Restaurant Emil Aalborg

This was our second visit to EMIL - and still can't put a finger on the food, absolutely value for money. Service, on the other hand, is very young and untrained, and it is quite clear that explanations about food and wine are learned parrot talk. We ordered Store Emil with a wine menu. The recommendation is to skip the wine menu and buy glasses or bottles from the menu. What does a glass of beer do in a wine menu? And a natural wine with such a special (unpleasant) smell and taste that even the waiter told us that it 'often split the waters' - so change it! The story of recycling cutlery is still the same - we want to save water and protect the environment.... Why do you have such small towels in the toilets that have to be washed after each person?? The music may not be suitable for a fish restaurant, but it is nice that Minds Of 99's EMIL runs in rotation, and is played four or five times during the evening. The conclusion is - Good and nice food, polite but untrained staff, overpriced and weak wine menu... so it will probably be a while before we try again.

Super good restaurant experience! When you take the raw price of seafood into account, I think 550 for the large menu is an extremely fair price. One small thing I want to highlight that matters to me: there was plenty of butter for the bread! 😄 I have rarely left a restaurant as full as here - it usually takes a lot. As several others point out, a low-hanging fruit compared to improvement would be to replace the cutlery, either with each new dish or once in a while along the way. Personally, it doesn't mean much to me - and it might mean a higher price, as it requires a little extra to have to change at all the tables all the time. Now I don't know if the place is even interested in Michelin stars, but it is undoubtedly something that will drag down such, any aspirations, which if so is a bit of a shame, because in my eyes the food is very close to the level of 1-star restaurants. But that does not change the fact that it is a highly recommendable restaurant that is clearly among the best in town!

Definitely worth a visit. Delicious food and good guidance for choosing wine. Totally good style of the boss to come and drink a farewell shorts as promised😀

The food was fantastically good. The service, not so competent. The premises are characterized by a young chef who started the place and chose to save a little on the interior. I really like that, rather a little less and he doesn't get into too much debt and will be there in 5 years too. All recommendations from here.

Another fantastic experience. Love all the different flavors you can put together

Been there once before, but this time was significantly better, thanks for this time Emil👍🤗.

Nice fish in a new way. Not the biggest portions. Super good bread

Super delicious food, my daughter actually thinks it's the best she's ever had in a restaurant and she's tried a few different ones. Lots of flavour, adequate portions, nicely decorated. Fast and friendly service, good presentation of the food, although the presentation of the red wine could well be a little better. Certainly not the last time we eat at Emil

Delicious small servings, reasonable prices, good service. Very delicious bread (albeit on the salty side).

One of Aalborg's best restaurants, which really surprises and is far better than several of its seemingly like-minded competitors. Store Emil can be recommended and super exciting dishes.
