There are menus in Norwegian and English, and our server had no problem with English. I started with the beet and Gorgonzola salad. I really enjoyed it. The beets were very sweet. The vinaigrette was perfect. All in all, a very good salad and quite large. For the entree I had the stockfish which my Norwegian friends highly recommended. It is cod that has beef dehydrated then rehydrated and cooked. It comes with bacon on top for a smoky flavor. There was also a mash of green peas and a potato salad. There is also a poached egg on top. It's a traditional dish in Norway but maybe it was a bit too different for this American palate. I would not order it again. Service was friendly but not exactly fast. Overall, it's a nice restaurant and I would return but would get something more familiar such as a pasta or pizza.

Service is slow. Food is OK. Ambiance is OK. I will not go back. I'm being prompted by Yelp for more. But that's all I have. I guess I'll just add more filler.... read more Service is slow.

Great pizzas, especially the Bianco pizzas. Service can be a bit slow, and it is crowded at lunch time, expect a wait. read more Great pizzas, especially the Bianco pizzas. Service can be a bit slow, and it is crowded at lunch time, expect a wait.

Stumbled upon this place one early evening when it was way too cold to do anything else other than just go out for dinner. Most importantly, the apple cake! DAMN. DAMN. DAMN. This apple cake is truly magic. No other sweet treat that we tried during our 3 weeks of travel could compare and I'm so sad that I live so far away. Bjørk, if you're reading this, you need to come open a restaurant in California so I can munch on your apple cakes forever! The beer selection was great, the thin crust prosciutto pizza was insanely good and the pasta bolognese was wonderful too. But seriously. The apple cake.

Nice and tasty pizza and a local beer! Very nice pizza with a lot of topping! The beer was also very tasty, Mjelle from Bådin brewery! read more Nice and tasty pizza and a local beer! Very nice pizza with a lot of topping! The beer was also very tasty, Mjelle from Bådin brewery!
