Sollerod Kro

Reviewed By Michael U - Las Vegas, Nevada

Located approximately thirty minutes outside of Copenhagen by car, an additional forty for those using a combination of Public Transportation and foot, Søllerød Kro is said by many to be one of Scandinavia’s very best Restaurants, the “White Guide” recently awarding it a top 5 position behind the likes of Michelin 3* Geranium and Maaemo in Oslo.
Described as “French Cuisine” using local ingredients, though recent reports of Chef Brian Mark Hansen’s cooking suggest an increasing element of New Nordic influence, Søllerød Kro is located inside of a 1677 Inn in the middle of a forest, the walk from the bus stop a pleasant one that takes no more than 15 minutes at a steady pace, though most guests during this particular meal appeared to be nearby locals or folks who made the drive from Copenhagen.
Awarded one Michelin Star since 2007 but with a lengthy history, part of that being a Sunday lunch tradition of opening up the space to families and kids of all ages, it was just prior to 11:45am that the first guests arrived at the lengthy white building in Holte, the early moments everything that fine dining should be with “Yes Sir and Yes Ma’am” aplenty and Champagne flowing, though what followed would probably be best described as a few steps above dining at one of the McDonald’s locations with an indoor playground.
For many a special event sort of Restaurant, the menu divided into a bargain Lunch and two Tasting menus, the Søllerød Signatur and Søllerød Inspiration at DKK1795 and 875, respectively, it seemed only appropriate as a first time visitor to place trust in the items on which the restaurant established itself, a Wine list said to be one of the best in all of Europe passed on in favor of one of Alain Milliat’s new Nectars, the pasteurized Cabernet Grape expressive and brisk in a way that pairs well with everything, though obviously a bit sweeter and less complex than serious oenophiles would appreciate.

Listed as an eight course menu, but in reality double that when accounting for several canapés, amuses, palate cleansers and mignardises along the way, it was just before the restaurant started to fill that things got started, a plastic ‘egg’ filled with boiled Potatoes, Summer Truffles and Bread Crumbs rich and creamy while the Asparagus in smoked Cream was a lot like that at AOC the night before, the small morsel of cured Duck around Prune a tasty balance of sweet and salty while the Apple compressed in Lemon Verbena was a refreshing single bite to refresh the palate for flavors to arrive next.
Offering what would turn out to be one of Denmark’s best Bread services at a pace best defined as brisk, a new Roll of either type delivered warm just as soon as the last bite of its predecessor was gone, it was with anything but a French classic that an amuse arrived featuring Watercress Ice Cream and immature Strawberries in a cold soup flavored with Parsley, the “Oscietra Unika En Surprise” that followed described as a Søllerød Kro ‘signature’ but in reality quite similar to something anyone who has dined at Joel Robuchon has experienced with a thin layer of sustainable Caviar stacked on Asparagus Gel and diced Razor Clams alongside a Horseradish Crisp.
Following up Caviar with more Caviar, the grilled Oyster topped in salty black Eggs specially produced for the Restaurant seemingly an odd decision to reuse a flavor profile so early on, course three was unfortunately a case of unnecessary ‘modernism’ creeping into the dining room, the nitrogen frozen Horseradish liberally added to a disc of Scallops topped in both Ginger and Grapefuit presenting a flavor so bitter and cutting that Hansen may as well have been serving Ground Chuck beneath it because no one would have noticed the difference.
Returning all but one bite of the dish to the kitchen, not one question or mention of it from the staff aside from “all finished?,” it was finally here that flavors got more interesting, the Lobster Tail served beneath softened Cabbage and Curry Foam infused with Thai Basil fairly spicy by Danish standards and yet another case of Chef Robuchon’s influence while the Foie Gras Torchon was a pleasant yet standard preparation putting the creamy quarter-hockey puck beneath Kumquat Jam and Dark Chocolate Crisps.
Clearly a restaurant dependent on using luxury ingredients to wow guests, a bronzed ounce of Turbot seared with Bear’s Garlic served next to a gelatin layer of Black Garlic atop Broad Beans coming next, savories finished with a slightly overcooked Loin of wild-shot Deer marinated in Black Pepper Reduction, the flavorless Summer Truffles served as a shredded cloud atop Cabbage more interesting as a texture than a taste beneath foamy Hollandaise.
Cleansing the palate with a warm cup of Lemon-Ginger Tea and a Macaron of complimentary flavor, a harmless little duo that arrived around 14h30 as several Danish children had long since been chasing up and down the aisles unrestrained by oblivious parents, Dessert one again took a post-noma turn by presenting halved-Cherries atop an Almond Caked next to a quenelle of fresh Woodruff Ice Cream, 2/3 of the Mignardises again featuring ingredients served no more than two courses prior while the Mango Popsicle intended to be dipped in White Chocolate was a fairly clumsy presentation that really did not seem to fit the meal’s concept.

