I simply love the feel of this place. A meal here is a journey to the past, accompanied by good service and great food.
Went here on a quiet tuesday night and really enjoyed the experience. Started with grilled norwegian lobster that was sublime.
For main I had the rack of veal. This was were they went wrong. To grill this delicate meat is a far too tough way of handling it, burning the fat and making rest of the dish tasteless. So, they changed their method of cooking and baked my veal in the oven, and it turned out perfectly! This is also a perfect dish.
For dessert I tried the baked Alaska. I have neved seen this dessert on a menu in Norway previously - and had to try it. Also very good!
Great experience to travel back in time here and enjoy super service, super wine pairings and great food! I will be back upon my next visit.

Amazing experience: beautiful room, very professional and attentive service(even though we probably looked like bums after touring around Oslo all day), delicious food, beautiful presentation. We were a family group of four out for dinner. Two of us were looking for vegetarian food with the other two looking for other things. The vegetarians ordered the only item on the menu that was vegetarian which was the Barley Risotto - it was probably the best risotto I've ever had. One person had the five course meal which was also amazing, and the fourth had the pan fried cod, also delicious. We also tried the baked alaska and hazelnut and both did not disappoint. The kitchen in this restaurant is on display which added to the overall experience - You could see and hear the cooking staff as they prepared the meals - all very skilled and professional. Overall this was one of the best dining experiences I've ever had.

I have written several reviews regarding our Christmas gathering at the Bristol Grill.
My Dry Martini became smaller ... but this is also the only complaint I have; the rest is just excellent.
I think this years LUTEFISK deserves to be certified "BEST EVER". I could not refuse to accept the second service of this delicious dish. It might be strange to foreigners, but the quality we were served last week was just top of the line.
Thank you very much for the delicious Lutefisk you served the members of the Oslo Hotel and Restaurant Association.

Been wanting to go to the Bristol for a while now and finally got the chance to. The staff were very polite and professionally presented. Service was faultless. I had beef carppaccio to start and lamb for a main. Everything was cook perfectly and presented brilliantly. I especially liked the white asparagus additions.
