What can we say? The food is amazing, which is a given with chef Stefan Ekengren. Great ambiance, service and with a concise and modern wine list. Sweden, Kazakhstan and USA mingle with producers from more classical wine regions, but not necessarily made in classical styles. Lots of good things to choose from, at decent price points.

The fire is still burning at Ekstedt, which was one of the first to use fire as the main source of energy in the kitchen. The ambiance is warm (!), the food is as good as ever and the service is friendly and professional. The Swedish celebrity chef Niklas Ekstedt has left the daily flow but the food here is consistently very good.

DoMa started as a little restaurant in the home of the owners, but it is now found on Nybrogatan in the Östermalm neighbourhood. You’ll find a smaller space on the ground floor, a large bar downstairs, a separate dining room seating 8-12 and an outdoor terrace in summer. And catering, cakes and a menu for children! The menu is shall we say modern Swedish, diverse and the restaurant sources some produce from its own gardens at Ingarö. And it is very tasty. On the wineside we find many favorites from Champagne, Loire and Burgundy, but Austria, Italy and other destinations are present too.

Jim & Jacob’s girlfriend Copine has moved in at Kommendörsgatan in the Östermalm neighbourhood. It is an upscale dining room, kitchen bar and a separate dining room that seats up to 14. The menu focuses on France (as you would have guessed by the name) but the rest of the Mediterranean is also visited. It is a beautiful space and the experienced waiting staff makes you feel at home. The wine list is a few pages long, has a good selection by the glass and lists both classical and natural wines. France and Italy are up front but the USA and South Africa give extra choice for the curious wine l...

Brasserie Astoria in central Stockholm is the latest Frantzén group address and it is an impressive opening. A venue to behold, and the same goes for the crowd. The cuisine is respectful of the classics and the service is at the level you would expect for a top venue like this. The sommeliers have built a solid wine book from the start, including an impressive number of back vintages and a few natural producers as well. They will need to keep up the smart buying, considering the flow of great wine during Astoria’s opening. There is also a wine bar in one of the beautiful rooms.

Sherry List of the Year Sweden, presented by González Byass 2022
The chefs from Aloë have created the kitchen and menu for the new luxury hotel Villa Dagmar in central Stockholm. (With Franzén’s new Astoria just down the street this is the new hotspot downtown). The DNA from Aloë is visible in the menu and the delicious and sometimes quite spicy dishes are served in beautiful dining rooms and the orangerie. Just next door you have the Östermalm saluhall. Aloë’s young but experienced sommelier Rasmus has created the wine list with the ambition to always present plenty of wines ready to drink. If you, like me, think that Aloë is one of the world’s best restau...

Coco & Carmen is a stylish, playful high-quality neighbourhood bistro in Östermalm, Stockholm. It opened in 2019 and is run by the team behind the more rowdy sibling Punk Royale. But if the latter is wild and crazy, Coco & Carmen is more classic in its style, without lacking elements of surprise and a cheerful atmosphere. The fixed tasting menus apply to both lunch and dinner, and the dishes, updated continuously, are well prepared, classic, and always with a personal twist. The wine list is also leaning towards the classic, mainly focusing on European regions – especially France and Italy...

To the left is the wine bar Vinstocken with a bar and a few tables. The Kasten team has chosen to list more classical wines in the restaurant and somewhat more hip and natural wines in the bar. At one of our first visits, we ran into sommeliers, importers and a visiting wine producer fr...
