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 highly recommend the Salmon it is served with a beautiful whipped mashed potato's and was some of the best Salmon I've ever tasted.

We will be back

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.

Chez Panisse of CPH:…read more - all about the ingredients here - they take reservations, call ahead but they do take walk-ins -live music - singing pianist - no take out, chef cooks for multiple restaurants, we wanted some for brekkie tomorrow Looks like a pub but don't be deterred, we almost were.

They serve traditional food so I got the catch of the day which was cooked in a butter caper sauce and hubby got the lamb which was very good but fattier than what we were used to. It's a one man show so he takes your order, busses your table, makes your drinks and brings out your food. He's good but don't be afraid to flag him down if you need something. Super chill ambiance. Fun place to have dinner.

They have outside seating, but I like sitting inside for the cozy feeling and I like their decor. I recommend getting their pre fixe menu because you get to try different things. It doesn't disappoint. The portions are generous and it's great for sharing. The menu does change and it's nice to get food that's in season. I still think of the cod and potatoes I had here.

Less than half a mile away from Radhuspladsen is this fantastic restaurant that serves smørrebrød of a wide assortment, meat and potatoes, and beer. They have all sorts of things on their menu: salad, burger, shellfish, veal, beef, fish, chicken, and pork. After eating smørrebrød a few times, I was ready for a a heavy meal with meat and potatoes. Filet de Bœuf with Purée de Pommes de Terre: This hit the spot. Presentation was simple yet amazing. Piped potato purée that's been baked/ torched for texture and color. In the middle it beef that was cooked perfectly (so it was tender, juicy and locked in its natural flavor), and slices of butter. 5/5 Service was great and attentive. The interior is quite spacious yet has a relaxed vibe.

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.

It was our first time trying a smorrebrod here in Copenhagen and some were better than others…read more When we arrived there was just one person ahead of us. This was around 4:13 pm on a Saturday. We order three smorrebrod and we ate them in the Tivoli food hall. All were served on plates. The correct way to eat was with a fork and knife as we learned while watching an episode of Somebody Feed Phil. The chicken salad was undoubtedly our favorite. Lots of shredded chicken but overall smooth and tasty. We crumbled the bacon to add some texture and that was even better. The marinated salmon was ok but we liked the nice pop of flavor from the pomegranate seeds. I may try to add them at home to my smoked salmon. The egg and shrimp smorrebrod was tastier. We returned our empty plates back to the counter when we were finished. Not completely in love with open face sandwiches but may try again on a future return trip to Copenhagen.

You can find Hallernes on the fifth floor of the shopping mall. We got there later in the day and there was still an array of toast options - some vegetarian, others pescatarian and others with a heaping of meat on top. We enjoyed the tartar, lemon & dill shrimp and the traditional pork toast. Each was somehow better than the next. Everything was so fresh which really enhanced the contrast of flavors on our plates. We liked it so much we contemplated going back and ordering more! We sat in the dining area to eat, which had a high chair available. We also got a window seat which had a beautiful view of the square below and some stunning architecture. We sat there for awhile just enjoying the view. When we were flying out of the Copenhagen airport we noticed this same restaurant inside one of the terminals. It's awesome to see such high quality food be offered in such casual but busy spaces. We'll definitely be back!

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.

Settled on fried fish and shrimp croquettes (ok). We knew it was a tourist trap, but we were looking for better service. Great location on a beautiful day, if not for the excitement of being in the city... the staff could have destroyed it. On vacation, looking to order a drink, I was advised they only had what was on the menu... mind you, as you look around, the establishment next door was rocking a full bar! In my opinion, pick a trap with friendly inviting and help staff... not unless you like it that way!

Despite its warm, intimate vibe, the restaurant actually has plenty of room, spread across two floors so you never feel cramped, even on a busy evening. It's a great place to settle in for a relaxed meal without feeling rushed. Their menu offers both à la carte options and a prix fixe, which makes it easy to tailor the experience depending on your mood. One dish I always look forward to is their mushroom toast, It's rich, savory, and incredibly satisfying. Their fish dishes are also consistently excellent, cooked with care and full of fresh, bright flavors. Whether you're looking for a comfortable dinner spot or a place to enjoy well-prepared Nordic-inspired dishes, Restaurant Tight is a solid choice. It's the kind of restaurant you walk out of already planning your next visit.
