    Surf & Turf
    Christina H.

    After a 10+ hour flight, I wanted to eat somewhere casual and cozy. Restaurant Tight was just around the corner from where I was staying, and did not disappoint! The vibes were exactly what I was hoping for. It looks small when you first walk in, but surprisingly, it can accommodate quite a few people. What I thought would be a quiet evening turned out to be a bit louder than I wanted. I sat upstairs, and from the balcony, I could see large, boisterous parties below. I ordered the Surf 'n' Turf, which featured a perfectly cooked medium-rare steak, tiger prawns, and shellfish croquettes, all beautifully plated on top of lobster sauce. I'd definitely return, though next time, I'm hoping for a quieter service!

    Caesar salad
    Hiro S.

    I stopped by for lunch after walking around the city/doing sightseeing. Had Caesar salad - with juicy chicken and bacon...nice portion and perfect lunch for me! The server was friendly and polite (in fact, I never had bad service while in the region). The ground level of the restaurant is perfect for people watching, btw!

    The MAIN COURSE, BABY!

    Where do I begin to share an eating experience that was so delectable and so incredibly mouthwatering that it overcame a bought of my Barrett's esophagus acting up? I'm afraid of going to sleep for fear of drooling in my dreams and drowning!! The wondrous evening began with the cheerful Danish Maitre'D politely accepting my nitwit reservation for one that I made on line without typing in my name! He pretended to be as astounded with me I that my reservation had no name! Thankfully they serve the infirm who don't scroll down enough in life! But instead of relegating me to a high chair, which I truly deserved for my infantile mistake, he found a spot upstairs next to some lively Italians. Their language is music. And another clue to a fine eatery? French clientele too trolled their gossamer language in rising and ebbing tides of delight. So I had three items: first: the liver pate which I inhaled. You ever eat items on a plate and you don't know what most of them are but the more you taste, the more you love every morsel - whatever it is? The patè and its accoutrements were my seduction. Foie Gras terrine with Rosmarin glace, syltet pære og hypenpure lead to.... THE MAIN ORGIASTIC WOW-DISH! Veal tenderloin with Madeira sauce with truffle, pommes Dauphinoise, chanterelles, butter-braised leeks and freshly cut corn! You read right! So absolutely besotted was I that I ate too quickly and I inhaled a chunk. I began doing what the choking poster illustrates. Only there's never a Heimlicher around to help a choking Barrette's esophogianist so off to the loo I went where a mother was languidly changing her tot until the hub noted a Blue Baby panting - namely - ME! He ushered me in the stall where I hoch tuahed the victual cork! But here's the important part. Here's what's amazing. I returned to my plate, dress shirt stripped off to under tshirt from DC, dazed. Then I gazed upon the tenderloin I'd grazed upon that was left and ....fearlessly capitulated to eating every single molecule!! It was that good!! No hesitation - DEVOURED! Smask! The desert of raspberry crumble with ice cream was a pleasant sweet sorrowful departure to the EPICUREAN Ecstasy THAT PROCEEDED IT! As I lie here next to the Tower Bell's sonorous intonation of the passage of time clanging goodnight at Rådhuspladsen, a wave of sorrow washes over me that I cannot live out the Nietzschean "eternal recurrence" test here - the one of whether an Experience is worth Experiencing where the test is: it is worth doing if you'd want to do it forever! That's how good this was: I'd eat her forever if I could! You think I'm kidding! I dare you! Go!!!

    Still in Copenhagen decided to try out a new restaurant this time. Nordik cuisine with southern flair... that was an amazing experience from the food to the service and atmosphere, everything was exquisite!!! Most item are GF with a very knowledgeable staff... i highly recommend and will definitely be back!! I had the Miso salmon appetizer and the Jerusalem artichoke main course... Why is it called Tight? Cause it's tight quarters...reservations is probably a good idea!

    chanterelles, truffle, and chestnuts
    Luna L.

    excellent choice for a casual nice dinner. chanterelles were SO GOOD. hake was tender and the sauce was interesting and tasty. our server was also memorable. they also seemed to have gluten free options

    Mussels paired with Albariño. What a delicious meal!
    Teo D.

    Great service and excellent food! I had the mussels in a pot and simmered with delicious flavor. Wonderful dining experience. Will be back!

    Lamb
    Toyin D.

    I was looking for a place to eat late on a Friday night. Many restaurants kitchens had closed early or were full. I walked up the host stand and was able to get seating for myself around 9:30. Score. Inside is very warm, cozy and inviting. Staff was very kind and helpful. It was a busy Friday night, so service was a bit spaced out. I chose the lamb which suggested a glass of Beaujolais to go with it. The meal was phenomenal - fantastic flavoring which went well with the wine. It was a great way to end the evening. I'd absolutely recommend coming if nearby.

    Mushroom starter and lobster bisque
    Lily G.

    The portions were very very small for the price and both the waitstaff and the kitchen were slow. They had no tables for walk ins within 2 hours of when we tried to eat, and so we sat at minuscule slanted outdoor chairs. Food was pretty good but was more basic than it should have been.

    Miso salmon
    Lilian Z.

    Visited at 5pm on a Sunday night and the restaurant was suprisingly empty. I didn't come with super high expectations but the food here was absolutely amazing. The miso salmon was nicely marinated and the pork ribs were among the best I've ever had! Prices are average for the area and service is very courteous. I look forward to returning to try more if the menu!

