Villa Paradiso Frogner

Great Art Nouveau interior and the food was fantastic too. In our party we had gluten free pizzas, the mussels, and the risotto. Everyone was pleased.

The pizzas were good, but for the price they have you can find much better in Oslo. Also, we were with a kid who ordered a pizza with salami. Unfortunately, it was quite burnt and the salami was too spicy for her. The drinks were just ok. The service though was good and fast. The place is very nice but very crowded. There isn’t much space between the tables so you can hear the whole conversations of the tables next to yours.

Pizza was very tasty, as were the starters! Atmosphere was busy, but service was pretty quick! Would go back again for sure.

An awesome Italian restaurant perfectly located. You can eat one pizza by yourself if you want or get as many as your party wants and share a slice.

Very good pizza. If you like classic pizza made from a tasty dough. The topping is simple and good. Service is friendly and the atmosphere cozy. Would come here again

Decent Italian food and not badly priced. We are at 4pm so not very busy. Nice team of staff.

Very nice café/restaurant. We had great pizza's here and the Buffalo mozzarella (with basil and tomatoes) was excellent and real mozzarella. Nice staff, although they forgot to give our main course order to the kitchen. They did make up with free ciabatta with ailolie. We would defenately come back.

Tasty food and amazing service! Also, highlight that our server was really attentive with our kids! If we come to Oslo we will definitely come back!

We came in on a Wednesday night and it was quite busy and there was live music. Our group of eight sat upstairs, an area of the restaurant they closed off earlier than the rest of the restaurant. Our group decided to share pizza. My favorite was the Quattro Stagioni, which is usually my favorite. It had tomato, mozzarella, shellfish, artichoke, mushrooms, salame calabrese, pecorino and oregano. We ordered four pizzas and it was just about too much! We couldn't finish everything but they did have pizza boxes for us to take them home. The pizza went great with one of the bottles of white wine they had available. It wasn't too too loud in the restaurant; we could still talk. Apparently the pizza is super authentic and I thought it was just fine.

My pasta was absolutely incredible. Basic red sauce over thick noodles with lots a grated cheese, and it was oh so good. Real Italian made by real Italians. Excellent service! I got my food almost before they had time to pour my glass of wine. Cozy atmosphere, nice big windows and great location. Couldn't have asked for a better place to come across on a Sunday night.

Visited this place for the very first time about a year ago. I'm not a very big fan of pizza, but my tablefriend insisted that I should give it a try, although I didn't order pizza, it actually looked tempting and delicious to me. The manager greeted us and showed us our table, live music was playing in the background and the drinks arrived immediatly, our glasses were never empty and we got different kind of drinks for every courses we had. As a starter we got focaccia and a platter of diverse cheese and dry-cured meat. As I mentioned I'm not a fan of pizza so I asked for something different and the chef managed to make some magic happen, I cannot remember the name, but it was creamy and somehow different. The pizza my tablefriend ordered looked quite delicious as well! Last but not least, their homemade applepie was delicious, and what's a better combo than applepie and ice cream?!

This place is great. Food is delicious. Came in fairly close to closing time and they had no issues with us as late-arrivers. Ordered the Margherita pizza and a beer. Good crispy crust, bubbled up, plenty of cheese. Wife got the Napolitano? (going from memory here) with capers and anchovies on it. People like what people like on their pizzas. Service was a little slow but it's not fast food. Just enjoy your drink and your company and they'll get back to you soon enough. If you're desperate to get things moving along, just get up and find your server - the place isn't that big. We're from the United States but have many friends in Oslo and several of them suggested this place. Local knowledge was good. Also, Frogner is pretty cool part of Oslo. Definitely worth strolling through. When we travel we always feel that little feeling inside about committing to a restaurant not really knowing what you're going to get. Rest assured, you'll like what's on the inside!

Wow this place has some amazing pizza. We are visiting from San Francisco and just stumbled upon the restaurant. We had the pizza and were hooked. We have our own wood fired pizza oven at home and know good when we have it in the week we were here we had pizza from there three more times.

It's better than the one in Grünerløkka! The pizza dough is everything you hope for. Thin and little charred, but fluffy to chew. The focaccia to start us off with was excellent too. Had also ordered the tartare. It was ok, but clearly bread and pizza are their forte.

Great place for Pizza or Italian food, probably the best in Frogner. Huge area for the middle of the city, with lots of interesting places to sit on two different floors, as well as outside. The biggest problems however are the crowds that come here, especially on the weekends. The price is also higher than the same restaurant in Grünnerløkka, so it's worth taking that into consideration.

This place gets a lot of great reviews and whilst I like the place, there isn't much that separates this restaurant from other general Italian places I've visited in Oslo. I will say that it feels quite authentically Italian and it has a lively atmosphere for dinner. if you are going on a busy weeknight, this might not be the place you want to go for a date. We both had pizza's, and whilst they were good, there was nothing that made it bad, or special in my opinion. All in all a good normal Italian restaurant.

5-stars for the food 2-stars for the service 5-stars for the decor and ambiance I've only been here once and it was on a Friday night. It was packed. We waited about 30 mins for a table, then at least 45 for our food after ordering. Fortunately the pizza was great once it arrived and so were the salads. The waitress wasn't very friendly but that may be the norm in Oslo. It seems like she could have at least offered bread while we waited or given us an update. I'd go again anyway.

Went here for a late Monday breakfast with an old friend and we were greeted warmly as soon as we set foot inside the door. Offered to us was the breakfast platter, and a free coffee of our choice. A nice caffeine kickstart came in the form of a double espresso; smooth and well-brewed. The platter was composed of orange juice, toast /w olive oil, fig jam, cheese (the sort escapes me), eggs, some succulent pieces of ham, and a tomato/rucola salad. Not only was it well presented, but the flavours complimented each other gracefully. Now, I'm only 25, but this was one of the nicest breakfasts I've had in my short life. For a very fair price (99,-) I'd recommend this any day of the week. (Added to the experience was, of course, the great service we received.) Addendum: As we got up to leave they started firing up their stone oven for the pizza. I've definitely got to try that the next time I visit!

Surprisingly good pizza topped with quality ingredients. We had the parma with arugula with right amount of toppings. This is my second favorite pizza place after Maschmann @ Skøyen! The day pasta was lasagna & it was bland & soggy just like it just been re-heat in the microwave. Strategically located at the corner of Solli plass next to BIT, there still has no sign outside but you will notice the diners from the outside. Has been full house since they opened, so call for reservation if you have a big party. They have 2 levels & a huge back area. Tastefully decorated with some art nouvea style similar to some diners you find in Amsterdam.

Met my translator Valkyrie here for delicious pizza & cappuccino in a very friendly, open and stylish space. Great place to have a long chat about strange & foolish things over outstanding food. I'll be back.

Impolite service. The manager was already complaining when we arrived that we were one person more than in our reservation, even though the restaurant was half empty. Then after we had our starters the fire alarm went off. The staff didn't know how to turn it off. After 30 minutes of loud ringing in our ears, we decided to leave. The manager insisted in a loud and intimidating tone that we would pay for all drinks. Also half a bottle of wine didn't get to finish. Not cool!
