    Poor food, terribly overpriced and unfriendly staff. Stay away. There are plenty of other nicer places in Oslo.

    Den Glade Gris - Pork knuckle (374 krone)

    A delicious dinner where they focus on pork!! Service was also excellent. We made a reservation in…read moreadvance cause this place gets super packed. 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!

    The food coma is real. One kilo, the waiter told me. After the fact. Why I ate everything, who…read moreknows. At Oslo prices, it should have been an extra day or two worth of meals. 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.

    Came during lunch and ordered the chocolate brownie milkshake, the ramen burger, the umami burger…read moreand the truffle fries. Everything tasted good! My favorite was the milkshake but u wish it was bigger. If I come back, I would try one of their many beers.

    I ate at Kverneriet on a Tuesday in June. As they only opened their doors about a month ago, and…read morehave recently got rave reviews, we were not surprised to find a queue for tables. We waited for about 20 minutes, and the waiters seemed to be quite efficient in securing a rapid turnover. Both of the two waiters that tended to our table were very nice, professional and attentive - on opening a bottle of prosecco for us (we were celenrating ;), one of the waiters managed to spill a small piece of cork in the glass, but he promptly went to fetch another, and came back with a full glass. We chose the most popular burgers, the Boss and the Umami, along with fries, truffle fries, aioli and chili mayo. The burgers had enough different components to be interesting, but yet not so much that they could not be eaten the proper way (that is - with your hands, not using cutlery). The meat was grilled and succulent, and the flavours were very well combined. We were served ketchup, mustard and tarragon mayo on the side, so that each could adjust the amount of sauce to taste (I like a lot of sauce). If I had to criticise the burgers at all, I would say that I would prefer a slightly thicker patty that was a bit less well done. I also like fresh veg on my burger (which my burger did not have), but they have a variety with lettuce and tomato on the menu, so I could have chosrn that one. The fries, however, are beyond any criticism. They were perfectly crisp and fatty, well salted, sufficiently thick-cut, and served with your selection of sauce (which for us was aioli and chili mayo). The truffle fries had a subtle, but sufficient taste of truffle, and were sprinkled with fresh parsley. After the burgers and fries, we decided to share the two desserts on the menu along with a chocolate shake (they use Ben & Jerrys ice cream). The chocolate fudge cake with ice cream, candied walnuts and raspberry mousse definitely stole the show with its decadent intense chololatey flavour. The deconstructed berry crumble with lemon curd was good, but there was no taste of the advertised cardamom in the crumble, and it was simply not as exciting as the chocolate cake. We left feeling extremely full, but very happy and satisfied with our meal. I'm happy that Majorstuen has finally got its own "hip burger joint", and hope that Kverneriet stays for a long time!

    I liked the atmosphere in this restaurant. We sat at the bar but they do have both indoor and…read moreoutdoor seating. The bartender was attentive and friendly. And the food was delicious. I ordered the wine braised beef (okse) and it was so good I couldn't stop until I was done, despite being stuffed. But of course I couldn't resist getting dessert, I mean, I had to try a Norwegian dessert. I went with the traditional Apple crumble and it did not disappoint! It was fantastic. They also have a good selection of beer on draft and in bottle. I had trouble finding this place when I first tried to come here. The maps all show it slightly over more than it is, with the parking garage on the wrong side and the sign and entrance were hiding near the corner.

The waiter greeted me kindly but I had a hard time hearing him, not because of the noice level but because he talked quite quietly. At a first glance it feels a bit pricy but compared to the other places it is in the same area, since the fries are actually included - "Yey!". I just got the fond and I have to say that it disepoint... The onion rings are a bit soggy, the fries are the kind you get at McDonald's and the burger was a bit dull. The bread was dry and the burger had not much taste. It's not actually a bad burger but not good either. If you are here whit some friends, witch I recommend since the place have a fine selection of beers and the atmosphere is great, I guess that the burger is okey. I will probably come back, but not for the burgers...
