We visited Khun Juk restaurant last Saturday, and in all honesty, our experience was remarkable. It was truly that remarkable that for the first time (as one can probably see) I felt the need to write a review for a restaurant.
From the moment we entered, we were captivated by the warm and inviting ambiance, which clearly reflected thoughtful attention to every detail. The décor was simply beautiful, creating an atmosphere where you immediately feel comfortable and welcomed.
But what truly set this place apart was the exceptional food. Having previously lived in Copenhagen and dined at numerous restaurants across the city, I can confidently say that Khun Juk offered the best culinary experience I've ever had here. Every dish we ordered was absolutely fabolous, for us it was clear that great care and expertise went into preparing each meal and you could feel the passion. I genuinely cannot recommend the food highly enough.
Moreover, the service was outstanding. The staff's passion for their work was evident in every interaction—they were attentive, warm, and genuinely enthusiastic. After meeting Khun Juk himself, we realized that this exceptional hospitality was not accidental but driven by genuine passion, love, and care. This is the kind of heartfelt hospitality that makes dining out an absolute joy.
Even something as simple as the restrooms reflected the overall excellence of the restaurant—spotlessly clean and beautifully designed. I feel like mentioning restrooms in a review truly says a lot!
We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and could not have chosen a better place to spend our last day in Copenhagen. Khun Juk has undoubtedly become our favourit restaurant, and we look forward to returning every time we are back in the city. If you're in Copenhagen, do yourself a favor and experience this wonderful restaurant— we absolutely feel like this is...
Read moreA bit difficult to locate as it is situated inside a shopping arcade that’s undergoing renovation. Off Gothersgade, entranceway to arcade next to Vesterkopi copy and print place. Once you pick your way through scaffolding and construction material you will begin to think the directions were wrong...but press on through the forbidding and hazardous walking areas and you will chance upon this gem on the right hand side. Nice ambience, indoors and outdoors. Extremely welcoming staff. We were greeted and seated promptly (had made a reservation) and offered the wine list and menu. The charming waitress who attended on us was new and so a bit unfamiliar with the menu. But our maitre’d was fantastic and knowledgeable. We ordered Satay, Spring Rolls and Coconut Chicken Soup for starters and Tofu+Veggie Paenang Curry, Mussaman Curry and Beef Curry for the Mains. Food arrived promptly and was served very artistically. Tastes were just divine! Very sophisticated. We requested spicy and the flavors and heat were spot on! We rounded off the meal with a fantastic Thai pancake dessert, that came with Coconut ice cream, exotic fruits (Mango, Dragon Fruit and Lychee). All in all a wonderful experience-a place worth returning to again and again. Great service, excellent food and a nice way to round off a chilly København night! Kudos to the owners and staff...
Read moreIf I could give this restaurant zero stars, I would. We were in Copenhagen for two days and decided to have dinner here one of the nights- I had seen the good reviews on trip advisor as well as google maps. To say that this was a bad experience would be an understatement. My first impression walking up to the restaurant was great- beautiful outdoor patio, great ambiance and very fitting decoration. From there, everything went downhill. It took about 20 minutes for someone to pay attention to our table. An hour and twenty minutes later, we sat sitting at the table with no food and no explanation whatsoever as we saw plates upon plates of food being served to what seemed to be a big party outside. Finally, we got a hold of our very unfriendly and bothered waitress who was unwilling to be helfpul and instead spoke to us in a demeaning way. Finally, we received MOST of our food as a few orders took another twenty minutes. When we got our check, the waitress was unapologetic and offered us no compliments of the kitchen or any such typical and expected accommodations after a bad dining...
