Lio's Café Bar — Restaurant in Oslo

A Hidden Gem Worth Savoring

This restaurant is an absolute favorite of mine. From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by a staff that is nothing short of wonderful—charming, kind, and genuinely warm. Their hospitality sets the tone for a memorable dining experience.

The food is consistently delicious. Whether you're indulging in their perfectly cooked pasta, sharing a variety of tapas, or exploring other dishes on the menu, everything is thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. There’s a casual elegance to it all that keeps me coming back.

While there are a few cozy seats inside, the place truly shines when you can sit outside—right on the pavement. It feels vibrant and alive, making it the perfect spot to relax, sip a glass of wine, and enjoy the buzz of the street as you eat.

Highly recommended for a laid-back but high-quality...

Such a wonderful cute atmosphere—perfect for a low key cozy dinner, but I would go back any other time of day given the chance. The restaurant owner went through the menu with me and translated each item one by one because I don’t speak Norwegian which is just too sweet and thoughtful, I really appreciated it! I got the sweet potato lentil soup which was delicious!...

Great little coffee shop! Excellent coffee and perhaps the best sandwiches in Oslo served by very friendly staff.

Try the prosciutto and mozzarella sandwich on either home made Olive bread our on Sour dough. It's served with plenty of green salad on the side.

Everything served is home made and they serve some very unique...
