Grand Soleil — Restaurant in Stockholm

It has been a long long long time since I left a restaurant and left 80% of the food behind.

We went to the vegetarian options, croissant with scrambled eggs was tasteless and croissant harder than stone, and the truffle? Well it was supposed to be there somewhere, detectives couldn’t find.

Vegetarian Croque Madame was so greasy with oil literally dripping, and god knows why, but the salad was tasting fish! Every vegetarian paradise.

Let’s get some fries with truffle, it can’t go wrong you would think, again, oil, oil, oil and more mayo on top, not even crunch they manage to make it be. And the truffle, detectives are still searching for it.

Table setting was terrible, tables too close to each other and waiters almost dropping my glass trying to serve IN BETWEEN the tiny tables!

To finish, the music! So loud! It is a brunch! It can have music, and the dj, but soooo loud! We can’t talk or hear the table.

Classic tourist trap! Just don’t go! Worst place I have been to in...

If you want to enjoy a relaxed meal at the Grand Hotel without worrying about the price, I’d recommend it. But if you’re looking for somewhere with great value for money, I’m not sure this would be the...

Had the best experience of dining in Stockholm in the Grand Soleil. Tried the buratta salad, avocado salad, asparagus dish with poached egg, peas, greens and oregano, and Swedish strawberries and cream for dessert. All dishes were thoughtfully prepared with plenty of ingredients. The asparagus dish is on my absolute favourite’s list and had a very unique flavor while being rich in protein, greens, and fiber. I see this as an absolute win.

Both the outside and indoor dining areas were light, wide and decorated nicely. The waiters did not hesitate to give us a big table which could have been a problem for other restaurants.

One of the waiters did mix up our order on the first occasion, but it was quickly resolved and all waiters were nice and...
