On top of that, the food was honestly subpar. For the price, I expected something fresh and well-made, but it was underwhelming and not worth it at all.

We had a reservation for a Friday night around 8pm, and the restaurant was actually surprisingly not crowded at all. Every bite was perfect and complemented with their 108 lager beer. Also, they probably have the best bread I've ever had. The staff were really great, kind, and friendly. Highly recommended for an unforgettable Copenhagen experience! Some background: There's no escaping Noma's influence on the local dining scene, where nearly every top chef has logged time with René Redzepi. But no restaurant is as closely tied as 108, the first Noma spinoff that opened in a spacious stone building in 2016. The chef and co-owner Kristian Baumann (formerly of both Noma and Relae) adheres to the foraging-pickling-fermenting culinary philosophy, serving blue mussels with salted gooseberries and roasted yeast oil, peas with a dollop of caviar encircled by edible petals, and an astoundingly beautiful bouquet of zucchini flowers and summer greens. What distinguishes 108 is its accessibility: There's an à la carte menu, prices are comparatively modest (most dishes are under 200 kroner), and there are seats for walk-ins in the lively, laid-back dining room.

It seems to be the hottest ticket in town and I thought we weren't going when the waitlist opened up. Lucky us... On the border of Frederiksberg/Nørrebro, it took over the old Gilt bar space. It's an open kitchen with a small counter and then a handful of dining room tables. A very international staff mans the front and back of house and sometimes it's hard to tell who's who. As the menu goes along you then see the breakdown of expertise... Relæ is almost an indescribable flavor experience that often presented things on paper that didn't make sense but were ultimately delicious. It qa often challenging in the best possible way but I do know some who found it inedible. But one likes what one likes. At Jatak the techniques of Relæjave been made leas challenging if one has tried Chinese cuisine specifically from the Cantonese canon. Luckily I grew ip where the two best Chinese places were Cantonese and so I was exposed to a base understanding of the cuisine "s traditional flavors. Plays on the Cantonese pastries, steamed fish, wontons, etc are smattered throughout with a plethora of Danish ingredients and sometimes the melding of techniques. It's a concise and light menu though, not the gut busting examples of dim sum, chow fun, claypots and such ive experienced where i grew up. Not that the latter is a bad thing it's just sometimes you don't want to be comatose after. Beautiful food, delicious intriguing flavors , and a great overall experience.

I can't vouch for authenticity, but the food was delicious We were tired from a full day of flying, almost missing our connection, missing luggage and being ripped off by the taxi driver. So, by the time we arrive at the 25Hour hotel, we were ready to call it a day. Neni is the hotel's restaurant, so, we took the easy way out and went there to eat before turning in for an early night. To our surprise, Neni was just what we need to revive our spirit. We ordered the following: Aubergine from charcoal grill - eggplant for us Americans, grilled with the skin removed. A little mushy, but full of spice and charcoal flavors, delicious. Pulpo on a stick - perfectly grilled to tenderness with Harissa and a touch of lime. Neni Wagyu Kebab - a combination of Wagyu beef and lamb, seasoned with a variety of Mediterranean spice. Served on top of sourdough Pinsa with onion, tomatoes and Tahina sauce. Very flavorful with a balance of spice. Chicken Shawarma - grilled marinated chicken, served on smashed potato bed with grilled onion, garlic cream and herbs. Tasty but a little on the dry side. Service was a little slow, maybe because we were there very early. The main dining area is under a glass roof and feel airy and bright despite a rainy day. There is a more intimate area on the side with a colorful mural. We were surprised by the ambiance and tasty food and it lifted our spirit.

