Reservation through Tripadvisor worked perfectly. Reception and service very polite and forthcoming. Food excellent. As the kitchen is "open" to the dining room, it can sometimes feel a bit noisy but on the other hand side its nice to see the chefs at work :-)

We checked out the Apples due to the recommendations on TripAdvisor. We ordered the five-course menu including wine for 59€ which definitely is a deal. The courses were good, the ingredients partly excellent. We liked the combination of five wines escalating with the courses. We thought that nothing was really mind-blowing (or tongue-twisting), in fact we missed the love or... More

I know this is the no rated restaurant in Hamburg but my opinion would be "very good but not great" Ate here with several business colleagues recently and the Goats Cheese starter was excellent. I then shared a Chateaubriand steak with one colleague and it was pretty good but really just like a nice Fillet Steak. Chateaubriand should be more... More

Wonderful food, carefully prepared. The beef was tender, the ravioi was heavenly and don't even get me started on the desserts!

Food and service could not be faulted but it comes at a price. Sometimes hotel restaurants have no character, but this is not the case with Apples (I asked why the name but the waitress did not really know). I liked the idea of a limited menu but there is still a choice of fish, meat or vegetarian for diners.... More

I was able to have chestnut ravioli - a german cuisine here! I appreciate having food that you don't have 'round the world' served when I am visiting foreign spots!

We tend not to eat dinners in the hotel we are staying in as we enjoy the adventure of discovering the best food the city has to offer. That attitude changed the moment we saw Apples in Hamburg's Park Hyatt at Bugenhagenstrasse 8. What a beautiful restaurant with incredible food and service. The open show kitchen kept us entertained and... More

Whether llunch for 2 or a group of 4 to 5, you can't miss at Apples. The menu is fresh, interesting and ever-chagning with the seasons. The service is excellent. The lunch specials can't be beat. And after you go there for lunch, you will want to come back for dinner!
