Restaurang Hantverket

Unquestionably, one of the best meals I've ever had. And to say the star of the show was a bowl of tomato soup, sounds ridiculous, but it is transcendent! I will forever dream about this bowl of soup and hope to one day be able to return for one more spoonful. It was unlike any bowl of tomato soup I've ever had. It was light and refreshing, and filled my body and soul with utter joy! I do love a grilled salad, and the grilled iceberg lettuce with baked cod did not disappoint. The two elements with what initially appeared to be potato wedges, turned out to be light and flaky pastry. I may have licked my plate! The struva with duck liver was crispy and savory, creamy and delectable. We had to stop ourselves from having just one, they are that good. The friendly staff, the warm environment, and the unique and tasty cocktails made for a perfect final meal in Stockholm. And it's one of the reasons I'll be returning just as soon as I can. If there had been a cookbook in English with that soup recipe inside, I would have certainly brought that home with me to try my best at recreating those flavors. Thank you Restaurant Hantverket, you will live in my DNA forever.

We had a great dinner here. Service was amazing - really warm, attentive and personable. Soda pop cocktail also really nice (my husband says it's the best cocktail he's ever had). Food is artfully done and quite creative - standouts would be the green tomato soup (creamy while still light and full of flavour) and the thinly sliced beef with artichokes (so umami).

Hyped by the recommendations online and the great rating on Google I was really excited to try out this seemingly high class restaurant. And yes, on the surface everything appeard to be perfect. The location is designed very stylishly and classy, the staff is well trained and accommodating, the cocktails are delicious (!) and the presentation of the food is very inviting. But were it failed for me was the actual food itself, the flavours, the most important part about a restaurant. As recommended I ordered 1 dish from each of the 4 groups (snack, starter, main, dessert). As a snack I went for the signature hasselback potatoes. As mentioned the presentation was delightful and I had high hopes for these ones so you can imagine my disappointment when I bit into the first one and tasted... barely anything. The potatoes were cold (I guess that's a choice) hard and chewy and the only flavour came from the sour cream. I thought maybe the chef just had a bad day but the few low-rating-reviews on here agree with me so I am not the only one. Next the lemon cured mackerel. I could kind of taste the idea behind the dish but even for me as a salt lover this dish was almost inedible because it was so salty. I know a lot of people who couldn't have finished it. As my main I chose the pork chop which tasted alright but not special and the mix of different ingredients didn't work together very well for me. The dessert was good but you can't really mess up ice cream and berries. I really don't know if I caught a bad day, if my taste works differently from most reviewers or if everyone simply thinks they have to give 5 stars because it's a posh restaurant with fancy looking and sounding food. Very disappointing and not worth the money (except for the cocktails!).

We loved everything we ate tonight! The presentations were surprising and the food was delicious! The salmon tartare was my favorite and the “bread” was delicious, though very rich. The kalventrcote had a wonderful mix of flavors (also very rich) and the torsk was a great summer dish. Also the cucumber green tomato mocktail is a must order if you get the bread…perfect combo!

This was such an unforgettable culinary experience, a perfect combination of flavours, mixing of ingredients , coupled with exquisite presentation. We were a group of three who ordered various dishes, all shared which maximised our ability to try as many dishes as possible. Every dish WOW’ed us. To top it off; attentive service and great ambiance. Great value for money too - the food is exquisite.

Unfortunately, the food I ordered arrived with a hair right on top of it. The staff was able to provide a new plate, however, there was no item taken off of the final bill. It is a shame that such a highly regarded establishment would be so dismissive about hygiene.

Fine dining without being too pretentious or too bougy. Loved that the staff just wore normal clothes and loved their service. The cocktail ”FOAMA” is a must. DON’T mess this up, do not leave this place without trying this beautiful red cocktail. The Salmon tartar is a must. The fried hasselback potatoe was a little bit overrated for my taste. It was good but nothing surprising compared to other dishes. It was rock hard when I ordered it and maybe it was fried too hard or maybe it is a preference from my side. Anyways.. I had the shrimp sandwich, ribeye and white asparagus. The white asparagus and shrimp sandwich were 10/10. I think the ribeye could do well without the mustard seeds. For the dessert I recommend the fried donut.

An excellent dining experience! We enjoyed all the dishes we selected, as well as the attentive servers. We visited on a warm day and were seated at the back of the restaurant, where it got quite hot, but sometimes that’s just life.
