“The Copenhagen breakfast plate puts Danish meatballs, rye bread and fruit yogurt into one meal, while the salmon combines green-pea stock sauce and a poached egg for a different set of layers. The plates echo the Nordic barn-inspired room, making this a good fit for diners who value atmosphere and want a brunch combination that feels a little different.”

THE STORY

The story behind this place

A Rehe Road Restaurant Shaped by a Denmark Research Trip

The Nordic style of the Rehe branch came from owner Li spending three years preparing for the restaurant and traveling to Denmark for research. From the rustic barn-like room to Danish meatballs and rye bread on the breakfast plate, his interest in Danish daily life and food becomes a theme you can feel while dining on Rehe Road.

Copenhagen Breakfast 2.0

Danish meatballs, pan-fried potatoes and soft scrambled eggs come with lotus-root salad, rye bread and fruit yogurt. Savory items and refreshing sides each have their place, making this a good introduction to the restaurant’s breakfast style.

Scandi Crispy-Skin Salmon Fillet

Salmon is seared for a fragrant crisp skin and paired with potatoes, spinach, broccoli and green-pea stock sauce, plus a poached egg for extra silkiness. A complete main for diners who enjoy rich fish with vegetables.

Green Grape Pumpkin Mousse Yogurt

Sweet-tart green grapes meet pumpkin mousse, mascarpone and cream cheese, alternating fruit freshness with creamy density. A lighter way to end the meal than a rich cake.

METROBITES LOCAL TIP
Save the salmon sauce for the bread

With the Scandi Crispy-Skin Salmon Fillet, break the poached egg so the yolk blends into the green-pea stock sauce, then use the accompanying bread to soak it up and finish the softer flavors left on the plate.

✨ AI Visit Snapshot

SMILE|NORDIC RESTAURANT [ 憲賣|北歐食酒餐廳 ] has a distinctive Nordic direction, with a clean, relaxed character running from the interior design to the way dishes are presented. The room is bright and roomy enough for brunch or a full meal without feeling cramped. The food ranges from breakfast plates and burgers to salmon mains, with dessert and coffee completing the experience. It suits diners looking for a pleasant setting, broad menu choices and enough time to sit and eat slowly.

Uncle’s take: The strength of a place like this is not just good looks. It manages the space, the food and the coffee together, so sitting feels comfortable and the meal still has substance.
Interior and dining atmosphere:The space combines the rustic feel of a Nordic barn with industrial elements and bright natural light, with seating indoors, outdoors and upstairs. Brunch, full meals or coffee can each find their own rhythm here. The dish names and plating are stylish, but the food is not only for photos; breakfast plates, burgers and crispy-skin salmon all arrive as complete portions. Busy periods can still mean a wait—good-looking rooms do not automatically grow another table—so reserve ahead if you want to save time.

● Copenhagen Breakfast 2.0

This breakfast plate is a classic, durable Nordic-style combination: Danish meatballs, crisp lotus-root salad, pan-fried potatoes, French-style scrambled eggs, Nordic rye bread and fruit yogurt. It looks generous without becoming messy. The eggs are soft and smooth with a faint cheese-and-butter aroma, while the potatoes and meatballs are solid fundamentals with restrained seasoning. Salad and yogurt keep the whole plate refreshing even as it remains filling.

● Handmade Burger with Special Lobster Sauce

This burger has strong presence. A thick handmade patty is layered with a proprietary lobster sauce carrying mild heat, fried onion rings and fresh lettuce. The patty is seared crisp outside while staying juicy, giving a substantial bite, and the sauce adds a clearer direction without simply becoming heavy. Golden fries on the side bring a little charred aroma and become especially easy to eat with tartar sauce, making this a practical full-meal choice.

Uncle’s take: The places people truly remember do not make just one pretty plate. They keep the same standard from breakfast to dessert, so you leave wanting to come back for whatever you missed.
● Scandi Crispy-Skin Salmon Fillet

This main is a complete composition: seared crispy-skin salmon sits over pan-fried potatoes, spinach, broccoli, fried lotus-root chips and green-pea stock sauce, with a poached egg and bread alongside. The salmon is browned outside while keeping its fat and moisture, so it stays smooth rather than dry. Break the soft egg and mix the yolk with sauce and vegetables for a gentler bite, then use the bread to soak up what remains and finish the plate neatly.

● Green Grape Pumpkin Mousse Yogurt

This works more like a dessert-style finish. Bright sweet-tart green grapes pair with pumpkin mousse, mascarpone and cream cheese for fine layers of texture. Fruit freshness arrives first, followed gradually by smooth pumpkin and cheese aromas. The overall sweetness stays clean rather than heavy, making it a comfortable finish after a main course.
