We shared their signature plate, the pork knuckle and it was delicious! I'm glad we shared it though cause it was a ton of food. The meat was tender and the skin was extra crispy. It's served with a delicious mustard sauce that goes well with the pork. It sits on a bed of mashed potatoes and sautéed veggies (cabbage, green beans and carrots). The beer selection is massive so it's also great for beer lovers. I would highly recommend this place to locals and tourists alike!

I actually wanted something 'lighter' but I asked for his recommendation, and of course he said the signature item that they are "famous" for. I also paired it with some whale, because I like eating protected and endangered species. The whale was the best part. Tastes like those cute little puffins, vaguely like a tender beef jerky. As for the caveman chunk of pork on a bone. Woof. I mean, it's good. The crackling is like pork rinds on steroids and the meat really did fall off the bone. The mustard sauce and the mashed potatoes were loaded with fat. However, the staff friendly and attentive. I love my meats, but this did not blow my mind. Would not go out of my way to come here, and I think the overall ratings are a bit generous.

It was fun to go through the meats, cheese selections and spices. We finally sat down to eat at the cafe. The woodfire oven looked very nice hut the seating area was not cozy or comfortable. In fact it was cramped and people waiting in line to order were hovering around people who were sitting and eating. The pizza was delicious. Thin crust and just the right juicy, if you know what I mean. The vegetarian focaccia look very good but it wasn't good to eat. The bread wasn't tasty and the cheese tomato combo was just not right. The Vanilla Cronut was a lot like the original NY Cronut and I liked it a lot. Will definitely have the pizza and Cronut if I come back. The desserts looked good as did the breads. Maybe I'll try the olive bread next time. The thing about this particular neighborhood of Skøyen is that it's too cold and deserted even on a Saturday afternoon. This place makes me feel cut off from the world, like a modern and fun-looking ghost town. Ikke koselig! Don't know if I'll go back here. ESP when I can get better pizza at Olivia's which is the same price, much more fun and closer to me.

Great burger if you are looking for a quick 30-70 kroner bite that will absolutely fill you up. Get sauce, sprinkle the fry prefer on everything, and don't worry, because the line moves quick.

If you order the big burgers, don't forget napkins because the paper wrappers (which help keep the cost of that burger so low) are one-size-fits-"most" :-)

I enjoyed my meal and the service was also great. I am told it's packed during lunch with people who work in the area. It's just outside the Lysaker train station. A good place for a meal which I am sure I will come to again.

We started with the spring rolls and wontons for entre. These are tasty morsels. Fresh and clean. The salad includes a real bite from chili oil but we all love a bit of heat...ikke sant. My daughter enjoyed the kimchi pancakes and as she is vegetarian, it's nice to find a place that is not too expensive with genuine vegetarian items that are also really tasty. And if you a desert person...ginger infused creme brulé is not to be missed. As we live in the area, sort of, we'll definitely be back to enjoy this lovely blend of Japanese and Korean cusine.

We did not have a reservation, but luckily they managed to fit us in at a shared table. This place is extremely popular so I would highly recommend making a reservation. To start, we ordered the cod croquettes to share. Perfectly fried and golden brown, these croquettes were absolutely delicious and the accompanying sauce paired perfectly. For our entrées, I ordered the fish and chips while my husband ordered the creamy fish soup and my father ordered the fish gratin. All three dishes were fresh and delicious, but I think the fish gratin was my favorite. So if you find yourself an Oslo looking for a delicious meal down by the water, come check out Fiskeriet.
