Schönes, uriges Restaurant mit sehr freundlichem Personal (durften direkt noch eine Einführung in schwedisch Sprechen genießen) und unglaublich leckerem Essen. Vor allem die Soße der Köttbullar war super!! Wir mussten auch gar nicht lange warten. Auf jeden Fall eine Empfehlung!

Since I was there for the first time 15 years ago, I always stop at this place. Away from the touristy areas, this is a great place to spend an evening. Great traditional Swedish food and good service!