Tante Maren

Reviewed By Scottishsuese - Swindon, United Kingdom

If you want to experience typically wholesome dining then this is the place for you. It was a busy night with all tables full and it did look a bit cosy for some of the tables.
The portions are large so come ready with an appetite. Goats cheese first course is delicious.

Big Due

Reviewed By John A - Radcliffe on Trent, United Kingdom

This is basically an Itlalan/pizza restaurant. The basic pizza (only one size offered} is too big for one person but too small for two !! The other meals are good portion sizes and can be recommended.
`the place is very popular particularly on weekend evening and you must book for, if you take pot luck, you will either be politely turned away or gave a long, long wait.

Sushi V Ballerup

Reviewed By Camilla L - Ballerup, Denmark

Visited with a friend and wanted to go for running sushi, unfortunately we had forgotten to make Reservations but hoped for an available table. BUT although it was a tuesday night the restaurant was PACKED. The friendly staff invited us to sit at the window bar seats and start our meal there, after 10-15 minutes the waiter advised us to a table that had just cleared, right next to the running sushi. Really kind staff and great food with good sushi, you will find all different kinds of exciting sushi, not just the plane simpel ones. The running sushi also includes fresh fruit and two types of dessert. All in all a great every day sushi place.

Jonstrup Gl. Kobmandsgaard

Reviewed By Annette_Gould - Vaerloese, Denmark

As usual, it's excellent dishes and very good value for money - especially if you take all 5 dishes :-)
The only downside was the wine 1) it was very expensive, 2 ) comes with a 2nd bottle, when we are almost finished with the dinner ...
They could have been so kind as to offer us a single glass instead.
Apart from that - the service were very good.

When your bearnaise sauce is made from powder, you cannot expect to get very many points. The management is awful and curses in public at the staff - and I also witnessed it at a customer. The salad bar has old stuff.

Restaurant Jaegerhuset

Reviewed By StaceyErin123 - Holte, Denmark

We used jagerhuset for my sons baptism. The location is classic Danish country charm. The brunch was way above my expectations. The food really was outstanding. I would use them for all our family events. I haven't tried the restaurant a-la-cart but the cook makes great food so I'm sure it's a winner.

Frederiksdal Fribad

Reviewed By travelingmom74150

This casual beach restaurant is essentially an all-you-can-eat buffet with 2 choices, salad bar with or without grilled meats. Meats include beef, chicken, pork, fish, and sausages. I certainly wouldn't call it the best BBQ or even the best Brazilian BBQ I have ever had, but the chicken was moist, the spicy sausage flavorful, and the pork also moist and well-seasoned. There was a large variety of salads and vegetable offerings, so you should be able to find several options that appeal. This restaurant is a nice change from the upscale restaurants in and around Copenhagen, and a particularly good option if you are staying in the area. The waterside setting is lovely, especially if you are able to catch the sunset, and the whole atmosphere is one of people just kicking back and having a good time out for dinner with family and friends.
