Overview
Restaurationen was a Danish restaurant located on the corner of Møntergade and Vognmagergade in the Indre By district of Copenhagen. It was established in 1991 by the married couple Lisbeth and Bo Jacobsen. From 1995 to 2004, over two separate periods, the restaurant was awarded one star in the Michelin Guide. The restaurant closed in June 2020. When the Jacobsens opened the restaurant in October 1991, it offered only a single fixed seven-course menu. They also introduced the country's first wine menu. In the spring of 1995, Restaurationen was awarded one Michelin star, which was renewed the following year. The guide's inspectors then felt that the restaurant did not merit a star for two years, before awarding it one again in 1999. Restaurationen remained in the guide until 2004. In 2011, Restaurationen was converted into a brasserie serving Danish cuisine, with room for approximately 50 dining guests. Andreas Rank, who had been employed as head chef since 2007, became a partner and co-owner in 2013. In the autumn of 2014, a private dining room was added. The restaurant closed in June 2020.
