It has a very thoughtful bar program and excellent cocktails that look to be made from scratch (not batched). You can also order classics off the menu or there are great scotches, whiskeys, even mezcal to drink neat/rocks. The vibe is chill and a bit upscale but not pretentious. There's a good mix of Norwegians, tourists, and expats who visit and it presented as a great place to meet people. We noticed some of the staff from other restaurants around town would come here for their after work drink if that tells you something. Special mention to Scout who was the bartender the several nights we visited. All around good guy who was very friendly with a great attitude. He also tends bar very well. He is efficient, quick, and attentive. I don't feel like I ever saw him leave people hanging waiting to order or for their drinks. Also Bella who was quite fun to talk with and made us feel right at home. Highly recommended!

This review is long overdue. We spent two nights in Eidfjord in September at a lovely AirBnB. Our…read morehost recommended this restaurant (only one of a handful in the town) so we checked it out on our first night, but it was closed. The note said they would be open the next day, so we called and made a reservation. When we got there on Saturday night, we were the only ones there at first. The restaurant used to be a house, and now the first floor is the restaurant/bar area, with a few boarding rooms upstairs. The week we were there was the last week they would be open until the spring, since it was the end of the tourist season. The server/owner was very welcoming and friendly. She told us she and her father own the place, and they renovated it a few years ago. The inside is beautiful, and really cozy and comfortable. There are a few dining tables in the back room, along with a lounge area next to the bar up front. There was no written menu--the owner just told us the two options they had for the night (a salmon dish and reindeer) as well as a soup and dessert. They also had two local wines and some local beer. The meal was delicious, and so peaceful. We sat next to the window, which overlooks the fjord. We could see the sun setting while we were eating. After we finished our meal, we were going to just go back to the AirBnB, but the server convinced us to stick around at the bar. There were two or three other people there, who were clearly locals who come in a lot. We had a few drinks at the bar before we called it a night. Overall this was a lovely experience, and I highly recommend it if you find yourself in this sleepy cruise town.

The food is absolutely delicious. We got the Ran, which is a fish soup dish. The soup itself tasted very much like a creamy Tom Yum soup, and the seasonal fish and mussels very fresh. The fish was a little on the dry side, but the foccacia paired extremely well with the soup. We also got the havamal, and the beef patty was very juicy and flavourful. The Viking plank seems to be a very popular dish, as it is a 5 course tasting menu paired with 5 different beers. Unfortunately we didn't get to try this one when we visited, but it looked great! The service is excellent. The waiter was very attentive, and took the time to split the soup to two bowls as he asked and we indicated that we would like to share it between the two of us. There isn't too much seating, so I can see that it could be crowded or difficult to find seats during peak season, so keep that in mind!

After our late arrival into Bergen we decided to eat some Norwegian fish dishes at Pingvinen…read more We arrived at the right time and got seated at the back table. Service was fairly quick. Menu contained a number of Norwegian dishes of seafood, meat (including reindeer) and vegetarian. We knew ahead of time we wanted to try the plukkfisk and gratinated fish pie. The pie was the best dish for us that night. It had a nice and creamy texture along with a crunch on the crust due to the frying. It was a light dish compared to the plukkfisk. The plukkfisk was quite heavy with this fish/mashed potato mixture and while the fried bacon added some texture it could've used a little more acid for our tastes.

The flavors were excellent and this was served with a side of fried potatoes, green beans along with a bed of creamy mushroom. The vibes from the Gen Z staff were lit too.

There is seating in the front, and a big dancefloor and some seating and tables in the back. It's not as noisy in the front, but this is definetly not the place to go for a quiet night out. I've only ever been on a DJ night, but it was awesome. My friends and I had a blast and there was a good vibe in general, although there were a few people that were all too drunk to be there. On Fridays and Saturdays you have to be 23 to get in, which is a big plus for everyone over that age that dislike the other typical dancing places in town like Metro, which is usually overflowing with drunk 20-year olds.

I would try one of their pizzas next time. A fresh pour of the pilsner on tap was the perfect temperature. They also had a nice locally made and bottled apple cider. Very friendly folks too! Asked about some advice in returning my rental car in Voss followed by a quick run to the train station and the owner called up his friend who works at Hertz in Voss who was willing to allow me to just drop my car next to the train station. I felt better to drop it at the Hertz location at 8am and he offered to run me over to catch my train at 9. Folks in Norway are amazingly kind! Tasty and Friendly, I'd be back here and recommend you give them a shot! Note their hours are pretty limited during the week. I think they closed at 6pm. but weekend hours were longer.
