Lisa Elmqvist

Stockholm


Lisa Elmqvist is somewhat of an institution in Stockholm, famed for its fresh, gorgeous seafood dishes. Classics include shrimp sandwiches and a gravadlax plate, though it's always worth scanning the blackboard for the day's handful of specials. If you're undecided, trust the waitstaff's recommendations. Quality extends to the well-versed wine list.

The restaurant will remain located inside the temporary Östermalms Saluhall until summer 2019, when it is scheduled to return to its usual location, the historic market across the road.
