    Mina S.

    how can i describe the food here? contemporary sushi? fusion sushi? in any case, the menu includes very few 'plain' nigiri. but that doesn't stop damindra from serving good sushi. in fact, this is the only restaurant in copenhagen where i have encountered sea urchin (so far). here it is served as gunkan but with unusual addition of shiso leaf and sesame seeds. the sea eel (anago) was delicious, though there was a lot of it! it is wrapped the whole way around the rice, making for a big bite. the sashimi plate was served with a bright and citrusy ponzu sauce; a little too heavy on flavour for my liking but still nice. that is the 'problem' with some of the dishes here; the sauces are tasty but they sometimes overpower the flavour of the fish itself. if you have the money and would like a modern sushi experience, this is a great choice.

    Best rolls, and that is a fact!

Although I have been walking along Vesterbrogade for so many times, somehow this place is invisible to me, only after Linnea R arranged an event to dine here that I discovered this place. I wasn't hungry enough to order the teppanyaki menu so I decided to get the sushi and sashimi menu instead and split a bowl of soba with raw egg with Mina K while the rest of us ordered teppannyaki. Oh well, how sorry I was for not choosing it. The seafood one looked absolutely divine especially when the chef was cooking them in front of us (we were seated by the teppan table). Although the price seemed a bit steep for the menu (420 dkk), you got tons of food for it as I have witnessed from my dining company's meal. You get the starter sushi / sashimi, you get the seafood teppannyaki with rice and miso soup and believe me, there were plenty of food to go around. One thing that pulls one star down from the perfect five was the SLOWNESS of the service. It took forever to get our food (well, the teppanyaki menu was a show of itself) but the sushi took a long time to appear, apparently. Even when we wanted to leave and wanted to get our bill, it took forever as well. This time it was alright because we had great dining company so we didn't mind waiting but we spent what it was like four hours in the restaurant. Sorry, I'd like my food to be faster please. Hungry! *points to stomach*

    Not bad but the service is increadibly SLOOoooooooowwwwww!…read moreThey need more people in the kitchen perhaps.

    I have been dreaming of going back to Copenhagen just for the delectable bowl of Ramen here. The…read morespicy miso ramen here is quite possibly the best ramen I have had in my life ! They have a vegetarian and meat version of it and both variations are delicious. The broth is rich and packs a punch and noodles cooked al dante ensuring they retain their texture instead of turning soggy. Soft boiled egg was just as we expected it to be. We got a refreshing beer to accompany our ramen. Note that the spicy ramen is indeed SPICY, I went with a level 3 and had to take a couple breaks to make it through the bowl. The place itself has a fun interior. Service was friendly. I am so glad we decided to bike all the way to the Norrebro district for a meal here, it took us about 20 mins from our hotel and eating a slurpy soupy bowl of noodles post that on a chilly night was such an experience.

    Unfortunately, we have been to Ramen to Biiru for the last time. After 8 years as neighbours and…read moreregulars (monthly and sometimes weekly), and most recently prior to today 9 days ago, we must end this toxic relationship with the Mikkeller owners. We have stuck by this restaurant through several misses, portion reductions, price increases, and multiple recipe changes (mostly for the worse - fx when they changed the Spicy Goma from pak choi to cabbage and later to an entirely bland, white broth - at least the broth has changed back to its original now but you still pay more for a smaller portion and significantly cheaper produce). But this August and today especially will not be tolerated: 9 days ago, much to our surprise, the free water that has ALWAYS been out at Ramen to Biiru was removed to impose plastic bottled own-brand water (how effin stupid, stop commodifying natural resources). Hot tip: in Denmark, restaurants are not allowed to deny you tap water. Ask for a glass of tap water and you don't have to buy into this stupid capitalistic hellscape. Today, we place our order and hand the waitress our neighbour discount card and stamp card - only for her to point at a freshly printed and framed A4 sign to her left declaring that pr August 1st, these cards are no longer accepted. Of course, this comes as another great surprise seeing as we were there just over a week ago - still very much August - and our cards were accepted just fine. Today as well, we had a free ramen to enjoy - well, no we didn't. When the first of our ramens came, they were cold and the waiter had his whole thumb in my ramen as he served it. Disgusting. The last two ramens (we were 5 together) came over 20 minutes after the other three, and by then the rest of us were obviously done eating. Such poor priorities. The staff is doing what they can, but unfortunately the Mikkeller owners are wet for profit and profit only. In the last year, the management has made extremely poor choices - surely benefiting their pockets in the short run, but guaranteed to hush all their regular and loyal customers far away. Luckily, there are many new ramen places in town and none of them include Mikkeller. Choose a different restaurant.

