My experience was most enjoyable. The food was fresh and delicious. I'm going to be in Oslo for a week and of all my options I fully intend to return!

A Hidden Gem Worth Savoring This restaurant is an absolute favorite of mine. From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by a staff that is nothing short of wonderful—charming, kind, and genuinely warm. Their hospitality sets the tone for a memorable dining experience. The food is consistently delicious. Whether you're indulging in their perfectly cooked pasta, sharing a variety of tapas, or exploring other dishes on the menu, everything is thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. There’s a casual elegance to it all that keeps me coming back. While there are a few cozy seats inside, the place truly shines when you can sit outside—right on the pavement. It feels vibrant and alive, making it the perfect spot to relax, sip a glass of wine, and enjoy the buzz of the street as you eat. Highly recommended for a laid-back but high-quality meal with heart.

The place is so cozy and lovely. The staff are very friendly. The smell was so amazing so I had to ask and turned out it was the smell of newly baking banana bread. So we got coffee and banana bread. It was served warm with ice cream. Enjoyed every bite!
