The Ambiance: Ekte London Reviews

"When you step inside Ekte Nordic Kitchen, you'll be enveloped in a minimalist yet elegant atmosphere.

The dining counter overlooks the open kitchen, and the outdoor terrace offers a cosy ambience complete with heaters and blankets. Whether inside or outside, this place provides the perfect environment for a relaxed meal."

The Menu

“One of the signature dishes of Ekte Nordic Kitchen is the Smørrebrød - classic Danish open sandwiches with a variety of toppings served on house-baked sourdough rye bread. The menu has a good balance of fish, meat, and vegetarian options making it an excellent choice for groups. Personal favourites include the Fried Plaice, Prawns & Remoulade, which is a delicious mix of crispy fried fish and creamy remoulade sauce. If you're a seafood lover, don't miss out on the London Smoked Salmon with lemon zest, capers, and dill; it's a true delight.”

More Dishes: Ekte London Reviews

“Another must-try dish is the Frikadeller, which are Scandinavian meatballs with a twist. This dish includes Lingonberries & Pickled Cucumber which provide a delightful balance of sweetness and acidity. Perfect for sharing, it's a great addition to any meal. Vegetarians aren't left out as there are plenty of options including Grated Beetroot, Apple, Horseradish & Celery, Boiled Egg and New Potatoes, Smoked Mayonnaise, Capers & Crisp Shallots.”

The Service

“There's no doubt that Ekte Nordic Kitchen delivers on customer service. The staff members are attentive, and they go above and beyond to accommodate their diners' needs, clean up empty plates quickly, and answer any questions about the menu. The only thing that might disappoint someone is the food's tempo - some diners think it takes a little while before the dishes are served on the table, but that is a minor downside compared to overall service quality.”

Small bites for sharing: Ekte London Reviews

“In addition to the main dishes, Ekte Nordic Kitchen also offers a selection of small bites that are perfect for sharing with friends or family. I particularly enjoyed the organic sourdough bread with whipped brown butter, which was so moreish I ordered a second helping without hesitation. These smaller dishes are also a great way to sample a variety of different flavours and get a taste of Nordic cuisine.”
