Visiting Oslo, we were trying to find a nice, inexpensive place to grab some plain food. I figured,…read moregiven the prices, that we'd end up getting a basic lunch. Wow! Was I ever wrong! We ordered a pizza, a caesar salad, and a club sandwich. The fellow we ordered from was very helpful, spoke excellent English, and was very polite while we were probably being annoying tourists. The food was quite simply the best I've had on this trip. My son, who is a very picky eater, ate the pizza without a word of complaint. The person who had the caesar salad kept making noises that sounded like she was imitating Meg Ryan's famous scene from "When Harry Met Sally." And I was seriously tempted to try to buy the club sandwich recipe from the cook. We paid next to nothing for the meal by Oslo standards. The place has comfortable seating, fantastic food, and great people working for it. Simply outstanding! Thank you for having us!

Perhaps the long trek from downtown Oslo dragging my family in tow slightly skewed my opinion of…read morethe food - but - we were not overly impressed with the Japanese dishes in particular. Kids got fresh pizza - which they loved and my wife's curry was "meh." The price tag for five people was nearly $200 -- well more than I would have expected for a glorified food court. But, ambience was nice - no air conditioning however - on one of Oslo's hottest days on record. So all in all, a tiring trek for average food at high prices. We will pass on this next time.

The food was delicious and this place is very clean. (Update on 5/26/13): We got dinner from this place again and I had the same thing (which was again very good). My husband instead got chicken lo mein, which he said was just "fair" (sold by weight - and the price wasn't unreasonable, considering how expensive everything is in Norway). Although the ingredients were listed in front of each hot food item - and although I know some words & phrases in Norwegian - we couldn't understand the ingredients words and therefore asked one of the clerks (a young guy) to translate. He was rather flippant towards us, which wasn't too cool (I speak several languages, but Norwegian doesn't happen to be one of them). The same guy was very brusque when I asked for a receipt - and the young woman wasn't exactly very friendly, either. For those reasons, I'm downgrading my rating to three stars.

The shredded duck sizzling away on the grill will draw you in. They top a significant amount of duck on a 10 inch baguette, add arugula, and a tangy mustard sauce. The duck didn't have the strongest duck flavor, but it was still delicious with all the juicy fat. The crusty baguette was fresh too. I normally don't like mustard, but the mustard sauce they used really complemented the duck. Maybe not the best duck confit you'll ever eat, but surprisingly, it was one of the cheapest things I had in Oslo. A sandwich was only 79 KR, which on my credit card resolved to $9.97 USD. Definitely one of the better valued lunch vendors at Mathallen.

Good value too, at least for Mathallen's upscale standards. If this is your first trip to Mathallen, this is the first place you should go to. You can dine in and have some fine wine or imported french delicatessen, but I have always been distracted by the big pan of simmering confit de canard in the storefront.