    One of the best place in town for Japanese and Korean food. Cosy and friendly, spacious and clean.read more

    What a fool I am! In my Studieskolen days, I passed by this place many times but figured it was…read morelike most Japanese-Korean mix establishments: BAD! However I was pleasantly surprised and now I know where to get my Korean fix in Copenhagen when I'm feeling homesick. Since it was a very cold day, I wanted something hot and comforting. The Samgyetang menu (310 dkk) appealed to me especially since it comes with small sides (banchan). Normally this soup is eaten in the summer, but I think it also goes over well on these winter evenings. Our server brought out a whole cornish hen sizzling in the stone pot on a wooden trivet with salt and pepper on the side. Spot-on presentation! However there was no ginger or glutinous rice inside the chicken, much less jujube or ginseng. Although chicken is the star of this dish, the rice and herbs play a huge role. This was very disappointing, even though the meat was cooked perfectly and falling off the bone. Before we were served the main (Korean) dishes, we received a little Japanese appetizers. One was a spinach salad (ohitashi) and a shrimp salad with bean thread (ebi sunomono). These were very nice and refreshing but of course I would have preferred a Korean starter. Soon after came gyoza/mandu, which was good. Right before the mains came out we got the banchan, and so prettily arranged! There was seafood pancake (haemul pajeon), carrot kinpira, kimchi, potato pancake (gamjajeon), and seaweed salad. The kinpira was a bit out of place, I think beansprouts would have fit in better. Though they were a little oily, the pancakes were good. Now the kimchi was excellent! I can say this with confidence since I am Korean, I've been brought up eating kimchi, and I do make my own. You can even buy it by the kilo here. Good to know. At the end of the meal we got a scoop of sickly-sweet strawberry ice cream and a pretty but not very tasty strawberry for dessert. I would have preferred green tea ice cream or even some seasonal fruit, the latter being more common in Korean cuisine. Since it is winter I would have been ok with no dessert and just a cup of ginseng tea instead. Although the missing ingredients in the samgyetang made me feel cheated, the banchan was mostly good and so was the service. I look forward to trying more authentic Korean dishes here.

I always see people in this place but surprised that nobody has written a review here. this place is pretty new I think, opened a month or two only? I live a block away from this place and after reading their articles, I decided to try it out since I have strong sushi crave. Nigiri: Salmon: This is pretty good, but it isn't fat, so it does not melt in your mouth. NY salmon: It is just putting a slice of garlic on it, it taste pretty gross, ew Grilled Salmon: This is okay, but I expect it to be out when it comes to my table, and it isnt. If you're in Asia, normally you will get hot seared fish nigiri. So I think they fail, but they can improve by making them last. Tuna: Average Tuna, not special Yellowtail:Average California roll: Meh Herbal Shrimp: Normal, not a fan of shrimp Sunset roll: I'll like it better if the grilled salmon on top is hot and less breadcrumbs on the shrimp, the hot sauce adds flavor in it which is nice Red dragon: really normal Miso: warm and comfy Pork skewer: It was cold when I had them, which is pretty disappointing. I would give them a 3.5 or three stars, but this is their first review and I dont want to demolish their yelp reviews yet. I hope there are more people to review this place to justify them:)

Since day 1 we've been itching to give it a try but schedule just didn't permit it. So we made it a point to dine here on our last night in Copenhagen. True enough it didn't disappoint. Came in without a reservation on a Sunday night and we were seated right away. We decided to get the "As good As It Gets" combo which includes the following: Sesame Edamame - soya beans, grilled with supreme soy & sesame Hotate Kataifi - scallops, miso aioli,trout roe,kataifi & shiso cress Kani Korokke - crab croquettes with wasabi caesar Ebi Bites - tempura shrimp, miso aioli, chili, lime & coriander Tuna Tartare - tuna, avocado, sesame, miso, yuzu and spring onion on crispy flat bread Shake Tataki - salmon, sake-tamari marinated trout roe, daikon, miso, ponzu & daikon cress Hiramasa Kataifi - hiramasa, kataifi,chives, shiso, truffle oil & ponzu Temaki Setto (create your own handroll) - wagyu tartare, lobster & yuzu, kataifi, cress, soya sesame, avocado and sake-tamari marinated ttrout roe with sushi rice and crispy nori Ebi Panko - tempura shrimp & spicy sauce, topped with avocado New York Subway - tempura shrimp, avocado & spicy sauce, topped with salmon & garlic gindaro no miso, black cod & miso Hotate Bacon - scallops & bacon with miso herb It may sound or look like too much but we definitely devoured every single bit of the set.

This was a lot but we nibbled on it pretty fast. We paired it with my Purple Rain while my wife matched it with her usual Espresso Martini. Everything we tried was fresh and great tasting. Would definitely recommend this spot to any Japanese cuisine lover.
