A lovely old Inn right in the middle of Denmark , we are open 7 days a week all year around - we have a Café and a Restaurant

We went there with friends. Great cozy location! Super friendly staff. The food is absolutely delicious and high standard . I definitely recommend going there. But bring a lot of money, since it's very expensive. The price makes up for the food though!:)

Went in to this restaurant for a late lunch. We went in because we saw : Gravad Laks (lightly cold smoked salmon) on the menu book outside the resto. The Resto itself looks ancient from the outside. And when you went in, it looks even more ancient, with lots of beautiful old ornaments. However you will be amazed what you will find further.
Food......amazing. The price you pay match with the service given. This resto offers fine dining. Food wise: amazing. We loved our éntree which is red half cold smoked Salmon. It was perfectly done, tender meat and not salty.
Main dishes was Stjerneskud (shooting star), it's actually a fish dishes consisted of fish fritter with a light batterred, steamed flat fish and smoked salmon (but different from the above smoked salmon) presented with some greens and bread. The taste of the fried battered fish was amazing. But each type of fish had distinctive taste, except the smoked salmon.
Overall it's a fine delicate and delightful lunch ever we have in Odense.

One of the most famous inns in Denmark offers wonderful accommodation in very comfy rooms and lovely views to the sea.
The extra benefit is the wonderful restaurant that serves you excellent food prepared with local ingredients, much from their own garden.
The service is marvelous, constantly wishing you the very best experience, which is easily achieved due to beautiful and large rooms, ranging from the marvelous entrance to the bar and fireplace further on to several rooms in the back, where you are served an excellent breakfast and even larger rooms for the ultimate dining experience, during summer with a fantastic view to the sea through enormous windows from floor to ceiling.
For my Mothers 75 years birthday we were served the Hallundsbæk 6 courses almanac menu, very interesting and tasteful. The menu varies throughout season. This week we were offered very nice lumpfish row followed by a brilliant serving of fish, wonderful duck, perfect pigeon, a varied selection of cheese (the least impressive part, but there were plenty to choose from) and a great dessert combination. The homemade bread, especially the buns made with malt, honey and cocoa – with the honey and cocoa also being ingredients in one of the two butter combinations (the other traditional and lovely salted butter) was a creation made in heaven.
If you stay overnight, you will have another challenge the following morning finding empty spots in your stomach for a great breakfast presentation.
All combined leads you to wonder why Michelin hasn’t favored this restaurant with more than a recommendation by now, but all you good Trip Advisor readers should flock here. An experience you will never forget, is waiting for you.

Efficient yet discrete and pleasant service. Creative and extremely well tasting fish dishes and great dessert with a pretty perfect match of wines in the wine menu designed for these dishes.
Amazing location out to the water making for the perfect dinner atmosphere.
We arrived before the sun set and could watch as the water became dark and all the lights reflected in the water created a magical atmosphere.
Additionally my wife much appreciated that ir is possible to order a 1/2 wine menu with 1/2 a glass of wine per dish.

We were here, as many of the reviewers, with a tour group for the Christmas feast dinner. I was quite impressed with the quality of all dishes especially the pork. Many of us went back for seconds. Well done and service and hospitality was super.

Whenever I'm in Odense for business, I try to get a table in this great restaurant which is not always easy given its popularity... but last night I was able! Their menu by design is limited in terms of choices but it always delivers! Last night I had wild mushrooms in a cream sauce, sole, and coq au vin... all excellently prepared and presented beautifully by Camilla, the one woman wonder of the kitchen. Martin took very good care of the front of the house.... I'm just so impressed with the fact that just 2 people can deliver such a culinary experience. Looking forward already to my next trip to Odense and No. 61

Hungry after a long day of sightseeing, we found this place and got lucky. Great bistro type menu, it costs but ample portions. We had a great steak frites, and local beer. It was crowded with happy people, on an otherwise quiet summer evening in Odense. Parking is found very close.

Third time around and I still love it. The atmosphere is extraordinary. The food well prepared and very tasty. We had four courses and no room for desserts or coffee. Maybe they were under staffed this night but the service could have been more attentive. But still a recommendable experience. I will come back.

Gourmet Burgers in Odense!
Reviewed By Stephanie L - Sudbury, Canada
The burgers are so good, there are around 6 to choose from and they're all really well thought out. They have a sliders menu which rotates which 3 you get. The fries are large and serve 2 people. All the dips for the fries are really good. It's a nice looking, modern place, with really nice staff.
