The food and service were nice. We both had 2 course, which comes with 2 glasses of wine- or whatever the other 2 drinks you'd like. I can't drink at the moment, so I had some hot tea with my first course, and then organic smoothie with my second/main dish. The restaurant can be a bit cozier with its chairs and the overall atmosphere, but again, we like their philosophy and food- would love to go back again!

This was our nice meal out in Aarhus. Mefisto is a seafood restaurant that's a bit on the "stuffy"…read moreside, but we still had a pleasant enough time despite completely overordering. We both started with their elderflower aperitif--a wonderful cocktail that was citrusy and not too floral. For dinner, we thought that we were ordering a Caesar salad as a starter to share, but it came out with the main courses, and it was huge and had chicken on it and tasted nothing like Caesar, so we are *finally* learning our lesson that the Danes are clueless when it comes to this particular cuisine. We throw our hands up! The pork schnitzel was very good, nice and crispy, and we enjoyed the peas on the side, but why was the horseradish like a tangle of shredded noodles on top? Confusing! The moules frites our daughter ordered was massive, so that ended up being a waste of money because only a third of them got eaten. The accompanying fries had a tangy seasoning on them that we all loved. One of us also got the stjerneskud, a kind of smørrebrød, because it had to be done once. Imagine a massive piece of bread covered in a bernaise kind of sauce and now it's topped with smoked salmon, a thousand tiny shrimp, a grilled AND steamed plaice (a kind of whitefish). The thing was insane, hence the aforementioned overordering. Service is nice enough. The bill was sky high, which is our main reservation about this place, but it's our own fault at the end of the day for letting our eyes be bigger than our stomachs. We wouldn't necessarily recommend Mefisto at the end of day because we didn't Capital L Love it, but you can certainly have a nice meal here. 3.5 stars rounding up.

Everyone we encountered spoke excellent English, and made us feel more like guests than customers. My only regret is that we visited here on the last night of our stay in Arhus - I look forward to returning next trip!

This is one of those restaurants that has fun with their food and presentations and make it such a memorable experience.

I have been there so many times for both lunch and dinner I stopped counting - even foursquare gave up on me here. They do have a brunch in the weekend, but not very exiting.

They timed when to bring each dish well so that we could proceed with our food together, having our main dish together, etc. My husband also ordered a paired wine menu (they pair different wine for each dish - the price would be doubled), which he was very happy about. This is highly recommended! The only reason I didn't go for it was because I'm currently pregnant, but seeing how jealous I was, the server poured a bit for me to taste. SO good! I may want to say, it almost makes no sense to go there and not have your food matched with their wine- you should really go for their paired wine menu! We also liked that the chefs also came to our table. In fact, we were served by 6 different people during the evening, and they were all very sweet people.
