37 HagagatanEden offers a flamboyant oasis with influences from both the surroundings and the Mediterranean. The restaurant is housed in a turn-of-the-century house by Lake Mälaren and serves seasonal food with local ingredients. Vegetables are the focus, but poultry, fish and everything in between are also on the menu. The creative director of the kitchen is the renowned Sally Voltaire.
Also, just behind the villa you will find the sister Fuego, a pop-up restaurant with roots in Mexican cuisine and French vineyards, but with the heart of small-scale producers.
The green on the menu is in focus and the flavors from the grill take a large place in our dishes

One of the best restaurants I know. You are greeted by a seemingly simple menu in an unpretentious former pizzeria, but inside the shell you will find absolutely incredible food and a very nice atmosphere. Difficult to book a table, but they often have some drop-in seats at the bar.

A friendly little corner of the world, Schmaltz offers a small perfect little restaurant with inspiration from the Jewish East European / New York scene. Alongside schmaltz classics such as chicken soup and the reuben sandwich that has definitely made its way to Stockholm via an even more classic Jewish New York deli, a pie on prime rib and caramelized onions is served, among other things, which has a lovely crispy puff pastry cover. Yes, at Schmaltz, food is cooked with a capital F. It's salty and hearty. You get full. And served with a certain elegance. Also by number out of the naturally fun wine cellar down a spiral staircase.
The staff are attentive, warm and genuinely pleasant from start to finish.

Café Tranan is one of those places that got extremely trendy at the end of the nineties. Bet then after all these years it´s still one of the classic hot spots of Stockholm. The restaurant on the street level is very classy and unpretentious at the same time. Even though it's not on the menu, if you ask you can order the most classic Swedish dish there is: meatballs with potatoes. It's also one of the best versions of this dish that I know.
The door on the right leads down to a bar in the basement. It's really nice, and often with great DJ:s playing in the bar.
- Strongly recommend Tranan!
