Came by for dinner the other night and it was a decent experience. The restaurant is located inside the Grand Hotel and was difficult to find. There is an access point from the street towards the right of the front entrance. Alternatively, there is a strange entrance via the back of the restaurant via the front entrance of the hotel. Service started off with a complimentary coat and bag check. The dining room was a beautiful casual bistro featuring an open kitchen. Matbaren is featured in the Michelin guide. Opted for the 4 course menu and it was decent. Started off with the coarsely grounded beef tartare and it reminded me of potato chips, topped with some black truffles which were super fragrant. The cold smoked salmon course was delicious with contrasting flavors from the bread crumbs on the bottom along with the cream layer in the middle. The lobster soup tilted towards a Thai flavor served with a curry and some snow crab dumplings. The dumpling skins were a touch thick though... The last course featured a shish kebab which came out super fresh and flavorful. The lamb was cooked to a perfect medium rare and the vegetables were super fresh. Meal ended off with some complimentary desserts. read more

The food was excellent and I liked the menu on tray display for each guest. My boyfriend enjoyed his duck the most whereas I stocked up on herring. The views are fantastic and service is spot on. Out of all of the restaurants we visited in Stockholm, the food at Matbaren was excellent but it simply wasn't my favorite. Can't argue with the prices either, it's very reasonable. Maybe I just didn't enjoy the tightness between our table and the guests around us. We could hear the intimate conversations next to us, so they could probably hear us too. read more

Ambience and service was great. Make sure you eat before you go. Otherwise you'll need a pizza afterwards. All the plates are size of an appetizer at twice the price. Felt taken advantage of. read more

Amazing! My friend and I spent 10 days in Denmark and Sweden and this was our favorite meal by a long shot. But before you make a reservation some warnings: 1. Don't go if you're not a foodie. There's plenty of great food in Stockholm. Mathias Dahlgren is a special foodie treat. 2. Don't go if you are worried about how much you are spending. It is very expensive, especially if you order wine or drinks. The location is the Grand Hotel in a beautiful front room facing the harbor. I called and a made a reservation for the same night -- at 8:00 pm. (20:00 to the Swedes.) We chose to sit at the bar so we could talk to the bartender and watch the servers complete the final preparation. I can't remember our waiter's name. I wish I could; she was terrific. We started with an Old Fashioned and a Negroni. Excellent. Among the extraordinary dishes we had were - peas and cauliflower - a fabulous salad of greens, shoots and beets - potatoes and truffles. Extraordinary! - crayfish Bam! We also had wine for my friend and a beer for me. All in all this was a glorious meal on a glorious evening that was the highlight of a glorious visit to Stockholm. read more

Matbaren is a great space that feels hip yet cozy and relaxed. Favorites of the night were the steamed pork bun, seared tenderloin, and the passion fruit dessert. The pork bun was a nice surprise as usually most places that do this style have more Asian flavors but the cumin/jalapeno was a nice touch. The seared tenderloin, oh my gosh! I do not think I have had meat this tender and delicious before. Must try! Steamed pork bun, jalapenos, cumin, coriander Charcoal grilled pig from Onsberg, truffle, cabbage, hazelnut Seared tenderloin from Svartadalen White asparagus & artichokes, macadamia nuts, lemon, browned butter Variation of passion fruit & cape gooseberry, mint, coriander, lime Peach & raspberries, pistachios, vanilla read more

