Solid sandwiches, decent size for the price. Copenhagen isn&#39;t cheap, so this felt fair. Quick bite before heading out, no complaints.

Been coming here for a while now, and the food stays consistent. That&rsquo;s honestly the main reason I keep going back. Tried the local beers last time too, they&rsquo;re pretty solid. Service was fine, nothing crazy, but you don&rsquo;t really need more when the kitchen knows what it&rsquo;s doing. Place can get a bit busy though.

The carbonara was decent, creamy enough. But the pizza&mdash;that&rsquo;s the one I&rsquo;d come back for. Tasted like actual Italy, not the usual frozen stuff. Bruschetta was fine too, nothing crazy. Just wish the pizza had a bit more char on the crust. Still, best bite I&rsquo;ve had in a while.

Walked in without a booking and they squeezed us in near the bar. Staff were attentive without hovering. Prices matched the quality, no complaints there.

The burger was solid&mdash;cooked right, juicy enough. Fries were the real highlight though, crispy and salty just how I like them. Portion&#39;s on the smaller side for what you pay, but honestly the quality makes up for it. I&#39;d come back if I&#39;m in the area and craving a decent smash burger.

The garden seating really does it here. Felt like I was at a summer party, even on a random weekday. Food was solid, classic Danish stuff, no complaints. Only thing, the live band was a bit much while trying to eat. Could barely hear myself think. But the atmosphere outside made up for it. Nice spot to just sit and soak it in.

The Karamelbombe alone is worth the trip&mdash;rich, not overly sweet, and the texture was spot on. They also handed over a free pastry sample while we waited, still warm and fluffy. Honestly, this place holds its own against the more hyped bakeries around town. I&rsquo;d skip the fancy spots and come here. A glass of cold white wine would&rsquo;ve paired beautifully with that caramel dessert, though.

The rooftop at Illum is lovely&mdash;those views over Copenhagen while eating fresh seafood. The cold platter with sweet shrimp and langoustine really stood out. Fish of the day was cooked just right.

The fried pork was decent, but the potatoes needed more time&mdash;bit hard in the middle. Lobster soup salty like you&#39;d expect. Service fine, place has a good vibe. Prices fair for the area.

The mushroom tagliatelle in that red wine tomato sauce really stood out. Came with warm bread on the side, which I appreciated. Place felt calm, not too busy. Server checked in just enough, didn&#39;t hover. Solid pick if you&#39;re in the area and want something simple. Maybe slightly pricey for pasta, but I&#39;d go back for that sauce.

The tandoori chicken was the standout. Juicy, with that smoky char from the clay oven. The spices were layered, not just heat. Could have used a touch more salt for my taste, but the flavor was solid.

The oysters were spot-on fresh, and that beef tartare really stood out&mdash;properly seasoned, not overdressed. I went with a glass of Sancerre, which cut through the richness nicely. Place was busy but not chaotic. Already thinking about when I can get back for another round.
