The first thing we tried was the deep fried pickles, which I thought was awesome - yet that was probably the worst thing we ended up getting. The stew is frankly amazing. It's like a barbecue gumbo (but better than that sounds). It's so meaty, and yet the broth itself is this rich liquid which is like the essence of barbecue itself. It came with the best cornbread I've had outside of the United States (although I come from the UK which basically takes the opportunity to mess up cornbread every time I've had it). The pulled pork croquettes were also stand outs, as was just the overall service. Super friendly, and just chatting but in an unobtrusive way. Even though we were completely stuffed, we ordered the banana pudding. This was a very good choice, but I have to say that it's only the second best I've ever had. The first is Magnolia Bakery in New York, so frankly it's still quite the compliment!! Just so good. If I was in Stockholm longer, I'd be tempted to come back.

The restaurant is on the first floor. I climbed the red carpeted stairs to the right and was instantly greeted by the menu and a waitress. The decor is posh and trendy. The atmosphere has a great city vibe. Even on a Tuesday, the restaurant was quite full. Prices can go from 150-300kr a person, depending how hungry you are. Regardless of what you order, a complementary basket of breads and butter is served. The food took around 20-25 minutes from order-to-table. Judging from the food freshness, quality, taste to the attentive service and cool ambiance, Paul's has really made a strong first impression. I can't wait to go back and try other delicious dishes, because that menu has nothing I wouldn't like to eat.

This bar/restaurant offered me a small piece of Austin during my travels. I can say I didn't eat here because I typically avoid American dining while traveling aboard. My husband and I did, however, enjoy a drink so we could take in the Austin scenery. My husband ordered a Texas Amber beer and I ordered a local cider. Overall a cool place and would recommend all to check it out.

This was great serendipity - I'm so glad we stopped here and it was honestly a highlight of our trip. First of all, the view is amazing. The location is quiet and right on the water, so we could watch the boats go by while sipping our wine. We ate outside and it was quite lovely. The food was all good - I have no complaints about any of the appetizers or dishes we had. The service was really great as well - the server was kind and very helpful with questions we had. Overall, while it might be a bit off the beaten path, definitely stop by on a sunny day and drink in a great Stockholm experience.

The skagen topped with roe was delicious and remains one of my favorite dishes from the trip! Our waiter was also very helpful in pointing out the most traditional options to try (such as the pyttipanna which was surprisingly light!) and suggesting wine pairings based on our meals. The servers will even put your meal under a heat lamp if you have to get up from the table for any reason so it stays warm! While I enjoyed my cod with prawns, the butter sauce was a little too heavy - other options on the menu that I tasted throughout the week (such as the chicken dish) were lighter without losing any flavor. I would recommend this spot as a great restaurant with knowledgeable staff to serve as a first introduction to Swedish cuisine! Food: B+ Drinks: A Service: A Atmosphere: B+

As mentioned though, it's a pricey place for the type of food. Glad I went but probably wouldn't frequent it

The parm burger (a temporary special) was a bit too acidic, but definitely has some nice flavors. The fries were delicious - and quite a good portion size. The Mac and cheese was also good but not quite cheesy enough for me, so I'd definitely opt for the fries next time too. The restaurant is small but cozy. Hopefully they'll add some hooks soon though because there wasn't anywhere to put your coat. All in all, this is a great place for a drink and/or meal - I'll definitely be back!

Definitely recommend if you're looking to have a good time with some friends.

The beer and wine is cheap and good (minus the stor stark, but for 29 kr you shouldn't be allowed to complain, really). If you want to go out with friends and have many drinks in a chill atmosphere, it's not a bad choice. It's a GREAT choice, however, if you don't want to wake up the next morning upset with how much money you spent. I imagine it's also great for pre-gaming, in case you REALLY don't want to just go to system and get drunk at home. As far as food is concerned, I've only tried their snack combo plate (149:-). I wasn't expecting much, to be honest. What arrived was a massive plate full of buffalo wings, jalapeno poppers, mozzarella sticks, onion rings, celery, and some dipping containers with blue cheese, salsa, and sour cream. I couldn't finish it all due to its size, although that's expected considering it's supposed to be shared (hahahah). Nothing impressed me, and I actually found the wings a little disgusting (on the mushy side). The other items were crispy and greasy just how I imagine they would be at a sports bar. If you like this kind of fare, then by all means have a go. Bottom line: Go to have some beers/wine (avoid cocktails- they don't taste very good and are small for the price), share a combo plate, and move on.

Wow. It was delish. The brownies were the fudgy type that I love. The icecream was the best temp and I got to enjoy it without it melting fast. My husband got the chicken tenders and he raved about how much he loved them. Our server also brought my daughter a little ball that she loved. In all it was our only option for a buy night in Stockholm and turned out to be a good choice in the end. I'd recommend Stockholm's Hard Rock Cafe to my Hard Rock aficionado friends or anyone who enjoys a perfectly done brownie sundae.

It was a perfect afternoon to be out. Eisa took great care of me and we chatted a bit on the history of Hard Rock here in Stockholm. It used to be further into the local area, very homey and a classic style to the old place too. But the new location has its charms too! Really great to get out and around Stockholm to see some old and some new laces and things too. I love cities that are always evolving and Stockholm certainly does that very well! The menu here is very good. There's something for anyone here and the staff is super great and friendly too.

We had just arrived that afternoon and were walking around our hotel to look for an early dinner. The dining room is lovely but not too stuffy or formal. We ordered the brown bread for starters, along with some wine and beer. I ordered the Arctic char (parsnip, chili, hazelnuts, browned butter and a soy glaze) and Paul G. went with the meatballs (hand-rolled and with cream sauce, mashed potatoes, lingonberries and pickled cucumber). We had the traditional Swedish meatball dish a few more times during the trip and they all came with the same components, but Bistro Bestick's was my fave. The sauce was heavier, velvety and creamy, and the potatoes were oh so fluffy. The berries were tart and fresh. I loved my fish, too... the hazelnuts, brown butter and soy were such a bright, unexpected combination. I enjoyed every bite. Don't sleep on dessert here! I couldn't even finish my dinner but still wanted to try the chocolate rum cake (salty caramel sauce, roasted peanuts, vanilla ice cream and crispy sesame) and what a delightful flavor explosion! It was beautifully presented and the sesame "cracker" on top was the perfect contrast to all the sweetness. I'd highly recommend BB!
