We experienced heavy rain and the staff was super accommodating moving our things around and very attentive. We started with a bottle of champagne and oysters. Honestly both were amazing, and the oysters and sauce here were my favorite I had In Copenhagen. The size was perfect, sauce delicious and very easy to eat. My friends ordered fish and chips as a meal and the lobster as well. They loved the fish and chips and as we tried them other places said this one was remarkably better. The lobster was also very, very good. Overall this was a super good experience :) We wished we had time to go back before we returned home.

Honestly, the entire experience here was one of the greatest highlights of our trip. We look forward to coming back someday!

Not worth the hype at all. Below average fare at above average prices. I came here because,…read moreaccording to numerous online sources, this is the place to try while in Copenhagen. They are all wrong. I ordered the oysters, mussels, bread and seaweed butter, tomato salad, and languste. In order, the oysters were pretty good. They were one of two things I enjoyed. However, my stomach didn't feel very good after eating them. The mussels were below average. I've had much better, there just wasn't much flavor to them and the sauce they were in tasted fairly average. The bread and seaweed butter were very good--the bread specifically. The seaweed butter just tasted like butter. The tomato salad was average, it was a little too creamy for my liking. The languste was horrible. I was assured it would taste similar to lobster, it in fact did not. It had a rather funny taste to it, that I wouldn't describe as good. It was meant for two and neither of us found it appealing. It was 1800 DKK, about $275, we shouldn't have ordered it. The establishment is extremely busy, they seem understaffed. Their staff are running this way and that way and it's difficult to get someone's attention. Ambiance is alright. I think if it was a little less busy then it would be nice but the sheer volume of people subtracts from the vibe. Overall do not recommend and I wouldn't come back. Very overrated.

There were outside tables, but it was a bit chilly, so we opted for the nearly deserted inside restaurant. We had a table near the window, so it was a great view. The restaurant was nicely decorated and the service was very friendly. I ordered the gravlax open-faced sandwich, which is smoked salmon (very similar to lox) on an excellent sour dough bread. I opted to skip the mustard sauce, but the sandwich was perfect. My wife had the potato open-faced sandwich, which consisted of new potatoes, organic rye bread, lemon mayonnaise (romaleid), fried onions and pickled pearl onions. She really enjoyed it, along with her Spritz drink. Denmark seems to be one of those countries, where you cannot order tap water. Fair enough. However, our water consisted of an open carafe (which I'm sure was tap water), for which we were charged 50 Krona ($8). This seems high for tap water.

Plus, who doesn't love a great view? :) ==BEER== First thing's first, BEER. The waiter recommended Tuborg Classic (more malty) as it is their staff local favorite. Ordered that and Carlsberg (lighter like Pilsner) and I would agree, Tuborg's got a nicer, stronger flavor. ==FOOD== Ordered the chicken tartlet, which reminded me of a flakey biscuit chicken pot pie. It was good but my favorite was the Danish Meatballs!!! Wonderful blend of soft savory meat and sweet cranberry sauce, mixed with gravy! OOO and top it off, a sweet lady in front of us RAVED about the chocolate cake from her three course meal so just had to order it too. SO FUDGEY GOOD... very rich fudge Belgium chocolate with rich vanilla ice cream. I loved it sprinkled with the crumbles texture!
