HRC Stockholm, the attempt at offering plant-based alternatives in your menu is utterly pointless. Eliminate the façade of vegan options immediately to spare those with plant-based diets from the delusion that they might encounter anything remotely resembling restaurant-quality food. The vegan choices were nothing short of appalling.

To begin with, the vegan Moving Mountains burger was a joke; a desiccated gluten-free bun that appeared to have languished in a freezer for half a year (contrary to the misconception that vegans are universally gluten intolerant). The patty resembled something nuked in a microwave, bone-dry and unappetizing. The burger was bereft of any dressing or sauces, containing only a meager lettuce leaf, two red onion rings, and a slice of tomato. Not only was it astonishingly dry, but it was also conspicuously half the size of the regular burgers served to the rest of my party. Charging 229 SEK for this culinary insult is nothing short of audacious.

Next, the waiter suggested I switch my order after receiving the abomination of a burger. The vegan fajitas, the sole remaining option, proved to be an even greater disappointment. An oversized, flavorless salad with insipid guacamole and a feeble attempt at a stir-fry drowned in an excessive amount of oil and lemon juice. There was no discernible vegan salad or fajitas dressing. It resembled a mishmash of vegetables hastily plated as an afterthought to their meat counterparts. I left more than two-thirds of the plate uneaten.

When the time came for desserts, there were no vegan options available – a final blow in an already regrettable dining experience.

In conclusion, steer clear of this establishment if you adhere to a vegan diet. You'll depart as famished as when you arrived, and the disdainful encounter of being served such subpar fare will linger in your memory. This ranks among the most abysmal "vegan" dinners I've ever endured. HRC Stockholm misled us into reserving a table under the false pretense of being vegan-friendly.
