The Kebab in Pita came with slices of meat carved from a rotating spit along with plenty of fresh salad including lettuce, pickled onions, and red cabbage, all in a soft, warm pita bread. The Falafel Platter came with four huge, hot, crispy rounds of falafel, along with salad, a thick tzatziki sauce, and creamy, smooth hummus, along with pita bread on the side. The setting was clean, casual, and comfortable, and at each table was a bowl of spicy chili oil that was as flavorful as it was hot, and just a little spoonful added a nice kick to all the different items.

Got here around 6 Friday night and it was quiet but within a few minutes it got busy. (30 minutes wait for food) You order at the counter and when I asked what is recommended? Answer- the Bofsandwich (award winning) or the Flaeskestegsaandwich (Pork-the Classic). I decided on award winning. Ordered with gravy on the side & no fries cause the nice lady at the counter mentioned it's a hearty sandwich. Paired it with a Vulcano Classic (dark) which was pretty good. The interior of the restaurant isn't very big/is cozy and has a fun vibe/rustic feel with pig statues, pictures, random Polaroid pics and various memorabilia & books used for decoration. Now for the sandwich. It is huge! The beef was cooked a perfect medium & was topped with a relish and fried onions & there was a beet relish (takes it to another level!) on the bottom & the bread had baked in-house qualities. The gravy was tasty and great for dipping & you will need a fork & knife. Open only 4.5 hours a day so business must be great. Classic Danish sandwich and comfort food with great service!

Grisen just went all in and looted your grandmother's country house, displaying one absurd item after the other. Being a bit of a hoarder myself I can't help being very much in awe of this place. Fantastic! We ordered the flæskestegssandwich, bøfsandwich+egg and fries with mayo. The service was super friendly and the food came out in no time. I experienced instant regret when I saw my bf's sauce glazed bøfsandwich come out of the kitchen. Alas, I had committed to the flæskestegssandwich and unfortunately found it just OK. It had good size, the pork was tender, but without much flavour and the red cabbage was too sweet for my taste. But I'm happy that Denmark is finally embracing the brioche type of bun and this one was delightful. The fries were crispy and the homemade mayo I could eat with a spoon if nobody was watching. The bøfsandwich received much praise from my companion, so I will definitely come back again to try that one. At some point my bf happily exclaimed: "Ah, I feel like I'm in America!", meant to be taken as a compliment. I would recommend everyone to come here if only to enjoy the atmosphere and marvel at the riches.

I've lived in New Orleans for a while, and I've been on the lookout for a place with great Southern food (House of Souls is another great address for that, btw), and I'm so, so glad that Alabama Social is here to fulfill all my cravings for hot wings, jerk chicken, and cornbread! The hot wings definitely deserve a special shout-out; as do the fries, which are just perfection, served with creole mayo. Their menu changes regularly, and they're recently started serving Po' Boy sandwiches for lunch, which I'm eager to try. Staff has always been friendly and attentive, and I'm personally a huge fan of both the location by the lakes and the interior with dark wood and open kitchen. Bottom line is, I cannot recommend this place enough, and I wish I could eat there every day (and not get fat)!

My wife's colleague suggested we try this place. Why would Americans go to an American restaurant…read morein Denmark? Because it is good. We ordered three course tasting menus, getting six different items between us: a biscuit with pulled pork and a biscuit with pulled beef for appetizers, brisket and baby back ribs for entrees along with sides that included French fries, slaw, and cornbread, chocolate and coconut sundae for dessert as well as a butterscotch pie. I also got a drink called a Harley Davidson which is their take on an old fashioned. The biscuits were smaller than a good ol American buttermilk biscuit, but stood up nicely to the pork and beef. The pork had a nice texture and a tasty Asian slaw, but there was way too much mayonnaise on top. The beef was also a nice texture but I was missing bbq sauce. The brisket entree was a small portion of tender beef topped with onions and some herbs. It wasn't quite bbq, almost more like corned beef. The ribs were charred and spicy. The overall texture and flavor was similar to Chinese spare ribs in some ways. The portion was rather generous compared to the brisket. The side dishes really stole the show. The corn bread was spot on and the accompanying sweet and spicy butter brought it to a new level. The French fries had a good texture and weren't over salted. The slaw was not mayonnaisey. It was an Asian style slaw with a light dressing. My wife asked for an extra order to go she liked it so much. Dessert was a mixed bag. The chocolate and coconut ice cream sundae was well-composed but a little gun shy on the flavors. The butterscotch pie was actually a salted caramel pie, delicious, with a buttermilk ice cream that wasn't much to my taste. Service was good and friendly. The atmosphere was approachable and unpretentious.

Ranked as the 6th best burger in the world by Food and Wine magazine in 2024 ("Organic beef…read morecheeseburger with onions, pickles, and a house Gasoline Sauce. $16 "), the Gasoline Grill hamburger restaurant has multiple locations throughout Denmark. It's one of those things where I was glad I stopped by, but didn't really experience anything with the food or ambiance that would make me recommend this as a out-of-the way stop that the ranking would seem to suggest. This one is the original, using the station building as a walk-up window with the kitchen inside. They have a few picnic tables on the side for outdoor dining, and I do think that it's important to eat the burger as soon as possible. The interesting thing is that it is still a working gas station, with an island with multiple pumps dispensing petrol (which I didn't see being used during my wait) and some electric charging stations (which was actively being used). I was able to place my order (nothing customized, just wanted exactly as they described after about a 10 minute wait, got my lemonade right away, and waited another 10 minutes to get my food (everything is made-to-order). The cheeseburger was 110 DKK, fries was 40, lemonade was 35, and dipping sauce was 10 with 10 off for being a combo. So total was 185 DKK (about $28.88 in USD). The process and food reminded me very much of a Shake Shack, with the young workers working together to produce well-made smashburgers using great ingredients. The color scheme reminds me of a Wingstop, though. I squeezed between a couple of single diners and dug in. The burger was good, with that loose smash burger quality. It came with a mayo based thousand island like sauce (their gasoline sauce), and had tomato, pickles, red onion slices, and a gooey, plentiful cheese. The lemonade was good, and the hint of elderflower made it memorable. The crinkle fries were good, well done fried which I appreciate. Ate the meal fast before my hands started to freeze up, tossed the remains in the gas station islands garbage bin and was on my way. I really do think a food like this is all about where you eat it...if on an airplane, or at a ballpark, or at the beach...yeah, I could see the appeal. But at a gas station in freezing weather on a picnic table...not so much.

The quality is great, you can order for pick up so it kind of works like fast food except WAY less greasy, and the prices are totally reasonable. Pro-tip: if you're feeling extra frugal you could probably save half of your dinner and spread it out over two meals. I usually go here when I'm extra hungry though, so that never happens to me.
