11/08/2025: I recently visited Mother in Kødbyen, and overall, it was an excellent experience. The standout for me was definitely their cheese pizza, which was rich, creamy, and full of flavor without being overwhelming – a perfect balance that really showcased the quality of their ingredients. Their Margherita was also very good: simple, fresh, and exactly what you’d expect from a classic pizza done well.
The pepperoni pizza, while decent, felt a little underwhelming in comparison. It wasn’t bad by any means, but it lacked the same punch and excitement that the other pizzas delivered. That being said, what truly elevated all of the pizzas was their incredible dough. It had the perfect texture – airy on the inside, with a beautifully charred crust that gave it that authentic wood-fired character. It’s the kind of dough you can happily eat on its own.
It is on the pricier side, which means you naturally expect a high level of quality – and for the most part, Mother delivers on that. Combined with its lively, casual setting in Kødbyen, it’s a great spot for anyone who appreciates well-made, Italian-style pizzas with an unforgettable crust.

I visited Mother in Kødbyen with my girlfriend, and while the pizza itself was quite tasty, the overall experience left a lot to be desired. At 160 DKK per pizza, you expect not only good food but also good service – and unfortunately, the service was disappointing from start to finish.
Despite the restaurant being almost empty, we waited an unnecessarily long time before getting a table. Once seated, no waiter came over to take our order until we actively flagged someone down. When we finally did get service, the waiter seemed neither particularly friendly nor interested, which set a rather unwelcoming tone.
The pizzas were undeniably good – fresh, flavorful, and with a nice charred crust – but the lack of attentiveness and warmth from the staff made it hard to truly enjoy the visit. Sadly, even with great pizza, it wasn’t the kind of dining experience I’d look forward to repeating.
10/08/2025: Fast and efficient service from the moment they took the order, both starters and mains were brought at the same time which could be ok if it's what you are expecting, however no checks after food was brought to the table. Food was delicious but we had to chase waiters for the bill. Overall a really good experience but some improvement regarding service would make it spotless.
