Ok. What can I say :-) I stopped over in Copehagen on my way to Sweden.
I found this place and gave it a try. I came up to the 9th floor. And the bar keeper did not make me feel very welcome. But they made up for this. He was stressed, I get it.
Anyway. I got my table on the 10th floor. With a great view. I got a drink from the bar first. A " Japanese Smoke". Loved it. I ordered the tasting menu with the exlusive wine pairing. Ok. Look. I liked the wines. The guy poring the wines was very friendly. But not a sommelier, I at least think. He could just not explain a wine in detail. Then, and I see this more often, they have no idea about pacing. How can you serve the next wine when I still have not finished the one before? Ok. He pored a good glass, ok., but still. I think he reaoly knows his wines. But he doesn't shine! Maybe it's the language barrier. I don't know. I think he is much better.
So food. In any other restaurant with a tasting menu the first two courses would be a "amouse bouche". And also the dessert wpuld be something you just get with your espresso after thr desseet.
Look I know. Its small portions. But... not like this.
The food was good. It was. But... nothing special. Just good , tasty food. Thats it.I guess is what u expect for that money. I don't know what the chef wants. Its all over the place. Sorry. Does the chef know? You need a story!
What about service. Mmm. I dont know. They were friendlly. But.... use a tray. Dont just show up behind me with a plate in your hand and put in in front of me. Sorry guys. Not there yet. Keep improving.

Look. If you are in Copenhagen. It's...
Read moreOverall a good experience. The location, view and ambiance was perfect. The staff was very friendly. However, the service was a bit slow, especially in the beginning, where it took a while for someone to take our drinks orders and for the first course to come out.
There were some great dishes that were very creative and full of flavor. We ate way too much of their bread and fermented butter, it tasted so good! It was also really nice that they kept re-filling it, I really appreciate that level of service, especially at these more expensive tasting menu places, where you sometimes can leave a bit hungry. We left very full here! The mushroom dish was also incredible, I think I could eat it every day!
I was, however, a bit disappointed with the vegetarian menu. There were a few places where vegetarian meant simply removing the meat or fish aspect of the dish, without a substitute. The main vegetarian dish also just felt like re-using elements of the menu. Instead of the pork, I was served celery, which was served very similar to how it was served in an earlier dish. When visiting these more high-end tasting menu places, I generally expect a bit more creativity when it comes to the vegetarian menus.
That being said, everything tasted great and the presentation...
