I imagine this would be a good place for a first date...show her you care, but don't lose too much $$$$$ in case the date goes bad. (Who doesn't like dogs? Dump her!) Staff was polite, but seemed exhausted from a working a busy day during Constitution Day(their 4th of July). I think it was two 6 ounce fillets. 210kr/$28 Salmon plate...hard to tell in my photo, but salmon portion is about 2 times what you would get in America. Delicious! 159kr/$21.20 seafood salad...see photo. Norwegians have a different interpretation of "Seafood Salad" than in America...just look at the vast amount of seafood on that "salad". The ratio is awesome! America can learn a lot from Norway! Prices might seem high by American standards, but in Norway tax and tip are already included in restaurant prices, so its really the same as America. But drink prices were quite high, so we just drank water. I've read that Norwegian restaurants are used to this..I think... (Note: At time of this review, the US dollar was up 50% against the Norway kroner...$1 = 7.5kr vs $1 = 5kr just a couple years ago)

Zupperia is a plain ordinary run-of-the-mill European cafe…read more Which means it's wonderful. * * * A word here on European cafes. Knock the stereotype out of your mind that a European cafe is an exotic cosmopolitan place. Cafes do not look like the ancien Europe of the 1890's or 1920's or 1940's with Ernest Hemingway at one table, Jean Paul Sartre at a different table and Toulouse Lautrec painting people's pictures in a corner. People looking for the cliched European cafes of American's postcard imaginations are sitting ducks for the tourist trap operators. The swindlers buy some downtown real estate, decorate it in centuries old style, and charge you triple the going rate for mediocre food so you can have "the authentic European experience." A European cafe is simply a plain old everyday restaurant with a full bar. Take out the liquor and it is another version of a diner on New Jersey's Route 17 or a coffee shop on the Upper East Side. Jersey diners and Manhattan coffee shops are great places. Whether we are talking diner or coffee shop or Euro cafe, The best places have a substantial menu. There is some local food with regional dishes. There is a lot of globalized international food. It is all everyday stuff. The kitchen is good. What you are going to get is going to be comforting and tasty. It doesn't matter if the decor is 1920's or mid-century functional or 2010's normal. What matters is you are going to get a decently priced plate of normal food that will taste good and keep body and soul together for the next couple of hours. * * * Zupperia does just fine as a Euro cafe. They have fish soup or reindeer or raspeballer if you want to go Nordic. They have tortilla wraps or Thai curry if you want to go exotic. You want burgers or lasagna? They got that too. The wife and I went with tofu and vegetables in teriyaki sauce. There was a lot of it. The teriyaki sauce was homemade and seductive. The vegetables were first rate. (They had a lot of fine sweet red pepper from Holland. Dutch red peppers make everything good.) After all the crazy eat-everything-Nordic-you-can-get-your-hands-on That we had engaged in in the previous days, Having some basic tofu and vegetables restored bodily health and mental sanity. And that is exactly what is supposed to happen at a Euro cafe - Even if it is a steak frite or a strogonoff sitting on your plate.

Lovely restaurant located right along the Bergen waterfront!…read more Zupperia offers a wide array of dishes. Everything from seafood, to reindeer soup, to curries. There is something for everyone. I had the teriyaki salmon and it was some of the best salmon I've ever had. The Japanese BBQ sauce paired fantastically with the fish, and the veggies and rice were just as yummy. The fish was cooked perfectly for my taste (a little on the moister side), and the dish was actually fairly large and plenty filling. Service was great. Our waitress was super friendly, knowledgeable of the menu, and spoke great English. Prices were very fair by Norwegian & Bergen standards. My meal was just over $20, the total bill for two people was around $60. If I had spent more time in Bergen I definitely would've come back to try another one of their dishes.

The rest of the sushi is good but doesn't justify the price at all IMO. It is so expensive although I guess everything in Norway is. Don't even bother with the edamame with the spicy or sweet sauce. The sauce was all sugar and no flavor. It was gross. The area to sit is nice with all the glass walls and ceiling to look outside though. I even saw some celebs like Kygo visited before haha. However, I wouldn't come back on my own. I'd much rather go to nama for good sushi or if I want cheaper sabrura.
