Apropos was a fine restaurant. The food was good. The service was in need of improvement. I had the Risotto with Chicken, my wife had the salmon. Both were good. Dessert was apple pie and cheesecake. Also good.

This is one of those places that looks like it could be mediocre. It’s a big place and it has sort of a corporate or tourist trap look. But, once you’re seated and partake of the drinks and food you realize they know what they’re doing. The service could be faster and more responsive. The wait staff seems to be young and not well trained. The kitchen, however, did s great job on our dishes. I ordered a beef stroganoff dish. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the beef was tender and the sauce tied it all together with a creamy beef-based tang. My wife and our friend ordered the chicken mushroom risotto, which they said was rich, flavorful, full bodied and savory. My wife described it as almost like a chicken pot pie. I should also note they know how to make a really good classic cocktail. I took a chance and ordered an Old Fashioned and it was very nicely mixed. Apropos is located not far from the Central train station. The surrounding neighborhood is a bit hit and miss, but once your here you’ll have a good time. Just don’t be in a hurry because the service is a bit«relaxed.» Big but cozy Outside seating

The restaurant is quaint and clean, but service is inefficiently SLOW; but blamed on being crowded. Maybe, this could almost be acceptable because it was Pride weekend. However, after waiting for over 1 hour, my friend was told her omlette order was not available. Lucky for her she had tomatoe soup appetizers. I ordered nachos as an appetizer, and hamburger with fries along with a Margarita. My friend had a scrumptious garlic bread appetizer. The fries tasted as though the we’re made from scratch, and not at all greasy. Yum! The well done burger was quite tasty with a tasty reddish-orange sauce/condiment. The bun/bread, that I might normally discard tasted like a freshly baked English muffin of sorts that didn’t leave your tummy bloated. The Margarita could have used a little more lime. Oh, although this was a bar/restaurant, restless children were present in this adult like atmosphere. The stairway to the bathroom, are steep, narrow, with a slight spiral. The bathroom is not well-lit, think extreme energy efficient; and one stall was broken with water on the floor. So, the 3 stars captures the meal and the experience. Due to the 1.5 hr delay, upon checking the status, the waitress gifted us a round of coffee.

Took an hour to get the food. The kids fell asleep. Risotto was good. My wife had Greek salad that was a bag of ica-salad mixed with a tiny, dry piece of chicken. My daughter had entrecôte that was burnt in the edges and my sons fried fish looked like it came defrosted out of a box. When I asked for a second glass of wine I got the same Shiraz as before even though I asked for a different kind. The Risotto again though, was good. And the servers were nice and friendly.

Very nice little café for a breakfast. We had the breakfast plate. It was very nicely presented, and tasted awesome. Staff was mostly nice. You should definitely try it for the breakfast!

We came here for dinner on a Friday night when our original place’s kitchen was closing. The atmosphere is lively, the food is good if fairly uninspired, and the service is on par with an Applebee’s in terms of attitude and attention, alternating between frat-house greetings and hate-your-very-existence friendliness. For dinner, we had the risotto and Danish specialty, pariser bøf. The latter was more interesting flavor-wise than the former, but both weren’t representative of the standards you’d expect from the price and high-end vibe the place tries to aim for. Total bill for two with beer/cider was 355DKK(or about $ 55). If you’re looking for a quick dinner late and are in the area, this will do the trick. Otherwise, I’d probably try one of Copenhagen’s other offerings.

Good atmosphere, service and food. I ordered a Greek salad and it wasn’t Greek at all, they only added some feta cheese. However it was a really good salad so nothing to complain. Guess prices are fair for what you get.

Stopped by with my friend for drinks and dessert after a long day of sightseeing. Can’t say for anything else but loved sitting on the sidewalks and given the cool/windy evening the heat lamps kept us toasty and warm. Service was really the best I’ve had so far in Copenhagen, friendly/helpful waitstaff. Chocolate cake(with a side of whipped cream and… sour cream? I guess that’s how they do it in Denmark) was rich and yummy with my Moscato. Pretty decent wine/cocktail menu at decent prices/atmosphere.

Not exactly a traditional Danish menu, but what we had here was good. The menu is a little limited, unfortunately, but they had a couple steak options, a couple burger options, and a couple fish/chicken/pasta options. I went with a steak, thinking that I might be disappointed, but it was quite good. Done properly with a very nice rich wine/mushroom sauce, and served with little cylinders of potato with a crisp outside. Very enjoyable. They also played Michael Jackson pretty much the entire evening. I am not kidding or exaggerating — they basically just plowed through the greatest hits from the moment we came in. So on top of decent food, we got that blast from the past. A little bonus.

Awesome place — spectacular brunch buffet on weekendens! I have never seen such a variety before: whatever you like for brunch, you will find it there! Here are just some examples: scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, chicken wings, meat balls, salmon, salami, 10 different kinds of salads or so, pancakes, fresh fruits, a variety of self-baked bread, cereals, cake, yoghurt, … One juice per person included + coffee all-you-can-drink.

Stopped in for an early dinner. It’s a bistro style set up with a large patio. The food, spaghetti with prawns, peppers and arugula, was very nice. The staff was very friendly and attentive.

Went here on a Friday night. The place was packed and very energetic. This is the center of the«old» red light district in Copenhagen. The ambience is a mixture of bar and cosy food. We had a mixture of burgers and steak. The service was really nice and had just the right level of attention. Service is fast and the food is good quality.

Ended up here after a recommended restaurant had a two hour wait just for the bar… The place was full and very busy. I think I remarked to the waiter that we were packed in there like sardines. Nonetheless, we were able to enjoy a dinner of steak and hamburgers, cooked to our specifications. Also, the waiter was able to get me a cocktail based upon my preferences. I am on a cucumber and vodka kick. I was happy they were able to oblige. The food came out fast despite the crowd and the service was friendly enough. Nothing special about the place and they do know how to cook beef…
