Went here with my beloved for a dinner. We had the counter top searing and loved seeing the food being prepared. Very cosy and unpretentious atmosphere and service. The food was absolutely delicious and we enjoyed out experience. Highly recommended and we would certainly visit again!
An outstanding dining experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was thoughtfully prepared with real attention to flavour and presentation. The pairings were exciting and creative, elevating each course to another level. What truly sets this place apart is the staff — dedicated, genuinely warm, and passionate about what they do. You can feel the love and care that goes into every detail. Each course was presented by its creator. This restaurant absolutely deserves the attention of the Michelin Guide, White Guide Nordic, and other leading reviewers. Visit it before it reaches a star category.
Managed to get off the waiting list and had an incredible dinner at Jatak! We sat at the chef's counter and loved watching the kitchen team work in such a spotless environment. Every single dish on the tasting menu was phenomenal and packed with flavor. Huge thanks to Gil and Arbel for the amazing hospitality, and to Chef Dmitry for being so welcoming. We felt right at home and will definitely be back on our next visit!
Amazing experience! The details in their dishes are great. Of course, the food is awesome! My wife does not like seafood but the seafood we ate here, she really loved! The staff was super friendly and accommodating. They go the extra mile to make you feel at home. Highly recommend checking JATAK out.
Second Michelin starred restaurant I’ve tried, and this one is on another level. The setting is perfectly in line with Danish style, intimate, minimal, and calming. The open kitchen is a beautiful touch, allowing you to watch the team at work and really feel part of the experience. The staff is young, sharp, and highly professional. The cuisine blends Asian influences with Danish ingredients in a creative and refined way. Each of the 10 courses is carefully balanced, with excellent technique, precision, and depth of flavor. The quality of the ingredients is outstanding, everything tastes incredibly fresh, well sourced, and thoughtfully paired. Presentation is elegant without being overdone, and every dish feels intentional rather than experimental for its own sake. You leave the table fully satisfied, both in terms of quantity and overall experience. Definitely recommended.
