We got a Tony Soprano pizza and it was delicious. The meat was pretty tender and the sauce worked well with the toppings. For the pasta we got a tomato sauce seafood one. Was pretty good, though the seafood was on the more skimpy side. The table next to us ordered the mussels and that looked delicious so would probably recommend that. Service was pretty good, and the waitress and waiters were pretty attentive overall.

Pretty solid Italian food considering we're in Oslo and the restaurant ambiance was quite nice…read more Ruffino's food tasted as good as their restaurant looked. I split the bruschetta with my friend and boy was it delicious - the tomatoes tasted extremely fresh and the crunch of the toast was amazing. I opted for the risotto and it definitely was one of the better ones I've tasted. There was a ton of flavor packed into the broth and it was creamy enough, but not too overwhelming. I would just say that the there just was a bit too much cheese for me, but it did not deduct from the overall experience. The service was exceptional and quick, totally would recommend!

Situated in the heart of Oslo's hip Grünerløkka 'hood (translation: Grünerløkka is to Oslo as the…read moreMission is to San Francisco and Shoreditch is to London), Villa Paradiso turns out some fine pies. The Italian-accented staff gives the place a genuine vibe and one bite of the pizza continues the trend. I had the 'In Bufalata' (Buffalo mozzarella, semidried cherry tomato, basil and olive oil) and very much enjoyed the crisp, chewy crust and well-balanced sauce. I dug the fact that wine was available in several sizes: liter, half liter and glass. It was a school night so a half liter shared between the two of us was perfect. You'll want to book ahead as the place fills up fast.

We were staying in this neighborhood overnight before flying out early in the morning and got really lucky. This place wasn't even that busy, which was surprising, because it was really really good and reasonably priced. I had a mixed plate of grilled meats, all of which were super delicious.... I literally ate everything on the plate. The husband had some pasta, that was decent, but this isn't really a pasta place ... They also serve awesome bread and dips to start, yummmm. We had an apple cake for dessert that was also fairly decent. I hadn't had Turkish food before, So I was very pleasantly surprised. I would highly recommend it!

We sat outside and hoped to look like a fellow Norwegian enjoying the night, the food, the drink and the company. Had the hanger steak with arugula salad. It had a chimi sauce.

I liked the seating location as it faces the "Y" of a main road. One can see the people, tram and car traffic going by. Very friendly staff and attentive. In other words, they don't disappear or keep you waiting.

We decided to sit inside because it was more private, since everybody was dining outside. Now their menu options are limited. I ended up ordering Italian meat soup. I absolutely disliked this soup. The owner / manager explained that they cook it exactly the way Italian meat soup is done. It might be the case, but it just tasted to strong and pungent. I let my friend tried a bit and she didn't like it either. I just think it was a flavor that Americans are not used to. My friend ordered the oxtail ravioli. That was actually really good. Service here wasn't great either. Apparently that's a common complain. Anyways I ended up spending $20 on a bowl of soup I detested.

Inside the restaurant, they had a very inviting open kitchen and an excellent seating area. We were greeted by the hostess, who also took our order. She couldn't not have been more friendly or helpful and had a great sense of humor. Clearly, this is someone who loves her job and it made the meal extra special. I had the linguine with creamy shellfish sauce, scampi, lemon, squash and chili. Scampi is not shrimp, but langoustine, which is an orange-colored crustacean native to the northeastern Atlantic and Mediterranean. It is known for its small, slender claws, and is more like a mini-lobster than shrimp. The sauce was flavorful and overall was an excellent dish. My wife had the Pasta pollo ubriaco, which is rigatoni in a rich, creamy tomato sauce with chili, chicken fillet and bacon. Also excellent. I thought we should split a side salad, but it was anything but small. Quite tasty, but we were stuffed at this point. Overall, a great dining experience.
