About Skál

Runner up 2026 in “Best Goddamn Restaurant”. Skál continues to draw fans and patrons with their iconic scallops and craft cocktails, but it was the pop-ups they hosted the past year that were a veritable feast. From New Nordic and Tovi Toivanen to a banger of a weekend with Saji from Copenhagen, Skál shows us that a great spot keeps things fresh and zingy by being a third space within a third space.
