Jordnær Gentofte

I loved this meal more than I can convey so please excuse the fact that my description can’t possibly encompass it. My husband and I travel often specifically to eat good food and sometimes I wonder if we’ve reached the top most limits of deliciousness in our travels. Our dinner at Jordnær helped remind me that there will always be gems of deliciousness around the world to get excited by. The space is stunning and incredibly elegant with a team that’s professional to complement it. It’s so beautiful and the evening feels special as soon as you walk in. I was only the slightest bit worried that there would be some instances of style of substance with the space and dishes being so beautiful (as can sometimes be the case) but there is no risk of that here. The food is unparalleled and easily one of the best meals I’ve ever had. I won’t break down each dish, especially since it changes of course, but I will just say that everything was scrumptious (unsure if I’ve ever even used that word in earnest before), there were flavor combinations that you’ll never have again and that will unlock something within you, you can tell just how much thought and cleverness went behind the construction of each dish, and of course the quality of ingredients was unbelievable. This meal could be served in an alley on a shady street and it would still be one of my favorite meals from flavor alone. The service was also not stuffy and it’s clear they want you to be comfortable (the music showcases that as well). I felt like we were all in it together. Even with a few very minor hiccups (I almost received a dish that was meant for my husband but they remedied it immediately and were very apologetic), you can’t help but feel totally enchanted here. Meeting Tina and Chef Eric was also a highlight of our evening and our whole trip. They’re just honestly so cool and wonderful to talk to. I will always remember this meal and I cannot wait to go back someday! It’s worth every penny (unless you don’t want to have to dream incessantly about it and miss it until you get to go back at some point).

What a fantastic evening it was. All good, wines and service was superb. Friendly and professional employees. It was the best dining experience I have experience

I'm still floating above Greater Copenhagen after eating this divine meal (correction that's underselling, above the Earth is truer to form). This meal taught me things my palate had not previously known and I had to close my eyes on many courses to really savor and relish the beautiful complexity that naturally rolled out of each dish, and brought you to the essence and entirety of each ingredient in interaction with it's ensemble in perfection. Tina mentioned each course on the menu was like a setlist to a concert.... Yet I would argue that is like an all-time artist/ band with hits spanning half a century and you go back and forth with yourself and your mates into the wee hours and the subsequent week which song was to best, to only settle they all were great, and that night will stand the test of time Service was sublime and personal, location and music set the tone remarkably for an ambiance the was casual yet gave the food the sincerity it deserved, and the timing was perfect. We invested in memories and a landmark tonight and will be savoring this night for a long time.

We travelled from Gijón, Spain, to Copenhagen looking for memorable gastronomic experiences, and Jordnær turned out to be not just one of the highlights of our trip, but one of the finest dining experiences of our lives. The quality of the produce is extraordinary. The hamachi with ponzu and wasabi was beautifully precise and balanced; the turbot with foie gras and Banyuls was rich, elegant and unforgettable. And then there was the lobster, appearing in several remarkable interpretations throughout the menu, each completely different from the last. The Kaluga and Baerii caviars were used with remarkable restraint and intelligence, enhancing rather than overpowering the exceptional seafood. King crab, langoustine, scallops, Gillardeau oyster, bluefin tuna… an incredible celebration of the sea. The wines also deserve a special mention. We particularly enjoyed Stokkebye FRANK 2024, a fascinating Danish Solaris with freshness and character; Rotsbank, deep, mineral and elegant; and a magnificent Tokaji Aszú 6 Puttonyos, whose complexity, sweetness and vibrant acidity provided a wonderful finale. But what made the evening even more special was the extraordinary warmth and kindness of the entire team. Service at this level can sometimes feel formal or distant; here it was exactly the opposite: incredibly professional, but also genuine, warm and human. As Spaniards, it was particularly gratifying to discover team members from Ecuador, Peru and Spain and to be able to share part of the experience in our mother tongue. We equally loved our conversations with the rest of the international team, everyone contributed to making us feel genuinely welcome. A particularly memorable moment was being able to visit the kitchen and meet the chef. Seeing where all this extraordinary work happens was a privilege, and our little daughter was absolutely delighted. The way the team treated her throughout the experience made an already exceptional evening even more meaningful for us as a family. And Jordnær goes far beyond flavour. As an artistic photographer, it was impossible for me not to attach some photographs of the small works of art that arrived at our table disguised as food. The attention to colour, shape, texture and composition is extraordinary. Some dishes almost make you hesitate before touching them and then somehow taste even better than they look. Jordnær is a rare combination of exceptional ingredients, extraordinary technique, beautiful wines, artistic presentation and, above all, wonderful people. We came fsearching for great gastronomy; we leave Copenhagen with a memory our family will carry with us for a very long time.

3rd visit in last 3 years. Absolutely one of my favourites in this category, around the world, anywhere. Just fabulous!

Wow, just wow. I could describe the service and food with one word: flawless. When the reviews say Tina and Eric are outstanding in their hospitality, it is entirely true. We even got to tour their kitchen and meet their team. Eric made me laugh throughout the entire meal, and each dish was served by the chef who prepared it, which was such a nice touch. I really enjoyed my experience, and I hope to see you guys in Singapore!

One of the most unique dining experiences there is. Unique surroundings and decor in an older family hotel, but the restaurant delivers on all parameters and fully deserves the 3 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️ from Michelin

We loved this restaurant--we had 18 courses ans there wasnt a single miss. Each course could have been a standout at most other restaurants, and they use top-notch ingredients! Absolutely incredible food matched with a friendly staff. Highly recommend experiencing this restaurant!

There is no words to describe the experience that we had there. Every single dish was a masterpiece, based on the best ingredients and preparation technic. All this is possible because it’s prepared with passion and attention to details! Amazing! ❤️

Me and my chef friend had the pleasure of dining at Jordnær during our trip to Copenhagen, and out of the 8 Michelin restaurants we experienced, this was hands down the best. (we ate at Geranium, Kadeau, Jatak, Koan, Aure, AOC, king hans cellar). Chef Eric and Tina have created a true masterclass in what hospitality should look and feel like from both a culinary and service standpoint. Beyond the obvious fact that there were zero misses in either the food or the steps of service, what stood out most was something many restaurants at this level seem to forget: authenticity, intention, passion, and soul. Every detail felt human and deeply personal. The warmth of the dining room, the personality of the staff, the interaction from the chefs, the music, the pacing, the execution; everything worked together to create an experience that felt alive rather than scripted. As chefs ourselves, it genuinely inspired us. Thank you Chef Eric and thank you Tina for reminding us what this industry can and should be.
