Even though they were very crowded and had two large parties, they were very accommodating and provided wonderful service. The prime rib was wonderful, the sides had great flavor, and the chocolate mouse with a glass of red was a nice finish. I highly recommend this restaurant to any meat eater. Just know ahead of time your only choice is prime rib. Of course, it didn't hurt that the seating arrangement forced us to sit next to two beautiful ladies. Made the experience even better. Thank you ladies, and of course, Trancher

I have been here a few times and the food is always great. It is far superior to most of the steak…read morehouses I have tried in Oslo. However, the great food cannot make up for the lousy service I seem to get every time I am here. The worst was a few months ago for my boyfriend's 30th birthday. It was supposed to be a surprise dinner with all of his friends. I made reservations 2 weeks in advanced online. I then called the day before the dinner to confirm the reservations. Apparently I talked to the cook and he said that my reservation looked fine. He repeated how many people the reservation was for, my name, and at what time so all seemed fine. My boyfriend's friends showed up to the restaurant before me and called me to say they did not have the reservations. When I arrived a few minutes later they tried to tell me that the cook had told me to call back in a few minutes when I talked to him on the phone the day before. I explained to them how if that were the case I obviously would have called back because of the importance of the reservations. They tried to reserve us a table for the next evening, but obviously that wouldnt work. The great thing about being an American in Norway is Norwegians are quickly intimidated when we raise our voice. As soon as I raised my voice and let them know how pissed I was, we were given a table. It was not quite big enough for all of us, but we were at least seated. The service after that was still awful. I would have thought it was because I raised my voice at them, but having been here several times before that, I wouldnt have expected the service to be anything but lousy and if it werent for my boyfriend being Norwegian and used to bad service, I would never go back, but unfortunately, he loves the place.

My friend had the cauliflower soup and I had a Caesar salad to start, both mouth watering, followed by the salmon with potatoes, everything was great.

The place is a bit on the more fancy side but even as we were in jeans and layers (very cold and rainy outside) we didn't feel out of place or unwelcome.

I'm from Australia and I was curious to try the local take on western steak here in Oslo. Back home…read morewe make pretty damn good steak, I know it's not a typical Norwegian meal so I tried to be lenient. First I tried the "onion soup", it came with a bit of toast with melted cheese. The toast was probably the best part of it, the soup was rather salty and not overly flavourful. I got the rib eye steak medium with chips and corn. I also ordered some garlic bread (was fairly hungry). The steak itself wasn't too bad! However, if the steak was a canvas it felt like the painter only used one colour of paint. Basically, it wasn't very flavourful, I'm not sure if that's the way Norwegian steak tastes, if so it definitely can use some seasoning or something. The corn was corn, can't complain. The chips however were waaaay too salty! I could literally only eat a couple. In the end, I felt it was very overpriced for what I got, back home you can get all this better tasting for half the price. There weren't many people there but the service was good, I left the waiter a tip because he was very attentive. Too bad there is a disconnect in quality between the kitchen and the service area.

I think mine will be the 5th. Before we even entered, I heard that Entrecôte specializes in one cut of meat and it is cooked one way - medium. I ordered the 220g and the truffle ravioli. My cut came a little above rate, which I love. We also got the scalloped potatoes. On a scale of 1-10, the steak was about 5 or so. Nothing special and it reminded me of a Lawry's prime rib. It came slightly seasoned but they had sea salt and pepper on the table. The funny thing is they had San Mig for draft beer. Food: 6/10 Ambiance: 7/10 Service: 6/10 Bathrooms: 7/10 Would I return?

Yet the prices are expensive even compared to other gourmet burgers in town. Together they bring low value (with their line-chef / head chef military precision in their kitchen, you expect better). However, they might be able to sustain themselves feeding off tourists thinking of a final "luxury burger" on their way to the airport. I would advise you to stay clear of this place, grab a bacon hotdog from 7Eleven and save your hard-earned money for better-valued $25(!) burgers outside Norway. We had three burgers to taste: Bacon & Cheese, Santa Fe and BBQ Pulled Pork. The good thing is the beef patties are of good quality and served pink in the middle (ironically it gets complaints from Norwegians, demonstrating the difficulty of introducing modern cuisine in Oslo). On the minus side, it is smallish; the buns were bad and soggy; the Bacon & Cheese is not very exciting; the Santa Fe's guac and pico-de-gallo did not lend an dimension to the dish; the Pulled Pork had a over-sharp sweetness to it and matches poorly with the slaw. Overall it's not complete disappointment, but it's a meh. To be fair, Opland is a new place that needs work, but I would need convincing positive reviews after a few months to consider another try.
