Spinach ravioli and fish was really good, they gave bread with the buttery pasta sauce, which was a plus. Fish had a great pesto/spinachy base which was interesting and a new taste, was a great contrast to the fish. I can’t say the same for the Charkuterie and Cheese plate though, was nothing special. Still deserves a 5 due to mains, great wine selection and seats by the window.

Went here after work on a Thursday, fully booked on the website but there were a good few drop in seats, so no problem getting dinner on the spur. Lovely atmosphere, great decor but since no fabrics a little echoing and a bit loud. Service was attentive, they came often to check that everything was to our satisfaction.  Food was very fresh pasta with clear and clean flavors. The meat was also good and some fusion between Italian and Swedish cuisine? Can highly recommend both dishes! We will be back, to try it out again! The establishment left us curious for more.

Fun and odd pasta variations, not too big portions, tasty but not too big appetizers, fresh wines, lovely staff that were very easy going. Interior is rustic but quite minimalistic Scandinavian. We had a lovely time.
