Generous portions |
Österlånggatan 14 Stockholm 111 31 Sweden +46 (0)8 20 5776 http://www.paristexas.se/ |
This is a romantic restaurant where you are served well-made food in candlelight. Formerly known as Bakfickan, this place has also shifted from France to Texas, in terms of both music and food. The spacious and pleasant surroundings are appropriate to the grilled meat and fish in different salsas that you'll find on the menu. The dishes are generous and well-made. On Saturdays you can have an American brunch with eggs Benedict, huevos rancheros and a Bloody Mary, while the sounds of Hank Williams, Flaco Jimenez and Big Mama Thornton waft from the loudspeakers.

Skeppsbrokajen Tullhus 2 Stockholm 11130 Sweden +46 (0)8 5348 9726 / +46 (0)8 22 5755 http://www.brannvin-stockholm.se/ |
Brännvin is a Swedish liquor, also known as aquavit, and this restaurant by the same name, offers some 40 varieties of it. However, it is not just the drink that draws the crowds; the food is equally tempting with lovely Swedish appetizers, main courses and desserts. Brännvin also offers seasonal menus plus the "County Menu", which helps you select your food according to your preference. And if all this does not attract you, the waterfront view of the Strömmen Canal will change your mind for sure. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The ultimate Italian experience |
Blekingegatan 32 Stockholm 118 56 Sweden +46 (0)8 644 1816 http://ww.hosteriatresanti.lun... |
Like in the movies, Italian food is portrayed as being full of cheese, garlic, tomatoes and is always totally delicious. This rustic Italian joint is an experience by itself. The staff is friendly, and Italian. Don't be surprised if your waiter breaks into an aria whilst serving you. This place comes closest to the authentic Italian dining, outside of Italy. Ensure that you have a reservation at least a week in advance. Review © 2007, Wcities |

With many of the specialities featuring outstanding Swedish cuisine, Leijontornet's menu is also inspiried by influences from Asia, North America, and other parts of Europe. The food is chosen with care and the presentation is impeccable explaining the high prices. Drop in for a glass of wine and some delicious vegetarian dishes, should meat not suit your fancy. Although, the local favorite Swedish Duck Liver is highly recommended. You will also find hints of seafood with a unique Scandinavian twist. Situated in the heart of Stockholm, this makes an excellent choice for those looking for an exquisite meal. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Traditional Italian in Sweden |
Norrmalmstorg 4 Stockholm 111 46 Sweden +46 (0)8 440 3880 |
From legendary Stockholm restaurant and club owner Sergio Montanari comes Martini, a bar and restaurant located a stone's throw from any city dweller in need of a drink or a full belly. The restuarant has very good traditional pasta, the best of which being the 'frutti de mare'. The environment is very pleasant, facing Norrmalmstorg--great for people watching.

Authentic Thai food |
Odengatan 94 Stockholm 113 22 Sweden +46 (0)8 30 7070 http://narknoi.se/ |
Discreet wooden doors welcome you to the exotic world of Thailand. The decor is sober and the ambience, pleasant. The food is, quite frankly, exquisite, and is very reasonably priced. Try a tasty satay, spring rolls accompanied by a spicy sauce, or one of the classic Thai soups. The curries are a bit strong so be careful while ordering and if the spice is a bit too much to handle, a cold beer can set you right. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Stylish restaurant in a central location |
Grevturegatan 30 Stockholm 11438 Sweden +46 (0)8 5458 2400 http://www.nox.se/ |
This bi-level establishment has a pretty decor and makes effective use of crystal chandeliers and laminated glass on the walls. The food is Swedish-French and the clientele includes international tourists. The wait staff is knowledgeable, efficient and helpful—you will require their help to make your choices. The in-house bar offers a wide variety of wines, cocktails and champagne. The restaurant accommodates up to 65 persons and can get crowded easily. The garden space is fascinating, with people lazing around in tents and on big armchairs. On Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, the DJs play an eclectic mix of music. It is tough to describe why you should come here for a night of fun, so just hop in and find out yourself! Review © 2007, Wcities |

One of the restaurants in Stockholm privileged with a star in the Guide Michelin, Operakällaren is also a classic among gourmet restaurants.

