Ok, I know 5 stars must be saved for the very best and for me, to give 5 stars is not easy except 4.5 stars on this one will not do justice. Low key, very quiet, very simple decor, unpretentious . This is what we got: The Bone Marrow was just right - great presentation, great texture and taste . The beef Tartar was one of the best I have ever had and is a must ! The biggest surprise of the night was the Mackerel -Oh my god - I did not think Mackerel can taste like this. I've had Mackerel in many places around the world and in many different forms -smoked, pickled , grilled as sushi, you name it . . . This one was something else -came with two side dishes -potatoes, which I did not care for and seaweed, which was nothing special. But, man oh man, the Mackerel was so good - I did not care about the sides or the dressing - not even the lemon. It was so perfect it did not need any help or interference. Amalia, our waitress, was so sweet and recommended an amazing dessert which is also a must - rhubarb - don't ask too much, just order that . I hope you guys out there will have the same experience I just had. . You can always dream about it if these dishes are not served when you get here as I hear they keep changing them constantly. Good luck
Came here with a group of international students for a typical Christmas dinner (i.e. the famous Norwegian Julebord). The event was thankfully mostly sponsored, so we each paid around 200kr although the actual 3 course meal was around 500kr itself (but then again we're in Norway, so prices shouldn't be discussed). The food itself was delicious though and the atmosphere of the place really nice. (Attached pictures of the dishes as well). Enjoy!

The "House of Litterature" in Bergen contains so much more than the restaurant that it has so far been reviewed for. The establishment opened January 2013 and is the "home" for writers in Bergen, as well as a stage for debates, readings, launches, kids' events etc. In addition it has a brasserie and a café on the first level. One Tuesday every month they are hosting the event "Ut med språket", focusing on linguistics and the history and meaning behind common and less common words in the Norwegian language. The show is lead by the TV personality Linda Eide, together with professor in Nordic languages, Gunnstein Akselberg. They also have various guests attending, in addition to an engaged audience. Last Tuesday that guest happened to be my sister, invited to present dialect words from our home town, in addition to discuss her work on her master thesis; looking into the use of "-ish" in the Norwegian language. The show is entertaining (in Norwegian) and is representing just one of the experiences you can get from visiting Litteraturhuset in Bergen. read more

I trust my nose and it led me over for a quick lunch. Definitely a must try if you are visiting Bergen. Can try next time for dinner as well because of good food and atmosphere.. read more
My mother and myself were looking for a nice little lunch place - we wanted to be a little healthy and not spend too much money. Obviously in Bergen Norway the latter is often difficult. But we ended up here. Lovely place with varied offering - we went for the salmon salad. Very friendly staff and free wifi (always useful when you are travelling). read more
