It is not possible to give something else a best ever. Flawless service and fanatical food

In a small room in Vasastan, the santa glosses scent is dense. Someone has just celebrated their birthday. A short, fun menu and a happy hello in the door. Expectations are high for this hyped tavern. In addition, Tom Sjöstedt is a big favorite, in life and on the cookbook shelf. Me and my company order Roe for 2 people (SEK 235 p person), Turbot with savoy cabbage, cucumber and barbecue mayonnaise (SEK 345), Clean with mushrooms Jerusalem artichoke and pepper (SEK 325), Sea buckthorn ice cream with brownie and chocolate ganache for 2 people (SEK 135 p person) and an Apple ice cream with ginger, spruce shoots and butter-browed crumbs (SEK 135).

So why don't I love Little Ego? All dishes, including dessert, have an all too tangible saltiness. First bite, very tasty, a whole plate? No. Raw materials are overpowered by salt and butter, which means that they do not come into their own. Maybe this was an extra stressful day, my company testifies that it has been better on a previous visit, but in all honesty, when a griddle with raw rockets costs SEK 470, I expect more. The dishes are beautifully decorated, and that in itself creates hopes for balance and thoughtful flavor combinations, which I unfortunately don't feel are delivered at this point. Like the apple ice cream dessert, for example, where spruce shoots and small ginger pieces (both very sharp flavors) run over the mild apple ice cream.

Other curiosities: The waiter spills the table neighbor's wine on another guest, doesn't apologize, and then waits 20 minutes before replacing it with a new one. My party asked for an extra slice of bread for their bowl of butter while waiting for the food, the waitress replies "only one per person". Personally, I thought the dry piece of bread was reminiscent of an SJ roll.

Will most likely give Little Ego another chance, below reviews suggest that there is more to be gleaned here.

But then - wow wow wow! Everything is magically good, but if I have to choose, I recommend the raw radish with roe for starters, heeelt incredible!

One of the better restaurants in Stockholm. Hard to get a table, but worth a visit. A hidden little gem. Small and charming with a unique menu. Don't miss roe & raw rake for starters.

After trying to get a table for 3 years (!), I finally managed to fix a late Friday night. If expectations were high? Soaring. If they meet expectations? Yes, and even more! We ate three course and put the most and ' mmm '-ed all the time. The waiters were personal and light-hearted, which chimed in with the whole place. Half the menu sat carelessly uppklistrat on the walls, which only contributed to a more unique experience.

Now we just have to keep my fingers crossed that it does not wait another 3 years before I get the table again.

WOW. So wow. I'll never forget that noble cabbage! Drunk my tastiest bubble of life here over a game of "4 in a row".

Incredibly good food, fantastic presentations and nice service. The food is on the more expensive side - we paid just over 1800 for two people. But it's so worth it! Recommended!

One of Stockholm's best places in my opinion. Good food, nice service and cozy relaxed atmosphere. During one of the visits, I drank a dessert wine that was like velvet in my mouth. You always feel just as welcome, noticed and at home. World-class!

I so wish Little Ego was the only place I ever ate.

Absolutely the best restaurant in Stockholm (maybe Sweden) right now if you want to eat really good and well-balanced food with a tweak. Super lovely service with "a pat on the back" standard that makes it familiar and pleasant while keeping the food at an extremely high and qualitative level.

A neighborhood gem that gets 4.5 stars from me. In addition to really good food with exciting flavor combinations, the service always delivers on top. I ate an appetizer with tuna, coconut foam, wasabi and cauliflower that was so good that we had to take in two of it. Something that is happy to improve is the range of better wines by the glass. Go here!

Little Ego, such a convivial and simple venue with focus on finer home cooking. Once you get a table here, then inside you it does not. The inside tables 90 days in advance and you have to be quick to pinch a table. They change their menu according to the season and we can turn an eye on slate with daily specials. Let the chefs recommend, I promise it will be good! Both fish and meat are well-prepared here and you will not be disappointed 😃

The city's cruelest doldis? Reserve a table in advance and prepare yourself for one of your best meals ever! Unpretentious and pretty narrow local but awesome flavors and wonderful staff!

Can only agree with the previous speaker. We ate some kind of grill-mix with different types of meat and lots of good accessories. Grilled Duck!
