Restaurant Nipisa
This smart but relaxed restaurant creates extraordinary gastronomic magic using superb fresh local ingredients. Dishes are artistic creations to be savoured at considerable length. The daily-changing set dinner (Dkr275/295 for two/three courses) might sound expensive but is actually a bargain for a world-class culinary experience that's heightened yet further if you accept the waiter's wine suggestions, which complement the flavours magnificently. Booking for dinner is almost essential, maybe a week ahead for weekends. Lunches (Dkr50 to Dkr80) are relatively simple.

A Hereford Beefstouw
The Nuuk branch of a relatively upmarket Danish steakhouse chain manages to give some atmosphere to an inherently characterless room by creative use of space breaks, chunky wooden furniture and flickering oil lamps. The limited salad bar costs an extra Dkr46, or Dkr88 if used as a complete meal in itself (including baked potato).

Charoen Porn
Behind uninviting metal doors, warm soft lighting and oriental embroideries welcome you into Greenland's best and most genuine Thai restaurant. Very generous portions of Thom Kha soup (Dkr89) are delicious but very mildly spiced despite being labelled 'hot'.

Hotel Godthåb
This family-atmosphere carvery has an interior of fake shopfronts that segues strangely into a period drawing-room area. Both sections have heavy new beams, happily mismatched pseudo-Victorian prints and photos of the Hindenburg. Thursday night there's a Mongolian barbecue. Friday and Saturday evening you get carved meats, garnishes and a half bottle of wine for the same price. After 10pm there's a DJ and bar till 3am.

Restaurant Isikkivik
This good-value eatery is out in Nuussuaq with views across the marina. The dining room may not be lavish, but it's surprisingly pleasant for its odd position above a mini-market. Enter from Salliarnaq (the road behind). The reliably filling Dkr45 meal of the day is available from 11.30am and from 5.30pm as stocks last. Pizzas and steaks are also on offer. From central Nuuk take bus No 2 to the Illorput (marina) stop.

Café Tuap
This stylishly minimalist gallery-café is within the light-suffused atrium of the Katuaq Cultural Centre. Lunches including reindeer and muskox steak or filled baked potatoes are served until 3pm. Otherwise, come here for real cappuccinos or a genuine Greenlandic coffee ( Kalaallit kaffiat, Dkr100).

Café Crazy Daisy
This diner-style place has a range of fast food (Dkr16 to Dkr50) but also serves cooked breakfasts (Dkr28 to Dkr56), fish, steaks, pizza and chicken, plus a menu of Chinese and Thai cuisine (Dkr55 to Dkr87) served through the dragon portal at the back.

Igaffik
The no-nonsense canteen of Nuuk Transport serves a good-value Dkr38 set lunch (11.30am to 1.30pm) and dinner (5pm to 7pm), or snacks at other times. It's upstairs via a narrow atrium in a warehouse-style building off the trawler wharf.

Gertrud Rask Spiesehus
At the upmarket Gertrud Rask Spiesehus, with paintings and starched tablecloths, you may feel uncomfortable without a jacket or dress. Creative daily menus cost Dkr325/350 for three/four courses.

Bella's Pizza
This itinerant former kebab wagon is usually parked outside Unik gift shop (Imaneq 29). It bakes remarkably good takeaway pizzas; Dkr15 to Dkr20 slices are available at lunchtime. Try the garlic-charged Firenze.

Dupond & Dupont
Here there's fast food that you order McDonald's style but can eat while sitting down in the nicer bowling-alley bar next door.
