JATAK København

We came in curious but also not knowing quite what to expect. But from the moment we stepped in, something in the atmosphere made it clear: you can relax now. Even though the restaurant was full and lively, with music and chatter in the air, there was a calmness underneath, this quiet, concentrated presence from the team that made us feel so deeply held. Sitting at the bar, we got to witness the craft up close: the attentive, gentle rhythm of the kitchen, the way each person moved with care and purpose. What really struck us was the humility across the whole team. From the head chef to the folks on the line, everyone was kind, grounded, generous. No ego - just real joy in the work, and a clear sense that they wanted the food to speak for itself. And it did. The dishes were simply stunning. Well balanced: creative and surprising, but never trying too hard. So often, “inventive” food sacrifices taste for concept, but here every bite was actually delicious. Textures that made us close our eyes. Flavors we’ve never tasted in quite this way that made us smile. Even though the portions were small, we left completely satisfied: feeling both nourished as well as very full. The tempo of the evening deserves a special mention. Dishes arrived in a rhythm that felt… attuned. Not rushed, not dragging. Just right. That pacing was part of what allowed the whole experience to unfold with so much ease. We felt spacious and cared for. The service was warm, thoughtful, and responsive. Our group had a few dietary requests (someone pescetarian, someone avoiding certain sauces) and each dish came out clearly tailored, remembered, and our preferences respected - without ever being made a fuss over. This meal was absolutely yummy in a way that felt incredibly intentional. Very much appreciated and recommend. and don’t miss out on sitting on the bar to enjoy watching it all unfold!

Fantastic meal here summer of 2024 that I’ll never forget. Service was excellent!

This was just outrageously good. Though the flavours were totally unique, it really felt like eating at a Cantonese restaurant, where everything was delicate and showcased the ingredients used in a really considered way. A highlight was the rabbit dish, which involved an immense amount of labour but the outcome was a deceptively simple dish that delivered on all the best parts of eating a rabbit and none of the bad. The hindsholm pork broth + char siu, Norwegian scallop and Fjord shrimp were also highlights among a meal that really didn’t miss on any dish. Not to mention that the service was super personable, engaged and worked hard to enhance our time there. This was easily a top 3 meal we’ve had in Europe and I wouldn’t hesitate to come back, knowing that their seasonal approach would probably deliver an exceptional but entirely different experience next time.

One of the better tasting menus we have experienced. Yes please!

Super cool atmosphere, service and tasty food. We went there really by coincidence and we couldn’t be happier. The restaurant has a great vibe and the food was just delicious. One of the things we liked the most is how the serve you two to three different ways to prepare the main dishes with completely different flavours but the same main ingredient being either lobster or chicken. We found that not only pretty original and sustainable but also surprising as the difference it can make in the taste. 100% recommended to go there, I am sure it won’t disappoint you.

Jatak is a standout restaurant that offers a well-curated menu with bold flavors, high-quality ingredients, and beautifully presented dishes. The ambiance is intimate yet stylish, making it ideal for both casual outings and special occasions. Service is attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall dining experience. While the prices may be on the higher side, the exceptional food, thoughtful presentation, and warm hospitality make Jatak well worth a visit.

What are wonderful place and nice people😁 I really recommend you to visit and feel the same as I did.. Thanks so much

It was ok. We had a duck dish and an apple dessert dish that were really good, but overall the experience was just ok. Nothing was amazing. The wine pairing was fine, the dessert wine yummy. The pike dish didn’t work for me. Overall the quality versus price was on the low side for me.

Hands down my new favourite restaurant! I don’t even know where to begin with this menu — it went beyond every expectation I had! Every note of praise is heavily deserved for this kitchen, staff and restaurant. Cannot wait to try another one of their menus one day!
