So last night we went to Bockholmen for julbord, one of the few places apparently that provide it…read moreone extra day more Its like being in someone's house, so different from all the other places I've been to for julbord these past 25+ years. Its not some well oiled machine like Ulla VWnblad or Ulriksdal; excellent though they are and indeed favourites for many years; more a friendly - but efficient - experience Its cosy, lots of lights...right on the water, must be a fantastic view in the summer - so definitely a place to return to for a different reason There are 9 courses - I managed 8 but was sparing on quite a few...you will see from the photos...didn't leave stuffed but very nicely full...one could have been seriously piggy! And a long list of aquavit, including 2 home made, horseradish and dill...the horseradish was apparently very good, I just stuck with the OP Andersen All very nice, well presented, well put together, well cooked - you can see the chefs through the hatch and of course talk to them when you get your slices of suckling pig! Lots of people serving, so no issues there either - and all with excellent English - it is Sweden after all All in all. a very good experience...and the tower lit up across the way was a stunning sight - it does change colour but every time we were outside it was as you see it in the photo Ps - for some reason the taxis won't take you across the bridge to the door - or back. Seriously cold wind last night and a taxi waiting in the wrong place was not fun and we froze for 20 Minutes (Taxi Kurir take note)

Great location, near the subway (so quite accessible from city center)…read more I had the grill buffe at 285SEK/pp. It was fresh and quite big. But the logistics were a nightmare, the horseshoe shaped line was always crowded , causing us to que a long time for food every time. Its ok at a lunch buffe priced at 150SEK but not for a "premium buffe"

One word: Ew. My…read morepizza, the Honolulu, was totally delectable. Super duper tasty. But guess what? Super duper tasty pizza is not enough if you are swatting away flies from your pizza and your drink every ten seconds. My friend and I came for pizza on a Friday night, and the place was empty - not a great sign, especially in a restaurant so near student housing, I would say. The staff were not unfriendly but not friendly either - basically just uninvolved. The sofas are old, spotted, stained, torn, and gross. But the main problem is the flies. It's simply not cool! We sat on one side of the restaurant and ended up getting up to move before our food was even served. But even on the far opposite side of the restaurant, there were tons of flies! The prices are average for a pizza place - not as cheap as I was led to believe when I heard it was 'student pricing'. In short, if you want a decent pizza, sure, get takeaway. But don't go here.

Food = 100 Staff = 100…read moreSofas/chairs = 90 Overall = 99.9 Food is nearly perfect, it is very delicious infact and would recommend to anyone, there are a variety of choices and I have tried a lot and nearly every single one is perfect. Staff is very friendly when you talk to them, they won't bother you, they basically does not engage. Sofas and chairs are infact a bit old but they are very comfortable. So I'd say nearly perfect restaurant and I would recommend it to anyone.

This is an awesome hotel in Solna. Well worth my one week stay…read more The hotel is basically brand new (opened in January 2016) with a modern touch, unique from all the other major hotel chains we all know. The theme of the hotel is all to do with winery and has a great collection of wine. They have their own branded wine that they make in-house. The hotel also has a beautiful lobby and bar area on the first floor. The rooms are beautifully laid, comfortable, and quiet, however, they are a little small. The staff is friendly and helpful. They have one of the good breakfast meals and are located in close proximity to the Mall of Scandinavia. You can also access the bus close by, but to get to the train, you'll have to get a taxi. You can also rent the bicycles they have to get around. The Winery Kitchen Restaurant on the first floor has a nice menu for dinner and you need to check it out when you stay here. They also have a pizza restaurant across from the check-in desk which really has awesome food and drinks. Of course, don't forget to sign up for the winery tour! They have a winery just behind the front desk and you can see the oak barrels used to store wine. You can always request to have the tour conducted in English. Overall, wife and I enjoyed our week's stay here.

Another first, this time 5500 miles away in Sweden. This cute little pizza cafe is just a couple…read moreminutes walk from the AC Marriott in Solna. We arrived close to opening, which in Solna for most businesses is around 11 am. The cafe was amazingly clean, nicely decorated and open to see even the kitchen. The toppings were on full display, fresh not bagged veggies, beautiful meats. We ordered 2 pizzas, a kabob pizza, basically imagine a gyro in pizza form. The meat was some of the best I have ever had. It was different from the processed mush meat used in gyro, this was real cut roasted meat not processed through a blender. Amazing fresh tomatoes, peppers and yes believe it or not lettuce. Topped with a tzatziki sauce and a slightly spicy sauce. Pure delight. The second pizza was called the Al Pacino, Salami, if I am not mistaken was Genoa, peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, onions and olives. The sauce was delicious and the crust absolutely amazing. This crust was amazing thin, thinner that US thin crust. In Sweden you will find more zero sugar drinks than normal drinks and for most soda type drinks there are many more flavors than the U.S. If you are in Solna Sweden and are looking for pizza, this is a must stop. Excellent job!

Oh & did I mention that everything is homemade & that they strive to serve ecological, fairtrade & locally produced food & drinks? For example they make their own apple juice with apples from the neighborhood. There is a beautiful outdoor seating & a pier with some tables. Another great thing is that its possible to rent a kayak from Brunnsvikens Kanotklubb and paddle here, make land and have a rest & a coffee & cake (the buns are huge & really tasty).

This place is located half way through the hälsans stig, which is a walking trail of about 16km…read more After walking this far, you'd naturally want to sit down and catch your breath. So it's good to have it there. However, if you come there with your friend who makes an order and you don't, because you have some food with you and no money -- don't count on hospitality. The hostess won't let you eat your sandwich. You'll still be sitting there, tired and hungry, waiting for your friend to finish before you can continue your walk. The friend would feel completely ill at ease because had she known the "deal" she wouldn't have ordered anything in the first place. Apparently, the hostess considers this awkward "punishment" situation to be better than two friends enjoying the pitstop and spreading a good word about her café afterwards. Tried to convince myself that I shouldn't be angry with the woman because maybe her business is not doing that great... but at the end of the day, keeping an organic-sustainable business should come with a kinder attitude. "If I let you eat it, then everyone will start coming here and eating their own food" vs. you are with a friend who ordered, then it's OK if you eat your sandwich. Just wanted to let people know what to expect in cases like ours today!

A bit off the path for foreigners. We decided to stop at a random bus stop and pick a place to eat…read more This place had the best reviews in the local area but they were all in Swedish. Figured if the locals liked it we would give it a shot. Turned out to be the best food we have had in our 4 days in Stockholm so far. Met two guys who recently graduated college and moved back home here and live right around the corner. They said this was their favorite Italian place. I got the kabob and it was MASSIVE. Double the size of a burger at Red Robin. My wife got pepperoni pizza. We didn't finish our food and we were starving when we showed up. It's right next to a bus stop "Kevingeringen" so it's easily accessible if you want to make a trip here.

As this is one of a handful of restaurants in Bergshamra, I'd been wanting to check it out…read more The menu essentially consists of pizza, pasta and a few meat-and-fries type dishes. I decided to go for the chicken Ceasar salad, which was very large and filling, the vegetables fresh and the chicken well-cooked. The dressing appeared to be a bearnaise with some pesto sprinkled in it. A bit odd but pretty good. My husband had the pork filet with bearnaise, crayfish(!), asparagus, stir-fried vegetables and fries. The meat and vegetables seemed to have been fried in some kind of soy sauce. That plate had a lot of things going on and was a bit too hectic for me, but my husband enjoyed it. All in all, I'd give the place a 3.5. Everything was well-cooked but the menu composition is a bit off.
