Compliments to the kitchen! Delicious 2course lunch special…read more The BF is popular, recommend reserving a table by the window- away from the open kitchen. Tables are small and the place feels crowded closer to the kitchen on the 1st floor. I personally prefer a quiet atmosphere, dimmer lights and comfortable seating at restaurants, therefore the calamitous and bright room, with a small table, of BFs first floor draws the rating down to a 3. The restaurant has 3 other floors (reserved for parties and dinner) and a great looking dinner and wine menu, so I would recommend dinner over lunch, and dining as a group over 2 ppl.

Elias Mat & Sant is a delightful restaurant in Oslo, a city that has endless restaurants. But…read moreElias Mat & Sant is perfect if you're looking for classic, Norwegian food in a casual setting. I enjoyed my time here. Elias Mat & Sant is located in the sentrum, Oslo's city center, so is walking distance to many sites and attractions. I visited here after walking from the palace along Karl Johans Gate as the restaurant is located off this main drag. Make reservations here for the restaurant is small and intimate. It was time to try reindeer while in the Nordic region of the world, so here I did. I ordered the reindeer stew, which was delicious. The reindeer stew was similar to a beef stew, but the reindeer is leaner, so didn't taste as heavy, which is a good thing. Over some mashed potatoes with a gravy and herbs and a side of lingonberry, it completed the meal. It also came with a side of complimentary bread, which is not always the case at other restaurants. That was a nice bonus though because the bread helped soaked up the stew. Perfection!

Supposedly there are also concerts in the summer time on the roof of the opera. The food was good as well with numerous choices on the menu and all comes well served and decorated on nice plates.

It was fun to go through the meats, cheese selections and spices. We finally sat down to eat at the cafe. The woodfire oven looked very nice hut the seating area was not cozy or comfortable. In fact it was cramped and people waiting in line to order were hovering around people who were sitting and eating. The pizza was delicious. Thin crust and just the right juicy, if you know what I mean. The vegetarian focaccia look very good but it wasn't good to eat. The bread wasn't tasty and the cheese tomato combo was just not right. The Vanilla Cronut was a lot like the original NY Cronut and I liked it a lot. Will definitely have the pizza and Cronut if I come back. The desserts looked good as did the breads. Maybe I'll try the olive bread next time. The thing about this particular neighborhood of Skøyen is that it's too cold and deserted even on a Saturday afternoon. This place makes me feel cut off from the world, like a modern and fun-looking ghost town. Ikke koselig! Don't know if I'll go back here. ESP when I can get better pizza at Olivia's which is the same price, much more fun and closer to me.
