Upscale, small-plates, sharing-style restaurant but without the snobby feel. Servers are young, exuberant, and know the menu well. Food is unique and experimental; they put together ingredients in ways I haven't seen or thought of before but somehow work together with strong and vibrant individualistic flavors. Ate here several times and saw the dishes change and evolve over a short time. With sharing, prices are reasonable for Oslo and some portions, particularly the meats, were more substantial. The decor is a mix of old, classy, and exposed industrial (an old bank vault is next door, but stainless steel restroom sinks). Overall, one of the most memorable places in Oslo, for dining or conferences. Make a reservation.
