The Sichuan dishes are on the mild side but the tastes impress and the servings, although at small to medium sizes are very filling in totality. DISHES & TASTES The dishes are rich, has a kick of soya, salt, fermented bean paste and chillies. The meat, vegetables and ingredients were fresh. Dishes are on the oily side but appetising and keeps you going back for more. It was a very good complete meal when accompanied by steamed white rice. Dishes from most to least liked: 1. Bang Bang Ji Si 2. Twice Cooked Pork 3. Stir Fried Greens 4. Biang Biang Noodles 5. Five Spice Ribs 6. Ginger Fragrant Tofu 7. Papa Cao's Dumplings (veg) SHARED DISHES A visit here is best as a group since the dishes are for sharing. As a group of 3, we ordered 7 different dishes, allowing us to try a third of the menu. AMBIANCE The dark oriental theme decor is tasteful and styled like a club. The size of the restaurant looks deceptively small but consists of two large but well compartmentalized rooms and a bar area. COCKTAILS The cocktails here deserves praise. They are original, balanced and rewarding in taste.

One of Stockholms best asian fusion restorant that also has a great vegan menu. I keep coming back both for the food and drinks. The music can be quite loud so if you have a harder time hearing it can be good to ask to be seated close to the windows where it's a little calmer.

The concept of ordering dishes and sharing them with friends made us enjoy our dinner. Portions: each dish are smaller compared to what I've been familiar to Chinese food portion sizes that are usually a bit bigger and perfect for a huge number of family dinners without holding back on how much you could take. This was smaller and felt more of fine dining, but we still got to taste everything and feel satisfied. Flavors: I couldn't point my finger to it as I'm not a chef but I'm familiar to Chinese food. Could be the umami was missing. I tasted that they had to adjust the flavours a bit to what the majority would like. In the end, we enjoyed the night with good food and service. Desserts: A bit disappointed because they didn't have either of the sweet tofu pudding or the other glutenous desserts. I was looking forward to this as Chinese desserts are delicious. We hope they could make the traditional desserts.

We are impressed how well the restaurant combines the Chinese food with Nordic culture. China has lots of good food, but sometimes it is not easy to let people accept it and love it. I think Surfers is doing kind of innovation - helping people to know more about Chinese food and culture. As Chinese, we are happy to see there is a restaurant like Surfers in Stockholm. About the food and drinks, cocktails are really good - we will finitely come back for it. The dish "shoot that fish" is authentic and the fish is fresh! We love it. Staff is very friendly and very patient. 😊😊🤗🤗 If you have never tried Chinese food before, I would recommend Surfers!

I would say Surfers Stockholm is the best of best Chinese restaurant in Stockholm. All dishes give a real taste of Chinese cuisine; for instance, they cook the hot menu in real spicy. Otherwise, it is not a traditional one, but they made a perfect balance between Western and Asia food and culture. Pre-booking should be required.

Super classy well decorated interior. Has a cool moody vibe. Food was pretty good. Flavors all seem to align with the Sichuan cuisine I’ve had in the past, but by no means the best I’ve ever had. Prices seem quite high for the amount of food the serve per dish. Also the individual dishes they provide for you to use are laughably small for a place that is intended to be family style (sharing dishes).

Interior and service was great. Food was typical mediocre Stockholm quality. Still waiting for the day someone opens a more authentic Chinese restaurant that isn't toned down to support the weak Swedish tongue.

Good food but the dynamic pricing is extremely weird and way too opaque. They basically scale up dishes based on how many you are, which alters the price stated in the menu. The food is good, but when we ordered a bao-dish we were not told or given an option when they were out of bao and replaced it with salad. Some of the staff is almost rude and I saw several of them walking around, taking phone calls mid-service. They actuslly seem more focused on talking to eachother than the customers.

A hybrid atmosphere where it looks like Asian culture but in the end a bit of a pasted-on feeling of a Chinese restaurant, but the staff do everything they can to convey an oriental experience and are really well read about the food, and its origins and stories around all the Chinese drinks they offer. Now for the food, which is really good and clearly above the delivery of the neighborhood Chinese restaurant. I think the food may not follow the Chinese culture that I experienced in the years I was in China, but the overall experience is so good that you can forgive this Chinese look a like. The price picture is medium plus, but with its location in the middle of central Stockholm, it is completely normal or even below normal. Good selection of drinks. I recommend a visit!

