"translated_text": "We went there as a group after a That's Up event! The mood was at the top, and expectations for the restaurant were high. Many had tried to Google a menu but hadn't succeeded. The concept for our evening was 450 kr per person and a few mixed dishes would come in!\n\nIt started with large green olives, these were by far the tastiest of the evening. Charcuterie slices, a few per person, totally okay! Fermented beets - completely inedible, tasted only sour.\n\nThen came in asparagus with lardo, padrón peppers, broccoli stalks. Melted cheese with pistachios and honey, and yes, everyone loves melted cheese! The portions were small and the food was so-so, nothing new.\n\nGenerally the menu lacked protein/carbohydrates... it felt like a cheap menu compared to the price we paid. It lacked finesse and inspiration. The dishes served felt like side orders or starter. We all sat and waited for a main course that never came.\n\nFor dessert we got two half-melted scoops of ice cream, whose flavor I don't remember and it probably says something.\n\nI joined in and shared the red wine during the evening; this lifts the rating to a two. The red wine was right up my alley!\n\nService started well but fell at the end; I think the waiter sensed our dissatisfaction with the food and got stressed about it.\n\nWe were able to express our dissatisfaction to the chef of the evening, which resulted in a reduced price. However, it didn't feel like the critique was taken on board.\n\nIf you're on Södermalm and looking for places to eat? Go somewhere else."
