Asylet - Oslo

Quirky little place stopped in for a couple of cold beers sat outside in spring sun in the courtyard. Great friendly barman did not eat but food looked nice. Inside is very cool would go back to try food. Loved the frydenlund juicy ipa very refreshing

We were recommended this place by our airbnb host as we wanted something 'Norwegian '. We walked into a packed place which had a very lively buzz. It was warm and welcoming and room was made for us at the staff table which turned out to be in a brilliant location. The two girls, Jasmina and Ulsa (sorry if the spelling is incorrect) were so lovely to us and made us feel very welcome. The food was just what we were looking for my son had the reindeer casserole and I had the trout. We left the place after a few hours having had a great night. Its the perfect place if you want to really relax and enjoy listening to the locals laughing. We enjoyed ourselves so much, we went back for another meal a couple of nights later.

Kafe Asylet is an institution in Oslo found in one of the really old buildings in Oslo/Groenland. They offer a menu mainly of different burgers and an average range of beer. Staff is service minded and athmosphere is intimate but the place is very noisy. Ok for an informal gathering with friends. Not a place for business meetings or anniversaries. Food is ok but far from gourmet. In summer the have a nice back yard. So informal gathering grabbing some beers ok. Dinner, celebrations or business I recommend going somewhere else.

We had the typical Christmas dinner (sheep ribs, pork ribs etc). Tasty food, good portions and the price was moderate for a Christmas dinner.

Well, We’re not often out but wanted to have a nice friday together after work today. This place is now on our NO list, and will be communicated as such to our friends and families due to the horribel staff working here. Shame on you !
