I visited Kontrast on my 29th birthday with my girlfriend. The moment you walk into this restaurant, you immediately feel like someone special. The staff gives you their full attention. As soon as they see you’ve finished, they appear at your table right away and suggest the next courses. They really know their craft. They can answer any question and are happy to chat about anything. The dishes were exquisite. You absolutely must order the drinks paired with each dish — it really elevates the whole experience. The chefs work with incredible focus. It’s definitely worth going there, as it’s something completely different from an ordinary night out at a restaurant. I will come back.

Kontrast was our second Michelin star restaurant experience in Oslo. It has 2 red and a green stars. We really loved the place, cozy, welcoming. Seating area is facing the kitchen. Music selection was a perfect match for our age and I couldn’t helped my self to sing. Also, another table joined and we started chatting. Now we have new friends to visit in Prague. Food, atmosphere, service all was so good, a nite to remember. Also, we added up another signed menu to our collection. Don’t miss!
