Review of Brasserie Astoria – by Adam L.

Edit Apr 2023: Been here many times now. Even though I still don't get floored food-wise, it's better than in the beginning. But I don't think the idea is to be floored. It's a brasserie. The whole thing is just absolutely incomparable so I raise the rating to 5 now. Super nice no matter lunch, brunch or dinner.
Edit Feb 2022: Has been two more times lately. Both times at brunch. Think my review above still fits pretty well on my experience. The food is good, but not a sensation. However, the place itself is a sensation. And the prices really high (but justified given the overall level and pressure on bookings).
Original review: The place itself is ten points. Food-wise, I probably expected a little more. It's a brasserie, so it shouldn't be fine dining, which I like, but it could have been tastier anyway. Hope they sharpen the flavors somewhat, so it can be full pot next time. The prices are high, but I wouldn't have expected anything else.
Either way, this is guaranteed to be one of Stockholm's hottest restaurants in the next few years. I'll be back soon!
