Mangia — Restaurant in Copenhagen Municipality

Mangia is an institution in the city, so expectations were high. However, the overall feeling of the meal was frustration. We booked a table in the restaurant and they sat us at the bar, which was not a problem. However, felt like we didn't have a waiter the whole evening, despite being passed by most members of staff continually, we felt actively ignored. The food was good, pasta excellent, but the portion size was simply too small. The fish portion looked like a course of a 10 course taster menu, despite being a main at 225kr. The filled pasta was a good portion if you are in kindergarden. No attention was drawn to the food, we had no wine before our first course arrived.We were in and out within an hour which felt like a rip off for the price paid and what is more we didn't want to stay longer. Overall I was frustrated and disappointed, felt like the front of house was negligent and unprofessional and the food was undersized and overpriced. Go to Circolo, it is way better...

Rustic, Bohemian Italian restaurant. We had the 4 course menu for 450DKK, which is overpriced compared to what you get. The ricotta+spinach ravioli was great, as was the dessert ice cream with mint and strawberries, but the other elements in the menu were average at best. What's worse is that 2 out of 3 warm dishes were served too hot so you had to extinguish your mouth with water, unable to taste the flavor very much.

For the same amount you can get a much better deal in restaurants like Radio.

Bonus points for the service, I wasn't familiar with all the wines so I asked for a recommendation twice, and both times was able to try two different wines to see which one I like best.

1220,- for 2 people with only 2 glasses of wine and one non alcoholic cocktail is about 450kr too much compared to the...

Would give it 3,5⭐ if possible. The food is amazing. The taste just seeks through every bit and the pasta is cooked to perfection and deliciously thin. We had three diffent kind of pasta and all of them tasted sooo good. The problem however was the service; we reserved a table at 20.30 and where told it would be "just two minutes" multiple times in a more and more annoyed tone, until half an hour had gone by and we were seated at 21.05. No sorry, no anything. The waiter was okay but not very attended. When we had too pay, they had added something too the bill that we did not have an honest mistake, but with the overall service it just took a little more away from an otherwise really good food...
