Do not understand the 3 star ratings. Yes, the menu is limited (think of it as fixed courses with some add ons you can order) every dish was outstanding, with no weak links, which is exactly what you want in a progressive (sequenced, not political) dinner. Flavors were bright and well balanced, with just the right amount of kick on the appropriate dishes. This is refined, top shelf Mexican cuisine (which is what you would expect from a chef with her resume). On par with Cosme in NYC and the top restaurants in Mexico City. Service was great and loved that their house margarita is made with Mescal. For a differentiated, excellent dining experience, I definitely recommend Sanchez. read more

Before I begin, it shocked me to see this place below a 4.0 star rating. Sanchez came highly recommended to us by our beer tour guide who said this place belonged to people who were part of a bigger restaurant in the city. When we got there they were not open yet and were having a staff meeting which to me is wonderful and you can tell they are professional and structured. Yes, it's a bit pricey but the food was delicious. We started with sea weed tostadas which to a Guatemalan is questionable however they were so good! I could have had 2 more! Then we had a tamale and some tacos. The service was excellent and watching the chefs prep was pretty fun. This vibe and food may not be for everyone and it's not your food truck taco stand, it's different but it's good. Give it a try for a special occasion! No reservations made just walked up on a Friday night. read more

We came here with a large group of 9 for the tasting menu and the staff, service and food was an overall great experience! I highly recommend getting a reservation as it's not a large restaurant and it was full on a Friday night. The margarita was a big hit, and although I do enjoy Pina colada, theirs was good, though I preferred the margarita even more. Our server was very accommodating, entertaining, and informative of the food and mezcal we consumed. Definitely worth checking out when in Copenhagen. read more

It doesn't like the reviews are current. I had to go back and check the address to see if I was describing the same place. Anyway, we had a very good meal here. The tacos were Mexican not TexMex. Some were adapted to some of preferred local ingredients and others like the carnitas and cochinita pibil were classics. The mixed drinks were delicious too. The service was prompt and friendly. I'd go back if I were staying longer in town. You should make reservations if you want the sit down experience otherwise they have some taco stands in town as well. read more

Hands down the best Mexican food we have ever eaten. They do a small menu perfectly. As a California girl it's hard to admit that they had perfect guacamole. The staff is friendly, and very helpful. If you are in Copenhagen and don't eat here you have truly missed one of the best meals you will ever eat. read more

My housemate recommended this place, as a foodie who follows Noma and the staff who work there. Sanchez was started by Chef Sanchez, apparently an alumni of Noma. We flew into Copenhagen on a Monday morning and were luckily able to land a reservation at Sanchez for a table of 2 for 8pm that evening. The restaurant was packed when we arrived, and it took a while to get water and menus (we had to flag down a waiter). We had to do this yet again when requesting another water glass. Once we ordered a cocktail and food, the plates came out quickly but after our last course, we received no attention for 15 minutes until flagging down our waiter again. Surprisingly slow service for a Monday evening - perhaps the downside of the instant popularity generated by being associated with Noma. The plates themselves were small but tasty - the tortilla chips were fresh and had an excellent crunch. The guacamole too was great. Oddly, we received no side plates, even for the appetisers which were shared. This meant that the table got pretty messy fairly quickly (cauliflower ceviche drips about as much as you'd think) and I managed to stain a nearly new shirt... There was basically no choice when it came to larger plates - as of February 2018 you either order two tacos (with a filling that changes depending on the day - today it was "dirty carnitas" for meat eaters or goat cheese, avocado mayonnaise and vegetables for vegetarians) or the five course tasting menu. This was a little confusing so we ordered 3 of the 5 possible appetisers and a large plate each and were mostly satisfied. I don't have a bearing for cost in the Copenhagen area but it felt a little expensive for what we received. That said, the service was ultimately what fell short (and hopefully something that is easy to improve) - hence the 3 star review. read more

