I decided to go here for lunch based on my Yelp search. We came in a little before they opened and…read moresat outside. There were two other families waiting already. Once they were open, it took a long time between us being given menus to finally getting our food- 50 minutes. They should've given us our side while we were waiting for the board. We ordered a side of salami and Swedish cheese and the hairy pig board. I enjoyed the side, but the board not so much. The board consisted of wild boar sausage with broche bun, wild boar taco, peppercorn fries, and wild boar lasagna. The board was quite heavy and salty. I didn't have enough stomach space to even try the taco. I did enjoy the fries, but it's not enough for me to want to return.

When staying next to Gamla Stan we read that this was a place not to be missed..only it was so easy…read moreto miss and we had to give a pretty good search before finally locating it. This place is tucked below street level and is very intimate and downright cozy with its low beam wood ceiling, wood tables in every cranny it can fit to accommodate guests, and a tiny little bar. You can find this place outside by the wooden sign with the boar on it, then simply peer down into the low window and if you see a hairy pig nomming on a sausage, congratulations! You're in the right place. We stopped in not long before closing time and that was probably the only reason we were able to get a much coveted table. The barkeep was nice and let us put in a quick order while also getting us drinks. Unfortunately for me, there were not very many gluten free tapa options on the menu, but there were a few naturally gf. The salami and sausages were thought to have gluten so I went with the smoked shell on shrimp, a cheese dip, and some salad with olives. I wasn't crazy about the smoked shrimp but the olives and cheese were good. The husband enjoyed a sausage in bun which he said was great. Overall we liked the vibe and I think if you can eat the locally sourced meats like my husband it's probably a pretty solid place. If you're gf or allergy you'll probably still be hungry at the end of the meal like I was.

Mycket besviken på upplevelsen på Pinchos Norrlandsgatan…read more Vi var en grupp på 13 personer som kom dit måndagen den 12 maj omkring kl. 17 för att äta middag. Vi förstod självklart att vi inte hade bokat bord och att det därför kunde ta lite extra tid att ordna plats för en större grupp. Vi gjorde också tydligt klart för personalen att vi absolut inte hade bråttom och att vi gärna kunde vänta. Trots detta pratade personalen med en supervisor som sedan kom fram och meddelade att de inte tänkte servera oss överhuvudtaget. Det som gjorde situationen ännu mer frustrerande var att restaurangen inte ens var särskilt full vid tillfället. Det fanns synligt lediga bord, och vi hade redan förklarat att vi var flexibla och inte förväntade oss snabb service. Att avvisa 13 trevliga betalande kunder under de omständigheterna kändes helt orimligt och gav ett väldigt dåligt intryck av både kundservice och gästbemötande. Vi gick istället till Bastard Burgers bredvid, där de välkomnade oss direkt trots att de endast hade en person i serveringen och en kock som arbetade. De hanterade vår stora grupp professionellt, effektivt och med en positiv inställning hela kvällen. Skillnaden mellan restaurangerna kunde inte ha varit tydligare. Tyvärr gav den här upplevelsen ett mycket negativt intryck av Pinchos. Kundservice och bemötande betyder mycket, och här misslyckades restaurangen totalt.

The restaurant was fairly busy as we had to wait 45 minutes for the next available reservation when we initially arrived. The portions were tiny. I knew this was a tapas style restaurant where portions are small and I understand what tapas are, but these servings were ridiculously small. The photos did not reflect and were misleading. The length of time between ordering and delivery was ridiculously long and it seemed unnecessary given the portion size. By the time we sat down to eat the dining room was fairly empty and most of the remaining parties were drinking only. We decided against a second round of tapas, paid and left. I had a burger and the loaded fries. My wife had a snort of a steak and my son had a pizza Margherita. Pinchos seems fine for drinks or casual banter with friends over snacks.

The depth of flavor and texture in every dish had everyone in our group more than satisfied. I thoroughly enjoyed the scallop, chicken liver, and cod dishes most. Service was excellent. The only knock would be the length of time we spent here. It was about a 3.5 hour experience, which is a little bit too long.

We were impressed that he'd taken the time to do so. Arriving for our reservation around sunset, the warm intimacy of the atmosphere became apparent. We began with drinks, but again needed a bit of help with the menu, as we hadn't remembered every detail. Victor, our server, was just as knowledgeable on each plate as the chef had been. He took my husband's need to avoid gluten seriously, which we appreciated. Each of the dishes we ordered was truly outstanding, with each and every element prepared exactly as it was meant to be (nuts toasted to flavorful perfection, and so on). The attention to detail was beyond any meal we've had in years, which made it the most flavorful and enjoyable dinner we've had in years. Beyond this, the service was impeccable, a compliment we can rarely give these days. This was a top-notch dining experience which we can't recommend enough.

Luckily for me the song selection on that particular Saturday night was ragga, hip hop, and dance hall - which I love by the way. In between drinks I danced a lot with my friends and had a lot of fun, but it's not a traditional Swedish type of music so you won't find the stereotypical swedes around there. If you want something a little different, go down the stairs, there is a little pub and another dance floor (which was then playing very intense dub step).
