Recension från i maj 2023 - men helt missat att skriva!

Har du inte varit på Lilla Ego kan jag bara säga en sak: gå dit!

Det är utan tvekan det mest prisvärda besöket du kan göra i Stockholm. Maten är otroligt god, personalen trevlig och hjälpsamma, lokalen mysig och allt du vill är att kvällen aldrig ska ta slut!

Som ni ser på bilderna smakar inte bara mat gott, utan är även upplagd otroligt vackert - en restaurang där du definitivt äter med ögonen.

Det är tyvärr svårt att få bord så se till att hänga på låset (dvs var beredd när tiderna släpps!). På sommaren finns möjlighet för drop in på uteserveringen vilket är ett hett tips.

Det är ju liiite dyrare här men.. knappt! Det är så bra.

Hit kommer jag tillbaka!

Little Ego!

I've wanted to go here for a long time, and it was really worth the wait!
The sauces! That's all I can say! Sauce!
If there is one thing they can do, it is SÅS. They are probably quite aware of it themselves too, because they come out with small, sweet spatulas when you are nearing the end of the meal. Absolutely fantastic. It was as if they could read my thoughts where I sat and scraped the plate with a fork and wondered if it was okay to use my finger to get the last thing up? (Of course, it's not okay to do that) But then the spatula came and you didn't have to think about those thoughts anymore. You got just ALL the sauce.

For starters I had asparagus with onion, spirit pea and parmesan. It was absolutely incomparable! Main course Pork belly with carrot, apple and nudja, which if possible was even tastier! And dessert at that. There was nice wine to drink. The staff was lovely, the venue cozy but nothing special (a rather anonymous entrance that we were close to missing). The music in the speakers was of course Kent. All evening. Perfect dinner music!

Will definitely go back!

The second visit, the new review. Was a bit disappointed at the first visit, as I said, then I think the food is not quite lived up to the hype. But this time ... wow, I just say. We shared the five dishes (3 starters, 2 main courses), which was on the verge of too much food, but we wanted to try as much as possible!

The service again. Awesome nice that this time sit at the bar and follow the show in the kitchen.

For salmon, lobster and hästtartar to the starter. The lobster was very good, and the other two world class. For the main course we took rensadel and chicken with deep-fried 63-degree egg. Even these two u. Knocked out. It doesn't get any better than this. As a whole, it is probably the best thing I have eaten in my entire life.

Finally, I visited little ego, and with sky-high expectations. And I was not disappointed. We had booked the last sitting in the matbren and were placed in the best seats right in front of the kitchen door.

Of course, we ate one dish too much, so unfortunately we didn't have the energy for dessert - but wow how worth it was.
We shared three starters and two main courses and everything was divine!
The starters were a tartlette with pork, turnips and chorizo which was my guy's favorite. My favorite was the chanterelles with carrot and lavender, which really tasted lavender in a delicate way. Or like this, we thought it was our favorites for the tuna with avocado, coconut and shiso came in - OMG so good. Absolutely incredible flavors.
For the main course, we shared a char with jalapenos, asparagus and pickled potatoes. After that we ordered another main course - a steak tartare with Jerusalem artichoke, rhubarb and ponzu, these too were absolutely incredible. The food here is truly world class.

For this we drank beer and champagne and enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere and the relaxed and professional service.

Was close to putting a 4 on this visit, as it was very hot in the room - so crazy. I felt most sorry for the people who worked there, but of course it also affects us. Even that we received a small fuzzy welcome. We were placed immediately but then it took 10min before someone greeted us, and when the service finally arrived, they did not tell us anything about the concept, if we wanted something to drink but asked directly what we wanted to eat. I had been looking forward to checking out the menu while sipping a pre-drink. However, this was saved up for the rest of the evening, and the food just does so I have to give this visit a 5.

I've finally been to Little Ego! The history books have claimed that people have actually managed to get a table here, but after many attempts, I have almost waved the whole restaurant away as a mythological entity that has ever made up, to keep people's hopes up. Hopes were incorporated.

The restaurant is small (20-30 seats?) which explains that it is difficult to book. Intimate, relaxed and charming. Nowadays you also bring quite a lot of drop-in into the bar and on the outdoor terrace so it is really worth taking a chance if you are flexible.

Reuses the piece above: the staff is fantastic, which explains that it is so difficult to book. Intimate, relaxed and charming. When we each ordered a beer before dinner, two chilled cans were conjured out of our pockets and just when we were asked if you could remove the chorizo oil (from the otherwise pescetaric dish), the waiter had time to explain that it is possible but is not recommended. Extremely experienced or some kind of black magic - 50/50.

And then there's the food. What to say? Literally thoughtful where you are often asked to include all the layers to enjoy each bite to the fullest. Ate a classic starter+main course+dessert and all were top class. Perhaps clichéd but throughout was that all dishes get everything: acidity, sweetness, fat, heat, ash, saltiness (dare I throw in umami?). Crispy, smooth, crunchy, creamy and all the things that you only appreciate when you experience it.

Be worried before that my white choice Little Ego would "only" be a stable four in grades but after the visit the fifth grade is clear. Top marks throughout. One of a handful of really good restaurants you feel it's worth coming back to several times a year without it feeling boring.