Sanchez - Dirty carnitas tacos. - Mexican Near Me - København

Delicious!!!!!! And spicy! Loved the heat from the kitchen! We shared many small plates (amazing tuna / avocado toastada & generous serving of fried pork skin with chile de arbol salsa) which we ordered off the menu, and then the "5 favourite servings" as executed by the Sanchez staff. We were blown away by mixture of flavors in several dishes - especially the bowl of various berries in a complementary syrup - I could eat bowls of that all afternoon!! Would love to come back and try some more items here. Great service. Highly recommending this place. read more

If I told you there were incredible tacos in Denmark, you may think I've been living away from California too long to recognize what a real taco should taste like. But friends, you're wrong--they're doing great things here at Sanchez. Like every great restaurant you'll encounter in this city, it's run by someone who used to work in the kitchen at Noma. Their speciality is Mexican food, and boy is it good. The tacos are a must, and the meat rotates daily. Ours were pork carnitas topped with pickled vegetables and a fantastic grilled tortilla. It was a knockout. Despite the high price point, our table ordered seconds, then thirds. They were outstanding. We also ordered their salmon and tuna tostadas, and they were a refreshing take on ceviche that's standard at many Baja Mexican eateries. Not to be missed as well was their chicharrones that come as a huge strip, and for dessert, you'd be mental not to indulge in one of their house made popsicles. Spicy, tart, and delicious. The perfect ending to a surprisingly delightful experience light years from Mexico. As others have stated, this isn't an inexpensive restaurant. You will get sticker shock and it will likely be one of the priciest meals you'll have in Copenhagen. But depending on what you consider money well spent, you may walk away, like I did, fully satisfied. read more

Being a fan of Chef Sanchez's since Noma and various Hija De Sanchez iterations, including the pop up way back when, I had to check the new place out. A fairly large sitdown restaurant and full bar, the flavors of Mexico, especially Oaxaca come to the fore. We dont even some of this in California and that's a whole lot closer than Copenhagen to MX! But when someone is serious about the cuisine they do their utmost to bring it to life. We had a large spread of delicacies but tight now the dirty duck carnitas tacos still sit on my brain. I dis not think I'd hit my Mexican cuisine fix in Scandinavia but so it happened! read more

Food was pretty good except for the cod empanadas. It tasted like a mushy salt lick. I explained to the server that it didn't taste good - I literally took one bite. She would not remove it from the bill and it soured the whole experience. We were ordering quite a bit of food so I figured she would know that we were being sincere and not trying to get away with it. I paid the bill and left a 20% tip on top of the 25 % tax but won't be returning. read more

We had the 5 plate tasting menu+Sanchez margaritas and Paleta for dessert. Everything was very creative but at the same time preserving the core essence of the original plate, including the chips and salsa which were unique and delicious. The langostinos were memorable , very tasty and quite spicy, I'm salivating as I remember them. Paleta for dessert was spectacular ! Would highly recommend you give this a try. Did not give it 5 stars because the Tamal was not good , perhaps the masa was overly processed. read more

I don't understand these reviews at all. My husband and I had a wonderful time. The food was delicious! We ordered the 5 favorites, taco of the day and the churro. Every single one was amazing and so creative. We saved it for our last night in Copenhagen and we're glad we did. Service was friendly and attentive despite it being crazy busy. I wish I caught the name of our waitress. She had long blonde hair and was very sweet! She really was so nice. We had a great experience; we left with our palates dancing and our bellies full! read more

I was VERY excited about this place. It came to my attention after watching Ugly Delicious, the tacos episode. When I decided I was going to Copenhagen, reserving a table here was the 1st thing I did after reserving our hotel. We finally came here for dinner tonight. The place is cute. Decor is simple, much like most places we've seen in Copenhagen. The South American music was nice. I knew in advance that it was gonna be expensive in Copenhagen. I also knew in advance it was gonna be expensive at Sanchez but I didn't think it was gonna be THAT expensive. I really don't have a problem with paying a lot for great food (which it absolutely was) but the portions were quite mini for the price they cost. Anyhow! The staff was incredible! Happy, courteous, super helpful & friendly. We ordered 3 "small bites" to share: -Two Oysters (with a sauce made with habanero & sea buckthorn) -Pork Chicharron (which came w a yummy salsa) -Octopus Tostada (grilled octopus in pastor paste on avocado slices covered in sauce made with cured eggyolk & habanero) Then we each had an order of "big bite" which consisted of 2 tacos of pulled pork, pickled red onions & habanero. Everything was delicious, no doubt, even though I know a few Mexicans who would be anywhere between confused & pissed off at the bill, LOL!!!! I recommend this place if you can afford the Copenhagen foodie experience. I am very happy that we went :) read more