Located inside Stockholm's Grand Hôtel and the perennial recipient of One Michelin Star it was for lunch that two guests sat down at Matbaren, one of three eateries owned and operated by Chef Mathias Dahlgren whose Rutabaga stands directly across the way. Still one of Sweden's top Toques, a Bocuse d'Or win in 1997 and several Cookbooks making Dahlgren a household name while at the same time remaining a popular recommendation amongst gourmet travelers, it was after navigating the extravagant Hotel's corridors that two guests were seated at a hightop along the far wall, various styles of tables and chairs giving the room character while the Staff is pleasant and accommodating. Finding wooden boxes containing menus, bags, silverware and glasses at each seat, a unique arrangement that at times makes one feel as though they are eating off a "lunch tray," it was in the brown paper that Crisps of Flax and Rye were found, these as well as warm Spelt Sourdough each good on their own but even more delicious when slathered with salted Butter reportedly churned less than thirty minutes away. Unpretentious despite its accolades, the fact that Matbaren was apparently at one time a more casual way to experience Mathias Dahlgren's cuisine than an eponymous Michelin 2-stared spot in the same Hôtel likely part of that reason, it was after lengthy deliberation that the decision was made to order one 495 SEK Lunch Prix Fixe plus four additional items a la carte, a trio of Appetizers arriving after perhaps fifteen minutes all simple and delicious with the fresh Herring amidst two types of Eggs a pleasant surprise to someone who typically considers it "too fishy." Happily finding the Croquettes stuffed with Rillettes rather than filleted Fish, the smokiness balanced by tangy Tartar Sauce, it was with the Lamb Sausage gone in one bite each that second courses were fired, the lightly seared local Pork supple and rich compared to American where most kitchens overcook the Meat while a dish of Swedish Morels and tender Asparagus dressed in umami and acid suggested Dahlgren's recently-opened Vegetable-centric Restaurant likely warrants attention. In need of an afternoon pick-me-up, several miles and meals already logged plus more to follow, it was alongside a Double Espresso and Ice that two Desserts were presented, the Prix Fixe's Rhubarb & Strawberry Crumble beautifully composed with sweet, sour, crunchy, creamy, hot and cold all accounted for while Matbaren's famous Baked Wild Chocolate from Bolivia charted a similar course by way of not-quite-molten Cake playing off Sour Cream, Toffee and candied Nuts. Rounding out a very pleasant Meal with Mignardises, both the dainty Orange Caramel and Madeline-like Almond Cookies again speaking well of Matbaren's Bread and Pastry Team, it was with a fairly modest bill paid that another look at the hotel was taken, a sign welcoming guests for some sort of White Guide Conference explaining why both of Dahlgren's Restaurants were fully booked for the evening and perhaps portending good news for the Chef in next year's edition of Scandinavia's premier dining publication. read more

This is an excellent restaurant! One of my top 3 choices in Stockholm! Service: 5, ambience: 5, food: 4 value: 5 For a Michelin star restaurant, my three course lunch (including free bread, coffee and petit fours - which were all excellent despite being free) costs around $50USD. If you are used to NYC prices, it is a steal!! Since menu changes all the time, doesn't make sense to comment on each dish I had. But I'll tell you this: each dish was executed perfectly. Even the free bread, coffee, and petit fours were top notch! The only thing I think they could improve is bringing more innovation to the food - to create new taste profiles people have never experienced - which I think Lilia Ego and the like are currently better at. read more

We had booked Matbaren in advance before coming to Stockholm and had been looking forward to it given the positive reviews it gets - and it did not disappoint. The restaurant itself is laid back and has an excellent atmosphere - not stuffy/pretentious at all which is too common in Michelin starred restaurants. The service isn't perhaps as top notch as you'd get at some other fine dining establishments - for example, we didn't have waiting staff topping up our water continually etc. The amount of food we ordered was on recommendation of our server, who suggested we order 1 dish per person, then continue to order 1 more after each until we were satisfied. We had a cheese starter then, 1 ox sausage in bun, 2 steamed pork buns, 1 potatoes & truffle, 1 gyoza with mushrooms and 1 baked wild chocolate for dessert. All of the dishes were excellent but the ox sausage, steamed pork buns and chocolate dessert were our favourites. Overall, we didn't find it as expensive as others suggested and felt it was decent value for money for a Michelin starred meal in an expensive city. We would definitely eat here again - expect creative, flavoursome dishes with a laidback atmosphere and service! read more

