This gourmet restaurant, located in the heart of Oslo's oldest neighborhood, is run by award-winning chef Bent Stiansen. A varied menu is available, compiled from the freshest and best available ingredients. The beautiful and stylistic 18th-century décor just adds to the restaurant's ambiance. The restaurant consists of five small rooms with an intimate atmosphere. The ceiling contains some of the finest stucco work in northern Europe. Guests must be suitably dressed (jacket and tie for men).

Boasting a fantastic waterfront location, Hanami is where you can expect to be served Japanese delights crafted from local Norwegian ingredients. An elegant space with an open kitchen and sushi bar, this restaurant offers you Japanese fusion cuisine. You can enjoy izakaya-style Japanese small plates like tempura scampi and edamame with your Geisha Martini, after which you can move on to scrumptious offerings like the signature scampi ceviche and miso-marinated black cod.

A gem in Oslo's dining scene, SüdØst brings an exceptional Asian inspired menu in a setting that puts most restaurants in Grünerløkka to shame. Housed in a historic building, with high vaulted ceilings, fireplaces and an outdoor terrace that overlooks the Aker river, this restaurant oozes with a sublime rustic charm. The menu borrows South East Asian culinary influences to bring out eclectic combinations like Grilled Rack of Lamb with Massaman, Sirloin Pasta and Asian Carpaccio. Besides the a la carte menu, there is choice of five dish set menus. The desserts deserve a mention and to say that the experience would be incomplete without trying the 'Tilslørte asiatiske bondepiker' should be enough.
