Making a list of the top 10 Italian restaurants in Copenhagen is next to impossible, so we've thrown a few more into the pot and zoomed in on some of the city's best.

Besides crispy and juicy pizzas (or ‘pizze’), Copenhagen is packed with authentic Italian restaurants, trattorias and osterias for both everyday evenings and a romantic Saturday night out. Whatever the occasion might be, you can be sure to experience the Italian characteristic uncompromising love for ingredients, flavours and traditions, but also with a touch of experimentation with new, exciting dishes and combinations.

Italian is so much more than pizza

One thing most people can agree on is endless love for pizza - a true Italian favourite. Pizza is something special and can make us happy on even the most dreary rainy day. However, Italian food is much more than pizza and offers many wonderful dishes that will make your mouth water.

The Italian cuisine in Copenhagen offers an exciting, world-class selection that is sure to impress.

This overview is not exhaustive, and new faces are constantly appearing. In addition to the Italian eateries mentioned above, we can also recommend Leo's Pizza, Bevi Bevi, and Bar la Una, all located in Vesterbro, as well as Calma, Paesàno, and Mirabelle in Nørrebro. And of course, the old lady of the Inner City, La Vecchia Signora, along with Rufino Osteria in Christianshavn.
