According to our sources (e.g. Friends we are staying with in Sweden), many restaurants in Sweden…read moredon't make money on their lunch menu. Since most locals don't eat out habitually, the lunch menu exists more to keep a restaurant on the public's radar rather than as a means to make a profit. Thus, many lunch menus present great deals to entice eaters to return later for a more lucrative dinner out. This is surely the case at Yalla Yalla. My husband and I were wondering around the Linné neighborhood, feeling peckish, when we noticed the lunch specials posted at this Mediterranean restaurant. For under ten bucks (65 kr), we got salad bar access, an entrée, coffee, and a cookie. It sounded good and we were hungry. We anticipated a quantity/quality trade off, but boy were we wrong. This meal was the intersection of excellent, cheap, and abundant. The salad bar included a wide variety of tasty pickled vegetables, cumin spiced potatoes, fried and plain pita, greek salad, olives, and assorted fresh vegetables. Our entrees (flank steak with potato purée and bernaise sauce for him; moussaka for me) were generously sized, delicious and artfully presented. For example, my husband's flank steak arrived on a wooden plank, the purée piped elegantly around the edges and surrounding pools of fresh bernaise and vegetables. Everything was seasoned excellently and seemed made of high quality ingredients. For reals, this would have cost at least $20 in San Francisco, and thats without the salad bar and coffee/pastry. Highly recommended, particularly for those looking to eat well on a shoestring.

I just recently found this Turkish themed restaurant and decided to try it out tonight. What a gem!…read moreI cannot believe I've missed it. This is posh compared to many others. It is located on a slope giving a terrific view of church and park. It is tastefully oriental decorated - stucco in the ceiling and walls with mosaic and wallpaper accordingly. The staff is so professional, attentive and serviceminded. The menu has a wider selection than most restaurants around. We went for the starter with 13 (!) of the chef's choices. Mostly consisting of dips like tsatsiki but vey tasty. The main course portions are HUGE so go easy on the tasteful bread if you want both starter and dessert! The only down side might be that dishes with a distinct flavors might be a little too much with such huge portions. Maybe offering meze (small plates) not only for the veggies could be an alternative. We couldn't resist having dessert even if we were full. The chocolate fondant was perfectly sized - meaning smaller - after this mastodont dinner. The pastry with cream and mascarpone is large. They are both really lovely. I can't wait to go back. They accept AMEX.

This place definately has feeling! Great athmosphere and the design, bar and view is also nice…read more They have big candle chandeliers standing in the corners and crystal chandeliers hanging at several places. Service was great and we got everything on our plates explained for us. We ordered the meze plate and four wonders if the sea and splitted them between us two for a total of 480kr. I can recommend to do that. The meze plate is good but it was mostly cold bread and sauce dishes. We were satisfied because we shared it but it would have been disappointing by it self. Overall a nice experience. Take the mussels, they were really good!

It is a bit cramped and I found the staff inattentive. As far as I understand it is first come first served. Or is it? I've been turned down when I've called them in advance. They have a decent after work (aw) bar menu on Fridays - be here at 4 pm. Naaah not for me, but I guess i will give it another try.

What a letdown. Took forever to get the order done. Bartender had to be reminded three times to add…read morea beer to the order. When the food finally arrived, items were missing including one whole plate. Service was poor even when the place wasn't anywhere near half full, even by pandemic standards. To add insult to injury, the bill had neglected some of the "package deals" advertised at the door. Avoid at all cost.

The concept is like going to a circus as a kid,and there were lots of kids in the place when we went,but it didn't feel like only for kids like Chunky Cheese. You need to order from their app, and if you don't have wifi,they provide free wifi and, as my girlfriend discovered after a full day at work, her iPhone was almost dead, our waiter provided us with a battery bank to recharge her phone. The usual tapas you expect here in Sweden, and I enjoyed them all. Bacon wrapped dates, fish and chips, meatballs, cheese, etc. They have a fun cocktail menu and I enjoyed my cocnut rum concoction. You order and then get a message to go pick up your food. I didn't like going to pick up my food. It is crowded and there are people carpets dogs and chairs to weave in and out to get your food. Plus a little covid paranoid as I am, the less people I need to squeeze past, the better. Once you get to your seat there is a 2 level platform to put your small plates on between you and your tapas partner like a high wire act in the center ring of this circus. Oh, I forgot, when you come in, they give you some popcorn and the smell of popcorn is always a positive one for me. Overall I give this a 4 stars and look for an excuse to go back.
