    The view from my table at Restaurant J. Lovely.
    John L.

    Staying as I was fifteen minutes walk away on Marinstaden, my host had recommended Restaurant J as a good choice for an evening meal, provided I was capable of negotiating the temporary barriers on the boardwalk between the two while a bridge is being constructed. It was a glorious late afternoon and the sun was blazing down as I walked along the way, accompanied by kayaks and ocean liners making their way along the channel. Soon, the restaurant and other buildings came into view, but the eye is most definitely taken by the beautiful water sculpture that cascades into the sea in a graceful arc right next to Restaurant J. The lovely weather and the amazing architecture would excuse all faults, but in truth Restaurant J did not have that many. I had not booked ahead and the maitre'd was a little diffident at first when I arrived (around 5.30pm), but there were plenty of seats available on this Sunday afternoon and so I was shown to a seat and offered a menu. The initial coolness from the staff dissipated quickly when I ordered the meatballs with lingonberries and the Summer ale to go with it. Before this arrived, I was presented with some very tasty bread rolls, crackers and salted butter, which was a treat for the palate. When the main dish arrived, I was delighted with the taste and the quality of the food. Lingonberries are an unusual choice for me, but these went very well with the main components of the dish and the whole experience was very satisfactory. I was keen to investigate the sculpture in more detail and to head back into the city, so the bill was quickly handled and I was given good advice on the best route for the return journey. An excellent introduction to Swedish cuisine and to the slightly less effusive manner I was to encounter during my stay in Stockholm. The main dish and the single ale cost just under £23, so it's a little pricey, but the location is worth the extra expense.

    The type of restaurant where you would go to celebrate birthday, when you need some calm atmosphere out of town, when you want to eat some fish - so, I did all of that: went there on my birthday to have a cosy evening eating fish stew. Nearly the half of the other visitors that day were there according to the same there reasons, which again confirms the that it was the right choice for the evening. The restaurant is mentioned in the Michelin guide, and I am sure it was mentioned on purpose - the food is great and service is outstanding. They do not offer great wine selection, but presented positions were more than good. I would recommend to book a table a bit later in the evening like around 20 as if the restaurant is full, the noise level is very high and it does not facilitate in hearing what your vis-a-vis says. I would come back there again on an sunny summer day for a lunch - the outside area with wooden chairs towards the sea and Djurgården is magnificent. I would come back there for a dinner in the cold winter day - to sit cosily near the fireplace with some good wine.

    Swedish cuisine is all about meatball & potato. Highly recommend Restaurang J's version. Enjoy the view of Baltic Sea while eating my delicious meatballs and mash!

    Back again. As good as ever. And how DO the Swedes enjoy sitting at the picnic tables? It is 22…read moredegrees. Got the usual, the herring with mashed potatoes, three sides,and a piece of rye crisp. We had the pickled cucumber, lingonberries and cremefreche salad. Nice serving but I wanted more. IT IS SO GOOD. But we are here for a month so I WILL be back. I meant to take pictures of the food but I was too anxious to eat. Friendly service as always. Nicely packed to go. We have been coming here for years and I highly recommend.

    This unassuming food cart offered me one of the best meals I had in Stockholm. Simple, yet…read moredelicious. I'd never had fried herring like this before. I'm so glad I tried it. It's pretty much a one person show from what I could see. The owner attended to me efficiently and without the slightest hesitation. I'm sorry to say that I don't speak Swedish (I wish I did I can tell you) but he was able to communicate with me and for that I will always be grateful. My plate had, if I recall correctly, four breaded and fried herring fillets. It had a coleslaw (which I found a surprising addition, creamy mashed potatoes, pickled cucumbers, red onions, and a little wedge of crispbread. I loved every bite. It was a generous plate. I particularly enjoyed eating a combination of the potatoes, cuke, onion, and fish on a corner of the crispbread as I munched away. There are a few nearby picnic type tables. So there was a place I could sit and enjoy this meal overlooking the water and a corner of the old town. If you find yourself in Stockholm, do yourself a favor and go to here. Even if you think you don't like herring, try it this way. I bet you'd be surprised.
