Guide Review - Ida Davidsen Copenhagen - Restaurant Review
Ida Davidsen's most popular feature is the menu. More than 250 varieties of smørrebrød (and growing!) are served from behing a long bar where you can see and select the ingredients you want on your sandwich. Then, sit down at one of the wooden tables and enjoy what you (or Ida) created.
At Ida Davidsen's you'll see pictures of famous visitors on the walls and even Danish royalty are regular guests at this informal, much-loved restaurant.
No matter what you'd like on your smørrebrød sandwich (smørrebrød literally means "butter and bread" in Danish), the Ida Davidsen restaurant offers it. You can pick from the long menu or personalize your smørrebrød, e.g. with smoked duck. Ida's delicious "Ritt Bjerregaard" recipe, for example, calls for buttered rye bread, sliced smoked leg of lamb, and scrambled eggs topped with herbs.
When it comes to the prices, Ida Davidsen's restaurant is a little bit more expensive than regular smørrebrød spots in Denmark - but it's worth it. Payment methods accepted here are cash, American Express, Mastercard, Visa.
Advance reservations are highly recommended due to the popularity of this smørrebrød place. You can make reservations by phone or fax (+45 33913655), or just make an online reservation for Ida Davidsen here.
The Ida Davidsen restaurant in Copenhagen is open Monday through Friday from 10:00 to 16:00 (10 am - 4 pm). Unfortunately, they're closed on weekends and holidays and, as a family business, take off the month of July entirely.