    We ate at Tight for lunch today. Most of our group picked selections from the lunch Smorgasbord menu. It was ALL fantastic!!

    Fantastic fresh food! We ate from the lunch Smorgasbord selections...everything was FANTASTIC! Great service. Very clean bathrooms!

    Rhubarb & Ginger G&T
    Karissa D.

    I am so glad Gasoline Burger ran out of meat! So although I had browsed at this restaurant's reviews earlier in the day I decided I wanted the burger everyone claims is the best...luckily for me they ran out at two locations. So I decided to make my journey back to my hotel and hoped that I would find something along the way. As I was doing so I was looking at my google maps in which I noticed the name "Tight". I'm like hey that's that restaurant I looked at...question was, were they going to take me without a reservation, being that most of the nice restaurants in the area require one. I took my chances and went down the side street. The hostess ask wether I had a reservation, I replied no, a young man looked at her and pointed to the table in the corner. She said I'll just have to clean that for you. Perfect! Everything here was great from the food to the service to the ambience. My G&T wasn't watered down and it was quite large, so you're definitely getting your moneys worth. The lobster bisque was delightful. The hake dish was so damn delicious, I've never had hake before and I doubt anyone back home can make it as good at this one was. It was so flavorful! Closed it off with a yummy apple and blueberry crumble.

    Daniel L.

    The service was excellent. We walked in without making a reservation, but the staff was very friendly and helpful. We were able to be seated in less than 5 minutes. We ordered veal tenderloin with mushrooms and potatoes, and BBQ baby back ribs with salad and potatoes. The pork was from a local organic farm. The veal was very tender and juicy, and the ribs were fantastic, flavorful and crunchy. Both were delicious. I highly recommend this place.

    Charming multilevel space
    Cameron B.

    Fresh, deep and delicious. Charming, warm and efficient dinner. The lamb was served in this sanding jus with pomegranates and a butter salad that was spot on! A charming must visit spot!

Once you find that, it's past the graffiti, up the stairs, and through an unmarked-and-nearly-invisible door behind you. Once you get inside, it's a different world. Giant wooden beams support the ceiling, oil lamps provide gently glowing illumination, and Berkeley / San Francisco-grade hipsters weave between the tables, dropping off plates laden with braised mushrooms, mashed potatoes with leeks, and lamb cutlets. I went for the venison, with whipped potatoes and berry compote. The venison was past tender into soft --- good, but not what I was hoping for. My wife got fish, with a salmon-spinach souffle, some fennel, shrimp, fried potatoes, and a good helping of creamy sauce. We started with a soup --- translated for us as "like carrots, but white," which we think was parsnip --- that was creamy and rich, but still nicely light. The house red wine was good --- but the house white was absolutely amazing. You have to try it. The meals were quite good, but didn't manage to be as memorable as the experience;

Butter deliciously salty. If they served this with ice cream or something sweet for dessert it would be the perfect sweet/ salty combo - Hiramasa dish: light, refreshing dish. The cheese foam bottom is reminiscent of a whipped, light sour cream and adds depth to the light fish. The shaved asparagus and fingerlimes add the perfect touch of crunch and acidity - Witch flounder, so delicate and mild in flavor, the purée adds depth to this dish while the bread topped outside creates structure.I've never had such a light piece of bread topping Love the garlic dollop and radicchio topping. Every part of this dish feels intentional - Sweetbreads: perfect cook on the meat, I love the light sherry paring with this since the main part of the dish is fried. I loved the combo of pickles and caramelized onion but I'm an onion lover. (Call me shriek) Definitely a nice contrast in texture and more of a main dish than the other 2 - Lamb: the only dish that didn't nail it for me. Cooked well but Felt under seasoned and I didn't have a distinct flavor profile or direction. A bit plain and forgettable - Dessert: tangy, creamy, a great cozy way to wrap up the meal. Unique but simple in design, refreshing and zingy

We started with a single plate of fried squid that was a good size for us to share. Most were cut into French fry like sticks which was different presentation and then fried. All pieces weee dusted with paprika and came with a side of lemon mayo for dipping. Squid had a good chew to it and a good start off to our dinner. Mussels came in a huge pot, the largest serving to date. We ended up filling two bowls with shells. The wine broth was quite delicious and the bread was perfect for dipping and soaking up that goodness. The whole seabass was another well done dish covered in greens and easy to debone. The fish was light and tender. Service was attentive. A bread service per person was added to the check. Tiny restrooms were located next to the check in desk. The restaurant was quite busy by the time we left. We finished in less than the 2 hour time allotment noted in our reservation. Would revisit should we have the opportunity to return to Copenhagen.

Overall, the food was delicious; the ingredients tasted fresh and paired well together but nothing was mind blowing. We did think the mussel soup was a bit too salty. I particularly liked the Hake, which was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside (I had Hake a few days prior and it was on the drier side so was a bit worried) - and particularly enjoyed it more than the cockerel! I also really liked the dessert - there were so many components to a simple looking dessert and everything was so tasty :) Service was just okay. The one thing to note is that they charge a service charge for credit card which isn't clearly stated on the menu anywhere.
