A fresh, inventive, trendy new restaurant in Copenhagen. Cuisine has a unique Mexican/Spanish tapas style with a Scandinavian twist. Tried everything on the menu, which was recently updated in 2020 with in-season fruits and vegetables, several new items, and clever recipe changes.
The bread with sunflower praline and apple hot sauce was a pleasant starter. The tapioca cracker, tuna with salsa is phenomenal. Try the ceviche for a tangy delight different than what you'll get elsewhere. The smoky cauliflower comes with an amazing mole reduction. Gem salad was simple, yet tasty, with local cheese and a bit of seaweed. The gambas (shrimp) are presented well, and flavorful but small (not much meat). This is made up for with the excellent grilled redfish Tikin-Xic, make-it-yourself tacos, with red salsa, refried beans, coriander, lime and homemade tortillas. Several dishes were moderately, and thankfully, spicy. Enough to fill you up or a light meal if you get a few. Dessert is a perfect balance between rich, velvety Grenache and ultra-fluffy, sweet guava sorbet on a crispy waffle biscuit.
Decent beer and wine selection. I tried the 2016 Ritual Pinot Noir from Chile, but there is also a wine pairing that I will try next time to complete the experience.
Staff is professional and friendly. Ambiance is young, inviting and simple. Place was busy (on a Wednesday) and rather small, so I was fortunate to get a spot at the bar as a walk-in. I recommend getting no before they decide to increase prices and you need weeks or months for a reservation. Kudos!
