Ling Long

We visited this place with my friend in October and wow - we broke all the flavor records! The food was exactly as described - and we loved that it’s meant for sharing, such a great idea because you get to try so many delicious dishes together! The starters were an absolute hit, beautifully presented and bursting with taste in every bite. The drinks were also fantastic truly some of the best we’ve had! 🍹 The chefs are doing an amazing job - you can truly taste the passion and creativity in every dish!❤️ It’s such a cozy and atmospheric place that we’ll definitely be recommending to everyone. The staff was super friendly and service was fast and smooth. A truly worthy spot - we can’t wait to come back! 🌟

We went for lunch. Service was very fast and effective as we took the day's suggestions. Sadly the food was not very tasty. The restaurant looks very nice. Next time. I would like to try the à la carte menu in the evening.

What a fun spot!! Excellent food and service. The place is hidden and away from the milling crowds around. Climb up the stairs and you’re transported to a street market-esq decor somewhere in south east Asia. Bonus points: tons of vegan options. The sichuan edamame and the smashed cucumber salad were amazing as were our other warm dishes. I wish I had room to eat more but was happy with the 4-5 dishes plus drinks we ordered between the two of us. Highly recommended!

Ling Long serves some of the best food in Stockholm, in my opinion! Their vegan dishes are delicious and flavorful. The menu isn't labeled, but you can just ask your server what's suitable if you have dietary restrictions.

A misplaced pearl! Situated in Östermalm, its energy would be better suited for Sodermalm! Easy to overlook while walking because hidden by half in an uphill, softly lit up by candles and lamps, this place boasts concrete walls and underground house music that seamlessly blend with the cozy industrial interiors. The relaxed and casual atmosphere is perfect for sharing Asian tapas and enjoying cocktails with friends, surrounded by modern art, abundant plants and Asian-inspired decorations. Perhaps I’d discourage going for business/romantic/family encounters, during dinner time!

Great asian influenced flavours. The menu is built to share mid sized courses. We tried their two tartars, beef and tuna. Also had some of their ribs. The ribs was a bit to salty. They are ok if you have 1-2. But try a full plate and it gets too much. Their pulled BangBang chicken was the best I had in a very long time. Amazing flavours in that one. We ended up ordering several of them. Happy you can these flavours in Sweden as well 😀

5-star beef tartar and mushroom dumplings, 1-star ribs and tofu. The ceiling of the dining room was totally exposed with all pipes and tubes visible, quoting my friend “looks like we are eating in the sewers”. The beef tartar was pleasantly hand chopped in adequate size, and the meat cut was without any tendons. It paired well with the chives infused oil and salmon eggs. The dumplings were full of umami, not too dry in the dough and not too wet in the filling, together with a coconut based foamy sauce that provides acidity in tributes to the traditional Chinese dumplings match with vinegar. However the pork ribs were undercooked, hard to chew on and way too salty. The fried tofu was also super salty, you need to drink a liter of water with these two dishes.

Really disappointing experience at Ling Long. From the moment we arrived, Their policy about groups over six people having to order a set menu is just ridiculous. We tried suggesting other solutions, but they weren’t willing to work with us at all. the only waitress was incredibly disrespectful and dismissive, which made the whole visit uncomfortable. It felt like they were more interested in sticking to inflexible rules than actually providing good service or making guests feel welcome. Definitely not coming back and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. There are plenty of better places in Stockholm where both the food and the staff are worth your time.

Service is the most terrible service I've witnessed anywhere between Guatemala and Hong Kong. Usually, where there is a will, there is a way but clearly did not want to accommodate us.

Great atmosphere, industrial luxury. Staff was friendly and attentive. I had Oumph Bang Bang which was delicious but there was too little of the very tasty sauce so it was rather dry. Otherwise 5/5.

Traveled from America, stayed at the hotel. This place is fantastic and the staff are wonderful.

Being vegetarian or vegan in Stockholm used to be really hard back in the days. I'm so pleased to find this little jewel of a place. Truly delicious food and heavenly fresh juices. Yum!!!

Drinks are overpriced and they are just mediocre. The vibe is okay but not the best place to spend your Friday. Not recommend.

Super nice vibrant asian share food" restaurant and cocktail bar in the center of Stockholm. There is a plenty of vegan food and really good cocktails.

I really like the Story Hotel's bar--not as an eating place, but for a drink. It's chic inside and has a back outdoor seating area that reminds me of a few places in NYC. Ling Long is the new asian inspired restaurant inside of that same Story Hotel and I really am a bit disappointed with it. I have only ordered food from the bar side once and have been very disappointed on that occasion, but considering this was a "new place" I thought that I would give it a try in the hopes that it was better. Nope. The lunch prices were a bit high for a casual lunch and closer to gourmet--without actually being it. I think I paid about 180:- and change for terrible chicken Bibimbap. I could think of a million places off the top of my head that would have been a better and cheaper lunch option in the area. I would be ok to pay a higher price tag because of the elevated location and ambiance this place provides (It does have a decently designed interior!) if the food was even just "good". However, this was far below my expectations. I've become a fan of those Panini Internazionale boxes that you can buy at ICA and take home to make Bibimbap yourself. I have to say that their grocery store box is like a trillion times better than what I got here. Ling Long's bibimbap was bland, uncolorful and had a slight hint of .... curry? ...I think. Not a fan. I will continue to come to the bar for a drink once in a while, because I like the look of the place. I will not be back for the food. =P

Here's another (a second) positive review for the Ling Long. Met business colleagues for a drink; was not too interested in the food. We ordered a variety of dishes -- they were a bit hit or miss. But the atmosphere was great -- sort of industrial - fusion - chic. Relatively loud and lively on a Wednesday night in December, which is saying something. Had a Yona pale ale -- very nice, brewed by Yo-Ho Brewing Company in Japan (style is like an American pale ale). Liked the atmosphere and character of the place. A little Blade Runner-ish. In the Story Hotel.

This place does not know how to make asian food. we ordered 6 dishes and none of them were good or prepared correctly. The papaya salad was just cut up papaya and cilantro, thats it no dressing no flavor these guys have no idea what they are doing. We also got the spare ribs and the pork dish, they were both over cooked and covered in some extremely salty sauce, pretty much the exact same dish just called two different names, Stockholm is very expensive so spend your money somewhere else bc this place is no good.

The food was way too salty. Everything we ate was just either too spicy (and we love spicy. I have a little bottle of hot sauce in my bag at all times) and/or too salty. Save your money.
