Sjöbaren Lorensberg

We had dinner there on New Year's Eve and the experience was excellent. The food was very good and high quality. It was a set menu. We even asked for dessert to go and it was perfect. The waiters were very attentive, polite, and friendly. The place is cozy and beautiful.

Really delicious seafood menu, in a really nice setting. Felt like a fine dining establishment, but was one of the most affordable meals we'd had in Sweden. Definitely recommend to anyone in Stockholm!

Sjöbaren has always been one of my favorite restaurants in Gothenburg, and a must-visit on every trip. While I used to frequent their Haga outlet, I had the chance to try the Lorensberg location this time—and it did not disappoint. From the warm reception to the attentive service, everything about the experience was top-notch. One small but delightful touch I always look forward to is their complimentary bread with butter—simple, fresh, and delicious. Of course, the highlight for me is always Sjöbaren’s fish au gratin. It’s not only visually appealing but also packed with incredible flavor—easily one of the best I’ve had. If you’re a seafood lover visiting Gothenburg, I highly recommend Sjöbaren. It continues to live up to its reputation and keeps me coming back for more. Edit in September 2025: Tried catch of the day, COD fish in my recent visit and just loved it.
