Norrlyst

I had dinner at Norrlyst with my colleagues, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. We started by going up the tower, which is included when you book a table. The view over Copenhagen was stunning and a great way to begin the evening. The restaurant itself is beautiful – high ceilings, marble statues, big windows, and grand staircases. It has a classic, elegant atmosphere. We had the full evening menu, and I chose the beef for the main course. It was perfectly cooked, very flavourful, and served with a generous amount of sauce in a small pot on the side, which I really appreciated. The potatoes that came with it were also excellent. Overall, it was a lovely dining experience, made even better by the impressive surroundings.

I’ve had really phenomenal food in Copenhagen but this just was not it. 2 out of 4 of my courses were practically inedible. If I was older, or in a Karen mood, I would have sent them back. I didn’t even know this place had a star until we showed up, but I’m not sure how?? The wine was good, services was good. Was nearly pitch black in the bathrooms and they were sort of unkempt. Anyway, the scallop soup was nasty - imagine it sitting in someone’s uber delivery bag for 3 hours.. lukewarm, not sure if I should really eat this. And the dessert sorbet thing was totally frozen. Didn’t thaw and felt embarrassed to attempt using a knife to eat. Disappointing for the price.

Amazing danish dishes with a good selection of wines. We had the charcuterie, the beef tartar, the pan fried Hake and the vol au vent. Everything was special and delicious. Excellent service. The restaurant is quite small and was quite warm inside. This might be nice in another time of year but for summer was a bit uncomfortable.

Commendable service and great food. We enjoyed it and will be looking out for new menu's to try it when it's out. Great team of people looking after you although I didn't get names. It felt very personal. Highly recommended.

Delicious food with tatar and hake dishes topping. The intermediate course was delicious and different. I have expected more from desert. We had some misunderstanding with the service regarding wines, else they were awesome. Worth visit. Again received recommendation from Michelin (2025)
