2 mexican places in Copenhagen we have eaten in, sorted by editor score. All cuisines in Copenhagen | Mexican across every city.

Copenhagen's Mexican scene is shaped almost single-handedly by Rosio Sanchez, a former noma chef who brought hand-pressed tortillas and a serious mezcal sensibility to the city. Hija de Sanchez Cantina in Nordhavn on Hamborg Plads pairs the original taqueria menu with sit-down ceviches, tostadas and a long mezcal list. The Kødbyen counter on Slagterboderne keeps taco plates and tostadas at well under 150 kroner.
