    The service was over my expectations. I usually go to the KB bar which I would give 5/5 to. Great atmosphere. For dining, I would recommend not to expect much. We were 4 people and they all were beautifully served, the choice of the menu was great but it lacked in creativity AND following tradition. For some reason, something was missing in the flavors. It was t salt, but what made those dishes Swedish. SOS was the best. There are plenty other restaurants to eat better Swedish food with similar price or slightly higher, but KB is KB. If you are a tourist go for it, you don’t know how they should taste. And that was

    Besides absolutely no vegan options, which is unacceptable 2024. Top marks across the board, wonderful oasis in East city

    Amazing place with very friendly, attentive and helpful staff. Nice music, cozy atmosphere and pleasant people around. Interesting menu with local food options, everything that we ordered was delicious and great looking. Maybe a bit too salty, but just like most of things in Stockholm.

    A wonderful place, packed with locals. I opted for their more casual bar area as I was dining alone. The bartender Hans treated me like royalty as a first time visitor in Stockholm. They’ve just updated their menu last week so I opted for the Shrimp Toast with a Swedish Collins Cocktail (with local gin and elderflower liquor) and a Carrot cake with vanilla ice cream, pickled ginger and liquorice with a Swedish Espresso Martini (with some Punsch).. simply delicious! An amazing experience, yummy food, great ambience and a lovely service! Must visit for your first local experience in 🇸🇪

    We had lunch at this restaurant. The waitress was nice, they have several options on the menu. I had the schnitzel, which was good, although the peas and the fries were a bit too much salty. Overall, it was a pretty fine lunch.

    My absolute favorite spot for fantastic Swedish food. The place never fails every time I go for a visit with the food, the service, the atmosphere...everything about it is just amazing. Food portions are generous by Swedish standards, quality of food is top notch and the service is professional and welcoming. The cherry on top is having a martini assembled at the table with knowledgeable bartenders. This place is always a recommendation to out-of-town visitors.

    Great place and atmosphere, features traditional ingredients for dishes with a twist. Welcoming service - for humans and pups. My doggo was greeted with a fresh bowl of water and we were seated comfortably away from the main dining hall. Highly recommended!

    KB is a really classy and cosy place. The ambience feels luxury and historic, with the walls full of art. The food as well as the service keeps a high standard, and I’m always leaving feeling happy after dining at KB. Here you’ll find a mix of traditional Swedish food and some seasonal and modern new dishes. Really recommend this place for a great culinary experience.

    Delicious traditional Swedish dishes with a little modern twist. The service is amazing and dining room has a classic look. Very important to reserve ahead of time, specially on weekends. The cost of our meal including wine was about 180 Kr

  • 5/5 Laura D. 1 year ago on Google
    Well cooked and presented traditional Swedish food. Popular place, almost fully booked even for an early 18:00 hrs dinner. Attentive and knowledgeable waiter, knew his stuff and the wines he had in house. The portions are really hearthy and tasty. After a starter and a main course, you ll need to struggle to get down a desert as well. Will def go back and taste some more dishes from their menu! Good quality vs price.

    Although the atmosphere is a little stuffy the food is amazing and delicious. They serve plenty of traditional Nordic dishes. I would go back.

  • 5/5 Johan E. 1 year ago on Google
    Really rare in Stockholm to get such professional service. Great classic Swedish food too.

  • 5/5 Patrick J. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent food in a traditional cosy setting.

  • 5/5 Claus W. 1 year ago on Google
    I had the pleasure of visiting this restaurant with a colleague, who told me that this is a popular spot in Stockholm and after having eaten there, I can see why. So first off, I am not one for fancy food, but I appreciate "basic foods" done extremely well. Now I cannot be sure whether anything on the menu counts as basic, but it seemed to have most of the Swedish favorites. I ended up with the "vegetarian" meal by accident, some wonderful stuffed dumplings and I can tell you, I enjoyed it so much that I left perfectly happy. I even skipped dessert, mostly as I was blown away by the quality and taste of food already. It feels a tad pricy, but the entire staff were amazing, the food was outstanding, and so it was a perfect treat and worth the money!

    I truly think this was the best sausage I've eaten in my entire life. The place is upscale, but the prices were surprisingly average (195kr for the pork sausage at lunch). I highly recommend this place!

    Best Service and Best food!!! The picture doesn’t even do the justice!

  • 5/5 Mårten H. 1 year ago on Google
    I often go to KB for lunches both private and work lunches - you never leave disappointed. The tradition is in the walls and the service is one of the best you will experience in Stockholm, as is the extensive home cooking and the ala carte menu, with always delicious and selected ingredients for the dishes.

    If you want to experience the best Swedish cuisine in a classical atmosphere this is where you go!

  • 5/5 bankoofer 1 year ago on Google
    The first thing you'll notice at Konstnärsbaren is the excellent service you're provided. Staff is both accommodating and knowledgable, and ensure your party taps into pure enjoyment during your visit. Dishes are delicious, oftentimes filling, and beautifully presented in an elegantly simple manner. You may find cheaper fare in Stockholm, but you would be hard-pressed to find another place more comfortable with an equal quality of food. I suspect, and hope, that Konstnärsbaren will remain a mainstay on Stockholm's dining scene. Bonus: the art gallery is an interesting and fun addition to any visit, with different artworks and artists rotating in and out over time at a decent pace.

    Modern and classic dishes with a twist in a cozy atmosphere. Service is friendly, attentive and competent. Perfect lunch spot! Making a reservation is advised.

  • 4/5 Evgeny S. 5 years ago on Google
    This is a very delicious place with a nice, quite interior. The food arrived very fast and was delicious. Everything is pricey like everything else in Sweden. I recommend this place, nice authentic swedish food.

  • 4/5 Mats N. 2 years ago on Google
    Great atmosphere, nice staff and beautiful interior. Really good food and you can bring your dog. More classic typ of food, swedish/french.

  • 4/5 anders w. 4 months ago on Google • 1 review
    As always, the food is excellent and the atmosphere very attractive. But the price charged for drinks is beyond understanding. You charge 69 sek for a bottle of alcohol-free beer. The price in the supermarket is 15 sek. Your price is almost 500% higher. That feels like robbery!