We purposely planned a long layover in Stockholm for this treat. It lived up to its reputation and so much more! To start, our server was one of the most personable and attentive I've ever experienced. We didn't make reservations since it's relatively easy to get a spot at the bar - and this turned out to be the best way to experience Matbaren. Loved watching the (sous) chefs work. We ordered: * tartar of topside * gyoza with mushrooms * steamed bun "pork adobo" * seared Swedish squid * butter fried turbot toast * baked wild chocolate from Bolivia Of course, the menu changes, but all that to say the menu is eclectic and creative! Each plate was a playful presentation with delightful flavors. I can't stop thinking about that gyoza and mushrooms. 100% would return at the next opportunity! read more

A fairly easy-going atmosphere (neither good nor bad, it just is), great service, and excellent herring. The location is very convenient, and the food is good. I tried the seared reindeer heart simply to say that I had, but it wasn't really for me. read more

Two stereotypes about Scandinavia - one smashed and one reconfirmed on my first day dinner in Stockholm. This restaurant confirms that Scandinavian food is not boring. Great mix of traditional Skandinavian and international flavors. Visually a treat as well. But yes it is expensive. Take what you think you'd pay in the US and double it. So, yes you can get food of similar quality for a lot less but not with the Swedish blend. The seared Skrei was cooked perfectly (though a bit strong with the mayo).and the adobo chicken bun scrumptious. read more

Boy am I glad braised pork steam buns are making a comeback. We can probably thank Momofuku for the more recent trend, but after I rediscovered them at Pluto in Copenhagen a couple months ago, I simply cannot get enough. You know when something you taste is so good that you forget all form of decorum and blurt out with half masticated food in your mouth that this is the most amazing thing ever? Who cares if it's a Michelin star restaurant and I'm with business colleagues. Some things just really deserve bad table manners in the form of enthusiastic celebration, and if I wasn't already celebrating by being given my own personal serving of The Most Delicious Butter Ever to eat with my brown paper bag packaged knäckebröd, and to pair with a fantastically delicious glass of crisp and fresh white wine from the Loire Valley, I was definitely celebrating after my first bite of braised pork. Icing on the cake? Dessert (yes, there's an intentional pun in there somewhere). Pudding made from milk from Säby Farm, decorated with creams and ice creams and other caramelized treats. As an added bonus because I think my waitress just enjoyed watching me squeal with joy over the good food I was being served, I got an extra bowl of some delicious treats that I actually had to stop eating for fear of discovering the threshold of too much of a good thing in public. Prices are steep (nothing in comparison to Matsalen next door), but totally worth it. read more

Went here with a colleague. We came in late from London and he had promised me we were in for a treat. Boy was he right. This is in the basement of the Grand Hotel. I had stayed 10 years in Stockholm and never been. The concept is that you try a "small dish" and yo continue to have small dishes until you are full. The food is nothing short of amazing. We had two dishes each and various wines to go with the dishes Our server was very well educated and gave us really good advise both on dishes and wine. Have to go back next time I am in Stockholm. Great atmosphere and amazing food. read more

Matbaren serves up some really great Swedish food and I truly enjoy the service as well. It is really a lot more relaxed than Mathias Dahlgren's more upscale restaurant 'Matsalen' so it is place that is well suited for just a casual dinner. The food is really great (may not be really as good as at Matsalen but it is still great). It is also great value for money (at least to be in Sweden). The dishes may not huge but for me I am usually rather full after eating two dishes (they usually recommend 2-3 dishes per person) so we often share a dessert after that. It is of course still a Michelin starred restaurant so it will of course not be cheap but it is good value. Despite having a Michelin star the feeling is still very relaxed and casual so no need to dress up to come here. Reservations are recommended but there are always a few tables for walk-ins but to avoid disappointment do book in advance. The service has always been friendly, pleasant and above all knowledgeable when I have been here. The slight disappointment has been the coffee (yes, granted I am a bit of coffee nerd), they have served some rather awful coffee when I have been here. I am not asking for the best ever coffee experience but with so many local Swedish coffee roasters it should be possible to find something other than the mass market stuff. read more

