    Me and my friends are ballet dancers and we work at the opera. After our premiere we went to this club to celebrate. Out of NOWHERE and with NO REASON one of the security guards attacked me and took me to the outside area pressing my head against the floor with his knee screaming”you are out!!!”. It was terrifying and the club didn’t do anything about it.

    This is a warning to avoid this club! One of the security guards uses excessiv violence. He pressed me on the ground with his knee after he had randomly thrown me out with the reason that one of my friends was too intoxicated. He was not willing to talk but only wanted to use violence, it's a shame that I had no witnesses, otherwise and if I were from Sweden I would have informed the Police. What shocks me most is that this seems to happen regularly, after reading the reviews here, and the club does not seem to do anything about it. Be careful.

    I recently visited Café Ópera and was left thoroughly disappointed by my experience. The ambiance and design of the place had promised a sophisticated and enjoyable dining experience, but unfortunately, that promise was far from fulfilled. Firstly, I was taken aback by the unpleasant demeanor of the security personnel. The porters' attitudes were notably unwelcoming and their lack of courtesy was apparent from the moment I stepped in. It's disheartening when the very first interaction with a place leaves you with a negative impression. Moreover, the food at Café Ópera failed to live up to even moderate expectations. The menu may sound enticing on paper, but the actual dishes fell short of flavor and quality. It's disappointing when a supposedly high-end establishment can't deliver on the basic aspect of a dining experiencegood food. But what truly added insult to injury was the subpar service. Slow, inattentive, and unprofessional – these are the words that come to mind when describing the service at Café Ópera. It's a shame that such a beautifully designed place is marred by the lack of dedication from its staff. The waitstaff seemed disinterested and unresponsive, making the whole experience even more frustrating. In the end, my visit to Café Ópera left me feeling that the establishment is a far cry from what it purports to be. With unpleasant security personnel, disappointing food, and lackluster service, it's difficult to find any redeeming qualities that would make me recommend this place to anyone. The design might be impressive, but the overall experience is severely lacking. My advice: look elsewhere for a truly enjoyable dining experience.

    We come to cafe opera as three English people and two of us were refused twice on the grounds that we ‘weren’t sober enough’ but this is most likely because we weren’t Swedish enough. After eventually getting in I get a drink before being blanked by the bar staff and escorted out and given a quick boot out by a security guard who wanted to ‘talk outside’. We didn’t have a talk outside.

    Don’t go here as a tourist! They will refuse you without reason. We just arrived from the airport and were not allowed because we “were too drunk” although we we’re completely sober. Very strange situation.

    Small stocky bald security guard asked for a special handshake to let me and my friend in. We travelled all the way from London and we had reserved spaces on the guest list. The security guard did not let us in until we gave him a special handshake. This is very corrupt and unprofessional for a member of staff to take money from us and this is just disgusting.

    Good club and good musics. However, the worst bouncers and security guard I have met. They are disrespectful and they don’t treat you like an equal person. I had one friend come over from france and he was bad in english. The bouncers said he is drunk because he is not fluent in english and didn’t want to let us in. We tried to speak with them, they simply ignored us.

    (Translated by Google) Total disappointment. I was last here about 10 years ago. the outside is the best of all. Now techno is played and sophistication is forgotten. And I'm as neutral as I can now..or too old and nostalgic. (Original) Total besvikelse. Sist var jag här för ca 10 år sen. utsidan är det bästa av allt. Nu spelas techno och sofistikerat är bortglömt. Och jag är så neutral jag kan nu..eller för gammal och nostalgisk.

    This place should close out of shame. The DJ that played on 28th of October 2021 is the worst DJ I’ve ever had the misfortune of hearing. If you want a preview of his playlist listen to MAG 42: Grifter’s bone. Terrible, rotten, gutted. If you’re wondering about the atmosphere imagine the cheapest techno music you can think of.

    (Translated by Google) Incredible! Don't they know who I am? Do not really know where to start, that they make me, Göran 40 to stand in queue is under all criticism ... thought to burn more than what cafe opera on two weekends tonight but the guards do not seem to see who I am. Unbelievable. (Original) Helt otroligt! Vet dom inte vem jag är? Vet inte riktigt vart jag ska börja, att dom får mig, självaste Göran 40 att stå i kö är under all kritik... tänkte bränna mer än vad café opera på två helger ikväll men vakterna verkar inte se vem jag är. Otroligt.

    My boyfriend was physically assaulted by a security guard here. Thrown to the ground and pinned down by the guards knee and full body weight against his neck and head. Reading other reviews it seems this actually happens on a regular basis, with security guards using unnecessary aggressive and violent force, which from the descriptions and my own experience amounts to actual assault. The management seem complicit in that nothing is ever done and on social media platforms messages are just deleted.

