Great place with relaxed and very Italian atmosphere! Food is brilliant. The quality and price are perfectly balanced. Staff is very professional and friendly! We were served by Ottavio. Great guy. Establishes close relationship with clients immediately👌🏻 have visited almost every well known Italian restaurant in Hamburg, but fell in love with this one immediately.

The best Italian restaurant I have ever been to. The atmosphere the food the service everything was excellent. Mr. Savvas was very hospitable, and he has huge knowledge and experience about wines. I highly recommend it.

We recently visited Gallo Nero and had a mixed experience. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a staff member who unfortunately came across as quite unfriendly, leaving us initially wondering about our choice. However, the atmosphere shifted positively thanks to our amazing waiter. He was incredibly attentive and went out of his way to accommodate my girlfriend’s food intolerances, which was greatly appreciated. As for the food, it was delicious and well-prepared, though I must note that the prices seemed a bit steep. It appears that you're paying a premium for the location. Overall, while the service from our waiter was outstanding and the food was enjoyable, the initial interaction and the pricing did somewhat impact our experience

Without ANY DOUBT the best Italian not just in Hamburg, but possibly all of Northern Germany. Amazing food, an unbelievable wine list, and the family who run it are fabulous.
Thank you as always, Corrado, Nina and your team.

Such an amazing Italian restaurant in a nice Location. The food is so tasty, and the staff is warm. I ordered Tagliatelle Al Ragu as the main dish and Cremoso Al Mascarpone as dessert. So delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant.

5 stars for everything.
Friendly atmosphere and helpful staff. Food was very taste. Pasta, fish, appetizers. And the desert - mint sorbet is was incredible. If you are here you shouldn’t go without trying it. Thanks my friends for recommendation. This place is like you wan return just when you finish.

This is a typical Italian restaurant. The atmosphere was so nice. It could be better with some Italian music. The food was good specially the appetiser and the dessert but the main course could be much better. The quality was good but the quantity was not enough for me to be honest. The prices were some how expensive compared to the amount of food they bring for you. But I should convince that everything was tasty. The drinks were not so special. The staff were friendly but they not pay attention if you have finished your food or not ! They just wanted to collect the dishes when they think you are done which is not nice. In general it was a good Italian restaurant which was expensive compared to the amount of food you get.

We decided to have a late lunch and called to make sure we could get a table. The Italian lady on the phone was cold and matter-of-fact, stating we wouldn’t need a reservation.
We came by about an hour later and were greeted in the same cold way (probably the same woman). We got a nice table and reviewed the menu. A young Italian waiter in jeans and a casual shirt (he looked very ungroomed) gave us menus and brought water and bread (which isn’t complimentary). After reviewing the menu, which is fairly extensive, we decided to order. The same male waiter started laughing when we ordered. When we asked why he just said “nothing”. It made us feel very uncomfortable and uneasy. This was a first experience.
The food took fairly long to arrive. We received an amuse bouche which was nothing special - bell pepper pieces with pesto (we guess, as the waiter didn’t say). The minestrone soup exceeded our expectations - it was rich and stuffed with vegetables. The beef tartare was not good. The meat had a pungent smell and tasted sour. We strongly advise not to order it.
As main courses we tried the raviolacci di ossobuco and the spaghettoni tartufo with anchovies. We were nervous about the truffles and anchovies combination, thinking the anchovies would overpower the truffles - and we were right. The dish tasted salty anchovies and the truffle flavor was hard to find. The raviolacci was good. As dessert we tried the tiramisu and it was bland and very basic.
Gallo Nero displays Michelin plaques by the entrance. We find it very hard to believe that this restaurant would be given a single Michelin star. Having dined at Quadri in Venice, or Ivigneri in Hamburg, we would say that our experience was very far from a first class dining experience. From the arrogant staff on the phone and in person, to the presentation of the food, and the odd flavors, this restaurant is nowhere near a prime dining experience.
The only reason we rated Gallo Nero three stars instead of two was thanks to the friendly waiter who came at the end of our meal… a Spaniard, from the canary islands… he was friendly, happy, and witty.
Maybe Gallo Nero should consider employing people with his character and mindset instead.
We will not come back to Gallo Nero.
Ambience: 5/5 (the restaurant has a nice interior, and very nice bathrooms)
Staff: 1/5 (except the Canary Island gentleman, 5/5)
Food: 2/5
Price: 2/5 (the dishes can be overpriced, like the truffles/anchovies spaghettoni, or the the drinks).
