Staff were friendly and attentive the whole time we were there. Bright open space, relaxed atmosphere. Food was incredible, some interesting flavour combinations that worked so well. The herring ones were our favourite. Beautiful and fresh food
I’ve wanted to come here for dinner for some time and I am so glad that I did. My partner and I had the best Scandinavian food here.
The service was excellent throughout the night. We initial started w a Akvavit Board which was a flight of mini smorrebrod, and matching akvavit. OMGosh this was spectacular. The drinks were delicious and the matching food, amazing!!
For mains we had a beef cheek, which just melted in my mouth. Just perfect.
The pork was delicious and the skin was crispy. Yummo! The heirloom carrots were still crunchy and really tasty.
The aranchini balls were yummy, and the meatballs were delicious and they came with a nice slice of picked cucumber.
My boilermaker came with a beer, a akvavit and a mini smorrebrod. Once again this was soo good, and the whole night was just fantastic.
If you haven’t been here this place is an absolute must visit, although they only do dinner Wednesday to First nights.
I am definitely going back. This place was one of my highlights of 2020!
My friend had a wedding here and omg it's such a beautiful venue and didn't need much decor to make it nicer.
The food was also really nice too, unfortunately I don't have the names of the dishes but I had a salmon and it was cooked to perfection! Love the lemon meringue tart dessert too!

What an awesome find this was, totally satisfying my craving for smørrebrød, a Danish open sandwhich on a slice of dense, lightly sweet rye bread.
*Dild Sild! Oh the marinated herring! This is what I was craving for - I could have had 5 of these. The herring is marinated and is still firm, juicy, lightly sweet and not overly fishy. The pickled red onions offset the herring with a beautifully sweet acidity.
*Bla Ost - The blue cheese has a light flavour, dense but still crumbly. It's not overly powerful as to punch you in the mouth with a week-old sock like some blues do. The beetroot is soft and provides an earthy freshness. The onions are literally blow torched on the surface and provides a bite of smokiness.
*Forloren Hare - a slice of meatloaf with a crown of onion and blackcurrant chutney. You really need a bit of fruity chutney with each bite, as the meatloaf can be a little dry and heavy.
Denmark House is actually a members club and it has that exclusive feel, but they are open to the public. Don't feel intimidated if you haven't been - just head up the lifts to the third floor and you're greeted with minimalist design and large windows that let in natural light into the large dining room.

Obsessed with this spot, which is part restaurant and part social club. I went for dinner one evening and was surprised to see that there weren't many vegetarian options despite what I saw on the online menu, but the staff were willing to accommodate. I started with an akvavit flight paired with mini open faced sandwiches. For just $24, the flight felt like great value and was paired perfectly. I also drank a Mikeller beer which is pricey, but one of my favourite breweries and well worth the price. My main dish was the only veggie option, the vegetarian smørrebrød. Luckily, it was a bit different than what I got in the flight. It's at once fresh but also heavy, featuring raw fruit and veg as well as hard boiled eggs and a mayo-coated salad. It's a bit of an odd combo, but works surprisingly well together. My partner also had great things to say about the pork and potato dish. The space is a bit odd as well but in a really novel and pleasant way. It feels like a function hall and is a mix of cosy and minimalist and has ample room for groups.

I’m blessed to be surrounded by good coffee in the queen/bourke street area. Love that the people here are friendly and offers you soda-esque water while waiting. Ordered a skinny flat white - thought it was really good and delicious (has a nutty flavour). One of the better coffee places in the area - although the cafe faces stiff competition, it’s well-positioned to thrive with good service and great coffee. Haven’t tried the pastries - would love to explore that option next.
A very nice to place to taste danish cuisine. Recommended to book the table as the restaurant is always booked especially on Fridays.
People service here are very nice and polite. You might expect a delay in your food serving, but that gets compensated by the tasty food they serve.
Suggested: go for Akvait and danish wine's. Thry are next level
When the restaurant gets it so right, you have to physically restrain yourself from jumping for joy and running around hugging the staff…
The quality of produce is so squeaky clean, masticating each smørrebrød feels like an honour.
For the carb-fearing zealots, the rye bread on each dish is thinly sliced, ensuring the eclectic toppings remain the hero, with no threat of dastardly demise into the depths of gluten hell. (GF/Paleo is also available, FYI).
Three to five open sandwiches per person is the breezy recommendation and playing it coy, I went for the minimum - enough to put a spark in my step for traipsing to the next meeting.

As soon as you walk in you will notice how clean it is inside, the staff were very nice. I ordered the "Feed Me Danish" for lunch. I got 5 open sandwiches, a crumbed Rockling, fried salmon, poached chicken, seared beef and tomato and egg. They were all so delicious and I can't pick a favourite. I also ordered a little Danish pastry for after lunch which was like magic, the pastry itself was so light and crisp and fluffy and just incredible, it was filled with a lovely warm raspberry jam. I could have easily eaten a dozen of them. I would 100% come back, there is such great service and ambiance. The food was so fresh and amazing. next time though I will definitely try to herring.
Denmark House is a stylish setting that provides pretty decent Danish food, as authentic as can be I'm told! They just released the Christmas beer brew also. If you haven't Youtubed this phenomena yet then you should. All the breweries give out free beer and people get rather happy on the streets..
Back to Denmark House - the service is quick and we tried a variety of dishes. Highlights: tartlets were good, but kind of luke warm. The shooting star was on point, and the pork belly was perfectly cooked. Don't forget to try the the Dream cake. Lowlights: Not sure how I feel about the caramalised potatoes but I think it's just me!
