Grill - Haerjedalen

Grill is a quirkily decorated steak place in central Stockholm. Despite the eclectic furnishings, the actual menu is pretty standard and will be familiar from other steakhouse type places. The menu selection is quite broad, although the set of appetizers didn't have a lot of appeal for our group. There were several things in the main section that I wanted to try. Cost is pricey as one might expect for a steakhouse. Service was mixed. It sometimes took a while to find a person to help and everything didn't come as fast as we'd like, but the actual order was delivered well, and everyone's food was hot and correct. At all times the service was polite and friendly. Food quality was good. Meats were great. Sides were ok. I had the smoked pork belly bites (great, but too little! , and the lamb (very good . My wife had the lobster appetizer (great but a bit big for a starter , and a steak (good . They brought a variety of potato sides (though surprisingly only one was on the menu which were fine, though the fries were disappointing. Overall, this was a good place I would return to, but not amazing. I wish the menu had been a bit more unusual and lived up to the decor.

Here at Yelp I saw pitcures of 5 tuna bites. I got 3. I also got overcharged for the wine on the bill. The bill had a post with same name of both my German and a French wine Riesling Huger ? They charged for the more expensive.

My sister and I came for dinner without a reservation and we were seated quickly despite the restaurant being busy. This is probably the quirkiest restaurant I've ever been to. The music was trendy and the decor was interesting. There were mannequins wearing lingerie, carriages, a random shark and birds hanging from the ceiling. The complimentary bread basket was good. My sister and I shared the grill plate and all the meats were delicious! The sauces were great as well. My favorite meats were the chicken and the steak and my favorite sauces were the barbecue sauce and the saffron sauce. The grill plate comes with fries and I liked dipping them in the saffron sauce which was mayonnaise with saffron.

Grill a place that deserves its name. Here you 'll walk around among glowing coal, flames and rotisseries. Word of warning: The place is just a tad bit overrated. It 's a solid 4. The dining area is divided into several sections, each with their own distinct style like the orient express or moulin rouge . So come back again, pick a different section and food and it 's a whole new experience! Sometimes they even have live music! The atmosphere is, needless to say, fantastic. This is a good place for both groups and dates. I 've been here several times and food ranges from good to phenomenal. There 's been the scallops that were way too salty, and the order of rare meat that didn 't come out rare at all (seriously, how can a place called Grill fail at that? But the waiters/hosts are extremely forthcoming and helpful, so don 't hesitate to bring up your concerns. I sent my not so rare steak back and got a new one that was indeed rare.

Summary: great main courses (beef and tuna), slow service, ok dessert Dinner with colleagues and an invited trainer/speaker, 9 pax. Reservations at 8:30. We arrived 15 minutes early and were told to wait in the bar. All but 2 got to sit in sofa and armchairs around a table. No attempt was made to offer us anything to drink. A few minutes late we were taken to our table. We got a nice and secluded table in the corner of the restaurant with a very acceptable noise level. Grill has a very special interior design which is very cosy and beautiful; kind of a personal living room. I was the only one to order a starter. I had grilled seafood Peruvian style. It was served in a bowl within a bowl of ice so I was a little bit surprised that the mini octopi, pieces of squid and fish were quite warm. Except for the lime and cilantro I don't really know what was so Peruvian about it, but it tasted really nice and the texture of the seafood was good, perfectly grilled. I had the top blade steak for main course. I have ordered it rare but in my opinion it was more medium rare than rare. Good bearnaise sauce and french fries. There were also other condiments like need wine gravy, potatoes and a salad, but I didn't try them. The steak was tender and juicy. One of my colleagues had the Teppanyaki Tuna where you get to fry the tuna yourself on a lava stone. It looked awesomely delicious and I almost wished I would have had that the deep fried sushi making condiments made me want it even more. Next time maybe. For desert I had the cheese. They were OK, four different kinds in small pieces with some really good sourdough toast and a marmalade. None of them really stood out. The waiter didn't tell us what kind of cheese we we're served. Service was OK, but definitely not top notch. They remembered our lactose free order but had some trouble serving the right food to the right person. We had to wait almost an hour for the main course and no excuses were made, which isn't acceptable. They were a bit pushy on selling more wine and there was some confusion here and there. Also, not presenting the cheese is a big minus. All in all we had a great time with great food and I would definitely ho here again. If the service and waiting time improves I would consider raising the rating to figure five stars.
