Restaurants in Copenhagen
When Noma was named the world's best restaurant for the first time in 2010, foodies worldwide suddenly saw how Copenhagen transformed its dining scene from meatballs and smørrebrød (open sandwiches) to Michelin-starred meals in such a short space of time. Today, although meatballs and smørrebrød done the traditional way are still available for those who want them, restaurants of all standings are pushing themselves to deliver outstanding new Nordic cuisine, embracing organic and locally-produced food without compromising on quality. The result is clear, Copenhagen has secured its position as a gourmet's paradise.
The Copenhagen restaurants below have been hand-picked by our author and grouped into three pricing categories:
Expensive (over Dkk1,000)
Moderate (Dkk500 to Dkk1,00)
Cheap (up to Dkk500)
These Copenhagen restaurant prices are for a three-course meal for one person, excluding alcoholic drinks. All include VAT but do not a service charge. Tipping is not a tradition, though most people leave a few kroners.
