Should have used that as my cue *not* to eat at Khab Thai, which is horribly overpriced. I know Oslo is an expensive city, but at almost $18, which I would expect at a nice restaurant, but instead got something no better than a microwave meal. The employee was socializing with two women at another booth across the way before bothering to come over to me. I knew something was up when he made me scan my card twice for the meal (and I was charged twice). Clearly, people who eat here are probably half drunk and never been to the parts of Asia that these booths claim to make food from. Hard pass.

But first you gotta climb the steep stair up to the main area where you are greeted by a bar-look-alike counter. On the board, you see the summary of the menu, food on the left and drinks on the right. For detailed menu, grab the menu on the counter. On the left you will find an area with table & chairs where you can sit down. We tried the Hummus & Falafel 163kr and Hummus & Chicken 173kr plates. You will get a plate of hummus and another plate of pita, corn chips, beets salad & few other condiments. The hummus are not bad, a little bland & dry for my taste, I do prefer it to be a little more garlicky. As for the falafel, again, it was OK with lack of flavor & not very crunchy outside. As for the roasted chicken, it was decent & can get a little dry when dip with the pita. That being said, for the price, it really fills you up and I really liked the ambiance. Remind me of a hippy hangout spot with arts, photos on the walls and few knick-knacks for decor.

The best meal we had in Oslo!…read more Food: Amazing food, I ordered the oxtail and my boyfriend had the fish. They were both phenomenal. Beautiful presentation and great flavor. They also brought out a starter and a side of roasted veggies on the house. Service: great service! They took our coats at the door, checked on us regularly, we're very kind, and even brought us those extra bites:) Ambiance: beautiful restaurant, looks like it's attached to a hotel. Definitely dressy-casual at least, it would be a great place for a work dinner or nice family gathering. Price: About $30 (300 NOK) per main course. Overall: absolutely loved it. Would highly recommend!

I came here for breakfast and dinner…read more This restaurant says paleo in its name - but a lot of the menu items have milk in it which is not paleo, so if you're looking for strict paleo, this is not strictly paleo. However, the restaurant does holds true to the grain free and gluten free concept of paleo. Food was very good. We were surprised that a complimentary starter of celery chips and prosciutto with wild mushroom mayo was served. Additionally - a side of beets was served for the entire table which was also part of the meal but not on the menu, so pleasant surprises. The food was delicious, everyone licked their bowl clean. The prices are to be expected in Oslo. I bought a bottle of wine, a starter, entre and dessert for $130 ( everything was for one person). Note - this is not a set menu but there are options for that. There is also an English menu - forgot to take a picture of it. Service was great, our waitress continually checked in on us and even though it was closing time, she still asked if we wanted another bottle of wine. Due to the good experience with dinner, we decided to come back for the breakfast buffet which I highly recommend. The options were plentiful (eggs, reindeer, sausage, charcuterie, fruit, juices, breads -influding gluten free, you just have to ask for it, see pictures attached). It is $30 for one person for the buffet and it was worth it! I would come here all the time for breakfast. Note - you don't have to be staying at the hotel to do the breakfast.

They have a nice and casual, homey vibe going on and it was very much a packed restaurant an hour into our meal. They have been awarded a bib gourmand so we had to do their seven courses. Food in Norway has been of the utmost quality and extremely fresh, and this place certainly had that. Most dishes were unique and tasty with a few that were more simple and as expected. Their main protein dish fell flat as we were hoping for it to be medium rare and it was well done and dry. Overall, a huge deal with several dishes to try so we left quite happy from this meal. Also, make sure to reserve as I saw some people get turned around for not having a reservation.

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.