The place is overrated. It has very little to do with traditional Mexican cousin. The food is spicy. In fact every dish is so hot, that you may not even feel the real taste. Plates are very small. If you are hungry, you need to order the entire menu. But in this case you may burn your stomach. The quality of meal is very poor. We felt sick after dinner. My husband even had fever for 2 days. read more

Crowded and buzzing dining room with a touch of fast food and laidback ambiance. Had the all five small bites for sharing which was a mix of various snacks and chips i.e roasted pork skin and tortillas with different dips and guacamole. All delicious and original, especially the guacamole, but a bit to much crisps over it and not so much "real" food bear the price in mind. The larger bites were to types of tacos. One with pulled pork and local melted cheese, which had a nice taste, but was soaked in some kind of vinegar. The soft shell crab though was cased in a crispy recado negro batter with notes of chilli and smoke in a good combination. For dessert we had both the two options. The Churro Sandwich with frozen Mescal parfait & bitter cream. Tremendous art piece from the former Noma Dessert Chef. The other was an average"Tres Leches" 'ice cream stick'. For the food we had a nice IPA beer and some 'aqua fresca' with pine. All in all a nice original experience showing a new side of Mexican street food in Copenhagen, but also a bit pricey compared to other midrange restaurants in Copenhagen where you get more volume for the buck. read more

Had the "4 servings" which is basically a surprise from the kitchen with explanations from the waiters. It was amazing to taste these different unknown tastea from Mexico, really fun! Unfortunately it was way too expensive and although it said that there were special beverages included, we didn't get anything to drink besides what we ordered. read more

Small plates...each more yummy than the last. We had no res, so we ate at the bar. Which turned out to be a good thing, as we could see the art of the dishes being prepared. That kind of made us want more! We loved everything. And we come from California, so we have no lack of great Mexican food. Still, some of the best I've ever had. And lovely, personal service. The only off note is that the menu says that they can accommodate vegetarians, but when we asked our server about that, she merely restated the obvious, by pointing out the vegetarian selections obvious on the menu. read more

Small portions, very expensive, hurried service even though we were last seating, plain tasting food, and literally 1 shrimp in the shrimp soup. Nah Thank you read more

The tiniest portions and ridiculous over priced. Even the limonade comes in tiny little glasses and cost 50kr! We were a group of five who ordered the "5 favourite servings" for the price of 375kr. We were still hungry when we left the table and had to stop by at Jagers next door for a burger. My friend even tried the Tuna Tostada 95kr as an additional dish to get full. The "tostada" is paper thin tortilla ø10cm with some guacamole and tuna. 95kr(!) for that is to make fun of the customers. I thought Copenhagen had gotten rid of restaurants like this 20 years ago it is indeed not a positive addition to our restaurant scene. read more

Kitchen alchemy! The flavors were a delightful melange I can't even describe. This isn't just tasty, it's like music and science in your mouth at the same time making you stop and listen to your tastebuds. Service was wonderful, too. (Get the palenta dessert.) read more

A 3 star was given because the restaurant charged way too much for the amount of food i got. This ruined the experience. Otherwise atmosphere and tacos tasted good read more