Located in an old customs house facing the waterfront, this pub has a view of the archipelago and the ferries scurrying among the islands. The decoration in this brewery, one of the oldest in Sweden, includes lots of wood and prints of sailing ships. The coppers of the brewery itself form the centrepiece of the room surrounded by a huge island bar. For beer, meals and snacks with a great view, this is not to be missed. Review © 2007, Wcities |

For a Culinary Treat |
Strandvägen 9 Stockholm 11456 Sweden +46 (0)8 663 8183 http://www.paulochnorbert.se/ |
Experience true gourmet cuisine at this charming little restaurant in the city. The 32-seat eatery is especially suitable for small celebration meals. German Chef Norbert Lang conjures up exciting preparations by adding a French twist to fresh Swedish ingredients. Recommendations include the scrumptious Lobster Bisque, which comes along with a mélange of other, daintily-dressed seafood and crunchy veggies on a big platter. Those who cannot do without their dose of meat can sample some rare presentations of reindeer and moose, or game birds. A big mug of Joseph Drouhin Chablis '93 should wash things down nicely. Desserts are worth digging into— the chocolate cake and lemon mousse are most popular— but the restaurant's healthy fruit sorbets are preferred by regulars. Watch that wallet though; it has an uncanny way of getting depleted here! Review © 2007, Wcities |

Melker Andersson is the super-chef behind this innovative bar and restaurant. The menu is unique, and sure to satisfy a variety of tastes.

The restaurant is situated on one of the most populated residential islands in the country. Sitting at a table within this charming, historic building, patrons are treated to some awesome views of the waterfront. Its delicious concoctions of contemporary Swiss food have earned it a star in the Guide Michelin, in addition to glowing recommendations from regular diners and first-timers alike. Dig into fresh, leafy salads, slurp your way through hot soups and savor the delicious fish, chicken, lamb and pork entrees, before moving on to a calorie-laden dessert. Ice-creams, chunky pieces of chocolate, sodas, lager and sorbets are on offer too, and the seasonal list gets pepped up in summer, with a special tasting menu coming to the fore. Don't forget to grab a few lumps of cheese on your way out. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The 1950s décor of this restaurant creates a unique atmosphere and is one of the key elements that draw people to this venue. Delicious Swedish and international fare is served in this warm setting. If you are a tourist, try one of the traditional dishes, like the popular isterband served with potatoes in a cream sauce. And while waiting for your meal to arrive, step up to the bar to treat your taste buds to the local Lundbergs lager beer. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Popular neigbhorhood spot |
Skånegatan 51 Stockholm 116 37 Sweden +46 (0)8 644 1981 |
A neighborhood tavern that enjoys a higher degree of popularity than its competitors; this might just be the hippest bar in Sundsvall. The service at this pub is ambitious and attentive. Their specialty drink is the Raspberry Mojito, and although their cocktail list is short, all of the cocktails are made with finesse. When you visit the WC Bar & Diner, don't be intimidated by the two burly bouncers at the door to this tiny bar, because when you are in Stockholm this is definitely the place you will want to bounce in to.

Lots of fresh fish and shellfish, served with delicious sauces and vegetables, is the winning concept here. At Wedholms, not much attention is given to experimenting ...and you'll be grateful for that. Instead, the focus is on preparing them with prime-quality ingredients and with minutest attention to detail. The décor and ambience leave nothing to be desired and the service is impeccable.

The decor of this gigantic Asian resto-bar is overwhelming to say the least—spacious and opulent, you can choose to seat yourself either indoors, or on the patio, right by the water. The sink-into-me sofas will have you relaxed in no time, and besides the delicious cuisine from the Far East, you can also enjoy a few drinks. DJs liven up the weekends with the latest numbers.
