    I have mixed feelings about this restaurant. The food was good (wouldn't sau wow), the waiter was polite, served us a couple of shots too. But what left me with a weird taste is the fact that we didn't receive a receipt at the end, nor a menu (we were ok to order fish of the day and didn't ask for a menu, but still find it strange they did not to hand out a menu). Not sure if this is what they do in general but just left me wondering (we were obviously not speaking German so don't know if we got the "tourist menu" haha). All in all food and service ok but not very transparent

    Casa Franco is not a restaurant, it's a place to have an excellent dining experience at home. Certainly not your own home, but Franco's. It's rare to meet a host whose goal is not just to entertain or to provide his guests with a culinary journey, but to actually provide for his guests no matter the costs. This is what makes Franco unique, he truly is a traditionally host in the sense of taking care of his guests. If that is what you're looking for, Franco's is the place to go. Enjoy!

    One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. An amazing dinner handpicked and crafted by the chef himself. Traveling from halfway around the world & received authentic Portuguese food. Will definitely be back & will tell others about my amazing experience.

    Went there yesterday at about 8 p.m.- certainly for the last time. The only good thing was that we immediately got a table although it was pretty crowded. There was no written menu, instead Franco, the owner, offered everyone a (three-course) menu which we also chose. The starter - a plate of garlic prawns - came at around 8:20 p.m and tasted rather salty. The following 90 minutes we spent waiting for our main dish, a variation of fish on a wooden plate - in vain. Instead of serving us the food we ordered Franco and his staff were doing effect-seeking performances and giving theatrical speeches, "inviting" everyone to stay until the late evening and announcing that we wouldn't get our bill before 11 p.m. I told Franco that we had further plans for the evening and little time since all the pubs in Hamburg currently have to close at 11 due to Covid. He first ignored us, then promised that our main dish would be served in 10 minutes. After waiting for half an hour more we still didn't have our main dish - unlike other guests wo had arrived after us. That was reason enough for us to cancel our order and ask for the bill. They had us wait for another ten minutes, then charged us with 40 Euros for a bottle of wine, a coke, a small basket of cheap bread and a single plate of prawns. We were neither given a receipt, nor an apology. My summary: If you have a lot of time and look for entertainment rather than eating out, that's the place to go. If you're hungry, better avoid this place.

    Love it! I came here once with some friends and then again I brought my colleagues for a company dinner and both times I had the time of my life! Franco is simply an insane host that knows how to keep his customers happy! Food and drinks were great, live music provided by the amazing Riccardo and a service extremely excellent and professional. Expect spending around 100 euro here, but totally worth it.

    Live music, lively staff, super relaxed environment but packed and no space for moving in between chairs or taes. It has a Spanish feel more than Portuguese but the food was tasty.! They also promote sharing meals. Not ideal for family with kids due to the limited seating and very loud music

  • 5/5 Konrad 9 months ago on Google • 82 reviews
    I just love this place. Been there twice and want to go back again. Superb food, superb service, superb atmosphere...thanks to the owner who is a real host who welcomes guests and helps to serve the food supervising the kitchen and quality of the food. The only downside is that the place get get quite hot since it's small and close to the kitchen

    Franco was an amazing host. Great service Eith Cuban musician sings with his guitar solo around the tables between the courses. This makes the night even more enjoyable with that tasty food. Syrongly reccomend the experience but if you just want to eat and leave it is not a place for you. Need minimum 2-3 hours there

    Had the most amazing experience in Casa Franco last week celebrating my partners birthday. Truly felt like home from the minute we walked in. Food was outstanding and we even all walked down to the port at midnight for a glass of wine to round it all off. When we are back we will visit again 100%. Hats off to you Franco and your team.

  • 5/5 Frida S. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is amazing, staff are awesome and the atmosphere is really fun. Price is fair for what you get (fresh food and about 3 shots of different liquors) I absolutely recommend this place.

  • 5/5 Fabienne L. 2 years ago on Google
    the food was delicious, I highly recommend it, the best food I had in Germany so far, and I‘m from Austria

  • 1/5 Jeffrey 3 years ago on Google
    Extremely tiny place, very narrow seating, that even without corona it would be too tight. Very dangerous how they do not care about corona at all. Unfortunately, we had to leave before we ordered as it was simply not acceptable. Also the manager was rather rude and stressed. If police found out about this place it would most likely be shut down...

  • 4/5 Frode K. 2 years ago on Google
    This is the right place if you are a group with friends which wants to have fun and eat and drink well.

😠 What a beautiful view but what a horrible service. A rude incompetent server. We ordered 3 steaks and he didn’t even ask us how we would like it. All steaks came well done and dead. My mom ordered a simple salad with chicken. How can you mess that up? Wrong salad and wrong dressing. And the chicken...
