Dry aged rib eye of unknown size served all by itself on a plate (sides are served separately).
Simon H.

A very nice locale with white tile, brass and cooky art, odd vintage chairs, white table cloth and candlelight. Svartengrens is a meat restaurant and the menu changes from day to day with the type of meat the restaurant has bought from their local, environmentally friendly and sustainable suppliers. "Local" here being in the greater Stockholm region, seeing as there are no farms in the middle of the city. Anyway, I like this concept a lot. The starter menu is small - only four dishes - two of them being scallops and oysters, the third being predominantly meat. I would have liked a wider range of starters, and having a choice outside of meat (which is what the main course would be made up of anyway). For the main course, you compose your own dish by choosing a type of meat (which will be served all by itself on an otherwise empty plate) and combining it with a side of your choice. It's a little bit frustrating that the menu doesn't state the weight of the steaks. I ordered a dry aged rib eye (of unknown size) with a side of jalapeño & cheddar croquettes, pickles and BBQ sauce. The fact that the waitress told me how they "usually prepare the meat medium rare" - rather than ask me (the person who was going to eat it) how I wanted it - had me worried. I said I wanted it rare. My concerns were justified: The meat came out medium rare. Pink and not red at all. Medium rare is still on the right half of the spectrum - so the meat was still tasty - but this is a matter of principle: The customer should get what the customer orders. I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more (and not have had my dinner mood spoiled by frustration over the fact that they had ignored my order of "rare") if the meat had indeed been rare. Service was good but not great - two waitresses shared a less than half full restaurant. I would have liked the waitress to come by after we had cut our meat to see if everything was in order - which, of course, had been my opportunity to tell her that it was not. So, my meat was tasty, sure. But it wasn't half as tender as I would have expected with it being dry aged for six weeks and all. This being a meat restaurant, I had expected more. Since it was Easter, my partner ordered the "Easter Lamb" which was lamb roast, smoked lamb sausage, chilli, garlic & lemon, Hasselback potatoes, haricot verts and lamb gravy (sides included in the dish). A great example of how they adapt the menu to current stock and season! We had alcohol free drinks which were nothing more than glorified lemonade served in classy glasses - but what would you expect - they were alcohol free: Take the alcohol out of a drink and you get lemonade. We looked at the dessert menu which was impressive, but when we passed on dessert the waitress apparently found it difficult to conceal her disappointment. If they hadn't messed up my meat they'd have received four stars. I'd come back and give them one more chance.

Meatplatter masterpiece

I've always ordered their meatplatter to share and its a very nice experience. The staff are amazing and friendly and i love that you can take home the leftovers. Very good at drinks and they have themes now and them that sre fun to attend

Gorgeous restaurant with down-to-earth yet very sharp staff, delicious food and a mouth-watering selection of cocktails. Definitely one of the gems of Stockholm. (Not really for vegetarians... Unless you only want to drink ;-))

Dessert that reminds me of Swedish forest
Florencia A.

I had the 5 course tasting menu. Better than I expected. Every flavor had a story behind it . Loved this place :)

Food was ok, music was loud and this would have been a better mid or end relationship date restaurant.

Mmmmm. Came here…read morewith a party of 25 people. I let Gustav, the owner, know the situation, and he graciously accepted our reservation, warning us that the place is small. The space was perfect. We took the downstairs area and the al fresco outside tables and put in our drink orders. Cesar (sp?) quickly and effectively made us all sorts of drinks. I recommend the Tuxedo No. 2 and the Negrini. Both were excellent. And then the food? Amazing. The veal was cooked with truffles, peas and capers and came out very juicy and savory. The shrimp on the shrimp sandwich was very fresh and the bread was delicious. Many of the people in our party said that the smoked sausage was the best they ever had. The mustard was also a standout. On top of all of these praises, you should go to Erlands for the waitstaff. I couldn't believe that 2 people could host a 25 person party and have time to joke around with us and wait on walk-in customers. Gustav and Cesar are the homies. +1 star for the decor, the coziness of the place, and the playlist! These guys like jazz music, so the night's tunes included hip hardbop tunes and hot swing. Thanks for everything, Gustav!

This place is enchanting! Tiny, cosy and stylish. Literally the place can fit maybe 20 people, but…read moreit's a good thing. It almost feels like someone's home with age-old photos of the owners grandpa, authentic furniture from the fifties and soothing tunes from past decades. I was here in the afternoon and since I was hungry I ordered the 'räksallad', which was good. It had tons of shrimps, avocado, lettuce, tomato etc. and a really nice lemony garlic sauce. The only minuses come from the somewhat soggy iceberg salad leaves and over boiled egg. I had a nice glass of Riesling with it. I've heard that they serve also nice coffee and good cocktails so this place seems to be perfect for any time of the day except for the morning. Can't wait to be back! Edit: This place also has WiFi and I must say that my heart skipped a beat when I heard the password. P e r f e c t o !

But it all have its price, and at this premium located spot, you will pay its price, and you will be happy about it, even though you wont get any gold. It can get pretty crowded later on, so be there in time, to secure your night in glam. A perfect place to start off your night at, or drop in for a cocktail. The atmosphere is great and the ceiling height among with all the other details, will give you the classiness you deserve. Biggest con is that sofas and armchairs provide you too great comfort, so great, that you might end up sitting here all night. Sit down, have a drink, enjoy...

We got a nice chair to sit & very good professional service, they come to your table, take your order & bring your drink to the table. It was perfect for a chat & a drink with a friend. Music is neither too loud nor too crazy ( lounge music) & you get a decent chair to sit & keep your honor (by not having to crowd others in a cramped space at the bar & stretch half way to the other side of the bar to get the bar tender's attention!) The crowd is pretty mixed, there were mature & middle aged people, very young(20+) groups & some couples. If you are looking for somewhere to have a drink & chat (& be able to hear each other!) this is really nice place.
