Le Grand Rouge — Restaurant in Copenhagen Municipality

The food was great, the blond waiter was super nice, helpful and communicative. Tho the woman that was seating us was rude and obnoxious. We had a reservation for a table and were waiting in the hallway to be seated. The woman responsible for seating guests pushed past us to get to the computer instead of saying “excuse me.” We didn’t realize we were standing too close and we had no bad intentions, but instead of politely excusing herself, she brushed past us and asked if she could get by, with clear irritation in her voice.

Good for groups, service has...

The French tatar with fritters was neat and tasty, even though I personally would have liked a bit more fresh tarragon in it. Nice wine list with something for everyone. Both in price and flavour. Shout out to the staff, who were there at our every whim. Fantastic service! We will...
