Thorvald Restaurant Review: Average Dining Experience in Vedbæk

Thorvald restaurant in Vedbæk receives a rating of three and a half stars, indicating an average dining experience with both positive and negative aspects. The reviewer highlights the fine service and some successful dishes, but notes that not everything was perfect. The restaurant is located in premises previously occupied by Nautilus, offering views of the Øresund and a large terrace.

The menu at Thorvald is designed to appeal to a wide range of tastes, featuring classic dishes such as tartare, moules, shrimp, carpaccio, pasta, and various steaks. The reviewer expressed disappointment with the lack of adventurous options on the menu.

Appetizers with Provençal influences were a highlight, including a tasty pissaladière (Provençal pizza) and fried eggplant with rosemary, garlic, and a brie-based sauce. However, the shrimp appetizer was less impressive.

The wine list, while sourced from a single importer, offers a reasonably good selection at reasonable prices. A bottle of Bourgogne Blanc was considered a good value.

The spaghetti with vodka and caviar was a disappointment. The reviewer found the vodka unnecessary and the caviar under-dosed.

The bouillabaisse, a traditional Provençal fish soup, was well-received, with a dense and deep flavor and traditional toppings.

The onglet steak was tender but the side dishes of potatoes, onions, and red wine sauce were unremarkable, particularly the undercooked potatoes.

Desserts were a mixed bag. The lemon tart with crème fraîche was excellent, while the vanilla ice cream was grainy and crystallized.

The reviewer observed that the restaurant emptied out relatively early, even on a Saturday night, which is typical for the area.
