Oslo Restaurants

Many Oslo chefs have developed menus based on classic Norwegian recipes but with exciting variations, like Asian or Mediterranean cooking styles and ingredients. You may read about New Nordic cuisine on some menus. It combines seafood and game from Scandinavia with spices and sauces from any other country.

Spend at least one sunny summer afternoon harborside at Aker Brygge/Tjuvholmen eating in one of the many seafood restaurants and watching the world go by. Or buy steamed shrimp off the nearby docked fishing boats and plan a picnic on one of the islands in the Oslo fjord or Vigeland or another of the city's parks. Note that some restaurants close for a week around Easter, in July, and during the Christmas holiday season. Some restaurants are also closed on Sunday.

  • 1. Brasserie France

    $$$ | Sentrum

    As its name suggests, this wine bar is straight out of Paris: the long white aprons on the waiters, the Art Nouveau flourishes in the dining room, the old French posters on the walls, and the closely packed tables all add to the illusion. The sumptuous menu includes the classics: steak tartare, entrecôte, and duck confit. There is also, in true Gallic style, a strong wine list. Built on levels, from the cellar to the third floor, each section has a distinctive ambience. Popular with the after-theater crowd, the restaurant's kitchen offers a full menu until 10:30 pm on weekdays. Reservations are a good idea.

  • 2. Á L'aise

    $$$$ | Frogner

    This is the restaurant to visit on a dark, starry night when you need warming up with a candlelit dining room, five-star service, and fine French cuisine. Draped with heavy curtains, elegant linens, and buttery soft seating, it's a very fancy affair. It's famed for the confit du canard, prepared table-side with the utmost finesse. A passionate sommelier guides you through the Champagne region and beyond, while foie gras and oysters with gold caviar highlight this rich and decadent experience.
