What a delightful little gem this is! We stopped by our first night in Copenhagen and were turned away with no reservation. We were able to secure a reservation for the next night though and it did not disappoint! All the food was delicious and fresh...pepper steak and the mushroom soup are a must-try here! Service was friendly and swift and prices not bad - definitely recommend! read more

This cozy, intimate restaurant is a must try while in Copenhagen. This was my favorite meal while visiting the city. My peppercorn steak was cooked perfectly and so flavorful. The soup was also delicious. The portion sizes were more than filling. There are many highly rated restaurants in Copenhagen, and I would definitely recommend this one for its quality and value. read more

everything was very good. The muscles were outstanding. The mushroom soup was fantastic. The steak was good, but not tender or high-quality like I'm used to from the USA. read more

I don't know what happened to my pictures but this meal was fabulous. The atmosphere is cozy and the service is superb! We sat in the front room. We started with a bottle of wine. We started with their creamy mushroom soup topped with trifle oil. I still dream about this soup. For mains my hubby got the Steak and I got the Duck Confit. Both were perfectly cooked. We had no room for dessert and walked back to our hotel near Tivoli Gardens very satisfied. I Highly recommend this restaurant. read more

While in Copenhagen we enjoyed a delicious dinner here. Seems most nicer places ask immediately "do you have a reservation" and we did not but the host was kind enough to find us a nice table. I had a salmon dish which was beyond delicious. My husband enjoyed pepper steak. We liked this place well enough to certainly return if we were in the area again. read more

When I say, "I want to eat an amazing meal in Copenhagen, but don't want to spend the hundreds of dollars at one of their Michelin-starred restaurants", this is exactly what I wanted. The ambiance is dimly lit, creating a romantic and intimate atmosphere. I recommend making a reservation, although they do accept walk-ins if space allows. I ordered the Olive's 4 Course Menu, which included the Norwegian Salmon Tartar, Mushroom Soup, Peppercorn Steak and a Crème Brûlée. Everything was perfect: the crème brûlée was delicate and subtly sweet, the steak was cooked to perfection at a requested medium rare temperature, the soup had just the right amount of truffle to make it rich, yet homey, and the salmon tartar was exquisite. I was also able to try the Blue Mussels, and wow *chef's kiss* My last meal in Copenhagen did not disappoint!!! read more

Five stars all around! Came here because all the reviews were good and it did not disappoint. I can confirm that the mushroom soup is a must try! My mom and I both had the panko Parmesan chicken and upgraded to the goat cheese salad and were blown away. The flavors were absolutely amazing and we both cleaned out plates. We walked 1 mile out of our way to check this place out and it was worth every step. Prices were very reasonable compared to other restaurants with lesser quality food. Ambiance and service was very nice. We went late enough that we didn't need a reservation but I would highly suggest you make one. read more

The Olive Kitchen & Bar - "The Huff". Best drink in the place. - American Near Me - København

We enjoyed an amazing, world-class food and dining experience at this little gem of a restaurant. We started with a couple of their specialty Drinks: passionate lychee (like a glass of Hawaiian sunshine)and mango lemonade (like sitting on the beach). The menu features a wide variety of artfully crafted choices and we decided to start by sharing the lovely Goat cheese salad which had slices of warmed cheese topping a mixed green salad with dried tomatoes and sunflower seeds-fantastic. For mains I tried the tender and juicy Mustard pork tenderloin with mashed potatoes, slaw and a sweet ratatouille while my wife enjoyed the savory Pepper steak with asparagus and mashed potatoes. One of the fun things about travel is the quirky English translations at chef-driven inventive spots like this. The "Self-saucing chocolate biscuit" (aka molten chocolate cake) served with a creamy scoop of ice cream was the perfect finish to our wonderful meal. Note-this place is very popular so advanced reservations are essential-you can't just show up so plan ahead and make sure this place is on your itinerary. Highly recommended Great wines by the glass read more

Wonderful food and service! Portion sizes were good and between the two of us we shared the ribs, creamy mushroom soup, seared salmon entree and chocolate cake. No leftovers, not stuffed, it was just the right amount of food for us. The creamy mushroom soup was absolutely amazing - rich and delicious - my favorite part of the meal. The ribs were also excellent. They were very tender with a nice slightly crispy rub. The salmon was cooked perfectly, not too overdone and the pea purée and sauce were really nice. The accompanying mix of green beans/ broccolini were also nicely cooked. All the food was timed out well and served appropriately hot. The chocolate biscuit and ice cream had nice flavors and weren't too sweet. I didn't care for the consistency of the biscuit or ice cream and would've preferred both to be less runny. I'd definitely recommend Olive Kitchen & Bar and would come back in the future. We made a reservation a few weeks prior to our visit. read more

