Restaurant Zorba I Rønde Syddjurs

25/08/2026: Kjøbstaden is a restaurant located on a side street in the heart of Ebeltoft, making it a bit quieter. The restaurant offers a menu inspired by French cuisine as well as Danish classics. When we arrived, the restaurant was practically empty, despite its huge beer garden and two floors. We sat on the front terrace and were promptly given the concise menu. They had even thought of our dog and promptly provided him with a water bowl. A definite plus! After several days of indulging, we each opted for just one main course. I had a Caesar salad with chicken breast, and my partner chose the Stjernekaster (a type of Danish pastry). Perhaps the Caesar salad wasn't the best choice, but after days of feasting, I wanted something lighter. While the salad was fresh and crisp, and the shaved Parmesan was plentiful, the dressing was very weak and didn't do justice to the amount of salad, making it seem a bit dry. The supposedly crispy chicken was unfortunately only lightly seared and came in small pieces. A whole, seared chicken breast or even a breaded piece of meat would have been a much better alternative. The salad was okay, but definitely nothing special. My own fault? Perhaps I should have ordered the burger like the table next to me, because it looked really good. 😂 The breaded fish was very good, and the crab and smoked salmon were fresh and of good quality. The two sprigs of asparagus, however, were a joke. The amount of vegetables was extremely inadequate and seemed more like an afterthought. Overall, though, we were full and had a very pleasant evening on the restaurant's terrace in the sunshine.
