Restaurant Operakällaren

The 38 Essential Stockholm Restaurants

"From the ornate 1895 interior and traditional trolleys delivering aperitifs and cheeses, you might think Operakällaren is stuck in the past. But take a closer look and you’ll recognize modern updates in the dining room like giant, free-standing, angled mirrors. Traditional French and Swedish dishes, such as fried pigeon with green pepper sauce or seared foie gras with almond cream, are bolstered by seasonal Nordic ingredients and leading gastronomic technique. At Operakällaren, you can travel back in time with flambé and silver-plated trolleys without sacrificing modern tastes. [$$$$]" - Per Styregård
