Good food, bad service. Seating was unclear. You order through QR code which was nice. They didn’t have what I ordered and paid for. He brought out a different drink and I asked if it was gluten free, he said yes. I looked it up online and it has gluten in it. The other waitress came over and I told her I couldn’t have that (I didn’t drink anything) and he said it was gluten free even though it’s not. She said it was not gluten free. However, she brought me out a gluten free beer (I did not ask for this) and made me pay for it. I didn’t want beer because I do not like beer. I would’ve ordered something else if I knew I had to pay again. It was a frustrating situation handled poorly because the other waiter came back and claimed we didn’t talk about gluten free (even though we did and my friend heard me ask and him confirm). I will not be returning.

Made a reservation for 8pm 31/12 after reading good reviews which was confirmed as the reservation was made that morning in the cafe however when we arrived at 8pm that night the cafe was shut. Our name and contact number was given at the time of booking but no effort was made to contact us to inform us of this. We called the cafe number after turning up but as expected no answer. Soon after I also messaged the cafe on Instagram which an automatic message was received to call the cafe. A response to the Instagram message was the received an hour later saying that due to short staff they decided to close early. Notification of this earlier closure would have been appreciated especially as many cafes and restaurants were closed on New Year, which is why the reservation was made. Very disappointed that this was our experience.

Sad update. What used to be a great place is now run by a crowd that really don’t deserve your money. Extremely sad to see a place I once almost worshipped go down the toilet. Look around. There are way better ways to spend your time close by. For those interested in what it used to be I have saved my initial 5-star review(s) below. Ever since I first discovered Café Sara some five years ago it has a special place in my beer marinated Oslo heart. It was here I stayed way too long discussing the bustling Norwegian beer scene with fellow beer knurds. I was drawn to the eclectic approach to food and beer. Glad to see they haven’t changed.

Popular place that didn't change too much over the years. Lots of beer sorts and when we had dinner we had the house red wine that was ok too. A bit extraordinary turkish-style food but as I am from Germany and know lots of such food places in Mannheim I was not too impressed. Also the prices are quite high for that amount of food. But of course this is Oslo and not Mannheim where they have dozens of such restaurants and it is more a pub with food that a restaurant. The waiters were very quick and friendly so all in all a place to come back.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDING THEIR AUTHENTIC NACHOS APPETIZER AND TENDER PEPPER SAUCE FILET MIGNON ACCOMPANIED BY PERFECTLY ROASTED POTATOES AND FRESH & CRUNCHY SALAD, THEIR PRICES ARE EXCEPTIONALLY REASONABLE! WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK TO SEE THESE WONDERFUL GENTLEMEN AND RELISH LIFE IN THEIR OUTSTANDING RESTAURANT.

The food was okay. We had fish and chips. The fish was a very greasy. The dip that came with the fries was very tasty. After we were done eating we went to the toilets. The toilets were very smelly and there were blood drips on the floor and wall. Not very hygienic. We wanted to let anyone know about the blood, but we stood there at the bar for 5 minutes and nobody looked up at us, they were ignoring us. So we decided to leave. I don't think we will ever comming back again and I won't recommend this place to friends and family.
