We stopped in upon arriving to Sweden. It was the first place walkable fron the hotel that was still serving food at close to midnight. Even after first checking yelp, most of the places we visited were closed outright, and for others, the kitchen was closed.
We were initially worried about the dress code, as we were both in (slightly torn) jeans, one of us in flip flops, and having just come off an 18 hour flight, but the rest of the people in suits didn't seem to mind. Swedes are just a well dressed crowd, apparently. We both felt comfortable in the crowd (although I can't wait to shower!)
Of course my phone was dead after the long flight, so I ran around finding chargers, which existed but were a bit scarce near the few open tables, so the wait staff volunteered to plug it in behind the reception desk and bring it back later. The staff were fantastic in general, bringing us chopsticks and crackers when we requested, and I did enjoy the triple helping of free bar snacks.
Navigating the prices for an american is always hard in a new country, but the prices were reasonable for a fancy expensive american restaurant.
As per the food. The shrimp cevice and the green rosemary olives were fantastic. The shrimp comes with salmon caviar, and the olives were a fantastic end to the meal. I might skip the mini mozzerella balls; I was unimpressed with the sauce, which tasted like sun dried tomatoes in ketchup. The drinks were great and unique.
Scratch all of that. They just asked us to leave since one of us was wearing flip flops. The manager is now yelling at our waitress. Would have been 4 star, but now getting a 1.