Visited this hip restaurant to experience enlightened and modern Swedish cuisine based on the best seasonal produce and products available. There are proper tables, but, I was seated at their 'food bar' that afforded a nice view of the open kitchen concept. The menu is divided up into creative headings for dishes: I chose to focus most of my attention ordering both dishes on offer in their "From the Plant World" section, as well as their amazingly good steamed beef buns from their "From Other Countries" department! Details in each dish matter most here; each dish is expertly constructed, letting the ingredients speak for themselves. The food is served tapas style, one dish after another, no rush, and you order what you like until you feel satisfied. Wines by the glass were all excellent and attractively priced. The service was polished, confident, and still very welcoming and warm (they even surprised me with a sample of alcoholic ginger beer from Scotland, to go along with my beef buns, with compliments, skål!). Finishing with my espresso, I was served delightful petit fours - another nice touch. Details matter here. The design of the restaurant is modern Swedish, cool, a bit off-the-wall and colourful. What is there not to like about Matbaren? This place is a champion of good taste. read more

My husband and I were so lucky to have gotten a reservation here last minute. Make sure you book a table as early as you know you will be in Stockholm. Or, plan a trip to Stockholm just for this restaurant. The ambiance is very modern and relaxed. The kitchen is open. Tables are very close to one another so you could have conversations with tables nearby. And when everyone is so happy to be eating, this sort of happens naturally. So, for all of the introverts of the world, rest up and be prepared to converse with neighbors over your collective joy and delicious food. The menu is made up of small dishes which you are to order one at a time, a la carte. The pace of the meals is as fast as you can gobble up one at a time. You can't go wrong with any dish on there. I tried things I don't usually eat by the recommendation of the diners next to us, and was just delighted. I did not expect to be blown away by an Asian-style taco in Stockholm, or a roasted barbecue pork sandwich (being from Texas). Just come to the restaurant with a big appetite and leave happy. If you're not in the mood for alcohol (I wasn't), try the Fentiman's for a lightly sweetened bubbly beverage. Whenever I go to a nice restaurant I take pictures of all of the food, but I was so enmeshed in the deliciousness that I didn't capture the dessert. The dessert was divine as well. I would come back to Stockholm just for this restaurant. Oh, and a perfect date night is preceding this restaurant with a date at the Spa in the Grand Hotel. I felt like it was my honeymoon all over again. read more

5 course selection was excellent. Hamachi and reindeer sashimi was very fresh and flavorful. Lamb with grilled mayo (yes the mayo was grilled) and chimichurri was rich without being too much.

This place has an amazing knack to turn things that look borderline disgusting - to fantastic tasting. Best deal of stockholm. Michelin star quality for the price of a heavy happy hour on the water. Given how expensive we found Stockholm to be, the price tag for this dinner was more than palpable. Pork belly buns are a must. Jewish artichokes with beets were delectable (and i hate vegetables). We finished with a weird sardine with roe dish and that was surprisingly good despite how the parts may taste separately. Head here for a great time. It's got an amazing balance of seeming upscale but also extremely casual and relaxing. read more

Perhaps our expectations were too high, as we had read so many great things about Matbaren, but we found it to be only okay, and nothing exceptional. Perhaps the biggest problem is the limited scope of Matbaren's menu. I'd guess there were no more than about 12-15 menu items, and, unless you are a seafood lover, you probably have only about 4-5 choices. The dishes we chose were innovative to a certain extent, and the server-suggested wine/beer pairings were spot on (think Chinese crab dumplings served with Ginger beer, e.g.). We found difficulty picking items from the limited menu, ending up with restaurant-described "mid-sized" dishes of langoustine, beetroot with Jerusalem artichoke, and lemon sole, plus a very good dessert each (rhubarb crumble with vanilla ice cream), plus two wines/beers per person, and the bill, including gratuity was just under $300. The food was good, but this restaurant, based on our experience in other one-star Michelin restaurants, does not deserve one star. Perhaps on our next visit, we'll spring for the big sister Matsalen, and be prepared to spend $650/person all-inclusive. read more

