Marchal, Danmark København

The hotel and its history may seem impressive at first: it is a truly iconic place. And yet, once you step through the door, you almost feel at home. The entire team at Marchal shows a kindness that feels genuinely sincere, immediately making you feel welcomed, valued and cared for. In an absolutely magnificent dining room, Mattia and Stefania bring an energy, elegance and warmth that almost make you wish the experience could last longer than just one meal. On the plate, you will find French cuisine executed with great class, precision and rigour. Michelin-starred restaurants can sometimes be criticised for pursuing originality at all costs, while forgetting that a great traditional dish, when perfectly executed, can be far more difficult to achieve — and ultimately far more satisfying. I have had the chance to try many dishes from the menu over several visits, and I have never been disappointed. Antoine’s pâté en croûte is incredible. The chicken with vin jaune, inspired by Chef Alexander’s family traditions, tells far more than just a story on the plate. The turbot is executed with remarkable precision. Every bite is a pleasure. And the desserts are truly excellent. If you are lucky enough to watch the crêpes Suzette being prepared by the chef or by Stefania, it is a wonderful moment that elevates the experience even further. Congratulations to everyone both in the dining room and in the kitchen: Mattia, Stefania, Lorenzo, Loïd, Maja, Elisa, Antoine, as well as all those I have not mentioned who contribute to making this such a wonderful family. And above all, congratulations to Chef Alexander for his humility and personality. Despite the level and prestige of this restaurant, he takes the time to connect with his guests, treat them with genuine respect and share his cuisine with a sincerity that can truly be felt. This is precisely what makes Marchal, in my eyes, so much more than simply a fine-dining experience. It is a restaurant where excellence never creates distance, and where you leave remembering not only the dishes, but also the people who prepared and served them. An experience that, for me, deserves far more than a single Michelin star.

Exceptional Michelin-starred dining in Copenhagen! The service at Marchal was flawless, and the food tasted even better than it looks in the photos. We loved sharing this experience with our audience on our Lucky von A travel vlog. A must-visit for foodies! 🍽️✨

Took their ready menu and the simpler wine package. The dishes were consistently high quality even though a couple at the beginning felt a bit pretentious and contrived. A little misunderstanding in the serving led to occasional downtime and uncoordinated wine/food serving. However, this was compensated by a very professional waiter who towards the end prepared a delicious crepe suzette! Overall a wonderful gastronomic experience!

We had the degustation 6 course menu with both the normal and a vegetarian option. Some of the courses were great, like the Turbot and the Grilled Tenderloin. What stood out was the Beetroot flower. However, the overall experience was a bit underwhelming, especially for Michelin star rated French- Nordic cuisine. The biggest let down was the Signature chocolate caviar surprise, with the Swedish pancakes served cold ( not warm) and soggy ( not crisp). Also expect nothing additional from their service even if its your birthday, anniversary or any other special occasion. Overall will i recommend this, No, will I ever come back to taste anything else on their menu, definitely No.

Elegant and exclusive, but still welcoming. The food was beautifully composed, and the service felt very professional.

We enjoyed both the duck and crepe table side service. The meal was elegantly prepared, the presentation esp. the staff’s explanation of the process was wonderful and engaging, and our family enjoyed the food tremendously. I seldom write reviews and we have gone to our share of excellent restaurants, but overall this was the best, and most memorable dining experience our family has had. Thank you to all of the wonderful Marchal team!

We had an amazing dining experience at Marchal. Every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious, with outstanding flavors and impeccable quality. The Caviar Chocolate dessert was especially memorable—creative, unique, and one of the best desserts we’ve ever had. The service was just as exceptional. Our waitress was incredibly kind, attentive, and very well-mannered, making us feel welcome throughout the evening. A truly outstanding fine dining experience in Copenhagen. We highly recommend Marchal and can’t wait to return.

The experience was all we hoped for. The food was excellent, both in taste and presentation. Our server was super friendly and professional. The team supporting him was, as well. Just a fantastic evening. Hope to be back.

We had a wonderful birthday evening. The restaurant is located on the ground floor of the magnificent Hôtel d'Angleterre building. The welcome, the service, the delicious and creative dishes, the wines, the setting, the tableware—everything was perfect. A fairytale. A huge thank you to the entire team.

Nice setting in the most prestigious hotel in Copenhagen. Correct staff serving accomplished food in this Michelin starred restaurant. 4th visit and it is a joy to return. Wine card has a serious selection of wines.
