Sushi Anaba

Sushi Anaba is an experience beyond words. Each dish is an artistic masterpiece prepared with precision. The setting is intimate, with only a few seats around the counter, allowing for a personal experience where you can watch the chef’s meticulous preparation. It’s an experience that transcends a typical meal — Sushi Anaba is truly a must-visit. Words simply can’t do justice to the remarkable journey your palate will experience here.

Fantastic. Greatest Sushi experience so far in Europe. Lovely staff. Wonderful location.Thank you so much for your hospitality. Hope to come back soon.

Wonderful experience. Excellent food, beverage pairing, and service. And incredibly hard to believe I ate at the sushiya Mads worked in in Ginza around the same time he was there. Connections like that always make the world seems so small. Definitely will be back if I find myself in Copenhagen again.

An incredible experience with a delicious tasting menu. The sushi and warm dishes were all complex, fresh and delightful. Impeccable attention to detail, from the interior decor to the food preparation to the greeting when we arrived. Worth it!!

One of the best food experiences I have ever had. Although the price tag is high, it was all worth it. It is a must try maybe once (or twice) in your life. It is that good. We got the menu with everyone else and we were 8 (4x2 pax). Definitely a restaurant I would say live up to my expectations.

Authentic perfection: every other place serving sushi in Denmark will present you with salmon caught 2000 miles from Copenhagen, tuna with highly variable quality and "white fish". Not so at Sushi Anaba: here the fish is carefully sourced in Scandinavia only, and prepared just in front of you. If you want Sushi the Edomae way, as prepared in Tokyo, with every detail explained there's simply no one else in Denmark willing to go the distance. EDIT (Dec 2024): 12th visit before location change. Still fantastic.

Came here in April 2022 and really enjoyed the food here. The chef was incredibly passionate about his creations and it showed. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the non alcoholic pairing. Not sure why Google removed my post and photos when the photos are mine though in the past

Located just at the corner of the building, the entrance is where there is a small court yard outside. The staff were very friendly and greeted us in similar Japanese manner. We had a non alcoholic pairing with the sushi omakase and it worked well. The seafood was very fresh and used a wider variety of fish within Scandinavia. Although some dishes were slightly salty, but it may be catered for the Danish palate. A combination of traditional and contemporary techniques. Highly recommend! 😋🍣

We read this is one of the 50 Best in the world and it exceeded those expectations. We booked online for waitlist at Tatami table and we were confirmed within hours for Friday lunch. It was a truly fantastic experience. Fish so fresh and from the top of the chart. It was an intimate experience with the Danish chef explaining each of the 23 courses. Nice conversation and made everyone feel cheery and comfortable. Once in a lifetime.

Revisited this amazing Japanese restaurant with primarily Scandinavian fish in Nordhavn and it continues to impress from start to end with the best ingredients beautifully presented, made in front of you by the chef Mads Battefeld himself. The service was impeccable throughout the night and the atmosphere is cozy (hyggelig). The main room has 8 guests (low counter) in two seatings per night and is the best selection for couples, whereas the back room looked suitable for a (very) small group. The sushi is in a class of its own.

We got this omakase restaurant recommended by a friend a couple of years ago but haven't had the chance to try until recently. It was hard to get a table and ultimately it came down to luck (or connections maybe) getting a slot. The restaurant is small and sits around 10-12 people at a time, split into a tatami area (4 pax) and the main counter (8 pax I think), and each dining slot is 3 hours. We got seated on a Thursday evening at 8pm. The welcome and service were personal and attentive. Since this is omakasa one doesn't get to choose the food. There is no dinner menu, only a drinks/wine/sake list. We got a total of 20 servings which sounds like a lot, and it was, but the amount was just right - not too much, not too little. We got full but could still walk out. Generally, the quality of the food was very high! From the freshness of the produce, the blend and nuances of the taste experience, and finally to the presentation of each serving, the dining experience was astonishing. Mind you this is NOT California style sushi where one cannot distinguish between the tastes of the servings and everything was up tasting like nori, mayo and deep fried shrimp. Each serving was a distinct and unique experience for the tastebuds. This is definitely a must-try if you are looking for Japanese with a slight Danish/Nordic twist in this part of the world. Sushi Anaba now ranks amongst my top picks in Copenhagen. We visited in July 2022.

Heard from foodie acquaintances this was the best sushi in Copenhagen and I believe it. Focus on high quality ingredients, beautiful plating and interesting flavors combinations as well as incorporating traditional Japanese techniques with local seafood. Favorite bite was Jutland brown shrimp cured in kombu, as sweet as the best amaebi. You expect good langoustine in Denmark but this small brown shrimp blew my mind. Caviar with quail egg and rice dish was another height, was surprised by it, a very creamy and well suited pairing. Also... delicious but guilt-inducing mahogany clams (it's maybe a hundred year old ... but so delicious....)