    The club personnel acted racist yesterday night. I was kicked out with no reason provided whatsoever and treated like a criminal by one guy who pushed and hit me the way out. I think it is because I look Middle Eastern that they just make stereotypes here. It is really sad that a country like this still seems far from civilization. Never again will I visit this place or recommend it to anyone. Additionally, the line to enter at the beginning took one hour because the club was really slow in handling the jackets of guests.

  • 2/5 Keith S. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Anyone who thinks you should get company home, think again. Get there about 1:45 pm on a Saturday. After exchanging words with a medium-sized guard I come in and approach the bar. 30 minutes later, I am SEK 1800 poorer after inviting two Asian girls on long island ice tea. No, here you probably have to think about. One tip, maybe gate all the golddiggers and let in decent people. Just a thought. Sincerely Keith Aaron Svensson (Original) Den som tror att ni ska få sällskap hem, tänk om. Kom dit ca 01:45 en lördag. Efter ordväxling med vakt i medelstor storlek kommer jag in och närmar mig baren. 30 minuter senare är jag 1800 kr fattigare efter att ha bjudit två asiatiska tjejer på long island ice tea. Nej, här får ni nog tänka om. Ett tips, kanske porta alla golddiggers och släppa in hederligt folk. Bara en tanke. Mvh Keith Aaron Svensson

    Probably the worst club in Stockholm, although I can't say much cause the guards only let me in once. From what we experienced with my friends, there are too many people, you don't have the space to dance, and if you are lucky enough to get inside, be careful because you can be kicked out for no reason at any moment. I feel like each night the guards are discovering that young people like to drink alcohol during parties. PS : I almost freezed to death in front of this club when they wouldn't let me in, that wasn't very cool.

    Worst club in Stockholm that promotes to international students but the bouncers and security highly discriminate on internationals. Our experience, We ordered tequila shots and got a mix drink shot because they didn’t have tequila but forced additional bad shots to compensate and had security hound us to drink water every 10 min even if we were not drinking. International students avoid this place, it’s overrated, comercial, not friendly and doesn’t feel safe for internationals.

    This is a really expensive club and never have all the dancefloors open. The guards outside have some abuse of power, they deny almost everyone and you don’t feel welcome. If I were a tourist I would skip this club.

    Food was ok but not exciting, way over priced. very loud music which is ok, but no where to go and chat as music is same decibels all over the club. soul train evening and the music was 50%soul, the rest was 2000's, not very good DJ sl around slightly disappointing, would not recommend it for an A.W, but it's ok for just a night out. Drink and eat before you get there. not a big enough dance floor.

    The worst DJ ever (Anti Social Club something) - even a child with a Spotify account would perform better. No transitions, no genre longer than 1,5 songs, horrible "remix" effects. The staff was very rude and arrogant (especially the "ladies" at the entrance).

    Went for Christmas evening party and the drinks on the table was cleared without any notice eventhough the jacket was left on the chairs. It was said that it's a regular practice to clear the drinks but it was not in other tables. Could sense some uneasiness with the procedure as it wasn't a common one.

    Good club for maybe the little younger crowd. When I went it was not to crowded so maybe not the full experience but still they had dancers and stuff. Very expensive entrance and drinks lower the grade for me. Even though it's common in the area I felt I didn't get my money's worth.

  • 2/5 Amanda G. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Really poorly structured queue system, stood in queue for 1.5h after asking a guard if it was the right queue and received reply "that they were the right queue". After 1.5h when we were almost there, the guards yelled that we were wrong and would stand in the back again, so we went to another place. The queue pressed like never before and the guards stood at the front and screamed that we would stop pressing ... it feels more sensible to say it to those who are further behind. (Original) Riktigt dåligt strukturerat kö system, stod i kö i 1,5h efter att ha frågat en vakt om det var rätt kö och fått till svar ”att de var rätt kö”. Efter 1.5h när vi nästan var framme skrek vakterna att vi stod fel och skulle ställa oss längst bak igen, så vi drog till ett annat ställe. Kön tryckte på som aldrig för och vakterna ställde sig längst fram och skrek att vi skulle sluta trycka på...känns ju vettigare att säga det till dem som står längre bak.

    This club is a shame. Even if you paid to be on the guest list, at the entrance they want you to pay again. The guy He told me he is complexed about his bad life and he doesn't care about us. I think that's kinda unprofessional from them. A personal problem should not interfere in a professional task. For those reading this opinion, I can tell you there are so many night clubs better than this one in Stockholm with way better music. It's not that bad inside to be honest but no what you expect from a place like this. You should go somewhere else.

    Probably the worst place to go to in Stockholm! The service is amazingly bad and they even placed our group of 12 people outside (!!) during our New Years Eve dinner. We asked many times for tables inside or quilts but they only gave us bad comments of drinking more (of course). It’s a shame for that amount of money. Do yourself a favour and don’t go here!
