Great place in the heart of Copenhagen. Always buzzing with interesting people and a fantastic atmosphere. This used to be a landmark in Copenhagen when it was located in Kronprinsensgade but it har reopened and is now more of a combination of French bistro and American diner. Super trandy spot and you need a reservation in the weekend

A hidden gem in CPH. Food was deli, service was friendly and surroundings look great. For us with a child it was perfect, we could fit our stroller and they have a changing room in the toilette. Would recommend and go back 10/10!

I tried the new Sommersko, better than the old one, where it was almost impossible to the attention of the waiters. This has changed, the food was good too.

Strolled in at 8 pm, hunting for drinks and snacks. The place is fresh after its renovation. The vibe? Upbeat. The crowd? Was catchy and nice. Espresso martinis with a chocolate twist - a pleasant/weird surprise. The food hit the right spot, and I'm eager to explore the full menu. The service was friendly and funny give the material we provided them.

Beautiful experience. Amazing atmosphere and great food. The grilled beef was to die for. Service was fantastic. Our waiter Hector was professional and very kind, always checking on us with a smile. I certainly recommend this place. Thanks Hector . And of course the chef.

An historical restaurant with a lot of charm. Situated in the center of Copenhagen, a few steps from the famous Nyhavn, you could decide to stop there for relaxing, have lunch or dinner
