I don't usually have the habit to go for the same on the menu each time, but the chickenburger here…read moreis amazingly good. The chicken is breed the old fashion way- Breath of fresh air, fresh oat, wheat and corn and this combination makes the meat so juicy and tender. The burger itself is boneless (they remove bones), coleslaw, bbq sauce and a good dressing on top of a amazingly good bun. The bun actually makes the whole difference. It's so moist and tasty when you let the burger sit for a minute(if you got the patience to wait), it just suck up all of the good dressing and bbq sauce and that combined with the juicy chicken just makes it even better. I tend to go for the burger whenever I'm down at the local football pub watching a game and I combine this meal with a Brooklyn Lager. Good taste combined. The service is also great. No mocking around. Quick and done. Since they started up their local shoppe at Mathallen, the price has risen from a comfortable 60NOK to 90NOK. I personally think that's a little steep but I can't resist it. It's worth it. They also got a good chicken sandwich, but I've never eaten it. (Never change a winning team) but I've heard it's also very good. It's not only burgers and sandwiches at Stangeriet, they also sell wings, thighs and whole chickens. It's definitely worth a try and a chicken for sunday supper is a winner.

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!

As rare as the eclipse, but almost as beautiful unless you stare at it for too long. The spicy burger, whose name I won't pretend to know how to pronounce, was very good. Spice level was just about right (for me) so probably 'quite' spicy for mere mortals. Accompanied by the onion rings with its own dipping sauce and a beer with the best logo I've seen for a long time... it was a mighty fine afternoon. Though the burger was fantastic, it wasn't quite enough for me to remember it for the rest of my life. Would I eat here again? Certainly would. Can I recommend it to burger aficionados? Definitely.

It was fun to go through the meats, cheese selections and spices. We finally sat down to eat at the cafe. The woodfire oven looked very nice hut the seating area was not cozy or comfortable. In fact it was cramped and people waiting in line to order were hovering around people who were sitting and eating. The pizza was delicious. Thin crust and just the right juicy, if you know what I mean. The vegetarian focaccia look very good but it wasn't good to eat. The bread wasn't tasty and the cheese tomato combo was just not right. The Vanilla Cronut was a lot like the original NY Cronut and I liked it a lot. Will definitely have the pizza and Cronut if I come back. The desserts looked good as did the breads. Maybe I'll try the olive bread next time. The thing about this particular neighborhood of Skøyen is that it's too cold and deserted even on a Saturday afternoon. This place makes me feel cut off from the world, like a modern and fun-looking ghost town. Ikke koselig! Don't know if I'll go back here.

If you order the big burgers, don't forget napkins because the paper wrappers (which help keep the cost of that burger so low) are one-size-fits-"most" :-)

Then, we ordered off-menu and got an Aviation and a Sazerac, which the bartender whipped up for us. My Aviation had egg whites in it per my request and it was amazing. Both my husband and I agreed they were the best we've had anywhere so far - and we drink a lot of cocktails. I would recommend this place to anyone, but especially people who aren't from the area.

However, for some strange reason, hamburgers are supposedly popular in Scandinavia, and are usually the cheaper option. We were really hungry and ended up here after a really busy day exploring this city. I got a cheeseburger here, and after putting some lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup and a little mayonnaise, it was a very juicy burger, combined with the softness of the bun. The price was fairly reasonable for Norwegian standards, it was less than 150 NOK. The fries here are decently good and have a nice crisp. Another good choice is their kebab platters, and I also think the prices are also reasonable. We sat by a nice glass window, and you could do some "people watching" from there. The people who worked there were fairly nice, but you might have to speak in the simplest English words possible. Overall, if you are looking for a somewhat inexpensive and simple lunch/dinner in a good location in Oslo, this place might be a good choice. I don't think it is an amazing restaurant in a city like Oslo, but you can get your stomach full without spending too much money.
