We grabbed a table outside &mdash; weather was just right. Garlic bread came first, warm and buttery. Salmon was cooked well, flaky, not dry. Dessert was a nice way to end. Nothing fancy, but the freshness came through. Maybe a bit slow between courses, but we weren&rsquo;t in a hurry.

The wine list surprised me&mdash;good selection for a place this size. Had the sm&oslash;rrebr&oslash;d with a glass of white, worked nicely together. Prices fair for Copenhagen. Only hiccup was the service lagged a bit mid-meal.

The pizza dough here is genuinely something else&mdash;crisp on the outside, chewy inside, and the sauce has this bright tang that cuts through the cheese. I paired it with a glass of their house red, which worked nicely. Only downside: the place gets loud fast, so go early if you want a relaxed bite.

The Iberico pork was really good, but wow, the wait was long. Took forever to even get the waiter&#39;s attention for the bill. Flavor made it worth it though.

Been coming here for years. The crispy pork is still as good as the first time I tried it. Vintage decor and checkered tablecloths give it a cozy, old-school feel. Service stays consistent too.

Stopped by for a flat white and was honestly surprised by the quality. They&rsquo;ve got a La Marzocco machine and you can tell someone behind the bar actually knows what they&rsquo;re doing. The barista even pointed me to another local place to check out later. Coffee was around 45 DKK, which felt fair for the size. Would come back if I&rsquo;m in the area again.

Waffles were crispy on the outside, soft inside. Ice cream on top melted just right. Coffee did the job too. Solid spot for a sugar fix.

Tasty food and fair prices, though service depends on the day. Their wine list pairs nicely with the mains.

The fish soup here is seriously good&mdash;creamy, rich, and exactly what I needed on a cold day. The place itself feels like a grandma&rsquo;s living room, which I loved. Owner was super welcoming too. It&rsquo;s a bit on the pricey side, but honestly, I didn&rsquo;t mind. Would come back for that soup alone.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Sandwiches were fresh, bread was good. Staff friendly enough. Lots of seating inside and out, which is nice. Got my food pretty fast. It&#39;s fine for what it is, nothing fancy but decent. Probably come back if I&#39;m in the area and need something easy.

Buffet spread was solid&mdash;ribs were the highlight, sushi decent for a buffet. Kids liked the ball pit. Wine list could use more options though. 🍷

The grilled turbot was spot on. Firm, flaky, buttery. Ate it with just lemon and salt, didn&#39;t need anything else. Price was fair for the quality. Maybe a bit loud inside, but I wasn&#39;t there for conversation.

That steak keeps me coming back&mdash;cooked exactly how I asked and seasoned well. I&rsquo;ve ordered it a few times now and it&rsquo;s been consistent each visit. If you&rsquo;re in the mood for meat, this is a solid choice. Service was friendly enough, though I did have to wait a bit longer than I&rsquo;d like for the bill.

The oysters were the standout. Clean, briny, perfect with just a squeeze of lemon. Tasting menu had some real highs, though a couple of dishes felt a bit overwrought. Mixed the set with &agrave; la carte and the bill crept up more than expected. But that oyster alone made it worth it.

Lunch was solid &ndash; the &#39;shooting star&#39; had fresh fish and properly toasted bread. Service was slow, but the food made up for it.

Good coffee and cake, quiet enough to chat. Service was a bit slow to check in, but fine.

The grilled chicken was properly tender and had a nice spice to it. Portions are solid too. Just keep in mind it&#39;s a dry place, no alcohol. The vibe inside is pretty casual, nothing fancy but comfortable enough.

Dropped by for dinner and ordered the grilled salmon with a glass of white wine. The fish was cooked well, flaky and moist. Staff were friendly enough, though it took a bit to get the bill. Portion size felt fair for what you pay. A decent spot if you&#39;re in the area and want something simple.