We set the bar pretty high on our first night in Stockholm. Our research led us here, and, hearing that it was difficult to get into, we were circling like vultures when the doors opened. We scored two seats at the bar and dove in. Dishes are what they like to call "half-portions," so we went to town on a few. We both started with a memorable terrine of foie gras with artichokes, hazelnuts, and olive oil. For mains, my husband got an open-faced lamb sandwich, and I went with fried sole with baby potatoes and spring vegetables. It was possibly the best riff on a fish-and-chips I've had yet. I have to devote some time to the beverages I chose as well. With dinner, I enjoyed a juniper beer, which I believe was a collaboration between Mathias Dahlgren and the St Erik's Bryggeri. It was totally unique and really delicious. For dessert, I had a vodka that had been doctored with fennel and lemon, and my husband chose an aged Calvados. While we did not specifically order a dessert, we got it anyway. A small basket of miniature madeleines and some cocoa peanut brittle arrived for us to snack on. Service was performed by multiple team members, and they were attentive and more than gracious. read more

Mathias Dahlgren's Matbaren is definitely one of the best restaurants in Stockholm. Swedish flare at its best. More laid back than the swankier other Dahlgren restaurant beside it-- Matsalen--it serves up innovative yet comforting a la carte dishes. Everything from the bread basket, to dessert was perfectly executed and outstanding. Two of the dishes I tried were even vegetarian, and they simply blew me away. We were seated by the bar which gave us a nice view of the kitchen and the staff at work. Food is served in wooden "cafeteria style" trays which goes hand-in-hand with the concept of Matbaren. Reservations go quickly so make sure to book in advance. The service was truly impeccable. The waitress working the tables around the bar was really knowledgeable and her suggestions really matched what I expressed I liked. I highly recommend the following dishes: -Deep fried Potatoes with Baked Egg and Chantrelle Mushrooms -Beet salad with Hazelnuts and Jerusalem Artichoke -Game from Ostermalm with Anchovies -Course Ground rib eye with Comte creme -Farmer's milk pudding with Cloudberry At the end of our meal, we received complimentary delicious Madeleines as a parting snack. What a sweet ending. read more

Ive now eaten at all of Chef Dahlgren's places and each brings their own experience. At Matbaren a leisurely comfortable lunch was to be had. An a la carte menu done with great ingredients like that of the other two concepts. They start you with a small bag of local bread now made at the Green Rabbit Bakery. You are given a tray that has all your utensils, glasses, and a menu. I started with a natural apple drink, a small salad, and then a basket of fresh fish/chips/vegetables. All perfectly cooked and super tasty. Then they follow with some madeleines and some peanut fidge as a petit fours. Luckily I took it easy I knew I was eating two more times soon after (with Matbordet being later) in the day. Service is super friendly and laid back but no less attentive than what you'd expect from any of chef Dahlgren's places. You just cant go wrong with any of the concepts in the adjacent spaces... read more

It might not be the kind of place you go to every week but it is definitely worth a visit if you want to celebrate something special. The concept is easy : pick one meal at a time with one main ingredient, be it meat, fish, veggies or dessert. The service was up to what you would expect for the price you pay : knowledgeable and attentive. The steamed beef buns were very tasty. If you are more into vegetarian options, I would highly recommend the crispy potatoes with a baked egg, basil, chanterelles and garlic. As for dessert, the farmer's milk pudding with cloudberry, vanilla and caramel sorbet was truly delicious ! read more

