    Some good ribs and burger King style fries.
    David L.

    My thing is this. If you are going to serve steak then tenderize it and stop having this dream that says it will magically tenderize because I have a magical spatula. This can ruin the trip for tourists so try to care a little bit about your food more than being a nice spot. So they get a B for beginning to suck if they don't step up on their steak game. Now the ribs were soft and the fries were like Burger King fries so not mad at that. Just step up your game and stick to the butter garlic and peppercorn flakes. I'm just sayin you're also charging too much if your quality is not matching it. Get it together.

    Caesar salad

    Worst Caesar salad I have ever had. And I have had a lot. I'm convinced they threw some mayonnaise and croutons in some lettuce and called it a day. Waitress was nice tho.

    The location of Nyhaven is very touristy part of Copenhagen, is a charming pub right on the canal overlooking the boats. We stopped by for a cocktail after walking around, our waitress was very nice and spoke perfect English, telling us a few fun facts about the area. Stopped by the third day in Copenhagen for lunch just because my husband had looking over the menu a couple says before, we ordered fish and chips and a plate of three open faced sandwiches. Pretty good! Service was slightly slower that day and our waiter kept forgetting our drinks, but it's all good. Cute little Dutch place that is touristy, but without being cheesy.

    Pizza!

    Late on our arrival night we wandered towards the light to find Nyhavn 17. 30 minutes before they closed. We were greeted with smiles and a warm spot by the fire. My pizza. Well it might be in my top five ever. Simple. Crispy. Fresh and perfect size. So impressed!

    Total disappointment. The veggie burger should really be called the celery burger. As that is what is was. Mushed up celery pressed together to form a wet, tasteless if not healthy burger. I've had many a depressing veggie burger in my jaunts around the world. But this is a first. It was so bad that I couldn't stomach it. It was making the bun into mush, the toppings slid out of the burger out of embarrassment of being part of this monstrosity. It could be described as more of a smoothie than a burger. Add to that the double Irish coffee that was no more Irish than your typical American celebrating paddy's day.... I'd mention the annoying people either side of us. A loud French couple were the guy was trying his best to get into the poor girls knickers. On the other side 'oh my gawd' Americans that almost made me want to rescind my citizenship. Alas they were not the places fault. Just the topping on a shitty meal.

    Sat outside for a late lunch on our first day in Copenhagen. We were in search of a traditional menu to try some local favorites. While the food was decent, it was average. I did think the plates had a nice presentation though. The service was pretty slow and items were pricey for what you get. We had the club sandwich, the open face sandwich trio (interesting local flavors), and the mixed green salad with goat cheese. The weather was amazing and it was nice to sit outside along the water and take in the scenes.

    Great food and friendly staff. Best fish and chips we've had across many countries. Bacon like they make at home on an omelette at 2pm that I didn't have to beg for. Could only be happier with this place if they had better tea. Not a fan of Russian Earl Grey. Give it a shot.

    I wish I could give this place zero stars as one is far too generous. Service was...well someone was there to take our order, bring it and take away the dishes. Once flagged down. So yay you did the bare minimum? Anyway I had been craving a decent sandwich and a club is my go to, so I order the club. How can you ruin a simple sandwich you ask? Load it down with mayonnaise. I'm a big mayonnaise fan. I love it, BUT, when it leaks out of my sandwich and all over the plate and my hands? Eh no beuno. The best way I can describe this was mayonnaise with a touch of sandwich. Fries were very meh. I felt bad only eating half, but I just couldn't do it. This experience enjoyed while listening to duelling accordion and idling motorcycle, totally out of the cafes control but added to the experience. Find a better place to eat.

    Terrible and expensive food with poor service. Plenty of other places to eat along the canal.

    The staff was really unfriendly and rude. The food was way to little and not so special. I do not recommend this place.