Very cozy bar/restaurant with a decor that reminds you of a speakeasy with an Asian touch. Very friendly staff and delicious food. Best to make a reservation. We stopped by early in the evening and were asked to return by 7. We had to wait a bit at the bar but not for long before our table was freed

Good service and great cocktails. However portion sizes were small and dishes were way too salty. Also not really authentically Sichuanese food. Won’t return unfortunately.

Outstanding Cantonese cuisine!! One of the best in Stockholm. Biang biang noodles were just yum 🤤, still thinking about it. Good cocktails. I love the interiors. Nicely done. Should not be missed.

Amazing food, Thanks Nilas and Ludvig for a great evening.

Easily a 5/5 experience. Price tag is mid range but the food is excellent. Asian Tapas - what a brilliant idea. And the service was amazing. I can't recall the name of the young man that served us but he was second to none in that restaurant. I have been 3 times and will continue to return. Beautiful food.

Food was far too salty for everyone (10 people) and we didn't end up eating it. When we complained to the waiter nothing was done. Service was rude and told us we are unpleasant for complaining about the food. High expectations, let down massively.

(Translated by Google) Best food I've eaten in a long time even dishes I didn't like before tasted wonderful! (Original) Bästa mat jag ätit på länge även rätter jag inte gillat förut smakade underbart!

My favorite restaurant in Stockholm. Food is spicy, full of flavors n so scrumptious. You give ur taste buds an amazing treat if u come here. Be prepared to eat spicy though 🌶. I had eaten first time in Visby and loved it so much that I googled for in Stockholm and was so happy to have found this. N since then I have been visiting the place every now and then

Food and flavours where ok, with many dishes being actually Chinese(!). The quality was very lacking however regarding the price. If you are looking for a more genuine Chinese Sichuan experience. There are better and cheaper places. And for those who already know and love Chinese food the menu is very confusing. Drinks and staff was nice, a bit Clueless about the food. Overall experience was sadly a let down.

Pretty delicious food! It was really amazing. Normally, Asian foods are not my favorite but it was literally Great. You should definitely try it!

Nice place and tasty food but something I am missing there. I have been there twice and have the same feeling. I would say between 3/4 starts.

(Translated by Google) great place and exciting food that was really good. There can be a lot of people so book a table well in advance. (Original) jättemysigt ställe och spännande mat som var verkligen god. Det kan vara mycket folk så boka bord i god tid.

Probably my favorite restaurant in Stockholm. Dishes are inventive and really tasty. We loved the baozi, Dan Dan noodles, and mao dou. Our waiter was incredible - he made great menu suggestions and gave us free appetizers as we chatted with him. We also really enjoyed the lingonberry and jasmine sour drinks that we had. The vibes are pretty great, a little fun a little fine dining. The bathrooms downstairs are a must go to… they’re super cool, trust me. I definitely recommend this for a nicer dinner option!

Suprisingly good sichuan food in Stockholm. Not really an authentic chinese restaurant, but the food was delicious! I will come back, for sure.

We have been here many times and usually come back for their Chinese New Year menu because they serve dishes that are specially cooked for that one to two days.

Awesome food in a totally awesome space. Food was 10/10 awesome: everything we ordered. Restaurant is gorgeous.

The food was beyond amazing. And the service from the bartender “Magnus”… wow… wow… here we talk about someone that loves his job. 10/10

The food was amazing and above our expectations! The service we had from the bar tender was excellent and he suggestions lots of dishes that were perfect! Cocktails were incredible too so definitely recommend

Sister restaurant to Surfers in Visby, Gotland, this Stockholm branch offers the same great Asian favorites along with some dishes not available in Visby. Order several dishes and share. Each one packs delicious flavors. The service is attentive and friendly. The vibe is different than Visby, not quite as chilled. Definitely make reservations as this place is full every night. Favorites are dumplings, noodles in peanut sauce, shrimp balls, rubs and chicken in peanut sauce.

The food was great! I thought the Taiwanese pork belly was quite authentic and a lot of the dishes felt very unique. Not only was the food great, the staff were amazing. They were very knowledgeable in Chinese food and they were very intentional. It was good vibes all around and also entertaining with the Chinese drinking songs. I even forgot my sunglasses and they made sure to get them back to me.