It is located on the ground floor of the Grand Hotel but was informal with a happy atmosphere in the background. Just right! read more

I'm not one to seek out places with Michelin stars very regularly, but I found myself in this establishment not too long ago and did definitely enjoy the experience. For a restaurant like this there is of course the hype to live up to, as well as good tasting everything and great service. The latter which is fairly difficult to come by in Sweden. But they are almost there, with the service, yay! Friendly, recommending-things-off-the-menu staff checking up almost enough for us to keep busy throughout the tapas-style approach they are doing. Only set-back was the incredibly slow delivery of the check at the end of the night. The menu is easy to navigate--even in english, the interior design of the space is fitting, simple yet stylish, with views of the royal palace and the open kitchen as the most fun aspect. Yes, the food is really good, but in my humble opinion I am going to say the veggie dishes is probably the most fun and exciting constellations they are doing. My favorite for my night was roasted whole beet roots with an artichoke paste and of course a bunch of additional ingredients places like this introduce to make you to go: ooooh, that looks innnnteresting...I probably need that in my life. The beer selection is represented by a few local breweries that could impress more. Also, money. read more

Overall experience at Matbären was disappointing. Pricey given the poor performance. Atmosphere is relaxed with a friendly staff. The ornament is beautiful with a view on the open kitchen. Clientele is pretentious. Jumbo shrimps (335 SEK) are of very good quality, plump. However they are only served with a simple sauce and nothing else. You additionally have to peel them yourself. No added value from the chef! Next dish was a plate of squids, overcooked and way to garlicky and salty (265 SEK). It left me a very unpleasant feeling in mouth, almost nauseous. Lamb racks are decent, a bit fatty (295 SEK). The mint and green apple sauce makes a weird combination. I am not convinced. Three attempts and three fails led me to stop here. I refreshed myself with a nice berry sorbet, simple but well executed (75 SEK). The only success of the dinner... Cannot recommand the place. read more

Love the excellent use of sweet & sour ingredients in the cooking - reindeer & bleak roe (with sliced potatoes socked in vinegar that tasted like yuzu to me), organic chicken liver with maple syrup just changed my perception for chicken liver as a sweet opening dish, fried mushrooms dumplings with shredded truffles in a salty citrus sauce & finally the Lime sabayonne with madarin sorbet & vanilla ice-cream drizzled with honey, olive oil & pistachios ended off my dinner on an absolutely sweet note :) Very satisfied with all the dishes. read more

Several reviewers have inaccurately described this as a Michelin-star which it is not. It doesn't have any stars. It is a Michelin-reviewed restaurant. There are more than 15000 restaurants in the world reviewed in the guide. This is one of them. I didn't like the food. I hated the dessert, even though it looked very instagrammable. I had the fix price menu. There were four courses; yellow-fin tuna was the only thing I liked. Smoke halibut was ok (I didn't like chunks of apple floating in sauce). Reindeer dish, lamb dish, lemon/vanilla ice-cream had me wanting to just get it over with and get out. They were all complex dishes, but the flavors just didn't jive very well. Petit fours, hard bread, soft bread and any of the entrees; nothing wowed me. I felt like I was walking though a supermarket tasting random things. I hated the dessert.

I don't understand what all the fusses are about! The place serves absolutely overpriced food that lacks creativity most of all! I mean whatever you order is almost exactly as it would be in any other restaurants but in smaller portion basically! I'm sure they use fresh & probably the best ingredients but there is nothing exciting about their food or menu.specially when you pay this much, probably you've stepped inside with a lot higher expectations but you would get really disappointed. That was my case anyway.... I thought their mugs were cute so I bought four of them in the restaurant, while design is nice every time I've served tea or coffee in them to someone they've burnt their hands, considering it doesn't have a handle I think the material should have been somewhat different. Overall what I'm trying to say is that there is nothing wrong with this place but don't go there expecting anything special cause you'll be crushed!! read more
