Second visit was more of a disappointment, and in particular in the service department. They were slow, they forgot things and we had to wait on our check for over 30 minutes. I saw some other people complaining and perhaps they were just off their game this particular night. Food is in general good and comes in medium servings which suits me well, but perhaps not the very hungry people. Their olive oil is to die for! That said I will probably head for Hotel Nobis great lounge straight away next time!

EKSTEDT is one of the most exciting restaurants in Sweden, where Chef Niklas Ekstedt cooks…read moreeverything using fire. Chef Niklas Ekstedt says "I grew up in the suburbs of Buenos Aires, in a family deeply rooted in the tradition of cooking with fire. My father taught me the art of asado, showing me how to harness the primal glow of open flames and transform it into a culinary philosophy--where fire isn't just a method, but the heart of a gastronomic experience." The real problem with this restaurant is the price. So many of these "Best Restaurants in the World"charge anywhere from $150 per person for a 16 course tasting menu - all the way to $550 for the tasting menu, and another $950 for the wine-pairing. Needless to say - a top-tier restaurant like this - is NOT Meant for most of us.

Fun, interesting, excellent, and amazing experience in a Michelin one star restaurant that uses…read moreonly wood fires to bake and cook all the food. Dinner starts in a lounge area near the host stand with small bites and cocktails, wine, or water. Next, you go to the dining room and order a drink pairing or drink choice before you are brought to the kitchen and shown the wood fires and see the heat and heat resistant aprons by the chefs and try delicious appetizers with a flaming show as the chef pours the reindeer fat over the oyster, then you are brought back to the dining room to enjoy the rest of your diner. There were 12 courses listed on our menu. My husband chose the non-alcohol drink pairing which featured unique and delicious flavors to go with the food. Like the food, to create the non-alcohol pairings and all the time it can take is truly artistic craftsmanship. I have a limited stomach capacity, so I drank water and enjoyed a sip or two of my husband's non-alcohol drink pairings. Before coming, I was worried based on a few negative reviews that the food would taste smokey and there would be smoke in the air. Happy to say, food did not have a smokey flavor although there was an item like juniper smoked reindeer (tastes like steak). Also, sensitive to air quality, I did not smell or see any smoke in the restaurant and never coughed or had a problem breathing. The kitchen has an amazing exhaust system. Also, hats off to the chefs working all night on open fires; strong and dedicated! Service was on point and explanations were mostly at a good volume to hear what was being described. At the end, you might be asked what your favorites were. Mine were: - Roasted hay, dry aged beef tartar and lumpfish roe - served in the lounge - Flambadau oyster and beurre blanc - for the wow factor of seeing it prepared - Ember baked scallop, spruce shoots and onion - seaweed fired langoustine, celeriac and solaris - sweeter, more tender than a small lobster - Wood oven fired cep mushroom souffle, woodruff and blueberries - dessert and didn't taste like mushrooms which I normally don't like so very interesting - Ember baked almond potato and spun sugar - mini volcano Fascinating, surprising, interesting, fun, and tasty sensory experience. For me, Michelin level cooking is about the layers of flavors they infuse into the food. Ekstedt had that plus in the non-alcohol drink pairing. Definitely worth booking!

Picture this. The…read moresun is just starting to set. You walk into a narrow alley which opens up into a charming courtyard with big trees and flowering plants. It's dinner time. At 10 PM. In the land of the midnight sun. Perfect. Even more perfect was the warm and VERY friendly service we received from Ibrahim. Not only did we get free appetizers (okay, so he was really into my friend! LOL) we also got insider tips on where to go in Gamla Stan. Honestly, apart from the classic Swedish herring plate (I loove herring!) the tomato bisque was on the salty side and the seafood casserole was nothing to write home about. Prices are pretty much on par with San Francisco's tourist spots (apps are $14 and entrees $25 above). The restaurant is very cute, with Mediterranean-style ambiance and had big windows that open to the alley. Snag a seat at one of the few tables outside and have a fabulous time.

We got meatballs and baked potato which was alright, but to be honest might have been exactly the same as what is found at IKEA. It would be unfair to compare the restaurant to other restaurants in Stockholm, considering the price it is probably the same as other similar places in Old Town. What I liked about the restaurant was the nice outside seating on one of the more narrow streets. Very calm and a good atmosphere.

(Last visited 8/7/2021.) Working about 2.5 hours away in Borlange, Sweden I decided to visit…read moreStockholm for the weekend. It's such a beautiful and walkable city, but, it's time to eat! Here's how it went at Calle P.! Atmosphere/Appearance: So right outside of the Berns Hotel at the edge of the park is this gem. It's oddly placed, but it kinda makes sense for it to be where it is. You can have a nice meal here then hit the Berns nightclub to party the night away! Part of the restaurant is covered with a glass roof and the other side is completely open. This place has a very open concept with a nice bar and it exudes excellence. I loved the feeling of dining here. The people were beautiful, young, fun, energetic and it was just the place to be on a Saturday night. Service: I can't remember the name of the 2 servers who took care of me, but they were both awesome. One of them was the bartender who really helped me out since I didn't speak the native language and he made some great recommendations. The young lady who took care of me was very sweet, attentive and she made me feel like I was the only one in the entire restaurant! Food: I started off with a delicious dirty martini. It was everything I was looking for and even came with bleu cheese olives, my favorite kind. For my appetizer I went with the steak tartar. It was deliciously creamy and soft rare steak served with fried capers, pickled mustard seeds, kataifi dough, onion, celeriac and topped with parmesan cheese. It was so succulent and balanced. For my entrée I opted for the catch of the day. I can't remember what it was exactly, but it was also deliciously cream, flaky, a tad bit sweet and so well seasoned. I don't often opt for fish at restaurants, but this was a fantastic choice. Value: My steak tartar was 155.00 kr, but that translates to $14.99 in USD. My entrée was $285.00 kr which translates to $27.57 and my martini was 168.00 kr which converts to $16.25. The food was absolutely worth the price. The quality was just so amazing and worth it, but the drink... at $16.25 is up there. Those are New York City prices. Sheesh, but you have to pay to play! In conclusion, I really enjoyed myself here! I will come back again and again to explore the menu some more, especially since it changes so much. If you're in the area, check this place out before you hit the club!

As an aside, this may be the best drip coffee we've ever had, anywhere. Smooth, caramel, complex, with no bitterness. No reservations during lunches which occur 11am-3pm. We were lucky to only wait a few minutes, but there was generally a line the entire time. Service was friendly. Thanks and see you next time!!
