    Outstanding modern Swedish food in an intimate setting. Lively little side street tucked into old town, serving modern twists on traditional Swedish dishes. Starter- smoked reindeer. Really nice chunky pate, a little rich perhaps but delicious. Main course- pork stuffed potato dumplings with lingonberries. Really really tasty main and deceptively filling. Shared a rhubarb crumble desert which was, hands down, the best restaurant desert I've had in years. Bill came out super reasonable at around 120 SEK for the 4 of us. Absolutely would recommend and will go back the next time we're in Stockholm.

    Delicious Swedish food! Brinken is a restaurant located in the old quarter of Gamla Stan. The decoration is warm and neat, the welcome reflects the decor. The manager Kamille is friendly and very professional but above all provides good advice. We recommend reindeer stew, cooked at low temperature. Thank you for this excellent dinner!

    This is a quite small restaurant, its located in on a calm street in the old town. The feeling is a small cottage up in the swedish mountains. The food based on swedish cusin and served with local brewed beer.

    Small cosy place with friendly staff. Service was quick, food was good but not much to choose, from the menu. We had 3 kinds of hering for starters( really good , allthough it was not prepared in house) and reindeer stew( i am still having mixed feelings about it-good taste but the meat seems to be minced meat and not pieces of meat with muscle fibers). Located close to the Christmas Market in the Old Town.

  • 5/5 Елена �. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Tasty, large portions. We arrived at 5 in the evening, there was nobody. If you plan to come later, it is better to book a table. (Original) Вкусно, большие порции. Пришли в 5 вечера, никого не было. Если планируете прийти позже, столик лучше забронировать.

    (Translated by Google) It was nice to have a bar table where you can taste Swedish food by yourself. There was also a craft beer in Sweden, so it was good to eat with the dishes and the staff was friendly. (Original) 혼자서도 스웨덴 요리를 맛볼 수 있는 바테이블이 있어 좋았어요. 스웨덴의 크래프트비어도 있어서 요리와 곁들여 먹기 좋았고 스탭들도 친절했습니다

    (Translated by Google) The restaurant was super good, I tasted a salmon with superb cooking, alcohol level it is expensive and classic, but the meal is well worth it (Original) Le resto était super bon, j'ai dégusté un saumon avec une superbe cuisson, niveau alcool ça reste chère et classique, mais le repas en vaut vraiment le détour

  • 2/5 Jarand U. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Worst tourist stairs. Felt a bit mass produced. Edited: How about offering some other standard baking rolls, but a cold butter pack. And have accessories that fit, and not the same accessories for all dishes. Therefore, it felt mass produced. The dishes themselves were perfectly ok, but not impressive in taste or form. But a very nice room. (Original) Värsta tourist trapen. Føltes litt masseprodusert. Redigert: Hva med å tilby noe annet standard bake up rundstykker, men en kald smørpakke til. Og ha tilbehør som passer til, og ikke det samme tilbehøret til alle rettene. Derfor det føltes masseprodusert. Rettene i seg selv var helt ok, men ikke imponerende i smak eller form. Men et veldig hyggelig lokale.

  • 2/5 Elad A. 4 years ago on Google
    Service was polite and friendly, I have no complaints there. And the food was decent. But there was a very strong odd smell in the restaurant that detracted from the experience immensely for me. If we were random walk-ins, I'd have immediately walked out; however, we had made a reservation, so I felt compelled to stay.

  • 3/5 Sara-Stina B. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Great food, good music, good price and nice staff. Nothing fantastic though but okay for the price which is still pretty good considering the location. (Original) Bra mat, bra musik, bra pris och trevlig personal. Inget fantastiskt dock men okej för priset som ändå är rätt bra med tanke på läget.
