The meaty, savoury, and fatty meatballs are small two-bite sensations that equip a space somewhere in the category of comfort food.

Mine were by far the nicest classic meatballs I tried in Stockholm, and the Deluxe Plate was a delicious twist.

Traditional restaurant that serves one of the best Köttbullar. Served with an insanely creamy and buttery potato puree.
