Theo's - Hamburg

We are absolute fans of Theos. If you get back so much good, it's worth 5 stars. Great food and very friendly staff, fantastico!!!!! Please stay that way. One more word to the “Nörglers” that it is better in the meatery and that the operation is unfriendly. I don't know what these people do. I mean, a little further south is the station, there's something to eat.

As always a beautiful evening with top service and top food

We were staying at the Radisson Blu, and it was an easy walk to this restaurant. We had a 6pm reservation, and were seated immediately at a window, so we had great seats. I was totally impressed that our waiter (Lars) had his own business card that he placed on the table. My husband and I ordered filet mignon with side orders of green beans, mashed potatoes and carrots. Our steaks were the best steaks we had in years and were perfectly cooked to our liking. The side orders were prepared with love and tasted delicious. Our taste buds would love to eat in this restaurant every day. The key lime pie was a real treat. Bravo Theo's for a job more than well done. What an amazing culinary experience..

Theo's is the perfect place to go if you want to impress your date/business partner. The design and ambience of the place are very classy and elegant. Our table wasn't ready on time so we were offered to wait at the bar, which was cosy and had a good selection of cocktails. After 20 minutes our table was ready. For the starter my husband had the beef tartar (and liked it), I had the avocado tartar, which I wouldn't recommend; two avocado slices on top on chopped tomatoes. For the price I expected something more.. special. For the main course he had the steak with truffel-mashed potatoes (oh, the potatoes were divine) and I (vegetarian) had a mushroom risotto, which was excellent. Two Chapeaus go to Theo's, one for serving good size meals (unlike in other high-class restaurants where you get a little spit of pasta on your plate and they call it a meal) and one for having good vegetarian dishes, even though it's a steakhouse. For two cocktails, two starters, two main dishes and two 0.25 wine decanters we paid 200 euros including tip. Pricey, but very enjoable. The service was outstanding by the way.

As a steak connoisseur , I have sampled almost all high end steak houses in Hamburg . Theo's in central Hamburg is American inspired with a morden , elegant yet informal environment . To start with , the bar is a great place to have your aperitive before moving to the adjoining dinning area . Ordered an US beef ( they didn't specify exactly which US type it was ) rib eye ...... medium . The steak was served as it should be on a hot plate , the meat was grilled at high temperature giving the top layer a crust with soft meat underneath . The sides were good (though they give it a fusion touch ); I like classic and hence had to ask them to do it without any twist . Service was good , attentive waitress without being overbearing . For dessert , the mixed variation my guest tried looked good but can't comment on its taste . They have a good selection of wine even by the glass .... would recommend this for steak lovers ; price point is acceptable as per fine dinning steak house standards though would be considered expensive by averages Hamburg prices . Prior Booking highly recommended . Parking might be an issue (unless you use the Elysee hotels parking )but not impossible ; it's a very short walk from the Damtor railway station .
