I've been here twice for drinks and twice for lunch. It's a steady 3.5. However I do notice the…read morecharming hipster bartenders take more care with making drinks than the way the food is often soaked in olive oil. Props for that. Food is flavorful, at times heavy, but not stellar food. However if you find yourself hungry for Swedish cuisine in Umea there's really only this place and Rex that makes acceptable food. Don't bother skimping on spending 85kr on a lurid doner. Hot Lunch time meals are about 115kr and the salad, bread and coffee is self-serve. One time I got a vegetarian risotto that tasted like Mac and cheese and another time I got a herb roasted pumpkin dish with other root vegetables that was quite savory and delicious. So it's a kind of inconsistent place, though I haven't had any bar food yet. Oh yeah I see elk is on the menu.

Selection features princess cake (that round green thing with a crepe-like skin and layer of creme topped sponge cake... Which they've made look like a frog face) , icing covered raspberry jam tarts, chocolate balls covered with what looks like coconut or chocolate shavings, Swedish renditions of cheese cake and carrot cakes, whipped meringue tart with apple curd, almond tart (mandeltarte) with fudgy almond bits embedded... How can anyone come in here and order a stupid salad? If you pair something with coffee, it hasn't been too sweet so far... The staff were patient with explaining the contents of each baked good I asked about and suggested things I might like when I told them what i liked/didn't like.

I really wanted to try this place and was super disappointed when we actually went there. It took…read moreus an hour to get our food. When we did get it, it wasn't very good. My fiance's calzone was supposed to have some sort of sausage in it, but it was squishy and an unsettling pink color. Not appetizing. I took a bite and had to spit it out. What had we been waiting an hour for, if our food wasn't properly cooked? It was as if the meat had just been boiled in the watery tomato sauce inside the calzone and that's it. My pizza was just okay, and I don't think I would have been impressed had I waited only 10 minutes instead of an hour. It looked impressive when it came out, but it lacked flavor big time. Another thing I didn't like about this restaurant was the service. I understand their card system (you get a chip card upon entering, and this is what you use to order and pay your check at the end of your meal). What I didn't understand is why not a single staff member seemed bothered about the customers. You have to go up to the cooks yourself to order and get your own water, which is fine, but when you're sitting for an hour, very hungry, and no one cares, it's hard to be forgiving toward the service (or lack thereof). I had a lot of time to look around before our food was done and noticed I wasn't the only one looking around confused. Maybe this is a business model choice that benefits them more than it hurts them, but it did not work for me, especially given the low quality of the food. I will not go to Vezzo again.
