Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A busy looking, small restaurant which luckily had a table for us as we wandered around on our first night. The staff were very friendly and recommended good food and wine, the food was delicious and a great taste of Swedish cuisine.

Perfect lunch! Order your entree of choice at the bar, pay, get your salad, bread, water, tea and coffee on your own and they bring your main dish to the table. Meatballs were delicious as was a fried white fish fillet. Very friendly staff.
