    Lokal Izakaya - Quiet Monday evening.

    Great food, service and ambience. Plates are a little small. You will need to eat two or three…read moreplates to fill up. Little bit on the expensive side.

    Just like Agnes L I was here for the Yelp Social and my expectations were perhaps not very high…read moreseeing that the previous visit to a Swedish place calling itself an izakaya, Shibumi, was sort of a disappointment (not in quality of the food but just was not an izakaya) and when Lokal Izakaya opens on Kungsholmen and in Lemon Bar it does not really signal that it will be anything good. When I entered I was in a since pleasantly surprised as the place was nicely designed and looked really nice, again though nothing to do with a proper izakaya and the first glance on the menu confirmed that the people behind this place probably never been to an izakaya and potentially never set foot in Japan. The service was however friendly and fairly knowledgeable. They seemed to have things running nicely already from the opening. We started off with some drinks, very nice cocktails and a fairly interesting beer list. The wine list is by no means bad but a bit dull. When it comes to the food we opted to share some dishes to try several things. The seared asparagus with radish and black sesame was a nice and fresh dish. We then also tried the so called Fried Master Pork which was decent but nothing special and it really felt more Chinese than Japanese. We then had one of the sharing dishes, the miso pork. That was also a nice dish but again nothing that felt Japanese at all. In a sense all of the food was good but it was more like some sort of pan-Asian cuisine and slightly to advanced to be an izakaya. The menu is also. It all over the place with medium sized dishes, mains, sharing dishes and sushi and sashimi. All in all a decent place for above average Asian food, if they would change the name (not claim that they are an izakaya) and clean up the menu a bit and focus more it could be better.

    So I finally decided to take my lazy ass across the park & go to Miss Voon, figuring that since I…read morewalk by it nearly every day, that I should try it. Wow. Just....wow! The restaurant's decor is reminiscent of the Buddha Bar in Paris, and it has the same cool vibe with music to complement it. Snygging and I had to get our own drinks from the bar and nibblies were extra, which wasn't auspicious. But the bartender was very friendly & helpful, and the hostess sat us in a prompt and very friendly manner (make sure you make a reservation). Our waiter was very friendly, and very helpful with suggestions not just on choices of dishes, but wine pairing too. Then the food arrived. Gorgeous! Then we tasted it. Oh. My. God! We both started making moaning noises almost as soon as the first bites hit our palates (she started with the truffle dumplings, and I started with the Fjord Salmon). I mean, honestly...other patrons were staring at us like we were up to something under the table. It was that good. Ambrosiac! Then on to the Ox Rib Tempura (more moaning), the Lamb Racks (GTFO!!), and the Lobster Tacos (porn noises). I also had the Tuna Fritters, which, while delicious, didn't measure up to the other dishes... Which were insanely, deliciously good! I read another reviewer saying that it deserved a Michelin star, and I absolutely agree. Miss Voon is expensive, but it is worth every penny. If you have to choose between paying your taxes or eating here, well... the choice is obvious to me. Going back again tonight. Probably this weekend too.

    My favourite restaurant in Stockholm... Both for good food and ambience…read more Pure Deliciousness! The dishes are super tasty, delicately prepared and small...and small sizes is great, as it enables me to get a few bites of everything. The way I like it as I am used to that kind of dining from Japan. Every single dish I have tried have been outstanding. The flavours are very refined, varied and unique. Definitely an artform few chefs master. Cocktails...ahhh, I tried 'Stranger in Moscow' and that was it. Hooked...for good or for bad! Deserts...here you can try any and they will be mouth watering. But somehow I go back to the mochi ice-cream. Sweet and simple! Now for the ambience... Book a table in advance. It is often fully booked and especially the weekends you could have to wait until 10pm to get a seat if you come without a booking at 6.30pm like I did. The tables, although pretty closely placed to each other manage to keep privacy due to design. The service is always good...although some due seem to hesitate speaking English. But that is fine...I speak Swedish too :) Otherwise...just request an English speaking waiter/waitress from the very beginning. My number one pick for where to bring VIP guests for a cosy treat and when I want a good treat myself. I would go back at least once every visit to Stockholm. Don't miss it!
