The outside patio is always packed! The menu is simple, with the dishes elegantly prepared, and each flavor exquisite. I had the Halibut, which was cooked to perfection. I also enjoyed a berry and white chocolate mousse dessert that was outstanding. I highly recommend Bølgen and Moi (particularly if someone else is paying for it!)

The wings sauce had a nice kick, but not too hot. The burger was so juice and perfectly cooked and the fish and chips batter was one of the best I've had. It came with a big side of pea purée. The waiting was a bit longer than expected, but well worth it. Pricey, but we expected that being in Norway.

Zarinas offers both gluten free options for pizza and for pasta and the meal was fantastic, especially the home-made crusts for the regular pizza. The gluten free crusts were from a package (average) but the toppings were delicious and the chef did come out to apologize they didn't have something hand-made and did advise that with 24 hrs notice, they could do a hand-made gluten free crust. We then inquired about gluten free lasagna and he offered to have us come back the next night and he would prepared a gluten free meal just for us. So, the next night we went back after requesting the gluten-free lasagna and sure enough, they had prepared a "family style" meal with a full gluten-free lasagna, salad, garlic toast, and then ice cream and strawberries for the kids for dessert. The meal was fantastic and I can't say enough about their effort to make our evening enjoyable. The restaurant was very family friendly, a nice atmosphere, and a wonderful staff. Highly recommended!

Also, a really pretty area to walk around in after you're done eating.
