Dinner and tasting menu at Coco & Carmen!
Both me and my company ate vegetarian, and I think they succeeded really well in adapting the menu.
As mentioned, the concept is tasting in about 15 servings including snacks and desserts, which we supplemented with wine packages. The food is pretty fine dining, the atmosphere relaxed, the service really good and the pace quite high. Simply really ambitious (and affordable) food but without a rigid mood! Good music in the speakers too!
Absolutely everything was delicious, good depth in the flavors and as a vegetarian I didn't miss anything at all. The only potential for improvement is probably the wine package: absolutely ok, but not wow. The wines were nothing extra and didn't really go hand in hand with the food.
But otherwise great!

There's been a lot of talk about Coco & Carmen and we have friends who think it's by far the best in town. I disagree, good - absolutely, but not the best. The price is nothing wrong, it's good for being a tasting menu of "11 servings". It starts well, all the small (they are very small) 5 starters feel luxurious with caviar etc, and are also very good, but then it goes downhill. The so-called slightly larger dishes were definitely not that much bigger and the desserts were not particularly fun, but that's a matter of taste. We chose to have drinks by the glass as the wine package contained drinks that are not really to my taste, like beer, sake... Good champagne, good wines and if the food had been a bit sharper, this would have given 5*.

Shibumi

18 December 2025

I used to enjoy the old Shibumi on Kungstensgatan so I got curious about trying this new edition. Then I got worried based on a few mixed reviews. I ended up positively surprised. I wish I could give the place a 4.5 stars as both the service and the food were delicious. We ordered a lot of dishes to share and were disappointed by none. Each serving was something new and intriguing. Not much in common with the old Shibumi but yummy. Perhaps a little less refined. Some of the dishes were on the small side (tofu where are you?) but others were good portions, completely shareable. The desserts sounded unappealing but again we were positively surprised.

So why not 5 stars? I think the atmosphere could still improve a bit. In the other reviews I heard it was really loud. That was definitely not the case when we were there (a Thursday evening); there was some music but we could hear each other well. On the contrary, it felt a little empty and a little messy. The toilet has beer kegs in it and we sat next to something that looks like a glass-walled wine cellar but it also serves as a storage room. I was also irritated by the lack of napkins. I get the ambition to create an “authentic” isakaya feel. But at this price point, I think I’m entitled to having a proper cloth napkin. Also, small detail, but they didn’t have any proper sparkling water. Only “Vichy” which is quite salty. What’s wrong with regular (free!) bubblevatten?

So all in all: good food, great service. 4 stars well earned. If I get a proper napkin, some nice regular sparkling water and the atmosphere perks up a tad, it will be a 5. I’ll be back to check soon.

Let's Malatang

26 June 2025

This was a very good experience! I'm not an expert in this type of cuisine but there were many Chinese guests, so I assume it is a good sign in terms of authenticity. This is the kind of place where you'll have to come a few times in order to know for yourself what combo of ingredients you like. There are so many options that it's easy to choose too many and then the soup tastes kind of funky! If you are a novice like me I would recommend choosing a handful of ingredients the first time and not go overboard with the quantity. I chose the spicy broth and it was really spicy - which was great for me! But if you are more sensitive you should know that this will burn! (kind of like Buldak noodles).
