Just like Agnes L I was here for the Yelp Social and my expectations were perhaps not very high…read moreseeing that the previous visit to a Swedish place calling itself an izakaya, Shibumi, was sort of a disappointment (not in quality of the food but just was not an izakaya) and when Lokal Izakaya opens on Kungsholmen and in Lemon Bar it does not really signal that it will be anything good. When I entered I was in a since pleasantly surprised as the place was nicely designed and looked really nice, again though nothing to do with a proper izakaya and the first glance on the menu confirmed that the people behind this place probably never been to an izakaya and potentially never set foot in Japan. The service was however friendly and fairly knowledgeable. They seemed to have things running nicely already from the opening. We started off with some drinks, very nice cocktails and a fairly interesting beer list. The wine list is by no means bad but a bit dull. When it comes to the food we opted to share some dishes to try several things. The seared asparagus with radish and black sesame was a nice and fresh dish. We then also tried the so called Fried Master Pork which was decent but nothing special and it really felt more Chinese than Japanese. We then had one of the sharing dishes, the miso pork. That was also a nice dish but again nothing that felt Japanese at all. In a sense all of the food was good but it was more like some sort of pan-Asian cuisine and slightly to advanced to be an izakaya. The menu is also. It all over the place with medium sized dishes, mains, sharing dishes and sushi and sashimi. All in all a decent place for above average Asian food, if they would change the name (not claim that they are an izakaya) and clean up the menu a bit and focus more it could be better.

Best sushi I have had in Europe. I will be in Uppsala for a week and I am pretty sure I am going…read moreback for a 2nd visit before I leave. I honestly could eat here multiple days in a row because I love Sushi and it is very good sushi. The place is Spartan. It looks like it is mostly takeout but they have a few booths and some tables. Even if you dine in it is pretty much self-serve. There are no waitresses. If you are dining in, you go to the counter, place your order and buy your drinks then sit down. The Sushi Chef (owner I presume) brings your food to whereever you sit. Be warned that they do not speak one lick of English. They have a couple copies of their menu that are in (kinda) English. And they have a picture on the wall across from the cashier of the various fish offered as Sushi. I got my order in by pointing at "Sushi" on the menu, then pointing at the fish pictures and holding up fingers. (Point at the tuna, hold 4 fingers for 4 pieces, point at Snapper, hold up 2 fingers, point at Salmon, hold up 2 fingers) I also pointed at dumplings on the menu (12 dumplings, were a mix of meat dumplings and veggie dumplings) Amazingly the order came out fast and correct. First came the sushi, 4 pieces of Tuna, 2 of Snapper and 2 Salmon. About the time I polished them off, out came my dumplings. Everything was very good. The bonus part....8 pieces of sushi, a platter of 12 dumplings and a Coke Zero was $24.93. Great value for the quality of food. Good food, nice people that don't speak English and Zero ambiance. If you want fine dining....this is not the place. If you just want to eat some really good sushi and dumplings come here. (they have other Japanese dishes offered that I would bet are good...something to try next time).

My chicken was soggy and chewy, all of the vegetables were undercooked and hard and the sauce was completely overpowering the taste of everything with an offensive flavor.

My bibimbap bowl came out in good time. Rice was good. Gochujang was diluted. The salmon tasted parboiled or dipped into hot broth. The "kimchee" was just iceberg lettuce drizzled with vinegar. Cucumber slices and shredded carrot completed the bowl. Meh. But, if you are looking for something clean cut in between flights. This will do it.
