Tucked away down a small side street, Restaurant Johansens is a beautiful and cozy spot that’s well worth seeking out. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff were incredibly polite and attentive. When the food arrived, each dish was nicely presented and explained in detail.
I had their stjerneskud, which was delicious and generously portioned — I couldn’t have eaten another bite afterwards. My girlfriend ordered the tartare, which she found decent, though not particularly memorable. Another person in our group had the chicken salad, which they said was quite good, while the open-faced potato sandwich turned out to be a bit disappointing, with underwhelming potatoes and a rather bland overall impression.
We were lucky to get a table without a reservation, but I’d recommend booking in advance if you plan to go — it seemed like the kind of place that could get quite busy at times.
All in all, it was a very pleasant dining experience in lovely surroundings. While it may not reach the absolute top tier of gourmet dining, it’s certainly a place I’d recommend for a nice meal in Kolding.

Huge recommendation!
We were so lucky to get a table without a reservation and everybody was very friendly. We had a wonderful evening with incredible food and nice talk with one of the waiters. We will definitely come back the next time we are in Kolding.
Than you again for making our last evening of our Denmark vacation so special ❤️

GREAT evening and dining experience! We luckily snatched the last table and we are so happy we did! I would recommend making a reservation though.
Outstanding service and friendliness by everyone of the staff and absolutely delicious flavour combinations I didn't ever taste before. Every dish was explained in detail and the staff clearly love what they do.
Lively but not loud atmosphere where everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.
We will definitely recommend and visit again the next time we are in or near Kolding. A bit pricey, yes, but outstanding value for the money we paid.

A cozy and intimate restaurant with incredibly friendly and professional staff. The food is of high quality – fresh ingredients, an exciting variety of tartar and fantastic smørrebrød! I will definitely come back.

p.s. The only downside is the parking problem – although there are many spaces, they are usually all taken.
