Utrolig lekker mat! The food was simply incredible: fresh, visually appetizing, and delicious. They…read moreknocked our socks off. Definitely recommend eating when in Trondheim. One not so fun feature of the restaurant is that they have no toilet for guests, but rather tell you to go down the street to the shopping mall (an adventure in itself & 10 minute round trip). The high quality food prevented me from leaving. Can't wait to eat here again!

This is in many ways the best and tastiest food you can get in Trondheim. And yes, I've been to…read moreCredo, Emilies, et al., and they're all really good, but they've never amazed me as much as this place keeps doing. This is casual and the menu is not very big (and changes neither very often nor by very much), but they found something they're extremely good at and perfected to an incredible extent. I can't think of a single thing I'd change here. Most of the food they serve has traces of traditional Scandinavian cuisine, some Mediterranean and Arab influences, and a good dose of east Asian flavors. That might sound messy, but it's not -- the flavors are really well balanced. As much as I eat here, they still manage to surprise me with their creativity while still maintaining a sufficient sense of familiar flavors. The food is also really healthy and they use a lot of local organic ingredients. I tend to prefer the dinner over the lunch (get the dinner of the day), but the lunch is also very good. It's also very cheap, and they offer takeout. This is probably not the best vegetarian restaurant in the world, but that's easy to forget when you're here and feeling blissful, and I'd say Persilleriet easily holds its own against more famous vegetarian restaurants like Leaf (Boulder, CO) or Candle 79 (NYC). (The main difference being the level of formality and style of cooking.) If you have any interest in food you need to try this place.

So I'm here for work and my coworkers have eaten here twice already. Apparently it's a must in this…read moresmall town, so on one of our last nights here we decided to bring the entire staff. It's a nice space, big enough for a large group and pretty comfortable. The service is a bit slow but the waiter was very kind and welcoming. After a carafe of wine, I decided to do my typical Italian ordering and get several courses. First course was the garlic shrimp antipasti. The waiter said it was the best, I thought It was okay; the shrimp were pretty small and it was served in a snail dish, you know the one with little pockets for the snails. It made it complicated to eat. But they gave me some bread and butter with it, so dipping it in the garlic butter made it tasty. I was disappointed they didn't have the snails tonight but it's stjordal on a Tuesday and I can't get everything I want. I had the lasagna for my pasta dish and the filet di manzo for my main. The lasagna was really good. Just the right amount of cheese to pasta to meat ratio. It could have used a bit more of a kick, but as a fan of lasagna I was definitely happy. The filet di manzo, and by the way I'm pretty sure I'm spelling it wrong, was essentially a steak covered in Gorgonzola sauce. The steak was perfectly cooked, the vegetables and potatoes were really good too. It obviously had a strong pungent taste because of the Gorgonzola but it wasn't overpowering and I enjoyed it all. So we tried getting tiramisu for dessert and we thought our communication was solid, but after ordering it, he brought us the creme brûlée instead and insisted it was what we ordered... but didn't make us pay for it. I thought that was pretty cool of him, so I couldn't complain too much. Hey, it's not Italy, but for such a small area it was definitely a great experience and I would come back. My coworkers were wow'd by their dishes so I still have most of the menu to go through.

This restaurant is clean and roomy with modern decor. The menu has lots to chose from, both Italian…read morefood and burgers, and the food was very good.
