Stortorvets Gjæstgiveri Review

Nice place with good food, the service was impeccable n

Great food and laid-back atmosphere on old-time premises

Lutefisk dinner with watery fish and lukewarm teasing from bag :(
Not much to brag about there in the house. Pleasant service does not help when the food is so bad. There are many other places to eat good Christmas food!

The food is good, there are a lot of guests, you can have a meal after the street, take a rest

They said that it's closed 1 hour before the official closure time

Eaten a lot of Christmas food here and always been happy with the food, service and staff is another matter.

Was almost scammed for three pussies. Wonder how many they are fooling. Christmas party season. People just pull the business card without checking.

Have eaten my last meal here.

Ate here a while ago. Biggest disappointment I've ever had. The food was dry, the meat was cold and the cheeses were so old that they tasted strange and chewy. This at an overpriced price.

No thanks, never again

Great friendly service and great atmosphere. Lots of history in the walls

Ate a very good three course of fish in a big company

Start with an endless queue to allow the outerwear to hang. Tasty appetizer that was tasteless gravy, worst stick meat ever, was chewy, salty and dry. Forgot to water out then? Dessert was tasteless ice cream with dry and hard chocolate cake. Definitely not recommended.

Good food and good atmosphere. Suitable for both lunch and dinner.

Authentic food, great for groups, good value, good service. Our guests had a great time.

Nice and old, lovely house, expensive prices for little - but very good food

Was here at Christmas table. Very good food, but the noise level here was bad.

November 2016.
I found this restaurant highly recommended on the internet and then I asked on the street and 2 people told me this was a very good option. The service since I entered was excellent, several waiters waiting for what we needed and a Brazilian waitress who came to tell us the history of the place and the ingredients of the dishes and give us recommendations. The food was delicious (said by a Mexican food lover), in 2 weeks through Norway from north to south, this was my favorite restaurant. A little expensive, but worth it. In my experience, highly recommended. Hopefully it continues so good.

Great atmosphere great food.
Have a jazz band here on every Saturday.

Have been here now 75 min without getting the food served. Waiter unable to answer spm when can we expect to get it and is empty of most drinks at 12 noon !. Andri mer

Best place in Oslo for traditional christmas food! Fantastic athmosphere.

Was there and ate overpriced Christmas plate and unfortunately received non-existent / poor service.

Good food oozed nice place to be, not least exciting

Only one item from the four that I have ordered from the menu was of noteworthy caliber namely the scallop appetizer it matched the menu description & it had the quality level vorthy the price on the menu
I follow up by the soup and that turned out to be a overpriced disaster
The risotto with the garlic, is only fiction of gastronomic imagination fortified by some devious salty seasoning.
Finally the sorry desert choice of cream Brule with seasonal berries
a real disaster not reflecting the astronomical price for this desepointment .
Service was also very Scandinavian
(Looking for a waiter)?
Interesting noteworthy interior with great deal of character that is a fact but not much else going to be there for.

Very good stick meat and they are good at carrying out Christmas tables

Scalloped lemon fish, deer not quite so good. Slow slowness at big Christmas table ...

Great hosts, nice bar people and always great atmosphere!
