Highly Recommend for local Danish food at a fair price. It celebrates the OG of Danish food and I think it is important although Nordic new cuisine is great tasting.. it was refreshing to really see the local cuisine and was quite good. It is also very reasonably priced.

We had a recommendation from our hotel staff about this authentic Danish food. What a great recommendation. The staff were wonderful and brought us other foods to try. Great experience and we enjoyed the food and hospitality.
