Piccolo Paradiso

This place serves excellent vegetarian and vegan food and has elegant decor with personalized service. I've eaten here for dinner four times and was very impressed by the quality and taste of all the dishes and wines. I highly doubt there's much better vegetarian/vegan food in the city, so I could highly recommend this place for dinner, although it is pretty expensive.

There's a "special of the day" card on the first page of the menu. I've always ordered from this and was served very fresh tasting meals as a result, so if there's something you like on here, I think it'd be a good call.

There's also free bread served with each meal with a side of bean and thyme spread. The chef brings out the dishes herself, which is a nice touch. Altogether, I really like this place and think you should go here if you want a higher-end vegetarian/vegan meal.

Looking for organic food in Hamburg, Google found this for us. It is truly a little paradise. Our host Peter Kühn took great care of Colleen and me!

Amazing mostly-vegetarian food, in a elegant yet comfortable setting. Basically, my ideal dinner party.

I had the risotto with Provence herbs and veggies (zucchini was the most memorable); creamy and cheesy, but still firm and not overcooked. Feels like they might have a copy of the Moosewood cookbook, or something similar.

I picked up the peanut and pepper soup and bread as a side --- again, immediately reminded me of the Moosewood. The soup was savory, and the bread was fluffy but still hearty.

The owner wasn't impressed by my first guess at a wine, and steered me towards a grechetto which better matched the risotto; I'm fine taking advice from someone who knows wine better, but there was definitely some steering.

For dessert, I got the crème catalan --- a cinnamon version of a crème brûlée. Tasty, but a bit puddinglike for my taste, and I would have been happy with half a serving.

Many of the other reviews describe it as a vegetarian restaurant, but it does serve a few meat specialties like jamón serrano.

Piccolo Paradiso serves the food I cook for myself --- and they do it better than I do.

Went there with my boyfriend for our first night in Hamburg! Both of us started with a soup and then we had the seitan-Gyros plate which was delicious! The waiter was really nice too! For two soups, two gyros and a bottle of water we paid 53€, which is a bit on the pricier side but I would still highly recommend it!

One of the best meals we ever had...everything was perfectly cooked, with delicious ingredients and served with happiness....Unique tastes and cozy atmosphere! We are definitely going to visit again and again!! Prices were reasonable for such high quality food...

came here for a celebratory dinner with my boyfriend. don't even remember what we ordered (there was a lot of it!) but i was super impressed. it's such a delight as a vegetarian to be able to order basically anything on the menu. everything was delicious, the sampler appetizer platter thingy was wonderful, so full of different flavors and spices. we had a lovely bottle of wine with our dinner which i liked very much even though i'm not really a drinker. the server was friendly & helpful. really not much to complain about here. the chairs could be a bit comfier & the lights dimmer (it is a dinner place, after all!). they also won't give you a glass of water -- you have to buy a bottle. and yeah, it's pricey -- we dropped an even €100 including tip on our evening here. but for a delicious, all-organic vegetarian meal, it's certainly worth the occasional visit.

I was here on Thursday night with my husband. We were blown away by our meal and immediately made a reservation to come back for Saturday night even though we only had three nights total in hamburg! The first night we had the protein salad and meze plate and the second we had spring lasagne, sweet potato peanut soup and a pumpkin curry dish. Every bite is amazing. This is an absolute must experience restaurant. Some of the best food we have ever had. As California foodies, that is saying a lot. And all organic and vegetarian! How is it possible? You have to see for yourself. The hosts are warm, welcoming and personal. Don't miss this special special restaurant. We will think of it for many years to come and will make sure to return.

My boyfriend and I stumbled upon this restaurant while exploring Hamburg on our vacation from the US. My boyfriend is vegan, so food options can be very limited. Piccolo Paradiso could not have been a more perfect place to enjoy an early dinner. We sat on the patio, which was peaceful, with a nice cool breeze. Our waiter was incredibly kind and helpful, since neither of us speak German. He went over the entire menu with us, in English. We decided on a vegan antipasti/tapas platter, as well as a dessert to share. It was the best mixed plate of food I've ever had - vegan or otherwise. The compilation of different flavors from different regions and countries was absolutely divine. We savored every bite. The limonade was delightful as well. We tried the rose water as well as the raspberry, and they were both refreshing, cool, and crisp. Dessert was decadent - chocolate creme brulee that was to die for. Favorite meal we've had in a very, very long time. Best in Hamburg, for sure! We recommend it, 100%.
