Review of Stortorgskällaren – by Katarina D.
This text has been translated automatically.
The room is very cozy, warm and welcoming. Dim lighting, comfortable chairs and sofas.
The service is extremely slow. We were alone in the room for about 2 hours, no other guests, yet the service was inattentive and a bit impersonal. Felt a bit like kids on work experience
We came here via The fork with a 40% offer and thanks to that the dinner was good. Otherwise, if you were to pay full price, it's probably a bit overrated for food that is so mediocre that Stortorgskällaren could be poster-child for the word lagom.
The steak tartare was a mammoth portion but nothing stood out. Every bite was equally monotonous and if you need a kilo of mayonnaise to "highlight" the flavors, well then this is a problem.
One of the party chose the pot... Apparently, it was completely unseasoned. She used half the salt shaker to bring out any flavors at all.
Actually, the place gets a 2 considering hubris and overpriced. But the venue and ambient saves.
Would I recommend the place, even with a 40% discount? Not really, but considering that there are so many more places with lousy food, Stortorgskällaren is at least good enough even if the next day you will forget completely what you ate
