Høst on Postcard

"A busy neighbourhood restaurant, Høst offers an enjoyable atmosphere and good value cooking. Dishes are modern, boldly flavoured and visually impressive, and the set menus come with lots of extra surprises. Nordic fish and shellfish feature largely, while the vegetarian choices seldom fail to please." - Michelin Inspector

"Rustic Design at Its Best This place is an interesting blend. In the recent Danish tradition, it is a partnership between a number of different creative types. This time, those personalities happen to be design-oriented people from the food, interior design, and dinnerware design communities. This restaurant has focused completely on providing a rich, intensely rustic experience that embodies modern trends in both the New Nordic cuisine movement and Danish design. Recent offerings include flounder with fried chicken skin and sauce made from fermented asparagus and grilled lobster with juniper pancake and pointed cabbage. Photo: Höst."

I really wish I understood the hype around this restaurant, but unfortunately, I don't. We arrived early, and the staff was kind enough to seat us ahead of our reservation. We started with their elderflower cocktail, which was brilliantly refreshing. Our first surprise was a dish of waffles with a shrimp-topped dip. Since I don't eat shrimp, the waiter graciously brought me a version of the dip without it, and it was absolutely delicious. Next came the tasting menu. I have to say, the highlights for me were the leek and meat dishes. The meat was perfectly cooked, and the leek dish delivered an incredible burst of flavor. Unfortunately, the rest of the dishes didn't leave much of an impression. One major downside was the pacing of the courses--it took an inordinate amount of time to complete the meal. We ended up spending over three and a half hours at the restaurant, and by the end, we were ready to just go home. Overall, while it was an interesting experience, but I don't think I'd return.

I was blown away with the magnificent service and attention to detail by the staff. The 3 course meal was perfect and included additional surprises throughout the night. It is hard to find something this unique and good in the United States. I believe this is a must visit when coming from the US and looking for a true Scandinavian meal.

This was such a great foodie experience! We got the “An evening at Høst” 3 course menu with the wine pairing and aperitif (plus 2 surprise dishes!). The drinks were all delicious, plentiful and well chosen for with each meal. Scallops and stuffed chicken were our favourite dishes. Service was great, the restaurant had really lovely decor. We left absolutely stuffed but with very happy bellies. Found this restaurant through the Topjaw video!

I have dreamed about coming to this restaurant for a while and I have to say I am incredibly satisfied. The food was lovely, so inventive, all the flavors were new and felt seasonal which is the magic of these kinds of restaurants. The blue mussel soup and the caramel pear course were particular highlights. They accommodated dietary restrictions without any issue, were knowledgeable and kind. The surprise courses made the meal so much better. Thank you so much!

We had a wonderful New Year’s dinner here! The cozy environment made it a perfect spot for the occasion. Despite being very busy, the waitstaff were incredibly friendly and took the time to explain every dish in detail, which we really appreciated.The highlight of the meal was the chicken with spinach and mushrooms — it was absolutely delicious! A fantastic dining experience overall

I was traveling to Copenhagen from the United States and went to this restaurant with a large group after a wedding. The atmosphere is charming and rustic, and felt very inviting. we were seated at a very long table that accommodated our entire party that felt very intimate and private. The food was a series of small, artistically crafted dishes, giving a complete meal, but in interesting, pleasing portions. Each round of food felt like a unique culinary experience, and our group enjoyed tasting each thing. The food and its presentation became a topic of discussion with each because it was so well done. it is not a wonder why this restaurant is Michelin rated and if I’m in Copenhagen again, I would definitely look to repeat.

Høst provided one of the most memorable dining experiences in Copenhagen. I got the five-course menu and enjoyed every dish. The flavors were nicely balanced. Nothing was overwhelming! The interior design has both modern vibe and rustic charm, creating a cosy atmosphere. The staff were attentive without being intrusive. Their wine recommendation was on point This is a restaurant where every detail is considered from the food to the ambiance. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Copenhagen.
