Olson's

Sweden vs Switzerland game viewing was great. The Coffee and Cinnamon Buns Rocked. My wife and I discovered this place about a year ago. We come here for the Coffee and Atmosphere. They Have Swedish Products Ranging from Books to Swedish Fish Gummies. We Love it!

Excellent deli. Sandwich was really simple but well done - the addition of Swedish mustard and mayo really helped it stand out. Very relaxed atmosphere and diverse range of ages in the patrons. It’s fun to come here and hear some of the locals speaking Nordic languages.

Bright little piece of Scandinavia in LA, limited menu but the essence of simple quick food, grab lakes tasty and the unpretentious honest little cafe a refuge from the club over hyped.

I recommend the gravlax and the Havarti with sausage. Good unpresuming food at a reasonable price ($12.50 for the gravlax served in a brioche bun and about $10 for the cheese and sausage sandwich).

I love this place so much. Every time we're in Los Angeles we stop here. It's easy to get to and there is usually parking right out front. You can order counter service and sit and eat in the restaurant or get food to go. We love the herring, beet salad, skanska toast - basically everything. They also have a candy section where you can pick out what you like from bins. The gift shop is darling too - we always buy a Swedish book. It's a truly wonderful place.

This place is wonderful and friendly. They have a good selection of imported Swedish Staples, I only wish there were more. The food from the deli is delicious and it's lovely to have a little piece of Scandinavian fare stuck in the middle of Los Angeles.

I have no idea why this place only has 2 reviews at 3 star and 1 star. Olson's makes some dank sandwiches. First of all the have delicious pate, which I can almost never find on a sandwich. Beets and pickles are amazing, and I don't even like pickles. Also the staff was really friendly when I went, so I don't know what the other reviewer is talking about.

Been there since 1948! Best place in town for authentic hand-made swedish fare! Around 11 for sandwiches. The pastries made daily. Swedish candy on the wall! Try the Grav Lox. The fish isn't smoked, it's cured and the salmon will melt in your mouth. The swedish meatballs are a must! I'm working my way through the menu, but I've really enjoyed this treat.
