4.5-star flavors, 3 star portions. Me and my partner took 3 snacks, 2 starters, 3 main dishes and 2 drinks to get full. As for the flavors, in general it is an outstanding place with creativity, but there are still some parts that can be improved. Highlights: *The plates were very warm when served warm dishes. *The beef tartar was creamy and the waffles were crispy, the texture combo is a delight on the teeth. The ramsons and capers combined perfectly with the fresh cheese, and the aroma pleasantly mixed together with the butter from the waffles. *The oyster is a must try. The seasonings were not strong ans they have preserved the original flavor of the oysters. *The honey lavender butter with the warm bread can be used as a dessert if you don’t want too sweet stuff. Things that can be improved: *The duck meat’s original scents were totally removed, you can barely taste the duck in the dish. Plus the purée served on the side was too greasy and salty, I mistakenly thought it was chilly mayonnaise. *The cocktails were plain in flavors even though we could feel the bartender put a lot of efforts in...
Read moreIt’s my third time dining at animo, it has pro and cons but I decided to give my review after I tried all mains and all snacks. Great staffs and warmly service. Ostron and Boquerones are best snack in my opinion 10/10, the ostron is actually the best we had in Stockholm. Biff tartar is served with heart shaped waffles 9/10. Citrusgravad hälleflundra in green curry and coconut cream was surprisingly refreshing, it’s not so curry in mind that’s heavy for the tastebud but rather light and elegant to try, 10/10. The unsatisfactory part was actually the mains. I think the snacks and förrätt is the highlight but the mains didn’t gives the kickass finish for all my experience. I know the mains helps animo to get many awards, but it didn’t meet the expectations. A lot of thought was put into the innovation and presentation of the main course, however, the taste did not exceed or reach the level of the appetizers, which is a bit disappointing. Some entrees had too many flavors paired together without a perfect blend. Looking forward to try more main courses when they...
Read moreAn amazing dinner made better by the spontaneity of it all. We had no idea what to expect but liked that Animo had a high rating so walked in on a Friday at 5:45pm. We were immediately seated and felt like we had won the lotto. The vibe of the restaurant was energetic, friendly, and polished. We had high hopes for a nice experience and they were met.
Our servers were amazing! So friendly, knowledgeable, and funny. The food was inventive, delicious, and nicely portioned. The cocktails were creative and they offered many in a non-alcoholic version too.
Small details kept me smiling and showed their desire to give their guests great service during their meal while delivering a less than formal atmosphere. Wet wipes discretely placed at the table and deftly removed as soon as they were opened and used. Toothpicks delivered equally as smoothly nearing the conclusion of your meal.
We had the oysters, hashbrowns, steak, and sea bass - all were amazing. If we lived in Stockholm instead of Switzerland we would be frequent...
