    The best seafood restaurant I have ever visited in Sweden. The food is very fresh. We had the medium seafood mix plate. And everyone was very satisfied with the food.

    Everyone was served in lower dining room instead of upper one with harbour views. Overly salty lobster soup with 15 ml. Lobster, max. Very good turbot. But our entire experience was ruined when at payment time, one US$ credit card, 3 CAN$ credit cards and one debit card, from two different banks and owned by two different people (my husband and I) were all refused. So far during our 2 weeks in Sweden, businesses have always and only accepted credit cards- with no problem- and here we were asked to pay cash. Who carries that much kronor in this virtually cash free society? Very bad experience.

    We have had the pleasure of dining here twice. Amazing service and delicious food for both a vegetarian and meat eater. The place was very tidy and clean. The wait staff were knowledgeable and patient with our many questions. Great selection of wine. Highly suggest dining here if you are in Gothenburg.

    I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food here, although a bit expensive for dinning here often. The service was nice and i really liked where this place is located. The view of Gothenburgs harbor give you a feeling of relaxation. Wonderful place. O do recommend this restaurant. But be ready to pay for it ⚓⚓

    Had the most delicious seafood tower and even the non alcoholic sparkling wine was exquisite! Great service and beautiful interior.

    Good food, but poor service and prices matching their heritage, not their current level. There are other restaurants in Gothenburg I'd much rather spend 1 000 SEK per person for a three course meal.

    (Translated by Google) Wonderful Christmas table. The boss was there and contributed stories and asked several times how everything went. (Original) Underbart julbord. Chefen var där och bidrog med historier och frågade flera gånger hur allt stod till.

    Beautiful spot with decent food. Only go if you have all the time in the world because it takes forever to be served. Several of the mussels on the seafood platter were closed and some crab tasted off. Everything else was very good.

    Awesome food. I am not sure one can make fish and sea foods any better. Great owner, awesome staff... the only point for improvement is their skills in paring wine and food. I had to discuss with them couple of times about it. I go there often and will go there every time I am I. GÖTEBORG.

    Great seaside pub with live music. Excellent service with a pleasant approach to guests. Good beer and food. All at reasonable prices.

  • 5/5 Gabriel O. 2 years ago on Google • 329 reviews
    Great experience! The food was really good, the place is beautiful and service was good. We went with our 4month old baby and it was totally ok. The beer menu could be a bit better and bigger, specially in a city like Gothenburg with so many good breweries!

  • 3/5 Ray M. 6 years ago on Google • 257 reviews
    Had a good lunch on a sunny day here. The fresh halibut with side salad was tasty and the attentive, friendly staff was a welcomed treat! This place looks like an old house on a pier and the views are amazing. Food is decent, but not spectacular like the views.

  • 5/5 Gionatan T. 5 years ago on Google • 228 reviews
    Terrific atmosfere right in front the river. The terrace let you in a sailing boat with the sea front and the perfectly chosen furniture and ambientaton. Very high level of the quality of the fish, very fresh and very selected. I appreciated very much the original taste of the proposed combinations in all the dishes. Since I'm Italian I found a quite high use of the butter in place of the oil but this would just a cultural difference. Suggested in any way if you are looking a place of Swedish flavor with no budget limitation since the bill is not adequate for all pockets. Very good and professional service being a good level restaurant.

    Recommended restaurant with guarantee, there are many interesting menu serving like chef table, we wouldn’t try chef table menu only try Seafood set (medium). Must Try The toast as an appetizer..

  • 4/5 Henrik G. 5 months ago on Google • 101 reviews
    This is a very classic venue for seafood in Gothenburg. Across several generations of chefs and owners the past 30 years, I’d say the current setup (2023/24) is in the upper third. My most recent visit was for a Christmas table, ranking a strong four stars across both fish and meat dishes.

    Wow, what a dinner. A 3-course meal to remember!

  • 5/5 Vincent C. 3 years ago on Google • 16 reviews
    We went for the Wagners Lux menu with my wife. I can only say it was excellent. Not only the food but also the service. Chanterelle toast Scallops Lemon sole filet Creme brulee All of it was just full of flavour and perfectly cooked A delight The only down point I could find was the crème brûlée slightly under cooked so a bit too liquid to my taste. I can definitely recommend the place and I hope to return soon

    (Translated by Google) Could not attend the men's dinner due to surgery called and wanted some take away Instead. Quickly and perfectly, they arrange a candy bag with delicious scallops, red sole and a yogurt panna cotta on top. Thanks so much. (Original) Kunde inte deltaga på herrmiddagen pga operation ringde och ville ha lite take away Istället. Snabbt och perfekt ordna de en godispåse med ljuvlig pilgrimsmussla, rödtunga och en yoghurt pannacotta på toppen. Tack så mycket.

    (Translated by Google) One of Gothenburg's and the West Coast's best and foremost seafood restaurants. Everything is top class, from starter to staff. You go here to pamper yourself and your company. High price level but you are guaranteed to be satisfied. A visit here lasts a long, long time afterwards. (Original) En av Göteborgs och Västkustens bästa och främsta fisk- och skaldjursrestauranger. Allt är toppklass, från förrätt till personal. Hit går man för att skämma bort sig och sitt sällskap. Hög prisnivå men man blir garanterad nöjd. Ett besök här lever man på länge länge efteråt.

