeperbahn Festival. We had reserved a few days in advance and requested to be in a more private area of the restaurant -diner beware- stay in the main area! The restaurant has an unusual layout which may suit some tastes but not others,... More

We had expected something else regarding the interior of an old factory, can't really tell what, but I guess everybody has an idea about what a restaurant in an old brownstone building should look like. Anyway, East looks a bit worn out, over the hill, used to be the place but that was some time ago. The sushi is of... More