Underbara Lilla Ego! Jag brukar alltid säga att detta är min absoluta favoritrestaurang, men denna gång nådde de inte riktigt upp till femstjärnig nivå. Det är svårt att sätta fingret på exakt vad som drog ner betyget – kanske var det något med servicen, eller att maträtterna inte var lika smakfulla som de brukar vara. MEN, trots detta, kommer Lilla Ego alltid att ligga högt upp på min lista. Jag kan inte nog rekommendera denna restaurang, och ser redan fram emot nästa besök!

Oförglömligt! Äntligen, verkligen äntligen, blev det ett besök på Lilla Ego. Som inte bara levde upp till, utan överträffade förväntningarna.

Vi delade på två vegetariska huvudrätter, den ena med jordärtskocka och rabarber, den andra med friterat ägg, zucchini och brynt smör. Sangiovese till det + bröd med rivet smör och solrosfrön.
Allt var liksom orimligt gott? Hur kan mat smaka så perfekt, typ få en att känna såhär?? Till ett ytterst schysst pris också, med tanke på vad man får.
Men bäst av allt skulle jag ändå säga att servicen var. Kände mig så oerhört sedd och trevligt bemött av vår enastående servitör som verkligen gjorde kvällen extra minnesvärd.
Och att det är kent som spelas i högtalarna är en gigantisk prick över i:t.

Gick hem med både ett leende och en smak av brynt smör på läpparna, längtar redan till nästa besök.

Ja, vad ska man säga. Otroligt gott. Helt klart en av Stockholms bästa restauranger. Bra stämning, grymt trevlig personal och fantastisk mat. Varit här både på lunch och middag och det är alltid lika bra. Gå hit om du får chansen!

Knepet för att få bord på Lilla Ego är att boka på tolvslaget (24.00) då borden släpps, prick en månad innan du hade tänkt gå dit. Alternativt kan du ställa sig i väntelistan. Men om ett bord mot förmodan skulle bli ledigt gäller det att vara blixtsnabb - annars ryker det på en gång.

Little Ego is always the first recommendation when Stockholmers are asked "Where will I eat the best and get a wow experience on the palate".
I can only agree. Have last 3 years maybe been here 15-20 times and only it says some.
Enough about me.
Little Ego is the neighborhood restaurant that offers an encouraging unpretentious, stimmig, relaxed, personal and warm atmosphere.
The food, Swedish modern innovative that looks like a piece of art on the plate, flavors that massage the tongue (jeez sounds like pod My Dad wrote A, a) and flavours that is exciting. Shut up good is it.
Short menu, which is appreciated.
Over the years, however, I have noticed that the price level has increased, so the former price-friendly restaurant is now a bit more expensive. Is it worth it?, yes it is but if you should have starter, main course, dessert plus alcohol, so be prepared to burn holes in plank. BTW test their pickle shot
Reservations are 90 days waiting or you will be able to drop-in at the bar.

One of my favorite restaurants.
Good service.
There is a chambre Sepa that can be rented with a menu for private collections

Magically good! Top quality on short but magical ala carte menu. 30 seats. Relaxed and homely. Very popular so often several months of queue time for tables. However, drop-in places are available at the bar, so hope for the best.

It is just to stand next to anyone who celebrates the Little Ego, for it is fantastic! The food is amazing, the service top and unique interior. It is just as good as hoped. Are you also a bunch of/company, I can really recommend to book the cellar. Here you will be spoiled with delicious food and tableware.

Wow, that's really awesome, in every aspect. Absolutely sick good, service impeccable and the environment is nice precisely because it is not so made. When we were here for the first time, I was as impressed as today. Appetizer, main course and dessert, all were top 10. Unfortunately, I don't remember all the tastes, but they married each other well (our wedding day too). We took different wines for all dishes, recommended by the staff and also the delicious ones. Prices are really good on par with what is served. We'll be back, we're sure of that.

The room from the outside gives a very sober impression and you are met by a nice kid! Here the atmosphere is relaxed and familiar. Right now during Corona times, there is very generous space between the tables.

First in comes warm bread with grated butter topped with roasted sunflower seeds. Tasty and easy! We took their champagne which was very tasty. Next, I ordered the parsnip and Wilma chose the beetroot.
The beetroot was really sick, among the best I've eaten in the main course vegetarian. It had true WOW factor. The parsnip was good but did not reach nearly the same complexity and depth.

Then dessert that became baked chocolate cream and W took passion fruit sorbet. I'm a sucker for chocolate, peanuts and toffee sauce so my dessert was really a dream. Then being able to combine it with tasting fresh and tangy passion fruit sorbet broke it off in an amazing way. A magical ending at an already high level.

In conclusion, I just want to mention that the service was really among the better in Stockholm. Here it is cozy and the tableware tells and explains things with empathy.
The décor is quite rustic and the lighting is very warm. This in combination really creates a familiar and cozy feeling!

Clearly FIVE stars! My expectations for this place before the visit yesterday were about sky-high and maybe even a little higher than that. Thought before that maybe it would be so that the food and experience did not meet my expectations, but OJOJ! What a food, what a service, what a place to do! The appetizer made the hair on his arm stand up and the main course equally so. Recommend to everyone and already long for the next visit. Finally understand the hype and why it's so damn hard to book a table...
