    Hi v-easonf-msft

    I already know the problem, so imagine that you have a table name 05. Country and field Country #, you need to put this: 

    ?filter=_x0030__x0035__x002E__x0020_Country/Country_x0020__x0023_ eq 'Denmark'
     
    so when you put special characters you need to put double __ between them. And be careful with ' symbol because I figured out that I was facing a problem with my keyboard when I used this ' symbol (because my keyboard is in Portuguese not in US International). So the best approach to not change the default language of your keyboard is use this format:

    ?filter=_x0030__x0035__x002E__x0020_Country%2FCountry_x0020__x0023_%20eq%20%27Denmark%27
    When I use that format, it is working well in my side. 

    Kind regards,
