Although in the menu you have a wide selection of dishes. I decide for the buffet because usually I have seafood and I wanted something different. If I did not like it I will be able to change it! :) Do not expect a spicy sauce, I had really big spoons of the chili in oil and a jalapeño is more spicy than that. The employees are really friendly and are pending of what the customers need. YTou do not get that kind of service in all the restaurants in Norway.

I enjoy smiling, happy, faces and since the custom around here is for people to keep to themselves, it's nice to walk into a coffee shop and be greeted with good eye contact and a smile, regardless of who is behind the bar. The glass front of the shop allows for fun people watching while you sit and drink your coffee too.

This is a terrific spot right in the center of town.

Other odds and ends for sale, such as bread and a small selection of gift items. Worth a visit!

Had the seafood chowder that was liquidy milky (not pudding type) and satisfying. It had shrimp, crab, clam and a bunch of herbs. The super soft bread and garlic ranch served with it matched. Lot of people were ordering the mussels and that would've been our next order but we had to meet friends elsewhere. Outside, it was festive and a little loud from the neighboring restaurant/club next door. I enjoyed it, but if you want more peace, go to the 2nd floor. Beautiful views.

Skagen is the vegan friendly option for people wanting to eat on the waterfront in Stavanger…read more They have real food for non-vegans too. The real food people eat better than the vegans here. * * * The vegan options are heavy on soy meat substitutes. Pescatarian wife looked at all that soy substitute and went for fish with no sauce. Her fish with no sauce was pretty dull - and so was her vegan rhubarb dessert. She picked at her meal. * * * I was ready for a hardy Nordic feast. They offer "small" dishes and "large" dishes, but the "small" dishes are full size platters that will make you waddle home. I had the platter of gravad lax with rye bread, potato salad and mustard sauce on the side. Magnificent salmon. fine mustard sauce, rye bread to kill for and potatoes to provide contrast. Was the salmon better with or without the mustard sauce? I debated this question for hours. To assist me in my great ponderings was a magnificent glass of first rate aquavit. It was mild rather than forceful, and I like my spirits forceful. But things were eminently pleasant nonetheless. * * * We were in Stavanger the week after Summer Solstice. They aren't kidding when they talk about the land of the midnight sun. The sun never sets on the Stavanger waterfront. The golden light goes on for hours and hours and hours. The sun sets very slowly. With enough beer or aquavit in your system, you set very slowly. You watch the people walk up and down the docks. You comment on the state of humanity. You pick at the various juicy morsels still left on your plate. The sun hangs there golden and glorious. A fine way to spend an evening Assuming you are not trying to forget your soy sausage.

Decent Chinese food. We visited Lai by Noodle Noodle on a Saturday night, and it was packed. I…read morethink the restaurant has gone through some changes since the earlier reviews, because I would say this is a $$$ restaurant and not a $ restaurant. The restaurant is nicely decorated and played house music during our visit. I tried the Yuku Sake cocktail to drink, we split the salmon sashimi and the king crab dumplings, and I ordered the vegan mapo tofu as a main. The cocktail was sour and not the most tasty. All of our food came at roughly the same time with sashimi arriving about 5 minutes ahead. The sashimi was tasty with a nice amount of sauce to complement the fish. The dumpling was room temperature and had an okay flavor but was not as tasty as I expected. The tofu was undercooked and the sauce was decent but could have used a bit more flavor. Overall, I had a hit-or-miss experience at Lai by Noodle Noodle and think there is room for improvement.