Exquisite 🥹 Quite expensive but so worth it if you're looking for authentic Chinese food. The ambience makes you feel like you're in a Wong Kar-Wai movie. *chef's kiss* (the floor under our table was super sticky but nothing is perfect lol)

(Translated by Google) Made my first visit in November on the recommendation of a colleague. Can't help but recommend! The restaurant serves small dishes and 3-4 dishes per person I think and my company was just right. Easy to share and fantastic taste in all the dishes. Loved the shrimp ball with dipping as well as the hot chicken. Have a drink while you are here, enjoyed a lot of "Yóujú Gòng" and "Hainan Hóng" that I had in the glass. The only thing to note was that sometimes you have to wait unusually long for the food but it is clearly worth waiting for. And if you want to avoid hanging on the lock when opening for a drop in place, book a table at least a month in advance. (Original) Gjorde mitt första besök i November efter rekommendation av en kollega. Kan inte annat än att rekommendera vidare! Restaurangen serverar små rätter och 3-4st rätter per person tycker jag och mitt sällskap var lagom. Lätt att dela på och fantastiskt mycket smak i alla rätterna. Tyckte mycket om räkbollen med dipp samt den heta kycklingen. Ta gärna en drink när ni är här, tyckte mycket om ”Yóujú Gòng” och ”Hainan Hóng” som jag hade i glaset. Enda att anmärka på var att ibland får man vänta ovanligt länge på maten men det är helt klart värt att vänta på. Och om man vill slippa hänga på låset vid öppning för en drop in plats så boka bord minst en månad i förväg.

We were running late due to a flight delay, so I emailed them (automatic message on the phone) and they responded saying it was not a problem. They didn't have a set menu for 2 ppl, but our server chose dishes for us as if a set menu. The food was amazing! We had cucumbers, and veggies (in garlic and chili), shrimp and chicken balls, etc etc, see pics. Drinks were good. Cool music. Definitely coming back!

Not what it used to be. Tasting experience below expectations. The room in the back with tables has sofas way too low to have a confortable food experience and eat properly. It kinda destroyed the all thing from the start and tables next to us complained about the same thing. Cannot understand why the restaurant is not doing anything about it.

We were a group of six friends and a baby and we had such a cozy and nice experience. The restaurant is a bit pricey but the staff didn’t stress us to eat more or drink more constantly (which can’t be said about most restaurants) so we could actually think about what we needed calmly. We are definitely coming back as soon as possible even if it’s pricey, it’s elegant but not uncomfortable and such a nice staff! The food was amazing but of course extremely small dishes. Definitely one of the best chinese restaurants I’ve been to but there are other super good restaurants in Stockholm with bigger portions and that aren’t this pricey. Surfers is great if you are vegan though, also a lot of gluten free options.

Nice atmosphere, yummy and full of flavor food 🤩 we ordered 3 dishes with meat and 2 with veggies. Perfect for 2 people.

I’ve traveled China for work and always loved the food there. Not being able to go during Covid - this was reviving my tastebuds. I liked the food a lot. The Tsingtao is overpriced beyond belief here, but it’s Stockholm and not Shanghai after all.

Food is always great and really in its own category in Stockholm. The old location had better ambiance in my opinion but it's easier to get a table now so, upsides and downsides 😊

Food is shockingly greasy and service is poor. Our question about the portion size got ignored by the staff, and we ended up having a table full of greasy food (ordered 3 mains for 2, thinking portions are small). Toilets are nice though!

Big shout out to Magnus, our bartender and server for the night yesterday! Very engaging in conversation including helpful explaining of the dishes we had ordered. The food and drinks were amazing.

Fantastic food, fantastic service, fantastic atmosphere. I've never eaten such amazing Asian food. We ordered 10 different meals and shared with four of us. Each dish was very tasty and also very different from eachother. The service was helpful too and explained a lot about the different kinds of dishes and their ways of preparation.