Absolutely amazing. My daughter had the sea bass and I had the duck. We had an appetizer of salmon tartare. Everything was perfect, including the service. My daughter is GF and almost everything on the menu is gluten free. This is a gem. read more

Reservations definitely recommended, especially during a holiday period. We saw our fair share of drop-ins being turned away. That said, food at this establishment is daily well prepared. Having been here a few times within a few days during Christmas time, we sampled a cross section of their dishes. My fav was their pistachio crusted Pork with mash potatoes and slaw with honey infused sauce. The flavors all blended together well and was consistently well prepared. Other standouts include the Salmon Tartar and Danish Blue Mussels. Service is attentive and excellent. They also have two other sister restaurants within the city. read more

Went to this on a monday evening without a reservation. I was lucky enough to be seated because my seating wad limited to 90 minutes due to other reservations. By the time I left the place was packed. Service was impeccable. Everyone was friendly and explained each dish. Highly recommend the mushroom soup. Will return next time I'm in copenhagen. read more

Our first night in Copenhagen and we really wanted soup. The mushroom soup here was outstanding! We kept it simple (ate a lot in our last destination) so with the soup we added the cheese plate.

We just had dinner here on 10.11.2021. This review is from Harry Crapo...my boyfriend (I also agree with his review since I have been here twice): This place knows how to make soup...and other stuff!! I've eaten here five times over four trips to Copenhagen. This current trip, I came here hoping to have the same creme of mushroom soup starter I've always had, however, it is no longer on the menu. Much to my surprise, I found something as, if not more, satisfying and delicious; cream of asparagus soup!! Believe it or not...I hate asparagus and trust me...it's amazing! Peppercorn Steak, Parmesan Panko Crusted Chicken, and Duck have all been excellent choices in the past. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Service has always been friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. I'd give it more stars than allowed if possible. read more

Our second night dinner in Copenhagen was The Olive Kitchen & Bar our dinner from start to finish was excellent. The restaurant is very comfortable, a couple of well appointed dining areas. Arrived for our 8:00 pm reservation and were seated promptly. Lots of good menu choices and we decided on the following: Blue Mussels with white wine, garlic and cream. These were fabulous. Goat cheese and Beet Salad, Goat cheese cream, Beets and Orange Vinaigrette. This was very good but know that the beets are essentially raw unlike the cooked style we would have back home. Peppercorn Flank Steak, Served with sweet potato puree, braised vegetables and rosemary peppercorn sauce. Delicious! Duck Confit, Served with caramel potatoes, red cabbage and cranberry suace. Another excellent entree. French Vanilla Creme Brûlée. More please :) Service was excellent all evening, the wine list was very good and we had some glasses of red with the food. Olive Kitchen & Bar has great food, service and an attractive dining area. Dinner here is also a good value compared to other equivalent restaurants. read more

Highlight of our Copenhagen trip. Do book ahead, totally worth planning around. Delicious Old Fashioned, mushroom soup and pork tenderloin!! Attentive service and cozy atmosphere. read more

Great first family meal in Copenhagen. Unassuming but solid service. Great food. I strongly recommend a reservation because it was pretty full despite being early and a weekday. We brought our well behaved foodie 6 yo (and they didn't seem to mind) but it was mostly couples or adult groups. We ordered two starters, two entrees, and a dessert and that was about right for 2 adults and one kid. I might recommend one extra starter if you're hungry. I thought the mussels starter and the chicken entree were the standouts, but they were all good. read more

Great food and service. Highly recommended. Delightful family atmosphere and very friendly staff.

Didn't have a reservation but tried anyway. They were beyond kinda, we got a table within a few Minutes of arriving. We went for the set 4 course menu. It was divine! Salmon tartare. Mushroom soup with truffle oil, flank steak (the most tender; don't go beyond medium) and the pannacotta. The experience was amazing and the staff were gracious, professional and friendly. Just go - thank me later. read more

Excellently prepared, and very fresh sea bass. The service is excellent. This restaurant is special.