This was one of my most anticipated restaurants for my trip to Scandinavia. I really like fine dining, but also like a bit of whimsy and a bit of fun, and Alouette fits the bill for folks who are looking for a relaxed, fancy meal out with a memorable hospitality / overall experience. From even my early emails with the team, adjusting my reservation and ensuring they could meet my dietary restrictions, I felt like they were as just excited as I was to be dining here. I went to Alouette's new digs (v. 2.0), right across from King's Garden and more centrally located. I had heard so much about the charm of the old location but also just really enjoyed the new one! You enter through a garden/patio area and can see guests who decided to end their meal with patio drinks. I had someone promptly greet me at the door when I arrived. I opted for the standard wine pairing (6 pours) because I was doing a bit of an early birthday celebration. And it was such a delight! Great, perfect pairings, generous pours (including some complimentary top-off's). The food is very, very good, with no meh bites whatsoever. I personally think they are already at 2* status; Michelin might just be waiting for the ceremony to be in Copenhagen in 2026. Chef Nick's specialty are his sauces, which were so perfectly flavorful but light, they were drinkable; no sauce I had on my trip compared to these. The focus on sustainability - using every piece of every ingredient throughout the menu, as well as sourcing locally as much as possible, was a highlight to me. My favorite two bites were probably the reimagined apple pie - very thin sliced layers of apple, cooked down with amazing nostalgic flavors and also the cabbage beignet starter bite - salty, crunchy, light yumminess! I had the privilege of sitting at the chef's table, which was an unrivaled experience to me, because you get a more intimate interaction with staff and get to see all of the food being prepared. The staff here is very international, and it was a delight to even meet someone who used to live in my hometown of Nashville! The staff truly made my night & experience. It felt more like hanging out with a group of friends than going to a restaurant. They knew where I had eaten for lunch that day (tipped off by a spouse who worked in the other restaurant) and greeted me genuinely asking about it, chatted with me about my trip, gave me great recommendations for the rest of my trip, and were overall just really invested in ensuring I had a wonderful night. I happened to go the evening of the Eurovision finals, which I try to watch every year. It turned out the sommelier was also a huge Eurovision fan and he turned the kitchen iPad to YouTube so we could stream it together. A hilarious and fun evening that ended up being just a top fun restaurant experience for me. I think sometimes it can feel like a restaurant treated you specifically especially well, but when I talk to friends who have also dined here, they echo my experience: really personalized, but ultimately unreal and extremely memorable hospitality. For a one Michelin star in Scandinavia, this is also one of the more reasonably priced options. To me, Alouette is a must-try when looking for a fancy meal in Copenhagen.

I compared that meal to the meal we had at Alouette years back and Per Se felt like Applebees. First off the space and atmosphere amazing. My husband made known my dietary restriction when making the reservation. My husband and I got the same meals except mine was carefully and skillfully made without dairy. Every bite was unique and incredible. The staff knew every dish with detail and answered any question we had. I got up to use the restroom and when I got back a flower was placed at my place setting. We were very taken care of and we felt like family when we left. Years later I can't stop thinking about it. The meal here was truly unforgettable. If you go to Copenhagen, it will be a wasted trip if you don't eat here.

I'm not quite sure how to describe any of the dishes since the ingredients used were so abundant and complicated, but trust me that it was amazing!

It's hard to recommend specific dishes because the menu will change regularly and you probably won't eat the same things but I absolutely loved the grilled lettuce with homemade ricotta and nutritional yeast, the pita with beef was absolutely tasty and the pannacotta was to die for.

One interesting aspect is that the table has all the utensils in a hidden drawer. Pre-appetizer Fried shallots in sourdough batter with sourdough sauce. This was a nice treat that was lightly fried. The sourdough bread here is definitely the best I've had. It's super fresh from the oven, skin was slightly burnt and crispy and the inside dough was so fluffy. Danish cucumber and coriander mackarel - very light. Nice intro. Not much mackarel taste. Fermented gooseberry and elderflower - this juice pairing was slightly sour from the fermentation. Zuchinni basil, zuchinni sauce - Delightful dish. Very flavorful. Zuchinni was all warm and easy to cut. Very fleshy almost like meat. Fruit juice was basically a palette cleanser prepping my mouth for the same experience over and over. Blueberry and pine honey - reminds me of being in nature. Strong smell of pine. Sweet blueberry aftertaste. This was an amazing juice by itself. Dill with cuts of lamb - interesting dish that came with a contrasting dish made of white radish, sheep yogurt and dill vinegar. Almond milk cheese apricot basalmic sauce. Cracker from waste of almond milk pulp. Cracker was not too crunchy. Almond milk cheese was fantastic. Thick and a little rougher, but very almonds. They used some cheese culture to make it so it's not vegan. Birch tea and earl grey tea - strong earl taste. Heavy on the tongue. Chervil and dandelion juice pairing. Parfait - currant, meringue, rose. Creamy and sweet from the currant. Juice pairing was a good neutralizer for the sweetness.

We ordered additional croquettes and broccolini to feel full. For dessert, the staff told me the white chocolate mousse with dried olives was their best seller. We ordered it and thought the dried olives were an odd addition to a dessert (1 star off). With so many options for good food in the area, I likely will not return to Zeleste.
