ItalGastro is something of a hidden gem near Nørreport. Here you can enjoy authentic Italian comfort food without the tourist prices, and the place is especially known for its freshly made pasta and quick service. It’s not the kind of place with white tablecloths and fine wines—and that’s exactly why people love it.

4. FABRO

 

Fabro has gradually become something of a Copenhagen classic when it comes to affordable pasta. The concept is ultra-simple: a few dishes, a quick rotation of the menu, and a focus on flavor over fine details. We previously wrote about it in our guide to the best affordable restaurants in Copenhagen. – It’s walk-ins only, and you’ll often have to wait in line, but if the weather’s nice, grab an Aperol and sit outside in the sun while you wait.

Palazzo Diner has become one of the most popular Italian spots in Copenhagen—especially among people who love modern pasta and wine bars with a cool vibe.
