Where to eat French food in Oslo: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Reviews on French food in Oslo, Eastern Norway, Norway. The 1000-year-old Norwegian capital sits at the head of Oslo Fjord. This stunning setting gives hints of the wild wonders that lie just beyond the city. From taking in visual delights at Vigeland Sculpture Park, the Viking Ship Museum, the Munch Museum and Holmenkollen, to the challenging content within the new Nobel Peace Centre and the Holocaust Center, Oslo offers plenty of food for thought. The Oslo Pass allows free travel on public transport, free parking and many museum and sight admissions.

No candelabre anymore, and the gregorian chanting that made the place so special was gone this time. What a shame! Opened in 1992 and otherwise not changed over the years, but more noisy than before and assembly line before x-mas. No traditional x-mas food (yippi!) but trying a twist in the subject. Should stick to the normal menu which is fine. Kitchen deliver although small portions and not as warm ad it should (assembly line) poor service from unexperienced staff, but sure it is back to normal after the holiday. Get the chanting and candelabre bach with professional staff, and I will give full score next. Still worth finding. Large, but intimate at the same time. Booking recommended for weekends.

Astonishing food and nice presentation of it. Every dish in the five-course menu had something special to satisfy the taste buds. The service and staff is very nice and helpful. Only the atmosphere makes it worth a try. The wine map is one of a kind and makes perhaps one of the best in Norway. As it is a french inspired (which also reflects beatifully in the interior and atmosphere) restaurant the wine in cynosure is naturally french, ranging from several 1er cru Chablis to the famous and decadent Château DâYquem - for whites. For reds you can get a nice bottle of Château Haut-Bailly but also a good â85 Mouton Rothschild or even Echezeaux. They also have an impressive Champagne collection with vines like Cristal, Dom., and Jouët...All in all a very nice experience and nice restaurant that definately deserves a visit! Five stars, no doubt.Thank you very much for a nice review. Yes, we have a great wine list, you can test some other manufacturers on next visit. Hope to see you again

It is a fixed appointment for the whole family.One of the few places to satisfy both my vegetarian daughter and my carnivorous and always hungry son.All crepes (they would be considered palettes in France because of the dark flour used) are simply fantastic. High quality, fully flavoured and with top rated ingredients. Only two problems: difficult to choose and impossible to stop.

Ostebutikken is a tiny and cosy little restaurant with only about 12 tiny tables. The atmosphere is unique and is absolutely worth a visit. The Bresaola was good - so were the cheese. A gem off the beaten track. Its also possible to buy some of their products from a fridge.

Great restaurant. Cozy and stylish Atmosphere and design. Routinated Staff.Wide spectre of flavours. We had the seven course dinner set menu with champagne and a bottle of Les Grands chaillots Bourgogne 2013 Pinot Noir. It went perfectly with the food.Tesseron XO Cognac (House Cognac) with the dessert.Thumbs UP!

There are several restaurants in Oslo that make French style meals. However, something seems to be missing from many of them. Unexperienced staff, interior not right, too hyped, price/quality not right.In my opinion Chez Colin manages to get everything right, so right that you would think that you are in a good French village restaurant. The staff is nice and some of them are even French.Last time we were there we had a series of traditional French dishes including foie gras poelé, all of them nicely presented and accomanied by good wines. The only noticable drawback was that some of the dishes were a bit too salty.The ratio of price / quality is very good. I they get a Michelin star prices would probably increase so I hope they don't get it.

From the moment you enter, it is obvious youâre in for an extraordinary experience. Service is impeccable, discreet and personal. The atmosphere is elegant, welcoming and relaxed. We ordered the full tasting menu with the wine pairing menu, as I believe most customers do. Trust me, you canât go wrong. All of the dishes were stunning, and wine pairings perfect. Some of the dishes were so surprising, visually pleasing and well tasting that on several occasions my wife and I could do nothing but grin and laugh of pure pleasure.I have eaten in restaurant several times a week for many years all over the world. I can hardly remember a better experience, even in two and three star Michelin restaurants.With so many highlights, it is difficult to pick a favorite dish, but obviously the signature pasta dome must be mentioned. The lemon tart was also exquisite, but all of the courses were truly extraordinary, creative yet traditional and all made with craftsmanship which is scarce, unique and simply fantastic.It does not come cheaply, but is worth every penny.Hi TomasolhThank you so much for a wonderful review, and that you take you time to write it. We realy appreciate hearing from our guests.Looking forward to seeing you back.Kindly regards Jan and the team A Laise.
