Restaurant

😠 Little food, little reminiscent of South America, wine from Austria and Greece, incorrect information about wine (checked with Vivino). Extremely poor acoustics. Guests who came to the restaurant drunk were served and thus the noise level increased a lot. This was Saturday 21.08.21. Is not recommend...

    (Translated by Google) We stopped by for a lunch before the official opening. The premises are very inviting and beautiful with the use of a lot of oak wood. The food we got tasted just absolutely delicious and was beautifully presented on the plate and by the smiling waitresses. It has come a long way that this restaurant has set itself the goal of becoming one of Bergen's great gourmet restaurants. Good luck! We will be happy to come back 😋🍷 (Original) Vi var innom for en lunch før den offisielle åpningen. Lokalene er veldig innbydende og flotte med bruk av mye trevirke av eik. Maten vi fikk smakte bare helt nydelig og var flott presentert på tallerken og av de smilende serveringsdamene. Det lyser lang vei at denne restauranten har tatt mål av seg til å bli en av Bergens store gourmet restauranter. Lykke til! Vi kommer gjerne tilbake 😋🍷

    The restaurant was not busy when i came in, only two people aside from me but it took them 40 minutes to prepare my Ceviche dish. The food was alright not good or bad just regular plain Ceviche. I will not recommend this restaurant.

    This restaurant is AMAZING!! Very tiny place, which creates a very homey feel. But the food is extraordinary. Even for vegetarians! I had the quinotto main dish and it was excellent, one of the best risotto dishes I've ever tasted. Seriously. Do not miss out on this wonderful little restaurant, just make sure to make a reservation first.

    We liked a lot. Although they had almost closed the kitchen, they allowed us to sit and have dinner. Tasting menu to choose between 4 and 6 dishes. All very rich and surprising. You have to try the local beers, they are a luxury. The staff has been very nice, always smiling. We loved dining there, we would surely return.

    Had the classic set menu. Food was delicious, really glad I chose this restaurant 🍾

  • 5/5 SofĂ­a E. 5 years ago on Google • 73 reviews
    Excellent little restaurant. They have a number of suggested three-course menus (plus wine pairings), but they also let you swap things out or just get one or two courses. Everything was really flavorful and beautifully presented. Didn't know we'd find amazing Peruvian food in Bergen, but there you go!

  • 3/5 Oleksandr V. 5 years ago on Google • 57 reviews
    Starter was way too spicey. I asked not to add chili to the main. Got okay, but then was brought with "it's just bits of chili inside - you can easily take it out" Style of the servings is very nice though.

  • 5/5 Thomas Lillebror F. 2 years ago on Google • 52 reviews
    The monk is top in every way. Here you will encounter brilliant service, from an incredibly gentle and friendly waiter. She makes the whole and the evening top! The food is tasty and well balanced! The prices as well! Recommended!

    We had an absolutely fabulous meal here, the Peruvian Norwegian fusion was a really unique taste. Best ceviche I’ve ever had, it was more like sashimi than salsa. Don’t miss this cozy place in Bergen.

  • 5/5 Morten R. 5 years ago on Google • 34 reviews
    Cosy small restaurant slightly outside the beaten track. A couple of suggestions for 3-course menus with wine pairing. They also have a today's offering. Service and food were excellent. This is maybe one of the best value-for-money restaurant in Bergen today if you want a good meal. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Andreas L. 3 years ago on Google • 28 reviews
    A must go if you find yourself in Bergen. Modern, bright setting, very friendly service. Food is original, creative and exquisite in taste. A few interesting taste combinations you won’t usually get. Excellent wine pairing. Fair price for what they are offering!

    Worst food I've ever eaten in my life, 4 kinds of food, even a bird can't get enough full, - 800kr, and it tastes awful. For 4 persons we paid 3500 kr. They really have to change this meny, this is NOT gourmet food. We will never go there again.

  • 5/5 Tora H. 2 years ago on Google • 19 reviews
    Celebrated our wedding here, had the whole restaurant to ourselves. The food was absolutely delicious! Meat that melts on the tongue, bread to eat fat on, high-quality fish and cheese. Everyone had a great time! Good drink that matched the food superbly. Would choose "wine package" as those who chose beer package felt they only got a splash in a wine glass. This place is worth visiting!

  • 5/5 Hannah Van E. 4 years ago on Google
    Tried this place randomly since it was close to our Airbnb. Holy cow the food was SO good! It had so many fun and bright flavors (I did the three course fish menu). They found a way to fit us in without a reservation which was nice. I definitely didn't expect this quality of food and the service was great too! What a nice surprise.

  • 4/5 Arno V. 4 years ago on Google
    The food was perfect, totally worth the price . We unfortunately had to wait 45 minutes for the infamous ceviche, long wait after which we complained: they graciously offered the ceviche for everyone (was delicious!). Overall great food, good atmosphere; almost enough to forget the not-so-great organisation !

    Had high expectations, but it was a letdown. The venue was noisy, the food was not impressive and the wine was too hot.
