We too wanted to celebrate our last night in Stockholm by eating at Stockholm Fisk. We had had dinner at this restaurant the previous evening and found it good. So we decided to celebrate tonight with the supposedly huge dinner for two.
The previous evening I had asked the waitress if we could reserve one of the window tables. She said that it was not possible; the tables wee awarded when you arrived. So we arrived early and asked Daniel, the maitre'd, if we could have a window seat. He said "No" it was reserved for people of four. Daniel had a bit of a 'haughty air' about him. I asked again later about the table and he said, "No, a group has already reserved it." Hmmm, either Daniel or the other woman were not telling the truth. I even mentioned that we are staying at the attached hotel--the Radisson Blu. Daniel informed me that the restaurant had no connection to the hotel.
So we sat at a miserable table for two and watched as window seats for four remained available. A couple eventually came, took our requested table, had a light salad, and left. All in all, they stayed about 20 minutes. Meanwhile we're eating the supposed house special. Let's talk about that--it was a rip off. For almost 1,000 Krona we received King Crab that looked adolescent, a lobster that was at best shriveled, and a ton of prawns none of which were as large as my thumb nail. The six raw oysters were good--at least for now. Final bill with a glass of house wine and one sorbet--almost 1,200 Krona. Now we have to walk to Burger King to fill up.
All in all, we feel ripped. Perhaps a window seat would have made it more worthwhile. But I don't think so.
Ooops, One more thing. I charged the meal to our hotel room. Seems as if there is some connection.
Ooops, oops, one more thing. Our waiter, Tommi, was excellent. His service was prompt, he delivered everything with a smile, and he seemed to genuinely care about our meal experience. Tommi deserves a promotion--perhaps to Maitre'd.
