    Surf Burger-All in
    Dan A.

    I returned to try the Crispy Chicken Burger based on a recommendation. Dare I say this sandwich was just as good as the burger. I ordered it "all in" & added Bacon & Cheddar. Buttermilk coating was crispy & the chicken was tender and cooked perfectly! I also tried the onion rings & they were tasty!

    Two words: Garlic Fries!!! I've been here once, and I will go back! I had: Burger with added pineapple and cheddar, garlic fries. Taste: Great! Especially the garlic fries, but the burger was nicely made and had a nice flavour to it. Concept: Spot on! Malmö needs this gem, and everything from the menu to the interior is just, well, spot on. Service: Great. We went there early for lunch before the massive crowd got there, and the staff was very helpful. It's a great concept, as said before, but it's a lot to get a hang of before ordering, and one of the older men working there talked us through the whole thing, even if we were 6 people. What brings it from 5 stars to 4 is that it's a small place, and it gets crowded FAST. You need to be there well before 12 for lunch, and it's kind of loud when it's filled. Which doesn't always please me, but hey, the food's worth it!

    If you're into burgers (even if you're vegetarian or gluten intolerant) this is a must do in malmö. The service is very quick AND the food is very good. You can decide whatever you want in your burger (a lot of the ingredients are included in the price). The mini burger is actually pretty big (so I would recommend this one). The only difference with the regular one is that you only have one meat instead of two. But this restaurant is maybe a little victim of its success because it's really crowded. So don't go there if you're looking for intimacy in a quiet restaurant ;)

    Great little American lunch spot in Malmo. The staff was very friendly when we walked in and gave us a menu in English after we struggled reading the one in front of us. At this location you can build your own burger (chicken, beef, etc.) with toppings from a long list to cater to your craving. I got a chicken burger with BBQ sauce, American cheese, onion, tomato, lettuce, and pineapple - it also came with Mayo on it, so be careful to say no Mayo if you don't like it! They have slushies here if you like those too. There were bathrooms at this location for customers.

    Cheeseburger w fries. Smash style, lovely meat, diabolic bun and the best (!) fries I ever had.

    Had lunch here today based on Yelp reviews and was amazingly suprised. This is the best burger I have had east of the Atlantic! Not only that, their fries was the best I've ever had, anywhere! Do not miss this if you are in Malmö and like burgers.

    Everything was great- food, service, cocktails…read more One of my favorite restaurants in the world

    Heard about it & passed it many times in the past year & on a Tuesday night it was time to see what…read morethe hype was all about. It was packed/fully booked. Our choices for dinner (day before reservation) were seating at 6:15 or earlier or 9:15 or later so reservations well in advance are recommended. We started with cocktails (& they had a few creations) & had a "Buried in Sand" and a "Holy Mule-" Both excellent! Our server was helpful & made some wonderful suggestions once she found out it was our first visit. All the dishes (small & large) are great for sharing. As it seemed a staple of the menu (that changes daily) as well one of their specialties we decided to start with the Bastard Planka. A nice variety of house cured ham, salami, chorizo, pate & pickles-one of the best I've ever had. Also ordered the Klemmings Oysters as our second starter. So fresh, salty & exquisite! For main we ordered the Cod & the Munka Pork (as Pork is their specialty). Cod was cooked to perfection and the Pork had a crust that took it to another level. Both dishes were amazing! We finished with the Pistachio Ice Cream and Paris -Brest. Loved them both but the Paris-Brest is a must try! My only regret is not getting here sooner. Wonderful vibe with great service! They also have a bar area (open kitchen) where you can grab a seat to try some of the entrees or just have a cocktail, beer or glass of wine if they are fully booked. Will definitely be back. Michelin rating well deserved!