A Sichuan cuisine inspired fusion restaurant. It's the second time I've been here.First time after it moved to the new address. As a person from Sichuan province, below is what i think: Environment and ambiance: Classy interior design, spacious seating. Very Östermalm.Lively and happening. Staff: Staff are really friendly and helpful, service minded and very attentive. We spilled our wine, and a friendly staff came with help almost in a split second. They deserve 5 star! Food: I'm sorry to say the food is slightly below average. I'm fully aware that this is fusion food, or should we say, 'European style Chinese food', which is totally fine. But at least it should be tasty. I would say for the 8 dishes we ordered, nothing is rememberable. The only thing i remember is all dishes are quite salty.... Price: Price is quite high given the amount of food you are getting. I get it is tapas concept, the amount is small, but the price for some dish is equivalent to a main course in a decent restaurant which is a bit absurd. Overall, i think it is a restaurant in Östermalm which you go there for everything else than food. :-)

(Translated by Google) Very good drinks and good food. Nicely decorated in Humlegården but unfortunately among the worst service me and my friends have been with. It took a long time before we even got to order. The staff was not very nice so it really dragged down the experience which felt really boring as surfers are something I was looking forward to trying (Original) Jättegoda drinkar och god mat. Fint inrett i Humlegården men tyvärr bland den sämsta servicen jag och mina vänner varit med om. Det tog lång tid innan vi ens fick beställa. Personalen var inte särskilt trevlig så det drog verkligen ner upplevelsen vilket kändes riktigt tråkigt då surfers är något jag sett fram emot att prova

My favorite place to eat! Good food and great staff.

Very good food, a bit too long waiting queues but everything was great

I was skeptical at first but the food was awesome, as was the service and decor- cannot wait to return!

Had heard good things about Surfers before going there. We had 6-7 different dishes that we shared across 5 people. Nice thing about surfers is that they adjust the portions based on the number of people, which allows for a great experience sharing and trying different courses. The food was overall very good. Must say that the tofu was by far the best dish (and I don’t usually like tofu). Great texture (crunchy) and flavors. The other dishes was good as well, but the tofu stands out. Second best dish was the lamb.

Nice drinks, good service, nice place and good food. What more can you want? GET THE FRIED EGGPLANT! It is the best eggplant ive ever tried!

Great food, vibe and service.

Great food! Really enjoyed the tofu and salad from the classics. Service weirdly slow.

We have been regulars at Surfers since they opened. Now with their new menu with a bigger variety of Chinese dishes and bold flavors we are even bigger fans. Tasty food, great vibes and good service. Make sure to order baijiu to your feast!

Food here is great, they may be the best Chinese restaurant in town. The whole place has a nice vibe to it - the whole interior is not too loud so it is easy to have chill in this place and have a good conversation with friends. Although I take away one star because I think the cocktails aren’t worth it. They can improve.

(Translated by Google) Chao Shou dumplings and roasted chicken hearts were beyond expectation. Do you like strong food then test the chicken in red oil🔥The dessert Mantou was the first time for me, good but had not ordered again😄 The wait staff was nice. Like they kept track of the water glasses and replenished throughout the dinner, nice touch! Will be back and recommend the restaurant ✅ (Original) Chao Shou dumplings och wokade kycklinghjärtan var över förväntan. Tycker du om stark mat så testa kyckling i röd olja🔥Efterrätten Mantou var första gången för mig, god men hade inte beställt igen😄 Serveringspersonalen var trevliga. Gillar att de höll koll på vattenglasen och fyllde på under hela middagen, nice touch! Kommer tillbaka och rekommenderar restaurangen ✅

Tried a couple of drinks in the bar, ok drinks, nothing special, cool bar!

Good cocktails and nice lively atmosphere. I would recommend Surfers to have a drink and a snack but if you want proper and authentic Sichuan dishes foor good value choose another place (yes, Stockholm does have some). Service varies a lot: one day you receive proper service and another day the service is not only non-existent but more on the rude side. The dishes are served in small portions which is nice, so you can try out different flavours even with a small group. However, for the price, the dishes are ridiculously small...

What a wonderful surprise of a restaurant. The food, service and ambiance were stellar. This will be one of my new go to spots in Stockholm. Highly recommend.

(Translated by Google) Surfers is a restaurant that has become a restaurant that I often tell my friends about. If you like Asian and spicy food, manage to eat with chopsticks - then just go there. The noodles with sichuan pepper and the shrimp balls are just worth a visit. (Original) Surfers är en restaurang som har kommit att blivit en restaurang som jag ofta tipsar mina vänner om. Om du gillar asiatisk och spicy-mat, klarar av att äta med pinnar - så gå dit nyss. Nudlarna med sichuanpeppar och räkbollarna är bara det värt ett besök.

Cozy place with good cocktails.

(Translated by Google) Totally okay food, several were shared on different dishes. Nice local and very good staff though! (Original) Helt okej mat, var flera som delade på olika rätter. Trevlig lokal och mycket bra personal dock!
