The service was excellent throughout - attentive, friendly, and perfectly paced. The food was outstanding. The scallops and potatoes were my personal favorite, cooked beautifully and full of flavor, but a special mention absolutely goes to the beef tartare, which was exceptional. You can really taste the quality and freshness of the ingredients in every dish, and the presentation was just as impressive. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the entire meal and service. Host is a wonderful choice for a special occasion or a memorable dinner in Copenhagen. Highly recommended.

The lettuce salad that came with my beef filet was so crisp that it seemed to have just been picked from the garden. It may not be a bad idea to try their vegetarian prix-fixe menu some time. We came as a group of five people and were given 2 hours and 15 minutes for our table. Service was attentive without being rushed. I appreciated the steady service as I did not want a protracted long dinner. The pacing was just right and we finished our courses in a timely manner.

Every visit feels like stepping into a calm little oasis. Their seasonal prix fixe menu is always a highlight. The chefs at Vækst have a real talent for taking fresh, local ingredients and turning them into something both comforting and exciting. Each course is thoughtful, balanced, and full of bright Nordic flavors. I've never had a meal there that didn't feel memorable. Whether you're going for a special occasion or just want an evening of genuinely great food in a cozy setting, Vækst delivers every time. It's the place I recommend to anyone looking for an authentic, beautifully crafted Copenhagen dining experience.

I never thought I would be saying this about porridge of all things. But, Grød truly opened my eyes…read morein terms of how I could prepare my daily oatmeal. We tried Grød at two locations: the Torvehallerne market and at 7Eleven. The market, I ordered the Oat Porridge which came with apples, roasted almonds and caramel sauce, my mom had the All In! and my dad had the oat waffle. All of us (mostly) left satisfied. My picky father loved his waffle. And I really enjoyed the porridge I had. The oats perfectly cooked, the apples and almonds gave it a nice textural contrast. Plus the caramel, which was more like a dulce de leche added the perfect amount of sweetness without being too sweet. My mom was a bit ambivalent because the All In was too sweet. But to be fair, All In includes all of their toppings. Including chocolate and caramel so her assessment was fair! The Grød at 7Eleven had this wonderful chia pudding, layered with yogurt, natural peanut butter, a berry compote and nuts and I was obsessed. So simple, yet so wholesome. I found a cup at the airport and proceeded to import it back to the States. Overall, it was definitely worth a visit (or 2) to have my mind blown. Grød may not have intended it but this lil Westerner is now leveling up her oats game thanks to their menu!

The Jerusalem artichoke was underseasoned, and tasted like dried potatoes. The shaved truffle on the Jerusalem artichoke did not have any taste (1 star off); it seemed decorative only. The prästost was a good hard cheese, but Knäckebröd was a dry cracker, so it was not an open-faced sandwich at all (1 star off). Maybe we ordered the wrong things.

Only 1 table besides ours and we were desperate and not a good thing when hungry. Service was horrible as I kept on asking when the next item will be coming out? Soup wasn't good, the veggie dish that consisted of cabbage, broccoli, eggplant, and brussel sprouts was decent as the sauce woke up the dish. Rack of lamb was very dry and overcooked, the mussels were probably fresh in the 1980's. They did have an excellent cream sauce with it. The bread was stale and was fresh 2 days ago. The salmon tartar was decent, so yes 2 items were good as the rest not so much. We were being punished by the Yelp Gods for missing out on the good places that had closed 30 minutes prior.

This was our first restaurant in Copenhagen and I was surprised how busy it was at lunchtime…read more Apparently, we should have made a reservation. However, although the ground floor of the restaurant was fun, there was room for us in the second room, which was down a level. The ambiance at Restaurant Karla is welcoming and cozy, in the Danish sense of the word "hygge." I was more than ready to try an open-faced sandwich and mine was the roast beef with horseradish (I omitted this since I'm not a horseradish fan), remoulade and roasted onions. The roast beef was excellent and the sauce and onions added great flavor. My wife had a brie, crackers, and grapes plate, which was nothing special and cost the same as my roast beef sandwich $14 (high for what she got). However, she enjoyed the potato-leek soup with bacon, chives and homemade bread (although again high priced) at $17. Our total bill (including soda) was $61.
