De bedste restauranter i Syddanmark

31/07/2026: Was supposed to have a pizza with garlic, the garlic was in a plastic box on the side that didn't close tightly. So there was this incredibly clammy garlic oil that got on everything and your hands STINK afterwards. Not just from garlic but from an almost vomit-like smell, like it was too old. And it's impossible to get it off your hands because if you sweat a little, it comes out again.. plus the smell. Incredibly dingy restaurant on top of that.

17/07/2026: Lousy quality. Absolutely the cheapest and worst ingredients in their food. Find somewhere else

30/08/2026: Ordered from here on their website. Food did not arrive on time. OK, sometimes things happen. When I called to talk to them, they hung up on me.

03/08/2026: My husband and I each had a sloppy cheeseburger in Sønderborg yesterday. I sat there wondering if we should even eat them, and we shouldn't have. Last night we both felt bad and still do. We won't be going there again.

15/07/2026: Really a shameful place. Inedible dry fries that seemed to have been reheated. They were dry, half-cold and stuck together. The burger buns were dry as cardboard and fell apart.

17/07/2026: They forget things on pizzas, they forget pizzas and forget to change money. You have to go back where they try to avoid giving you the money back. Overall it's just a crappy experience

15/07/2026: Ordered for 183 kr got food that tasted of pure salt and the board was completely soaked, they refused to help or cooperate. 0 out of 5 stars would never recommend them to anyone.

18/08/2026: Thanks for once again good food💯 Always fresh ingredients and good service. Good filling and always get what I order and I just want to say congratulations to the new owner. You are super nice and make just as good pizzas and kebab mix as the previous owner😃 will definitely come again. Regards sami

13/08/2026: Very very very expensive prices and extremely small amounts of food. I have never experienced waiting so long for so little food. Really a shame. Very small durum and a pizza that a 5 year old can barely get enough of. Practice

29/08/2026: Dining at Pirates' Inn was a disappointment. It's worth noting that the food is very tasty and beautifully presented; the salads, meats, potatoes, grains, and ice cream are all of high quality. However, finding the exact same menu for four consecutive nights is unacceptable for a hotel of this category and price. Furthermore, charging exorbitant prices for drinks separately is a serious mistake. Due to the lack of variety and the extra costs, I don't recommend booking the buffet or the all-inclusive dinner at the hotel; eating out is much better and offers more variety.

21/08/2026: After reading many poor reviews, we had low expectations; we just wanted to finally eat something, as nearby restaurants are very expensive and the portions are small. We were pleasantly surprised. The food was delicious (especially the salmon and roasted meats with a choice of two sauces), the kids also found their favorites (nuggets, meatballs, Lego fries, pizza), and we finished the meal with delicious homemade ice cream with a nice selection of toppings.

16/08/2025: What a mess… In the middle of peak season, 7:40 pm… No more pizza dough… How stupid can you be? We were really looking forward to it and were hungry… Hopefully we can find another open restaurant now, this one is supposed to take orders until 9 pm…

14/08/2025: Self-service (which we'll probably encounter elsewhere too) was easy. Choose your pizza, pay, and they'll call you when your food is ready. The pizza was good.

07/09/2026: It is expensieve, but the food quality is really great. This is the best place to eat in legoland.

27/08/2026: The food was very poor. The soft drinks (the syrup content seemed almost excessive) were terrible. There was no dessert or coffee. For the high price, we as a family definitely cannot recommend it.

29/11/2025: What a terrible organization. The check-in desk simply says you don't need a reservation, so I arrive at 5:30 PM with my happy face and a five-year-old, and of course, everything is full until 8:30 PM. How can you manage to communicate so poorly within one location? Absolutely not customer-friendly. You're standing there for nothing. Disappointing.

05/11/2025: I'm not sure why this restaurant has such bad reviews? I think the food is good quality. I prefer the a la carte menu to the previous buffet format. Unlike Legoland hotel restaurants in other countries, this one appears to cook everything from scratch

02/08/2026: We were a family of 4 and got a snack basket, 2 x steak bearnaise, 1 beef/bacon burger, fish fillet with fries and desserts. The service was friendly. Got a basket of bread and pesto before the main courses, which was nice. It's not like "the old days" but the food was okay. The steaks were a bit small, but well-cooked. The garnish was fried root vegetables and microgreens, which is also more delicious than a peeled tomato and boiled vegetable. The burger was big and good. The fish fillets were unfortunately mushy, and had been left for too long. The bearnaise sauce did not live up to expectations - we don't think it tasted that much of bearnaise and was too thin, but that's a matter of taste. We sat so close to them at the table next to us that you could hear each other's conversation. Random and sloppy deco on the walls, which doesn't really fit together and contributes to a cozy atmosphere. All in all okay/mediocre - but for the price you can find several places in Esbjerg with the same menu and better quality. If they are going to differentiate themselves from the competition, they should probably stick to the old concept of beuf tournedos/English steak with bearnaise that sticks to the fork, grandma greens xl and salad with dressing.

31/07/2026: Unfortunately, I didn't have a particularly good first experience at the new "old" Gjesing Bistro. The service seemed disorganized. The young employee behind the counter seemed very uncertain and didn't have everything under control, which gave a somewhat messy first impression. The food also didn't live up to expectations. I was given a very large portion of peas, far more than you can realistically eat - which felt like unnecessary food waste. At the same time, salad came with the other dishes, without it being clearly stated, so this was not eaten either. I also specifically asked if there was tomato in my dish, as I am allergic. I was told that there was no tomato, but when the food was served, there was still a tomato on top. I chose to peel it myself and take an allergy pill, but that meant that I had to do without capers, lemon and other accessories. I had hoped for at least new accessories without contact with the tomato, but this was not offered. The disappointment is only made worse by the fact that the place has been marketed as being "like the old days". If you have experienced the previous quality, the new version unfortunately does not live up to expectations at all. In my experience, there is a big difference between the promises that are marketed and the experience I had :( All in all, the visit was unfortunately a disappointment. In my opinion, there is room for improvement in terms of service, organization, quality and handling of allergens. I hope the place returns to the level that many remember from before, then I will probably give them another chance, but now there is not much pull in wanting to go back.

28/08/2026: 16.08.26 Manager doesn’t care about customer service, buffet food stays still for too long. 1 hr of bowling means 55 minutes. Never come back.

18/08/2026: Nice selection and tender meat, all in all delicious and super service-minded staff

03/04/2026: Several dishes were half cold And several bowls were missing

06/03/2026: Early bird dinner, blissful 17-18 after 18.00 the noise level raised to high

08/03/2026: My son had lunch and it was at Haarby Grillen. Excellent. There is also seating outside

23/03/2026: Way too late delivery and poor pizza. Done with that place.

21/03/2026: Your best pizza in all of Sønderborg

03/08/2026: Fast preparation and friendly staff

30/07/2026: Incredibly tasty and great value for money, and watch out for ordering a large pizza; the XL is really big but exceptionally delicious.
