Very good restaurant with not so many options, but well executed dishes. Very friendly, knowledged, and attentive staff. Great atmosphere and simple decor that creates a sense of intimacy. Would come back!

A bit on the expensive side, but then again this is Sweden.

So glad I decided to try out this restaurant.  The lady who helped me could tell I was only visiting the area, and she was very nice.  Her white fish recommendation was really good, especially the brussels and potato rosti that came with it.  Would come here again if I’m ever back in the area. 👍🏼

What an excellent surprise. My girlfriend booked a "mystery restaurant", that turned out to be this little gem - and fancy finding a place like this in Kristianstad (no offense). Small menu, but everything was excellent. Pork cheeks are one of my favourite cuts, and I am not afraid to say that these were probably the best I've ever had.
