Sælhunden Esbjerg

A really cozy place, delicious food

My husband and I were coming back from watching the black sun starlings (which was an amazing experience) and we were cold and hungry. This cozy restaurant exceeded expectations in its welcome and warmth. I have a life threatening allergy due to alpha-gal allergy I developed from a tick bite. Which means I can’t eat any mammal meat or dairy at this time. Our waiter and the chef went above and beyond to accommodate me and created new additions to the fish dish that were delicious. The fresh beets and potatoes were so amazing as well! I highly recommend!

One of the highlights of our Danish trip. Location, food, friendly welcome and good value made this a memorable visit. The Shooting Star was sublime. Recommended!

We enjoyed a tasty lunch followed by a short walk through Ribe.

A very well-kept little restaurant. The staff are very friendly. The food was very good.

Excellent restaurant with very tasty food.

Simply fantastic! The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was fresh and delicious.

Four of us ate there. I can't judge Danish cuisine in general due to a lack of experience, but for what we got and paid, the food was okay. It may be better than other restaurants. For us, it was pretty average.

Very friendly service, nice restaurant with outdoor seating, we had delicious fish - highly recommended!

A wonderful, cozy little restaurant right on the harbor. Very friendly service. Reservations recommended. We were a family of four and had fish and meat. Everything was delicious. I had sardines as a starter and was initially surprised when they came in a can. But they were delicious with butter and marinated in olive oil. A well-stocked international wine list. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Thanks to the Saelhunden team.
