    We were famished as we had been walking on tours in the rain, all morning throughout Oslo and came…read moreacross Proseccheria. They quickly seated us and took our orders promptly. It was a Tuesday afternoon but the restaurant was quite busy and it seemed that they were understaffed as the kind lady who took our orders was also tending to the entire restaurant at the same time. Maybe it was because we were starving from the walking we previously endured but the food took upwards to 50 minutes to come out (which felt like quite a long time). However, I have no complaints beyond that because the dishes were worth all the while! The ingredients were very fresh, pastas perfectly cooked and seasoned. We ordered the Rigatoni Alla Bartinli, Ravioli Porcini, and the Tagliatelle Al Pesto off of the lunch menu. If I were to rank the three, the top dish was the Ravioli Porcini, as it was paired with very tasty mushrooms and bacon within a flavorful cream sauce. The Rigatoni had great texture and was a close second as it was overall just very delicious. The Pesto Tagliatelle was also very tasty as well but the ravioli was the all around winner. All of the pasta was definitely freshly handmade. The restaurant featured modern, minimalistic decorations. From the exterior, there is a slight contrast from the Christiania Town-look to an adapted modern look of the restaurant. It was refreshing to see such a modern place near the older architecture surrounding it. From inside, the restaurant features a bar and a few other tables of seating area. It gives off "upscale-relaxed" vibes. Since it was raining that day, it was nice that they had a coat rack and area to put wet umbrellas near the door. It made the restaurant feel more like home. The pastas were quite filling and were perfectly portioned. Each pasta did come out to be close to 300 Norwegian Kroner (~$29 USD), but whatever the cost, it satisfied our bellies and we were happy campers! My overall rating would be a 4.1, rounded to 4/5. The meal was great but it did take a little while to come out. With all that being said, I would come back if we had the chance to explore Oslo a different time!

    Haven't been here in ages, and first thing that cage you is the interior. From outside it doesn't…read morelook like a fresh where each inch is not a coincidence in choosing the small to the big details in decorating the bar and the seating. Especially the lamps in the roof have the place a plus touch! The food was served by an attentive person and the time from order was short. I ordered something light, while the rest of the party went for hot and cold courses. The food was great and can easily recommend checking it out when downtown Oslo. Just make sure you use Uber or taxi, because parking is impossible...

    I absolutely adored my evening at Cru. I will run, not walk, back here the next time in Oslo. It…read morewas a quiet and intimate dining room (I ate downstairs), and I was well-attended-to all evening, especially by a nice Scottish waiter who saw I was a wine lover and was chatty and helpful. I had a ravishingly good glass of Sekt (sparkling riesling) by von Buhl, which was crisp and acidic and a bit biscuity, though not as much as the blanc de blanc champagnes I love. The bread and butter on the table was the most delicious dark caraway bread I've ever had in my life, hands down. I had a slow-cooked lamb stew that was small but thrillingly good. There was watercress and bacon along with it, over a pea purée and with some fresher peas. Absolutely delicious, the meat was extremely tender and tasty. I would have wished for twice as much. My waiter/sommelier steered me away from a 1999 Château Lanessan (which he let me try anyway) because it was kind of faded and instead towards a 2015 Barda Pinot Noir from Argentina, which was in a much better window and ended up matching better. (Though in the end, although it is tastefully made, there was too much new oak and sweetness in it for my taste.) I had a crème catalane at the end which was very nice and palate-cleansing. The main portion was small, but the food was incredibly good. Maybe have a little apéro snack before you head to Cru. And yes, the bill adds up quickly, but this is Oslo. This was quality.

    This was my first visit to CRU, my expectations where not that high because I had heard both good…read moreand bad reviews of the place, but anyway here we were. Nice location quiet and secluded at Majorstuen (Oslo West) The Restaurant was warm and nicely decorated. The waiter seated us and started telling us about the menu (We went for the 7-course menu) the staff was professional and friendly, the sommelier was very knowledgeable and he recommended some great wine throughout the entire meal. This is one of Oslo's best restaurants right now, the food and the wine was perfect inn every way, as was the staff @ CRU. Highly recommended.
