Khun Juk

How to ruin a chef’s otherwise great food? With completely disorganized service. Everything started well but two hours we had only been served our starter. The soup arrived after asking for it, but 30 minutes after we finished it we had to go to the counter ourselves to ask for the main course. Even getting water meant carrying our bottles to the counter. Why don’t you look for these little things when serving the food? By the time the mains came, the restaurant was closing, and plates were being cleared away before one of us had even finished eating. Around us, tables stayed dirty and chairs were left scattered, despite plenty of staff walking past. The one right next to us stood uncleared for an hour! It felt like there were lots of people working, but no one actually in charge. Too many young staff without direction or leadership. The food was very good - creative east-meets-west twists, large portions, and great flavors - but the lack of organization turned what should have been a great evening into a frustrating one.

This is hands down the best Thai restaurant in Copenhagen! The owner, Khun Juk (whose name is also the restaurant’s name), is truly Thai and takes care of the place, his team, and the customers with such warmth and friendliness. The restaurant offers both indoor seating and a lovely outdoor area for the summer. If you’re brave enough, you can even request the food to be cooked at authentic Thai spice levels (be warned—it’s seriously hot!). The dishes are absolutely delicious, with genuine Thai flavors that are not a “tourist versions.” Everything tastes authentic, and the ingredients are fresh and high quality. On top of that, the staff are super friendly (and all of them look great, too!). It’s an amazing spot I would highly recommend—definitely worth visiting!

Not a bad place. Overall, the food was tasty except for the octopus which was rubbery. The service was friendly but slow and you have to catch the waiters. If they came to us more often, we would have drunk and eaten much more. But at some point we got tired of constantly looking out for the staff running by.

This was a lovely experience. The people are very nice and the area out back is such a nice place to enjoy a meal. The food was good but not excellent. I fear the lobster was frozen as it had no taste, only watery. Other food was better and would try again. The chicken satay was very good.

A calm little oasis tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Nyhavn… delicious food and ambience inside is calming. Perfect dinner spot after a long day of sight seeing Fell short of giving it 5 stars as the outdoor sitting ambience and decor could have been approved.. felt very cheap looking compared to the indoor area
