Spectacular rooftop bar offering delicious bites all day round! We really enjoyed the freshly-made cheese fries (creamy, velvety & rich), chicken & waffles (tender, crispy & went really well with the 2 dips), & The French (really delicious carrot puree!) and our drinks. The servers were friendly, helpful & very kindly helped topped up our jar of cold water throughout the meal! Lovely dinner spot. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Nice view, good music, and lots of places to sit and enjoy a beer. Haven't tried food here, but to grab a beer and enjoy a twilight, I'd say it is worthwhile.

Great vibe and view of the city. Food is delicious, although a little expensive for large appetizer portions. Price is worth the experience so check it out at least, especially if you’re staying at the Scandic. Also an excellent place just for drinks and lots of tables to choose from in the bar area.

Menu recommends 2-3 items per person but would suggest ordering 1 item a person and adding more as you go. Food comes out quickly so you won’t wait long if you’re hungry. Sticky Icky Pork is excellent!

I waited almost half an hour to order, when I finally received the apatizer (costing 155 SEK) it was a minimal portion and despite being sold as tartare it was served without any bread. Asking for it, words of seevant ‚it would take too long due to full restaurant‘  price/service ratio 1 star

The only one cocktail I had was at first ok, but I am not sure about the quality of ingredients, including liquors, I had pain to stomach and reflux for several following hours. The view outside is really nice.

Menu sopra - Estate 2025 a Göteborg, Svezia: un viaggio culinario Caribbean-inspired.

Inizia il tuo viaggio culinario con una selezione di antipasti irresistibili. Il Corn bread con chili butter offre un sapore deciso e avvolgente. Per un'esperienza più ricca, prova il Bolo do caco, un pane di patata dolce con formaggio, chives e chili butter. I Melonas, meloni sottaceto con Tajin e coriandolo, portano una nota fresca e aromatica. Gli amanti dei sapori più sostanziosi apprezzeranno The bean supreme, un mix di bean-fritters accompagnati da malt-ketchup, mayo e slaw. E per gli appassionati di cucina messicana, gli Nachos & guac sono un must, con avocado, chili, cipolla e coriandolo. Per un tocco di raffinatezza, non perdere il Truffle donut, una ciambella di patata con tartufo e formaggio. Chiudi gli antipasti con l’Enchilada, una tortilla ripiena di maiale brasato, pomodoro, mayo, formaggio e esquites.

I piatti principali di questa stagione offrono un mix di sapori intensi e texture sorprendenti. Le Fries sono un classico con ketchup e mayo, perfette come accompagnamento. La House salad, ricca di bitter leaves, turnip sottaceto, kumquat e pomodoro, è l'ideale per una pausa fresca. Per chi cerca comfort food con un tocco innovativo, il Mac n cheese con salsa di formaggio e chili croccante è un must. Gli amanti dei sapori più audaci apprezzeranno il Ta tartar, un tartare di manzo con panna di formaggio e pepe di Aleppo, mentre il Crudo di halibut con maionese di ostriche, limone e aceto di sea buckthorn porta un tocco di mare raffinato. Per un'esperienza più avventurosa, Spice & spears combina asparagi verdi, salsiccia andouille e chili croccante. Gli appassionati di crostacei adoreranno il Crab n'craw, con granchio, astice e salsa salsa macha.

Per concludere il pasto, lasciati tentare dai dolci che uniscono cremosità e sapori esotici. La Coconut cream, con bavarese tonka, marshmallow di cocco, nougatine di mandorle, lime curd e meringa italiana, è un'esperienza di gusto unica. La Cheesecake factory combina biscotti croccanti, fragole e un tocco di chili per un finale dolce e piccante. Per gli amanti del gelato, lo Sundae con popcorn, vaniglia arrosto, gianduja di nocciole e ciliegie Maraschino è il modo perfetto per concludere questa avventura culinaria.
