Restaurant Frank combines refined bistro cuisine, international flavors, and one of Copenhagen’s most impressive wine lists in an elegant yet relaxed setting.
Since 2017, Restaurant Frank has been regarded as one of Copenhagen’s leading luxury bistros and a destination that truly delivers value for money. It remains so today, now at a new address close to the original location, near Kongens Nytorv. The new space adds another layer to the experience. Large windows open towards the street, creating a lively connection with the city outside. Inside, white tablecloths, warm tones, and elegant details give the room a comforting yet refined atmosphere.
Head Chef Anders Strier presents elegant bistro cuisine inspired by both the Mediterranean and Asia, particularly Japan. He also adds other international touches, for example in his deep-fried Gillardeau oyster topped with Sichuan pepper, Japanese mayonnaise, and red grapefruit. He also dresses oysters with marinades featuring mezcal, makrut lime, and Madagascar pepper.
Guests may choose à la carte or a five-course menu priced at DKK 675. From the à la carte options, the ceviche of dorade with grapefruit, fennel, caper berries, and bee pollen was vibrant and refreshing. The risotto with paleta mangalica (shoulder cut of pork), Marsala, and winter truffle delivered concentrated umami depth.
For dessert, a lemon posset with olive oil sorbet, citrus salad, and Champagne provided a palate-cleansing finish.
The wine list is exceptionally extensive for a mid-priced bistro. Many selections, particularly from Burgundy, are rarely available elsewhere, and pricing remains below average. For serious wine enthusiasts, Frank is among Copenhagen’s strongest addresses.