Ok it's a tourist trap, but a damn fine one. Theme is comfort food. Starters: superb spare ribs, meaty with good fat balance. Cream of mushroom soup like mom never made; and the tuna tartare with two kinds of onions and avacado cream whicjh makes me want to fly back to CPH for another order. I had the panko Parm chicken served on top of a tangy caper tepanade. On top, perfectly roasted potatoes and a arugula salad. Chicken was super tender and delish! My friend had the flank steak with sweet potato mash. He loved it. Service great; atmosphere basic but cozy and nice with lots of reclaimed wood like you see everywhere in CPH. I like the look. Music was 80s hits which I guess goes with the comfort theme, although chill dinner music would be better. Great experience! read more

Great food, fine cuisine! My husband and I had our wedding dinner at this place on the 31st of May 2019. All of our guests highly recommend this exquisite restaurant. Everyone was fully satisfied and all dishes looked very stunning too! We are grateful for this delicate cuisine, the great atmosphere and specially for the great service. All in all it does deserve more than five stars! P.s the Blue mussels were the best and I could have ordered more than 2 plates, if I wasn't already full! read more

Decent meal at Olive, but nothing as good as I was expecting. I ordered the prix fixe 4-course menu: Norwegian Salmon Tartar with avocado cream, capers and freshly cut herbs. Creamy Mushroom soup made from mixed mushrooms topped with truffle oil. Olive´s Signature Steak tender flank steak served with scalloped potatoes, braised vegetables, and peppercorn sauce. French Vanilla Creme Brulee The salmon was nice in texture. It was fresh. The flavors were not inventive and were a bit too herbaceous. The soup was unctuous and true to the flavor of the mushrooms. The use of truffle oil was a ahamfisted and unnecessary to make a simple soup feel fancier. The steak was well executed, red and juicy. However, it was too heavily seasoned and the saltiness dominated the flavor profile. When mixed with the peppercorn flavors, the seasonings overpowered this dish. At $56, this meal isn't worth it's price. read more

Delicious food & wine in a rustic atmosphere. On our visit (Oct. '19), we started with the salmon tartare, which was dynamite. I had the panko parmesan chicken which was also very good, though the accompanying arugula salad was a bit heavy on the onion for my tastes (especially following the tartare). My wife couldn't stop raving about the seasonal risotto, and the self-saucing chocolate dessert was the exclamation point on a very fine meal. Friendly service, though be sure to confirm your email reservation, or the host may give you a touch of attitude about that. Apart from starting our visit on that note, I'd definitely return and recommend. read more

Had a few different reservations around the city but wanted something with a bit more variety on the menu, and stumbled upon The Olive Kitchen & Bar on TripAdvisor. Was very easy to make an online reservation for 730 on a Sunday. This gem has only been open 5 weeks- but will definitely be a success! The ambiance is very cute- the place only seats about 50 people- and the staff is extremely friendly and will provide you with in-depth descriptions of your order. Also, the presentation of the food is fantastic across the board. Our food breakdown: 2 Steak Orders: YUM! The steak was a good portion size but not too much and came with delicious veggies (roasted carrots, tomatoes, mushrooms, lettuce) and potatoes au gratin- the Parmesan was sprinkled on top. Salmon: Very good portion size. The Norwegian salmon comes on a bed of spinach and quinoa which was very good and helped make the whole meal very filling. Duck: YUM. 3rd duck dish of the trip and it was the crowd favorite. Also came with cranberry sauce and mashed potatoes. Overall this place was such a great find. Not too expensive at all (appetizers at 85 DKK / entrees at 165 DKK) and it was well worth it. I'd come back! read more

One word. AMAZING. Everything from the ease of making a reservation to getting seated promptly at the time of my reservation to the lovely 4-course meal that is the Olive's Menu to the friendly and welcoming staff. The salmon tartare was so light and fresh. The wild mushroom soup with truffle oil was so simple yet flavorful. The steak was perfect! The Malbec paired very well with it. The Baileys creme brûlée so light and yummy. This was one of the highlights of my weekend trip to Copenhagen. I will definitely come back to The Olive Kitchen & Bar. read more

Great food and service, great server - Seemed mostly used by tourists like us - we ate mostly true Danish while we were there, and this was comparable - but wonderful. A bit rustic but modern interior. Left very happy. Considered a trendier part of town, saw numerous students in the area. Our server, [will add later], was exceptional, very personal and versed in multiple languages. read more