    (Translated by Google) Glad to be greeted on the phone that we have Corona in Sweden. Because you did not know. Other restaurants in Gothenburg have a person who answers the phone. (Original) Kul att bli bemött i tfn att vi har Corona i Sverige. För det visste man inte. Övriga krogar i Göteborg har en människa som svarar i tfn.

  • 5/5 Pavinee J. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely food, beautiful restaurant. I loved my octopus dish.

  • 4/5 Helen A. 2 years ago on Google
    Good seafood but very expensive. Perhaps we chose badly but there were a lot of very rich dishes (e.g. The cream sauce with the Turbot) and the portion of the lobster soup, although absolutely delicious, was far too large and therefore overwhelmingly rich.

  • 5/5 John W. 2 years ago on Google
    Probably the best Julbord that I've experienced in Sweden, beautifully decorated, very friendly and professional staff, pricey but worth it!

  • 3/5 Robert D. 2 years ago on Google
    3 stars food and overly casual staff. An historical seafood restaurant and in the past one Gothenburg's best. Lovely setting any time of the year and in the past I was a frequent customer. Even then the service was starting to lack that professional touch as many quality Swedish restaurants adopt the casual blue jeans vibe with some staff that aren't alert and knowledgeable. Our group had lamb, which was actually really good but one comes for the seafood, fish and that was mediocre, poorly prepared. The Price tag is expected but then everything else has to follow or the stars start to fall away. The staff though the were good are dressed like the local pizzeria just doesn't keep the stars.

  • 4/5 Lili R. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing outdoor dining area, the indoors area were cozy but more in style with an old cottage than a seaside seafood restaurant. Lots to chose from the menu and everything seemed delicious. The white asparagus were perfect and the pasta were really tasty but a bit on the smaller side. The seafood plateau were amazing and a lot of food while the turbout were really nice but didn't go perfect with the mushrooms. Wonderful service with genuine and knowledgeable personel.

  • 5/5 Pei A. 1 year ago on Google
    It’s so nice but the soup is too oily

  • 3/5 Ignacio Esteban S. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere and nice food. But too few waiters, which makes you wait long time to order food, get the bill etc… not what you would expect from a restaurant that aims to be on the high end

  • 5/5 arizal h. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious swedish culinary

  • 5/5 Viktor R. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best restaurants in Gothenburg, especially when it comes to seafood. The service is exceptional, food is great and the atmosphere is phenomenal. A big bonus is if you manage to time your visit around Christmas since the christmasspread is amazing.

  • 4/5 simon f. 1 year ago on Google
    Pricey but worth it. Superb setting, Lobster soup was to die for, and even though it the fish was excellent, so too was the beef. Excellent service and extensive wine list. Will return.

  • 5/5 Ayse A. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect ambiance food and wines👍🏼🥂

  • 3/5 Morten Fjord C. 1 year ago on Google
    The fish is above average. The rest of the foos is probably below average. It is not worth the high cost. Atmosphere is very good.

  • 5/5 M. K. 1 year ago on Google
    It was the tastiest potatoes soufflé I ever have 👨‍🍳 Nice, welcome service.

  • 2/5 Bastien Q. 1 year ago on Google
    Very disappointing visit. Reputed for being one of the best seafood restaurants in Gothenburg but clearly something has changed in the past couple years. Produce quality was excellent, but execution was lacking. All dishes too salty, too heavy and all originality lost. Traditional dishes done with no subtlety. The price is not in line with the execution. Service was ok, not good, not bad. Just ok. Overall, much nicer options and much better value options available even a stone's throw away. A shame to see such a decline for such a historically good restaurant.

    (Translated by Google) Had probably too high expectations. Everything tastes good but nothing surprising or special. Do not think it was affordable. (Original) Hade nog för stora förväntningar. Allt smaka bra men inte något överraskande eller speciellt. Tycker inte att det var prisvärt.

    (Translated by Google) Sitting Christmas table, it was good, good mix, a little too much food but they lacked those extra think we had too high expectations. It got a little stressful as everyone needed to be ready by 22.00 😔 (Original) Sittande julbord, det var gott, bra blandning, lite förmycket mat men saknade de de där extra tror vi hade för höga förväntningar. Det blev lite stressigt då alla behövde vara färdiga till 22.00 😔

    Sjömagasinen var mycket bra. Bra och kunnig personal och mycket god mat. Verkar som personalen skall med till den nya ägaren.

  • 5/5 Daniel K. 5 years ago on Google
    Wonderful! Sjömagasinet is a restaurant wellknown for it´s seafood. They have a long history of beeing the no1 choice for many people, and there is a reason why! We booked a table for six people at lunchtime. Upon arrival we were given the choice of being seated outside or inside. We chose outside and were seated with a wonderful view of the canal. We had preebooked the three course lunch for sixa people. First course was the Summerbuffé and it was huge. So a small tip, settle for the summerbuffé, there is really no need to book anything else. The food was wonderfully prepared, welltasting and service was excellent. I´ve been here for a couple of times, both for lunch, dinner and of course "Julbord", and they always deliver! Concistanly high qulity food and service. Will definitly visit again!

    (Translated by Google) Superb staff and wonderful menu. Very good with table-served Christmas table. The menu and drinks were very well composed. The staff worked Corona safe and were responsive. New taste sensations on the herring table and the sea magazine's own nub was very nice and tasty. The dessert tray was sickeningly good. Thank you for a nice evening! (Original) Suverän personal och underbar meny. Väldigt bra med bordserverat julbord. Menyn och dryckerna var väldigt bra komponerat. Personalen arbetade Coronasäkert och var lyhörda.