Never write these reviews but just had a miserable experience. Started with bland guacamole covered with cubed tuna smothered in something. The Sanchez Margarita would be be almost impossible to tell it contained anything but overly sweet syrup. Many dishes were spiced to the extreme in lieu of genuine flavor like the octopus tostados. The exceptions were the oysters and the octopus ceviche - both subtly layered in flavors and heat. As long as they don't fire up the food it comes out pretty good. The three entrees: pork tacos, kale tacos, and a whole fried fish also speak to a restaurant looking to keep down food costs at the diners' culinary options. The pork was dry and tough and the kale had every ingredient they could find in the kitchen. To be honest the reason this less than stellar dining experience infuriated me enough to write a review was the less than gracious waitress who proclaimed to me she would not exchange my margarita I had barely touched, but I could buy another drink. There are so many fantastic restaurants in Copenhagen, I would not waste an evening at Sanchez. read more

Beautiful restaurant. Wildly creative chef, attentive and informative staff, and supreme dishes. Outstanding pedigree, authentic cuisine, delicious flavor pairings, and beautifully plated dishes make for one of our most memorable dining experiences in Copenhagen. We had the tostadas, guacamole, house margaritas, a delicious coconut vodka drink, and the churro sandwich for dessert. Apparently the brunch is superlative as well - we'll be back to try it. Run don't walk, this place is awesome. read more

Having grown up in Texas, I'm a huge Mexican food fan. Sanchez delivered in every way possible!

I love Sanchez. While people complain that it is expensive for what you get, I think each bite is worth every dollar/DKK spent! I prefer to order a la carte, as you can try everything you want that way! The tortillas are the best I've ever had, even better than NorCal and SoCal taquerias! So good that we also went back for tacos at HDS. The menu changes often, but there will always be tacos and veggies on the menu. We had delicious spicy pork tacos, best tacos of my life! We also had in-season asparagus with a tangy/nutty danish cheese shaved on top, it was sooooo good. The strawberry and elderflower paleta was a showstopper. Most delicious dessert, very surprising, i wanted to order a second one. Tostadas (salmon and tuna) were mediocre, but everything else was so good that this place definitely deserves 5 stars. I loved the mezcal drinks, margarita was quite good also. read more

Worst experience in wonderful Copenhagen. Service a mess, could not produce food for all of us at the same time, one of us waited ages before food arrived. Waiter had forgotten our messages about allergies, but did produce a spoon and asked us to scrape off the offending substance, which after all was helpful. The waiter was nice and polite but the place seemed seriously understaffed. 25 DDK for a single, small glass of water? Pretentious, silly food - way too expensive. Not sure if it was a snack or a meal. read more

Absolutely lovely. The food was great, especially the squash taco and the dirty carnitas. Great selection of mezcal, and a small but thought off selection of beers. Only downside, it's a bit pricey but then again, you get what you pay for. read more

Excited to try the new place, but wow what a rip off. The whole time the staff were only interested in how much they could upsell us. Two REALLY small tacos (at first I thought there must be another one coming) for 150 DKK. The waitress was pushing the most expensive. They sell IPA by the 20cl??? I was still hungry after spending 500 DKK we had to stop for some food on the way home. Sanchez you are selling cheap Mexican street for you eat with your hands and trying to charge way over. Much better options around or spend a little more and god to a restaurant that cares that you have a good experience not just your wallet. Told the waitres and she just said "that Copenhagen", while asking me for a tip!!!! read more

Food was great. Ive never been charged 200 kr for tap water before though.... pretty overpriced. Super small portions.

Disappointing soup that tasted like paste. The dips - essential in welcoming guests in the cuisine - were excellent with the exception of an Asian style chili dip of no discerning quality. The vegetarian options - favorite servings - had exceptional cilantro, but other than that and the tortillas, they generally had no discerning touch other than small alternation of the ingredients. Service was under-performed, rushed, and the waitress could hardly conceal her impatience. From the diners' perspective, the servicing felt too much like an attempt to upsell. Overall, an exciting place to try in terms of ambiance, but the experience did not warrant a desire for a return. A pity, really. read more

Chef Rosio has done an incredible job at creating the menu. Highly recommend the Favourite Servings option on the menu. Margaritas are delicious! Don't forget to ask for the dessert menu!! read more
